Sony BMG are the main winners along with the charity Shelter to whom RATM have donated their royalties.

And its also a victory for facebook by making lots of sheep do something first suggested on a page of theirs :lol:

I agree, is about that more than anything. The sad thing is though that it might backfire and x-factor fanatics may well end up buying extra copies of the bloody single just to make sure... have seen some rediculous things to that effect as peoples statuses on fb.

How sad, am singing it now! "Funky cold medina...."

Who said NWA? loved their music. Awesomely creative for their time - and four guys who could really rap. MC Ren is one of the best rappers I've ever heard - awesomely smooth.

So pleaesd RATM got it.

Next year ut should be a great Xmas song that gets it though. Since as much as I wanted RATM to win and that I like the song it is not Xmassy at all (neither is that heap of shite X-Factor song either tho). Just get an old classic to number one:

Woo Hoo...registered a couple of days ago & logged on this morning & got two tickets for the gig.

So will probably travel down to London on the Saturday & stay overnight before the gig at Finsbury Park on the Sunday :).

I prefer John Cage's alternative: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2010/de ... e-x-factor

I don't think it'll happen this year. I'm glad it happened last year but I don't think the appetite is there now.
