Yes i understand that.

Maybe you can provide a list of silver, gold and platinum disc awards?

That was not really the intention of my thread but feel free to do so, it would be interesting.

No Granny wins in the 90s is bullshit. Prince deserved something for his work on Gold Experience, Diamonds and Pearls, and Emancipation

Just for accuracy's sake geek the 1985 BPI award for Best International Male and the 1985 Brit award for Best International Male are one and the same.

Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

You are correct about Batman winning best soundtrack. But i think this may have been for Danny Elfmans orchestral score.

I checked my copy of 'The vault' and there is no mention of Prince winning a Brit for the Batman soundtrack. I am not saying i am definitely correct though. Anyone shed any light on this fact?
