Excellent, Happy Xmas Sony.
Ho ho ho
That's one in the eye for those big multinationals.
Yeah, Sony are crying all the way to the bank.
I hope my 29p helped them
kinda proves a point tho...if you want those f**kmonkeys from x-factor off the top spot it can be done. Personally i know they both come under the sony umbrella but im glad it is not an x-factor winner on the top.
The 29p ones dont count.....?
you do realise they are both on the Sony record label - LOL!!
Laughing!
So it was Sony behind the campaign. Clever!!
Win/win.
Cynical old Hector: They'll manage to redo the count somehow by the time the actual chart comes out.
woohoo

That's a bit of an urban myth apparently.

Yes, as are 9 out the top 10 Albums...
Just nice not have yet another crap x- factor buble gum shite tune at no.1...
I'm happy, most of the proceeds going to charity and means some **** talent show winner doesn't get to number one, thats a result in my book
Seems fair to me that joe fellow whilst he has a good voice is dull as sin, would have preferred to see that other lad win, at least he had a little boogie on the stage.
Love to hear cowell/macellderry meeting on monday.
One happy Coyote here.
+++ From the BBC website +++
"Cowell added the bad weather may have prevented McElderry fans getting to the shops to buy his CD, which was released on Wednesday. "
yes, that's what it was

I quite surprised to hear how important the Christmas number one is to a lot of people.
But won't the just play the cowell song anyway (and all the time) as it doesn't have swearing?
One manipulative campaign replaced by another.
It's still not about the music, is it?
HAHAHAHHAHA
"PURCHASE POWER"
made my Christmas!
Why is this important to some?
And i think its sadder than buying the x factor single.
There said it.

Not important at all. Merely a bit more entertaining than a manufactured product achieving what it was made to do.

Strike me as a bit ironic- resurrect an old song (I assume it was only an album track, cba to check), package it as a single and give it a job to do.

Yup I agree.
Worth a few pence to annoy the TV zombies addicted to "Celebrity Strictly Come X Factor on Ice with pets" or whatever the hell it is...
Heard it said that profits from RATM's single is going to a charity for the homeless. So yes, win, win.

Whatever.
is the irony of buying a virally marketted song with the chorus of f@ck you I wont do what you told you lost on everyone here?

No, it's just a bit of fun
As a RATM fan, I think it's great.
We're constantly force fed more f***ing cover versions delivered with no passion at all. If the UK wasn't so full of morons maybe programmers would get rid all of the sh1t we get on the radio and telly.
No, I just think no one cares? X-factor isnt number one. Excellent.
Stop reading any more into it you tools.
I would actually be quite interested to know the ages of each person here! Like, isn't the Christmas no 1 only of relevance to 10 year olds nowadays?? As far as i am aware there is amazing music being perfomed and recorded all over the world, you just need to go out and find it. I went to see Baka Beyond and danced my socks off for two hours a couple of weeks ago. Sure they are not number one but then I am not a spotty young teen who worries about these things
