Ivor Few Awards Now...
dprice by Dale Price May 24th, 2001
Craig David, who was recently voted Most Annoying Twat, Worst Wearer of Jumpers and Most Ridiculous Facial Hair Sporting Pop Muppet 2001 has scooped more silverware... this time at the Ivor Novello awards and not in a pub conversation.

Craig, probably dressed in a rubbish jumper, carried off the Best Contemporary Song award for 'Seven Days', and the Artful Dodger track 'Woman Trouble' gained him two more - Songwriter Of The Year and the Ivors Dance Award. According to many he was totally flabbergasted at winning. Naturally.

Other winners of hideous and ill-thought doorstoppers included...

- Stevie Wonder - Special International Award
- The Clash (who appeared together for the first time in yonks) - Outstanding Contribution to British Music
- 'Babylon' by David Gray - Best Song Musically and Lyrically
- 'Can We Fix It?' by Bob The Builder - Best-Selling UK Single
- 'Feels So Good' - Sonique - International Hit of the Year
-
Iron Maiden - International Achievement

... and John Barry got an Academy fellowship for doing soundtracks, and stuff. Grand!
