Killing In The Name Of. Christmas No 1!!!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Amazon sales don't count towards chart placings.

This is all a crusty puddle of pish really but if you get any enjoyment out of it and it isn't hurting anyone (esp. Mr Cowell) then why not.I'd rather donate my spare change to some wino that would put it to better use.

A fairly meaningless distinction I'd say.

Queuing up at Woolworths
To get our Christmas hit
With lots of peace and love and joy and
Jingle bells on it

Cashing in on Christmas

Say Santa Claus and we are rockin'
Ooh jingle bells and we're rockin'
Well every Christmas we're rockin', we're rockin all the way to the bank

Cashing in on Christmas
Hear those cash tills ring
Jingle bells make money

*Little girls' voice*
I want to wake up on Christmas morning
With the snow all over the ground
With Bad News' Christmas single in my stocking
It only costs just over a pound

Hello, this is Den Dennis
I hope you're all having a very merry Christmas
This is our Christmas single, please buy it and make it number 1
For our Christmas fun

Hello everybody, it's Vim Fuego here,

But if you buy it at 29p from Amazon it doesn't count towards the charts.

Read a few posts from the first page, couldn't be arsed reading the next few...

My take on it is,
I love Rage. I really love em. :notworthy:

Couldn't give a flying f*ck about all this crap though. Charts were manipulated back in the day when they stopped the Sex Pistols getting to No.1 so who cares about it all now.

Good luck to Rage, hope they get it just to p*ss the majority off however.

Don't like RATM and I've never watched, and never been interested in, the X factor.

From what I have understood from all this is that I'd rather Christmas number 1 wasn't angry and abrasive. I guess that means I'm pro X Factor. I'm all for songs about drugs, violence & sex, but I'd rather not have them between the Queen's speech and the Dr Who special thankyou very much.
Nationalise the f**king lot.

If one were going to choose a RATM song for such a campaign, surely "Take The Power Back" would be more apt?
For what it's worth, I quite like Killing In The Name Of SebastiAn, as it makes a change from hearing the original everywhere.

I'm not buying either. I will top the charts one day. Just not this December. I have more important things to do.

Unfair.ROCP are 9 on the Travis scale. David Grey is 8.
To clasify RATM anywhere near that end of the Travis scale is an injustice. ;D
