rage against the x-factor - Outcome: RATM is the Christmas Number One!

Yep was on the radio earlier. He can't even sing :eek:

Much like that Leon Jackson muppet from afew years ago, where is he now eh? One hit wonder along with most of the others. TBH I dont care if Joe Elderberry wins as judging by his "singing" its going to be his only No 1 single, might aswell give the boy somthing to remember his time on X-Factor by before his career goes **** up and he is forgotten along with all the other so called talent the show has churned out.
 
Just what i posted on my facebook

"keep on buying the rage single! whoever wins the xfactor doesnt always 'deserve' to be christmas number one regardless of all the other top 40 entries in past few weeks/months(after all everyone forgets about it in a few weeks anyway!), if all these other songs were as well advertised on TV as the xfactor finalist.... im sure they wouldnt have trouble beating it to the No.1 spot!"

No.1 at the moment it is.

Its not really the fact that this song is SO MUCH BETTER than all the others is just proving a POINT that an xfactor song doesn't have to be No.1 year after,year,after year,after year... you get the idea!

And all the money that is spent on producing the Xfactor and getting millions of people to watch just to be entertained so that they can vote their favouritist singer is not really comparable to all the other entries that are in the Top 40! Why should the charts be controlled by a tv program when their are plenty of new entries before the official No.1 is announced.

I can understand why so many people would vote because they like this particular song but that really only stems from making a tv program and not pitting musical talent against one another.

I could morth into simon cowell tomorrow, brain wash you all and convince you that XYZ person is the next best thing since sliced bread and make you buy the christmas No.1 just because i said so, and because you enjoy the tv show, without giving regard to all the other acts that could be musically superior but just havent been giving the chance because they havent appeared on Xfactor.

Ooh look its the (for example) lady gagas new single which every club/bar/pub plays... young and old dance to it and everyone loves to listen to it butt.... it wasnt on xfactor so that means we cant buy it as we already spent our 99p buying the song that beat x number of amateur singers rather than the whole of the top 40 artists!!

grrr it just makes me so mad, i wonder in a perfect world, if you released this joe single without x factor being involved would he even come close to No1!?
 
Hmm.. as much as I can't stand X Factor and the way it has become more so than ever a money making scheme by Simon Cowell. The Killing in the name song by RATM sounds 10x worse than Joe Mcelderry's song.

Lets go back to basics: If you are going to boycott X factor then at least do it with a song that could be seen as mainstream and almost pop, not some grunge crap.

As much as I hate to say it... Joe, you got my money.

Its more about the whole point of it tho, and this song sums up it perfectly... i wont do what you tell me, i dont need to explain further...

Fair enough if everyone didnt jump on the xfactor omg hes the best musician in the world right now cuz he won the xfactor bandwagon then the RATM song wouldn't be in the charts right now, it would be something better that hasnt been so heavily influenced!

10x worse? There's no musical merit to the Joe song. There is nothing innovative in there. Bland voice, no progression to the song unless you count the predictable key change, tired pop instrumental side to it. Ugh.

It's not grunge.

Never mind, eh?
 
Bought my mp3 today, listened to my top 3 RATM tracks - Sleep in the Fire, Renegades of funk and Bullet in the Head and bounced around like I was 18 again instead of a fat & knackered 33 year old!

Pity its not the band in your signature that is being pushed to No.1.

They are far better ;) :p

Superb :D
Your whole rant fails because Cowell gave Lady Gaga airtime for her new single on the X-Factor
