Seeing Christlike being recognized for their efforts is refreshing. It's hard to imagine that talent like this could be over looked for so long. Well done Christlike, My prayers and support are with you always.

Congratulations Hopes Call on 6 nominations. You know I believe you deserve it. I'm so proud of all of you. Miss you and love you a lot.

Who determined the web sites? I can think of at least 10 that are much better than the ones you have listed. Some of them never change anything..you can go back week after week, and nothing changes. Is that a good website?

I'm really happy with this years picks. I think you guys did a great job. I really appreciated the attention to traditional as well as progressive SG. This is a well balanced list of nominees. I'm happy for the Jody Brown Indian Family. They deserve this recognition, as well as Hopes Call. Good Luck guys!

I couldn't help but notice a lot of people not too familiar. what about your Karen Peck and New Rivers,Hoskins families, and jeff and Sherri's?
KIm Hopper,Karen Peck,Angie Hoskins,Libbi Perry,Joyce Martin just to name a few? Where do they fit?

Pauline,

Thanks for noticing the difference in our awards. Our awards are unique in many ways. Our award nominations were the first awards in the SG Industry to be based entirely on accomplishments for the previous year. This means that our award nominations may or may not be similar to the year before and will most likely NOT be similar to more familiar FAN FAVORITE type award nominations. Each individual is nominated based upon a majority of votes received by the SGN Staff. The nominees will then be voted on by SGN website readers starting next week.

All of our nominees have made a significant impact in the industry in one form or another in the year 2004. Are there other artists equally worthy? Absolutely, however, they did not receive the majority of votes for the nomination this year.

If you would like to take some time to read the discussion on the message boards about this very thing, you may see it explained even further.

Thanks for your inquiry
