State Of Shock's "Money Honey" Nominated For Three Canadian Radio Music Awards

Vancouver's State Of Shock sang, "If I had the money honey, would you love me, love me, love me" in one of the biggest Canadian hits of the year, and now they have a chance to add some prizes to their cash as "Money Honey" has been nominated for three Canadian Radio Music Awards.

The 11th annual show will be hosted by Jully Black and will feature performances by Elise Estrada, Faber Drive, Hayley Sales, Jessie Farrell, State Of Shock and Suzie McNeil. As previously announced, Alanis Morissette will be inducted into the Canadian Music Industry Hall Of Fame at the ceremony.

Avril Lavigne, Finger Eleven, Nelly Furtado, Nickelback and Three Days Grace are the nominees for the fans' choice award. The only category where the winner is determined by the public through votes at the Canadian Music Week website will be augmented by six other categories, where the victor will be chosen by radio programmers and on-air personalities, during a March 7 luncheon at Toronto's Royal York Hotel.

Aside from the fans' choice category, CRMA nominees include artists who've hit Canadian radio charts for the first time and who achieved top airplay in different formats based on the number of spins they received according to Nielson Broadcast Data Systems. Two non-voting awards — the FACTOR Breakthrough Award for top airplay for a new artist supported by the Foundation To Assist Canadian Talent On Records and the Chart Topper Award for most overall airplay — will also be presented.
