Rage Against the Machine - Killing In The Name for Christmas No. 1

[kk.]

But the song that wouldve been chosen is completely different. The artist is popular who wins, which is why they won. The RATM song couldve been anything and people would buy it.

What I meant about the multiple copies which might not have been clear is that people would buy multiple copies of RATM more so than joes single, but out of spite, rather than actually wanting to own more than one, or buying for friends.

I'd say the majority of the people who bought it aren't even fans, nor have ever heard of the song before. I see people on Facebook joining it who definitely would never have done so.

The only song that should be the Christmas number one is a Christmas song, and since George Michael has actually done one, love him or hate him, there you go.

Well, if George Michael did take it then fair enough, and I wouldn't be for the campaign. But every year it's the X factor **** that always gets christmas number 1.

i never have really been a fan of RATM, but this song reminds me of an underage rock club i used to go to when i was 14, so i got fond memories of it.

i think this will be the last year for the x-factor number one, if it's well organised a big single with a big backing could probably take it next year.

this ratm thing hasn't been planned well enough, most of the supporters aren't buying the single.

i say release the hxf vip song haha.

I think people are forgetting that this was done last year when an internet campaign got the original Hallelujah to number two.

Last year, cool. This is now.

Hi guys. I'm impartial to who gets Christmas number 1, so I though I'd spice thing up a little (and annoy a few people).

People would buy multiple copies of Joe McElderry (e.g family/friends) out of wanting him to be Christmas #1 rather than actually wanting to own more than one, or buying for friends.
