It's a passing of the baton of sorts - albeit in a posh hotel down by the river. That's it, the annual glamorous BRIT Awards nomination party where those fresh and feisty up and comers have their performances sandwiched between a load of video montage packages of the nominated artists - fun for all the family basically.
This year, Greg James will be taking to the Savoy Hotel to host the show where Emeli Sande will pick up her Critics' Choice bong from last year's winner Jessie J. Can Emeli repeat Jessie's mega-success? Judging by the rapturous acclaim that greeted her debut single Heaven, the odds look promising.
Her follow-up Daddy was offered as a free download on iTunes last week and it's all kinds of amazing - gorgeous string sections, 90s-inflected beats and of course Emeli's sumptuous vocals right at the heart of it all.
Ed Sheeran will be giving a performance on the night, so there's that to look forward to as well. After the show, you'll be able to catch up on all the highlights at the BRITs official website.
And then it's on to the big show itself, which will be held at the O2 Arena on the 21st February - bring it on!
