Duelling Junos - One Oops, One Well Done


Good news for Jill Barber (and Anne Murray) but bad news for the credibility of the Juno Awards. As I lamented previously, the credibility of the Junos was already a little questionable. This mistake won't help. It might also be time to rename the Best New Artist category, Best Breakthrough Artist. It's great that Jill Barber is getting a second nomination but she's not a new artist. New does not mean new to the masses, it means new to existence.

And here's the CBC on the movie Juno and opening title sequences in films. I liked, didn't love Juno, but I loved the music and style of the opening title sequence.
