and the number one christmas spot goes to RATM

[jodie]

This news has made my day.

I actually can't believe it. The first year I was really really happy for the person who won, and thought they truely deserved it, the get robbed by some crap old band with some crap screamy song.

Ahh well, at least he knows that he was only beaten by people on fb who wanted to annoy simon cowell, not by a serious artist/song. People didn't vote cause they actually liked the song...surely...

[leeloo]

BRING ON THE REVOLUTION!!! *clenched fist in the air* ;D

[rottencupcake23]

Doesn't anyone feel really sorry for Joe, I mean, he's the most talented winner yet and he get's blatently robbed. Ok, I wouldn't mind if RATM was a good song..but..it isn't..

I agree. Poor Joe.

[Taffy-Kat]

im gutted for him i really like him, he may not be number 1 this week but im sure he will be next week and that ratm song will disappear of the charts doubt anyone will buy it now they proved there point,

[sirbenson]

I agree I think it is such a farce that RATM has won with that song.

[leeloo]

Why feel sorry for Joe? Cowell manipulates the charts every Xmas.....the campaign was against Cowell, not Joe. it would have happened whoever won the X F actor.Cowell is NOT interested in long-term talent, he only wants short term gains maximising the participants as much as he can in a short a time as possible.

Oh, and the RATM song is fab ;D

Anyway, I've just posted this on the RATM FB wall:

"Fantastic news! I still love Jedward though!"

[Taffy-Kat]

the funny thing about the whole battle is that ratm is apart of a company which is part of simon cowel so he cant be that mad as the sales money are going into his company

Oh yeah ;D

The stupid thing is, most people who bought the RATM are now being all smug and self richeous saying how they didn't want to conform and follow the crowd by buying that " manufactured sh*t" as I've heard it been called...what they don't seem to realise is that they've just done exactly what they were theoretically making a stand about. They've all just jumped on the band wagon, followed the crowd, and bought the single to prove a point. Slightly contradictory me thinks.

Sorry for my little rant, and I was very careful to say " most " people, because I know some people geniunely like the song. Fair do's for those people, they have the right to like it and buy it of course , I'm just annoyed with the people just supporting it to prove a point...

[FizzyKezza<3Jedward]

I feel sorry for Joe about this whole RATM but The Climb was such a bad choice of winner's song!
Hopefully, Simon will up the game next year and choose a decent winner's song ;D

I am honestly the exact same! It's weird, i like RATM & actually REALLY like that song, but i wanted Joe for no.1.. he seems like a lovely guy & the voice on him, jesus! I never liked a winner of X Factor as much before..

Hopefully Jedward will have a single out by next Xmas, we'll have a campaign to get that to no.1 then..

[lauraaaaaowns]

I feel really sorry for Joe. But at least this gives us all a chance to make John and Edward the first XF 2009 finalists to go to number 1! (apart from the charity single ofc)
