the UK billboard hands this award out every year to the track that sells the most during the weeks leading up to Christmas. The award has been dominated by lame winners of X-Factor (Simon Cowel's British talent show)

But this year 'Rage Against the Machine - Killing in the Name Of' is a surprise contender.

join this group and buy the track!

What people don't realise is that both tracks are on the same label. Which simon cowell most likely has shares in.

I don't think the point was to piss him off, just to show that people are sick of the 'race' for xmas no1 being really predictable and boring because of x-factor having months and months of free publicity.

i dont know why this is such an argument on /b/. i mean, who cares if he profits? the point wasnt to take away money from him, it was to do something hilarious and ridiculous, amirite?
