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

In general, I couldn't give a crap about the charts. I haven't looked at the charts results for years - what I did object to was the amount of drivel that people in this country accept as art. I took the opportunity to get behind something I believed in, waved my arms in the air and extended a digit towards the pop culture I see all around me.
Who made you high priest of what IS art?
 
I have, and i do use it. But it's the most frustrating thing in the world having two tunes playing at the same time. That and the fact that i can't talk to anybody else...
 
I never listen to the charts...Not since the 80's anyway.

But having tuned in to radio 1 from position 14 downwards i couldn't belive the amount

of crud there is.

Really poor music,Cliche after cliche in the lyric department,over production, lack of true

melody,fake contrived energy, naff concepts and ideas and no real direction.

Its not an age thing either...Its just pap music.
 
I met a guy at the club,
I let him know where to love,

I met a girl at the bar,
I let her know where you are.

I told her you are the love of my life and,
one day your gonna be my wife.
We are gonna have some babies together.

Thats good cheryl...with teenage pregnancy rife in this country you should know better.
:p

I told him you are the man of my dreams,
you saved me from drowning in the streams
and i know were gonna last forever. (and ever)

It was those 3 words that saved my life.
Its wasnt complicated, wasn't pre-meditated.
It wasn't under-rated, boy i'm so glad you stayed and..

it was those 3 words that saved my life.
It wasnt complicated, wasn't pre-meditated.
told me you were dedicated.
so just go ahead and say it...

Should have been

it was those 51 words that saved my life. :D

The majority of it all sounds the same. The same beats, the same synthetic sounds, the same auto-tuned voices...

Florence and The Machine. Now there's someone worthy of a few no.1s.
 
Yeah!

To be honest though, I'm really surprised we won with you on our team Luw!

Haha Zing!
And with you on our side, I knew we'd never hear the end of it! I'm surprised we haven't had a victory parade planned! :D

Who made you high priest of what IS art?
Sorry, I just assume that it's pretty obvious it's my opinion. If you prefer, I can add IMO at the end of every sentence if it will make my posts easier for you to understand :D
 
It is a shame that such a terrible song was put forward to attack X factor.

Instead it should have been a Christmas Classic of some sort.. anything but RATM. If it was a Christmas classic or any decent song for that matter I would have bought it.

I am in favour of putting a finger up to X factor but Bob The Builder was a better number 1 Christmas song than this RATM ****.

I'm sick and tired of all Christmas songs. I actually prefer the X Factor stuff to the tinsley garbage that usually gets played. God damn trees and fairy lights and snow and happy people gathering around a fire. Enough to make you sick.
 
Her voice actually makes me turn off the radio :mad:

I must admit she had never really interested me until I was listening to her on the radio on the drive home last night.

They played her singing 'Last christmas' and it was simply awesome, conveyed far more emotion in the song than I was used to, which is what the song lyrically is about.

The beyonce song though was terrible.

I actually didnt mind the sound of this song until I listened more closely to the lyrics, now I just cringe when I hear it, embarassed that I actually thought it sounded ok :(
