Rather than create a Twitter thread this year, I thought it best to collate my Grammy Awards 2022 predictions here where I have written thousands of words about this award show before. There’s some commentary with some of the categories, but don’t be expecting much of this to be at all accurate, my track record …
With 76 singles to her name and counting, I simply couldn’t do the career of Madonna justice in a top 10. A week before her MDNA Tour arrives in the UK I take a look at my top 20 singles by the Queen of Pop. 20) Open Your Heart – True Blue – 1986 Let’s … Continue reading
Like it or not, X Factor is a big deal in the UK music market. The biggest entertainment show on TV is the best place for an artist to promote their music, a performance spot on the Sunday night can take you from mild success to household name within the space of 3 minutes. Now … Continue reading
