FRANZ FERDINAND have won the MERCURY MUSIC PRIZE 2004.

A panel of judges drawn from the music industry have chosen their 12 'albums of the year', with the overall winner announced this evening (September 7) at a ceremony in central London.

Throughout the week Franz Ferdinand's self-titled debut had been secured as the bookmakers favourite to win the prize, with The Streets' 'A Grand Don't Come For Free' also tipped.

Following a rush of last minute betting, The Zuton's 'Who Killed...The Zutons' was also fancied by music fans and bookmakers alike.

However, it was Franz's album which won out, taking the 20,000 pounds prize.

On picking up the award the band looked shocked, and said they hadn't prepared for actually winning. Singer Alex Kapranos said the band were "very chuffed and very honoured" to receive the prize.

This year's shortlist also featured albums from the likes of Belle And Sebastian, Jamelia and Keane.

The shortlist was:

Basement Jaxx - Kish Kash
Belle & Sebastian - Dear Catastrophe Waitress
Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand
Jamelia - Thank You
Keane - Hopes And Fears
Snow Patrol - Final Straw
Joss Stone - The Soul Sessions
The Streets - A Grand Don't Come For Free
Ty - Upwards
Amy Winehouse - Frank
Robert Wyatt - Cuckooland
The Zutons - Who Killed...The Zutons

Previous winners have had varying degrees of success after winning the Mercury Music Prize. The award helped recent winners like Ms Dynamite reach mainstream appeal, but earlier winners such as Talvin Singh and Roni Size didn't quite manage to cross over in the same way.

The previous winners are:

1992 - Primal Scream 'Screamadelica'
1993 - Suede: 'Suede'
1994 - M People: 'Elegant Slumming'
1995 - Portishead: 'Dummy'
1996 - Pulp: 'Different Class'
1997 - Roni Size: 'New Forms'
1998 - Gomez: 'Bring It On'
1999 - Talvin Singh: 'OK'
2000 - Badly Drawn Boy: 'The Hour Of Bewilderbeast'
2001 - PJ Harvey: 'Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea'
2002 - Ms Dynamite: 'A Little Deeper'
2003 - Dizzee Rascal: 'Boy In Da Corner

Franz Ferdinand獲頒水星音樂大獎

【明報專訊】去年出道的蘇格蘭樂隊Franz Ferdinand，憑藉同名處男大碟成功擊敗多位樂壇友好如The Streets、Joss Stone及Keane等，贏得今屆Mercury Music Prize（水星音樂大獎），順利拿走2萬英鎊（約港幣28萬）獎金，不過，隊中主音Alex Kapranos表示，他們並不打算把獎金袋袋平安，而是準備捐出讓家鄉格拉斯哥青少年進修音樂之用，都算是回饋社會的表現。

Thank god that crazy Streets-guy didn't win.

Franz. .

What's wrong with Mike Skinner?

Everything. .

He played at the Lowlands festival in Holland in August. I wasn't there. But he was all drunk on stage, he acted stupid, bad performance, and so on.


究竟係咩一回事 ? I've never heard The Streets ..
