Amazing quote in the press release launching Lewis Capaldi’s album: “I hope people don’t think it’s shit. I mean don’t get me wrong there will be one or two stinkers on there, but I’m only human and we all make mistakes, but as a whole I think it’s pretty fucking good.”
ANYWAY, congratulations to for winning 2017’s Popjustice #TwentyQuid Music Prize. Here’s what happened.
It’s thirty years since The KLF’s 3am Eternal hit Number One so I suppose it must also be about thirty years since 13-year-old me met The KLF at Top Of The Pops.

Imagine how amazing a Billie Eilish Bond theme would be
What terribly sad news about Sarah Harding. None of all that amazing music would have been the same without her spark.
Little Mix's 'Move' is the 2014 Popjustice Twenty Quid Music Prize winner.

Yesterday evening I phoned Porter Robinson for a quick chat about his new video. Ended up on the phone for an hour
The new Little Mix single is incredible. Here are some facts about it: popjustice.com/briefing/littl
The John Lewis ad but with young Marshmello being given an empty bucket
That's the weird thing about perspective isn't it, because you could just as easily argue that Madonna pulling it together and finishing the song is "most triumphant moment" in BRIT Awards history
This song is brilliant

In 2006 I asked Meat Loaf if he had a message for Popjustice readers
Have given it some proper thought and am definitely ready for a proper new Katy Perry single.
2017 is going to be the year of acts coming back with albums that sound precisely like the sort of albums you want those acts to be making.
Thinking about it now the dust has settled, Alejandro is actually better than Bad Romance isn’t it
2. I've done an interview with Josh off Union J and that'll be on the site tomorrow too. Includes details of new single, album and haircut.

The Lady Gaga single’s out this week. I’m not going to listen to it. popjustice.com/briefing/lady-
Did an interview with a popstar earlier and after a shambolic first minute with sound off, video on, sound on, video off and then a random raised hand they explained they'd never used Zoom before. What a beautiful eight months they must have had
Pitbull’s cover of Africa is an end-of-year-list-destroying masterpiece. Total bare minimum, no prechorus, no postchorus, no middle eight, just VERSE CHORUS VERSE CHORUS VERSE CHORUS CHORUS THERE THAT’S TWO AND A HALF MINUTES INVOICE ATTACHED

Very sad to see the news about SOPHIE. She made a big impact on pop and the people who love it open.spotify.com/track/6BmRyi1A
UNDERSTAND AND RESPECT THE TEMPORAL INSOUCIANCE OF THE CREATIVE PROCESS BUT VERY MUCH IN THE MOOD FOR SOME NEW LORDE MUSIC
Radio always seems to come into its own on days like this but Radio 1 has been really extraordinary today.
I can now announce that one of the Top 15 pop moments of the year is the “(selling petrol)” in verse two of The 1975’s It Ain’t Living (If Etc)
BIG SONG: Madeon - 'The City' http://t.co/6UwX7WXU <<<THIS IS VERY GOOD
On the verge of putting a new Popjustice Dot Com site design live because a few days before Christmas is definitely the right time to do that, and the thing I’m most excited about is the new page navigation
Refused to believe it until I saw it with my own eyes but yes Shura’s album posters really use a quote from her mum
Whatever happens, in life or in pop, I will never forget the way I felt when Lady Gaga looked me in the eye and said: “I love Girls Aloud.”
Radio 1’s Newsbeat just introduced a report from Hastings saying it was the site of a large battle and the birthplace of the man who invented the Spice Girls. Pretty ridiculous to suggest that such a major historical event is on a par with the Battle of Hastings
That Lorde song’s the sort of thing you imagine other popstars hearing and just going “oh for fuck’s sake”.
Do you think Lady Gaga might be entering her second imperial phase? I think she might be you know.

Dua Lipa's Physical has won the 2020 Popjustice Twenty Quid Music Prize. A monster song, to be fair.

We wrote this album almost 8 years ago and for various reasons it didn’t get an official release, so it’s with great pride that The Lost Tapes is available now on all streaming platforms 
A very Merry Christmas, love Mutya, Keisha & Siobhan

The Katy Perry single passes the ‘on the radio with a window open on a sunny day’ test quite well

Also: still a banger

So if you’re a popstar or are thinking of becoming one, or work with one, don’t underestimate the power of acknowledging your fans. Maybe send them a letter for no reason! I don’t know. Maybe it only takes a like or a follow.

I’ve come to see Poppy do a pop concert and the warmup music just went from Taylor Swift to Mambo No 5 — the greatest of all the mambos — so I think this is going to be a big evening
GREETINGS FROM MILAN where I am about to watch a concert by noted popstar Lady Gaga
I suppose the main learning here is that while we were all droning on and on forever about who would front a modern day Lady Marmalade, we took our eye off the ball and never thought to ask who would make a modern day Independent Women Pt 1
