Mercury Music Prize 2008

Who do you think will win this year ?

I think either Elbow, Neon Neon, Burial or Laura Marling will win, it used to be the more obscure bands would win but in recent years that has changed.

Adele 19 8/1

Those above are the only ones I like. Haven't really had a good hear of the others.

I like Laura Marling and the Neon Neon album is excellent.
