[quote=Dom Howards blog] RATM for #1!!! I actually can't believe it! Rage Against the Machine for Xmas number 1 is the best and funniest thing I've heard all week! They're currently holding fort on top of X Factor Joe right now so let's make this happen! I've bought my copy. Best 29p from Amazon I've ever spent! This isn't some contrived stunt from RATM or their label. Its just real music fans making a point about how typically boring and obvious this particular number 1 can be. Of all the bands to be chosen by rock fans to challenge this, it couldn't be more apt for one of the most 'power to the people' orientated bands there has been in the last 20 years. Genius!! Love it and love Rage. This song is almost 20 years old and it still sounds amazing! Can't wait to see the Xmas day Top of the Pops now (which we're on by the way, ha!), and how it will be dealt with or what will be shown. Hopefully Simon Cowell won't rush out and buy an extra 50,000 Joe McElderry singles to keep them off! Merry Xmas!! Dom x [/quote] [img_thumb]f[/img_thumb]
Tomorrow, we shall find out who won the battle.
Oh, we have to wait that long. :frown: The tension is killing me.
7 minutes to go, people, if you haven't already, buy it!
omg 5 minutes, c'mon...
Now lets wait for the results.

[QUOTE=SteveUK;19063072][url]http://www.theofficialcharts.com/top40_singles.php[/url] Keep an eye on this[/QUOTE] Not updated until tomorow afternoon after "The big Top 40 Show" I thought [editline]12:06AM[/editline] Although I would usually avoid this music and those associated it with a barge pole. It does go to a good cause. Good on them
oh gawwwwdddd i hope we did it. according to iTunes, RATM have the top single and album (which good old iTunes reduced in price :v:)
And now we wait.
[QUOTE=sphynx;19063165]oh gawwwwdddd i hope we did it. according to iTunes, RATM have the top single and album (which good old iTunes reduced in price :v:)[/QUOTE] Amazon were selling the single at a loss.
either way sony gets the money so it's not really stopping the corporate machine anyway.
[QUOTE=SteveUK;19063300]Amazon were selling the single at a loss.[/QUOTE] Oh man i can not wait to see the look on Simon Cowell's forehead.
[QUOTE=mike;19063323]either way sony gets the money so it's not really stopping the corporate machine anyway.[/QUOTE] I'm doing it to make the point that i'm sick and fed up of the X-Factor winner getting it every year.
Simon Cowell will probably kill Rage Against the Machine at the concert if they win..
[QUOTE=orbitrek;19063841]Simon Cowell will probably kill Rage Against the Machine at the concert if they win..[/QUOTE] And would then be mobbed by angry RATM fans.
[QUOTE=orbitrek;19063841]Simon Cowell will probably kill Rage Against the Machine at the concert if they win..[/QUOTE] Good luck, they'd probably strip naked, and then it'd be the Battle Of Los Angeles all over again :v:
[QUOTE=Deadollie;19063880]And would then be mobbed by angry RATM fans.[/QUOTE] That would be amazing if they caught it on camera.
[QUOTE=Echidna666;19056031]Actually he's pretty talented and not gay[/QUOTE] I didn't mean faggot in the gay sense but whatever And yeah he can sing but he should at least write his own song to deserve xmas number one, he's just a puppet
Why would they cover a song not even a year old?
[QUOTE=Pteradactyl;19068275]Why would they cover a song not even a year old?[/QUOTE] Because it's the X-Factor. It's full of people like Joe who listen to "Current" music (i.e. Whatever is in the charts this week) - He's like one of those people who'll support whichever football team is winning, just because they're winning.
The beatles like us. We will win.
What'd make me laugh would be if the winner got leaked early.
[QUOTE=Deadollie;19072545]What'd make me laugh would be if the winner got leaked early.[/QUOTE] When do we find out??
