Rage Against The Simon Cowell Machine For Christmas

By Paul Cashmere
Sun, 06 Dec 2009 06:26:20 +1100

Rock fans in the UK are revolting against Simon Cowell this Christmas and you can help. Join the cause to make Rage Against The Machine number one for Christmas.

Rage Against The Machine For Christmas Number 1 started as a Facebook group to gather enough fans to buy ‘Killing In The Name’ by RATM in the same week the Simon Cowell X-Factor winner releases a song.

Traditionally, the Cowell X-Factor song ends up with enough sales to make it the number one song over Christmas.

On Sunday December 13 you should Rage Against The X-Factor and buy Rage Against The Machine ‘Killing In The Name’ to block Simon Cowell’s latest Frankenstein from the top of the charts.

The group urges you to buy the song again even if you already own it. The purchase must take place between December 13 and December 19 to qualify for the December 20 chart.

The group currently has 195,000 fans.
