Of course! Silly me! I'm sure a load of people just immediately came to the spontaneous decision to buy that particular RatM single. There wasn't a guy on Facebook telling them to, or anything. Nope. Not at all.ChromeAlchemist said:
I bought it. Not really because a facebook group told me to, though I do admit i quite liked the idea. Just because the version I had was a bit shit.
However, after I bought it, I was on Tom Morello's twitter and he said "Come on England, its your time now!" and I thought 'fuck you tom morello, scotland is part of this too.'
and really wished i could have got a refund.

On topic, is there still time to buy it? Charts are on Sunday and Christmas is on Friday... balls. I was planning on buying a few, I hope it can still manage to get number 1 without me, fair play to all you who've bought it.
If the X factor guy wins, Cowell and Sony get paid; if RATM win then only Sony get paid - Syco is owned by Sony, not the other way round.happysock said:
I refuse to buy music from an anti-capitalist band that works for a private multi-national company and live in mansions. If they truly ment what they say they'd stay underground.
Plus Mastodon are way better and aren't nearly as well known.

Wow, so a guy you don't like win and you buy singles from the other band?
The hell is this? You do realize you're not changing []anything[/b]? Sony is getting their money whatever you do.

He might be able to sing well, but he is singing a rehashed Disney safe Miley Cirus song which was written by some over-paid song writers; the rage song was on the other hand written by the group themselves and has some meaning, background and feeling to it. Hell, there is a lot more to being a successful artist than just being able to sing, half the guys ont he x-factor could sing very well im sure and theyre not going anywhere. If Joe can perform then he will do fine, whether he gets this number 1 or not. There is a large difference between the two, and people have just had enough of this crap being forced down their throat xmas after xmas.happysock said:
You dont have to buy it, no one is forcing you to. Its just there is more to this than Simon Cowell making money.
Its not about money, irs about showing people that the x-factor (and similar shows) dont have to control people and that with enough support, anything is possible to liberate peopleHUBILUB said:
Ouch what was that for. Like I said I'm not taking sides I was just saying the kids a good singer and feel a bit sorry for him, not saying he SHOULD be number one, I understand he hasn't written the incredibly poor Miley Cyrus song either.tk1989 said:

I won't buy the RATM single. I think most people like the song cos they think they are anarchists and 'sticking it to the man' plus it swears so what couldn't be cool about it.
Unless it's a facebook group.AdambotLive said:
The paranoid conspiracy nut in me says this has all been orchestrated to get EVERYONE talking about the X-factor, what better way to do it than to put a well known anthem of rebellion up against this years winner? Then again... it's quite an effort to go to.
In any case, remember people, it's JUST A DAMN CHART. Nothing more, nothing less. Yes it would be cool if Rage got the number one spot, if for no better reason than telling the X-factor to shove it and not let them get the 5 year streak and for showing that the British public does actually have a mind of its own. Kinda petty really, when you consider the rest of the garbage that's going to be polluting it anyway.
I know what's good music. You know what's good music. Nothing else matters.
EDIT: For the record I did buy the single. Years ago.
I was actually really tempted to download it, but thankfully my common sense took over and I again realised that not only do I not like X-Factor, I don't really like RATM either, and participating at all in this petty fued just drags it out longer.
And I agree with all the people who have pointed out that the motto of "Fuck you I wont do what you tell me" really makes no sense when everyone is going out to get this single precisely because somebody told them to.

Something tells me this will end just like the L4D2 boycott. Only more expensive.WINDOWCLEAN2 said:
