Robbie and The Streets top album poll

An Amazon poll of 2002 albums names The Streets as critics' artist of the year and Robbie Williams as the public's choice.

A poll of the best albums in 2002, run by books and CD website Amazon, has picked out The Streets and Robbie Williams as the artists of the year. The former topped a survey of music critics, the latter was chosen by punters.

The critics picked an interesting bunch: The Streets' debut album was at one, the excellent bootleg compilation 'As Heard On Radio Soulwax Vol.2' was at number two, Sugababes' 'Angels With Dirty Faces' at three, The Coral at four and McLusky's 'Mclusky Do Dallas' at five.

The public vote was more predictable - Robbie's 'Escapology' at one, Coldplay's 'A Rush Of Blood To The Head' at two and David Gray's 'A New Day At Midnight' at three.
