So...lets hear which your songs, records and videos of the year are...
. RE: Song, Record & Music Video Of The Year : 2010 - groundnpound - 15-12-2010 15:10 2010 for me has been about the return to greatness of the worlds greatest Rapper Eminem.I've been a huge Eminem fan since he burst onto the scene in 1999 and his new Album Recovery is one of his best to date. Nominated for 10 Grammy Awards this year. I hope he wins them all. My Song of 2010 - Eminem - Not Afraid My Album of 2010 - Eminem - Recovery Recovery is the seventh studio album by Eminem, released June 18, 2010 by Aftermath Entertainment and Shady Records. The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 741,000 copies in its first week in the United States. This made Eminem the first artist in Soundscan history to have four albums debut with sales of over 700,000. It became Eminem's sixth consecutive number-one album in the US and topped the chart for seven weeks. It also achieved international commercial success, charting at number one in several other countries, and produced three singles that achieved chart success, including the Billboard hit "No Love" and international hits "Not Afraid" and "Love the Way You Lie". Despite some criticism regarding its consistency, Recovery received positive reviews from most music critics. The album has sold over three million copies in the US. It received ten nominations at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards including Album of the Year and Best Rap Album.Recovery was named as the best-selling album of 2010.

There were a few that could have won it, by no means all of them released this year. This was the year I discovered France Gall, so there could have a bunch of 60's Gainsbourg related stuff, I've recently begun to get very into the UK hip-hop scene after the slow, excruciating demise of the US rap and hip-hop scene so there were any number of songs I could have chosen from that end of the scale, but in the end it came down to a straight choice between two songs actually released this year. Stay too Long, by Plan B from his excellent concept album The Defamation of Strickland Banks, or the happy go lucky, French influenced electro-pop anthem Bang, Bang, Bang from Mark Ronson's album Record Collection. In the end, I chose Bang, Bang, Bang because it still makes me turn up whatever device I'm hearing it on, as well as the fact it contains a guest spot from Q-Tip, my favourite rapper, that's actually an integral part of the song, as opposed to the brief one-flow-cameo rappers usually have in songs of this nature. Record of the Year This is a seriously tough one. There have been a whole bunch of good albums, both new and newly discovered by me, including the above mentioned Defamation of Strickland Banks by Plan B and Record Collection by Mark Ronson and The Business intl., as well as Swanlight by Antony and The Johnsons, Only Revolutions by Biffy Clyro . Then there's stuff I've only recently discovered like Sleigh Bells, The Noisettes, Florence and The Machine and Cee Lo Green (He counts as a discovery, since I only knew from Gnarls Barkley previously). The winner is a rediscovery, though. When I was cleaning out a bin bag a few months back, I found a few cassettes, including JJ72's self titled debut album, Expecting to Fly by The Bluetones and Bernard Butler's magnificent People Move On. The winner is Bernard Butler's People move on. Twelve years after release, it's still an album of incredible scope, amazing musicianship and high quality song writing. Not even Butler's, let's be brutally honest here, mediocre vocals can detract from it. To illustrate my point, the single people are most likely to remember from it, Not Alone. Video of the Year I was tempted to go with so many different videos, including Sleigh Bells' Infinity Guitars for its sheer dedication to attitude and style over substance, Biffy Clyro's God & Satan, because I'm a country bloke myself but on my few visits to the Scottish Highlands I've half expected to run across scenes like that in every Glenn I entered, Wiley's Wearing my Rolex, for its excellent use of attractive young women dressed in fox costumes, Dizzee Rascal's Sirens, because I'm a bit of a class warrior at heart and everything about the video appeals to me and Muse's Uprising, because it has a giant fanged teddy bear destroying a city with lasers from its eyes. In the end though, I chose Die Antwoord's Enter the Ninja, because watching the video I can't tell if he's joking or deadly serious and a truly terrible rapper. I haven't checked out any of his other stuff, as I don't want to find out one way or the other... RE: Song, Record & Music Video Of The Year : 2010 - Phoenix - 16-12-2010 00:10 Song of the Year – Chiddy Bang – Opposite of Adults Relatively new duo from America (although they’re more popular over here) and I think this was their first single from the album The Swelly Express. Not sure if it’s classed as a cover version of MGMT – Kids but its sooo catchy: Record of the year – Kanye West – My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy Tough one to call, but I think Kanye just nicks it for me (and also seeing as groundnpound has already said Eminem – Recovery ![]() Some of my favourites from it: Hell of a Life Catchy chorus sampling the melody to a Black Sabbath song : All of the Lights Features Rihanna, Elton John, Fergie, John Legend, The-Dream, Ryan Leslie, Tony Williams, Charlie Wilson, Elly Jackson, Alicia Keys, and Kid Cudi: Dark Fantasy Devil in a New Dress Video of the Year– Kanye West – Power Couldn't really think of a great music video from this year off the top of my head to be honest, but while banging on about Kanye West I remembered this video which is pretty unique: |
