Voting for the 2009 Readers' Choice Awards has begun. Check out the list of winners that you picked last year below! And be sure to make your voice heard by voting again this year: http://www.CCMmagazine.com/readerschoice.

You spoke, and we listened! CCM Magazine put the year that was 2007 to the vote, and the readers turned out en masse to proclaim their choice—your favorite band, your favorite male artist, your favorite female artist, your favorite duo and more. There were some familiar faces and some comfortable choices—and there were also some major surprises.

Well, one major surprise: Relative newcomers Family Force 5 dominated nearly every category. (And without being a member of a popular “secular” boy band.) But then, many of the names that turned up in the results just showed us that the new CCM Magazine is certainly moving in the right direction.

But don’t just take our word for it—see the results for yourself! You chose the artists in the following section.

We love the way you think.
