So who do we think will be on this list for 2008? The "Sound of..." chart is a chart of the 10 acts which music 'experts' predict will be big in the coming year. The only eligibility criterion is that the artist must not have had a top 20 single prior to the chart's announcement.
Here are the previous years' charts, with chart positions for the singles that the artists released in the year in question (position in *s means that it was a featured appearance on somebody else's hit, and positions in brackets are for hits prior to the year in question):
