Mark ronson did the band arrangements on his album. Anyone who knows anything about musical composition will know that arranging is quite a skill in itself. He also had writing credits on most of the songs on Back to Black so he is far from inept as a songwriter. Personally there are people I would rather have seen nominated ahead of Mark Ronson but this is the Brit Awards people! Popular artist have always been the order of the day. I'm glad to see someone who produces some excellent soul/Motown influenced pop tunes nominated over the usual dross. I love the Stone Roses and Ian Brown, but he's not nominated as 'The World Is Yours' is probably his most dissapointing album to date. It's not really a farce he wasn't nominated, the album just isn't very good. A farce maybe that the Stone Roses never won a brit for their first album or that Ian Brown never won any brits the year 'Music of the Spheres' was released. But I don't see why he is particularly worthy of being nominated for anything this year other than possibly the Outstanding Contribution award.
