If David doesn't win this, well then there's something wrong!
It could be me but the other 2 artists, I've never ever heard of them!
You rule David, go get that prize and make sure we'll see some nice new pics of you!!!!

I really don't get it how on Earth does a band like Girls Aloud get the idea to issue a live album? How the hell should that sound.moom wrote:Girls Aloud are a pop band that sucks
If David doesn't win this than there's no justice in the world of music. Unless it's a live DVD competition.

Ah, their hormones must have gone into overdrive for them to pick Girls Aloud Still, it's a pity David didn't win.
