A while back, just after the Polaris Music Prize Long List was announced, The R3-30's Countdown Within A Countdown was the Polaris Short List, if it were up to your votes!
Interestingly, you were correct on only three counts: Kathleen Edwards, Grimes and Feist. At the time, I asked NOW Magazine contributor (and Polaris juror), Anupa Mistry, to sit in with me and offer her insight on your "fantasy short list".
Well, Anupa's back this week as we countdown the short list according to each album's success on The R3-30! She'll be the colour commentary as we examine the shortlisters and their chances.
I would never purport that The R3-30 would be influential when it comes to actually deciding the winner of The Polaris Prize, but I'm not saying that we're not, either.
