2014 Mid Year CDS Music Chart Awards: Winner List

After receiving a few hundred votes during the duration of the first annual Mid Year CDS Music Chart Awards, I have finally been able to calculate the winners. So let's start off with the losers. The biggest bomb of all the acts? Sadly, Coldplay.

Though it was nominated for 5 awards in 4 categories, Coldplay failed to scoop a single award. That's the biggest shut out of the awards ceremony. Additionally, Coldplay only racked up less than 10% of the votes in each category, even ranking last in 2 categories. Despite all this, Coldplay won two bonus awards that were voted on by the public.

Additionally, Katy Perry, Jason Derülo, and Pharrell Williams also failed to pick up any wins though they scored nominations in 3 or more categories (Katy Perry scooped 1 bonus award). Now here's the winners.
