Elbow Win The 2008 Mercury Music Prize
Elbow have won the Mercury Music Prize for best album of the last twelve months. The group won the £20,000 prize last night for their fourth album, The Seldom Seen Kid. They beat Estelle, Adele, Radiohead, Laura Marling, bookies' favourite Burial, The Last Shadow Puppets and Rachel Unthank and the Winterset to the prestigious prize.
Take That! Amy Arrives (Finally) At Ivor Novello Awards
Amy Winehouse won one of the three awards she was nominated for at last night's prestigious Ivor Novello Awards. She won Best Song Musically & Lyrically for "Love Is A Losing Game".

Alex Turner, Duffy And Nick Cave Top The Mojo Nominations
Mojo magazine have announced the shortlist of nominations voted by readers for their annual awards – the 2008 Mojo Honours List.

The lovely Duffy should also be very happy with three nominations including Breakthrough Act, and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds scored two nominations for Best Album and Song of the Year.
