I knew once the physical copies started going on sale, the gap would close. I expect Joe will still get his Christmas no1.
I don't mind though- he seems like a nice guy. At least it wasn't Olly
I think Joe will end up getting the no1, he will catch up and then on saturday i reckon he will do at lest 100k physicals with all the tweenieboppers.
People need to go out and BUY Joe's single from the shops....... Lets get him to number one!! Don't see why a campaign aimed with hatred behind it should be allowed to get something to number one!

Ive already downloaded it and will be AS I HAVE SAID buying the cd tomoro because i want to hear the cover of Don't let the sun go down on me
I agreed with what Aly Burke said on radio 1 today
She said along the lines of like that at the end of the day, people will buy the song they like. They are not gonna go out a song because of the hype.

I've just bought Rage...hate the song and will never play it - but the smugness disappearing from Cowell's face is worth the 65p

If there IS hatred behind this campaign then it is a valid hatred of something which many people believe is causing the slow erosion of our music industry and indeed our wider culture and attitudes towards fame and celebrity. It is a hatred of organisations/people/TV shows that exploit and humiliate people in a ritualistic manner to line their own pockets.
I would MUCH rather buy into that supposed hatred than into the bloodsucking, soul-less x-factor juggernaut.

I was 'aware' of RAGE before buying it. I had 2 other songs by them on my MP3 player anyway, hadn't heard this song but I really liked it after 2 plays, so that's my just cause.

Ofcourse people will buy a song because of the hype. You don't honestly think that Joe's versian of climb would have a chance if it wasn't for the 4 month advertisment campaign called The X Factor do you? Or RATM for that matter.
If ''hype'' didn't sell records Simon wouldn't be wasting his time on X Factor. He's hardly in it for ''the art''.
Just bought the RATM song. I hope they get to number 1, really can't stand another christmas number 1 from the sad factor.

Reality TV has been around for years, especially back in the 80s and 90s - I remember tons of singing contests: most of them went on to make the music industry of the late 90s and early 00s. Especially in the USA: if it weren't for those talent shows the USA wouldn't have the industry it has today.
RATM are now outselling Joe by 3 to 1 on Itunes, they have a massive lead. Even spectacular CD sales by Joe might not be enough to stop them if this keeps up.
I dont mind the Xfactor at all and dont mind the winner getting a number 1 single.
Saying that though I do wish the Xfactor wouldnt finnish a week before xmas to try and garuantee an xmas number 1.
I do miss all the excitement of finding out what would be xmas number 1 between artists that actually put some effort into making a song fit for xmas like it used to be.
As it is nobody seems to bother anymore these days since Xfactor started to dominate that spot every year.
