Towleroad Guide to the Tube #247: Brit Awards Edition

Andy Towle February 21, 2008

The Arctic Monkeys and Take That each won two awards last night at the Brit Awards: “The Sheffield band [Arctic Monkeys] won the coveted Best British Group award. They also walked away with the Best British Album award for Favourite Worst Nightmare. Take That won Best British Live Act and Best British Single for “Shine”, voted for by commercial radio listeners and The Sun Bizarre column readers. Gary Barlow described it as ‘unbelievable'.”

Mika and Beth Ditto opened the show with a medley of “Love Today”, “Standing in the Way of Control” and “Grace Kelly” (above). Below, Kylie Minogue performs “Wow”, Leona Lewis performs “Bleeding Love”, Amy Winehouse performs “Love is a Losing Game”, and Rihanna trots out “Umbrella” another time with The Klaxons.
