It is a result of this that PPCA recently presented a national music award to Alex and his record label EMI Music acknowledging the outstanding achievement of a single Australian recording - 'Amazing' - in 2002.

As Alex has been moving between Australia and overseas recording commitments for most of this year, it was a pleasure to find a window in his schedule for PPCAs Chairman, Peter Bond to present this award to Alex and to John O'Donnell, Managing Director EMI Music at an intimate gathering of industry and media folks.

The PPCA award is based on airplay data - not on voting or popularity or chart success or sales. The results are taken from extensive radio play lists collated by PPCA for both local and international recording artists and the lists for 2003 showed that radio across the country embraced Alex's recordings placing his hit single 'Amazing' as the most played Australian recording for 2002.

PPCA congratulates Alex Lloyd and his recording label EMI Music on the outstanding broadcasting achievement.
