box 582 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Lana Del Rey's haunting ballad Video Games has been named song of the decade at the Q Awards in London. "I'm so honoured. This is unreal," said the star, who accepted the prize via video link. Released in 2011, Video Games was initially rejected by dozens of record labels, who said it was too long, too moody, and lacked the drums it needed to get played on the radio. But it became the singer's breakthrough hit, reaching number nine in the UK. "I just can't tell you how much this means," the star said in her acceptance speech. "I got my start in London so I wish I could be there, but I'm there in spirit." The rest of the Q Awards were dominated by grime- with Stormzy, Dizzee Racsal and Little Simz all picking up major prizes. Stormzy picked up best solo act, beating Liam Gallagher, and seemed uncharacteristically nervous as he took to the podium. "This means a lot to me. It's been a very crazy year for myself and my team and my family... I'm at a loss for words." The star, who headlined Glastonbury in June, also announced that his publishing company, Merky Books, had acquired the rights to the autobiography of best-selling Young Adult author Malorie Blackman. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-50080526?ns_mchannel=social&ns_source=twitter&ocid=socialflow_twitter&ns_campaign=bbcnews Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
