The Horrors, Florence And The Machine, Muse and The Vaccines are some of the winners on last night NME Award (Feb 29th 2012). Most of the winners and nominees of this awards are our favourite musicians. To come to this event is our dreams. Unfortunately, we don’t live in UK and if we do, we don’t have access to be there. But, we will write a little about it and post some photos.
Last night, Florence and the Machines took most of the awards. Besides Best Track for Shake It Up, Florence and the Machine also won Best Solo Artist, beating Adele who won six awards on Grammy this year. Florence and the Machine also performed her song Shake It Up and rocked the stage with The Horrors, singing their single, Still Life. The Horrors did not come home empty handed last night as they received Best Album award for their third album, Skying. Meanwhile, Best British Band and Best International Band go to Kasabian and Foo Fighters.
What makes us happier about this award is lots of our favourite bands won. Other than The Horrors, the band that has become our object of obsessions—HURTS—won Best Video for their single, Sunday. The Vaccines and Friendly Fires (that I—Tessa—will see on March 17), each has also won an award. The Vaccines was declared as Best New Band and Friendly Fires got an award for Best Album Artwork.
The Stone Roses reunion was chosen as Greatest Music Moment and The Smiths took the Best Reissue Award for their complete reissue of all their albums and singles. Another legendary band who won last night was Pulp. They received Outstanding Contribution to Music award.
Here are some photos from the red carpet and the show. They are definitely not ours. We tried our best to put a credit to the photographers, but we can’t find all the names. So, if you know who owns this photo, please tell us and we will immediately put the credit here. (I think some of them belongs to Getty, but please correct me if I’m wrong.)
