Once again we have the winners of the Music Awards, which this year is in its 11th edition..
There is not much to highlight about this edition (generally none of the above, the truth) since I don't understand where these lists of nominees come from / awarded and where they are always the same.
There will never be nominees like Lorca, like Alis, etc..unless they are best sellers and they do brutal promotion campaigns.
At least Nena Daconte are awarded in two of the categories: Breakthrough author and breakout artist. Dover takes the prize for the winners of the night with several awards.
The big absentee from the party, in which Fangoria performed , Monkey, Enrique Bunbury and Falete, inter alia, It was Alejandro Sanz, on tour in America (wow what a coincidence), who did not win any of the five Music Awards for which he was competing for his latest work, “El tren de los momentos”. His first year without awards?
Best album of the year for Jorge Drexler? well it's going to be that for me (and for many others) no…
