But it's not pressed in red, so they buy The Lurkers instead

I was going to write something this evening. What was it ? Stuffed if I know.

Instead I shall point out, to anyone that missed it, that the BBC has provided a very fine page (with playable tracks, if you can handle BBC audio) detailing their predictions of who's hot in the music world for 2006.

See what you think.

Let me know if you're backing any of them as go-ers for this year. Personally, I'm really rather liking the Guillemots track - a good tune, a brass section and a theremin. What more could you want ? I must hunt out what else they've done.

For comparison, here's a page about how well the BBC's predictions went last year.

Right. I still haven't remembered what I was going to write about, so I'm off to bed. G'night.

Well, the only one I have the slightest interest in is Corinne Bailey Rae. Even that would require someone to actually write a good song for her. Good sound, though.

Bea liked the Guillemots.

Ryan liked the Automatic (of whom Bea's review was "Stop ! Stop ! There's too much music and it's too loud !").

But if we're supposed to be guessing which of these is going to do well, my top tip is The Feeling. They've got that tedious Travis/Coldplay drone thing going on. The kids love that.

The kids love that.

I presume that's the canonical kids, as I sincerely hope yours in particular have more sense!
