OMG, Dido for pop  I'm glad to see Dido in your list. Only Love for male performance  Love Me Again, Mirros and Another Love are amazing too. Same Love or SIY for duo  Best pop album for Dido, easy. Woman's World, Timber and Work Bitch Clarity for eletronic. True for dance album, rap for Can't Hold Us or SFTB. I Hope r&b, yees  but I love Clown too. Brand New Me is good too. I like all from alternative pop Kings and Lionheart for alternative rock  Heartthrob or Modern for best alternative album  Radioactive and Supersoaker for rock performance.
Amazing choices.

Top 100 Songs (2-1)
2.
"Get Lucky"
Daft Punk featuring Pharrell Williams & Nile Rodgers
Random Access Memories
“When teaser fragments of "Get Lucky" began morphing across the web, it already sounded like the club anthem of summer. Heard in toto, the first single from the forthcoming LP by EDM godfathers Daft Punk reveals itself, startlingly, as an old-school disco jam. Over a groove recalling "We Are Family," Pharrell sums up club culture in a line – "We're up all night to get lucky" – alongside the signature funky upstrokes of guitarist/dance music guru Nile Rodgers. Then some talk-boxin' retro-future robots come in to take us higher still. Is it "EDM"? Does it matter? Either way, as they say in Paris: Formidable.”(Will Hermes, “Rolling Stone”)
"She's up all night 'til the sun, I'm up all night to get some..."
1.
"You’re Not The One"
Sky Ferreira
Night Time, My Time
"She still draws musical inspiration from the 80s, but she’s not interested in slick or bubbly anymore. Ferreira’s accompaniment here is usually jagged a guitar, like in “You’re Not The One”, with its bludgeoning riff and crude percussion. Her power often stems from rejection of the opposite sex. “Guess you’re not the one,” she sings, but the knotty churning behind her contradict this language. Nothing here involved guessing, it was all a product of pain and planning.” (Elias Leight, “PopMatters”)
"It's the middle of the night and I'm so gone and I'm thinking about how much I need you, but you really want somebody else. Should be given the right to carry on, I'm still thinking about how much I need you, but you really want somebody else..."
Thank you for your comments! Top albums and the music awards' nominees in main categories coming soon!
