Bird is the Word for Christmas #1

Right... I know you'll probably think I am complaining again...... well, actually I guess I am, but to be totally blunt, I actually wish people would STOP trying to influence the Xmas number 1.... either with the release of X-factor drivel, or these kind of stunts. Let's just go back to the days when things just unfolded naturally!! * (sort of).

* just a thought? !

Do. NOT. JOIN. this. campaign. for. 2010, people!!!!! Make this year the year you think for yourselves!!! Reject the campaign, grow a brain, and let's get some new and innovative talent into the Charts, people!!!

I agree with Annalie's comment on facebook: Annalie: "I think for once, we should actually have some proper GOOD chart music as the Christmas number 1. Or even an actual Christmas song. Or both."

Join my new and innovative music group in my profile, let's hear something obscure, something that hasn't gone out there and should do!!

For that to happen, XCraptor would have to stop, but I got news for ya Viv, even BEFORE crap like that, there were always campaigns for Number 1 at Christmas. It just didn't happen on the same scale or via social media, and it was organised by the record companies. Personally I'd rather have it be the actual will of the people to have a certain song released for the Christmas chart than it all be controlled by Cowell and other Record Industry crooks.

Loving your phrase - XCraptor !! Go for it!! And yeh, I know what you mean anyway!! I just don't like campaigns smack in my face, I guess, or over-commercialised Xmas drivel in my face, from perfume adverts to music..... They only feel like something targetted at people with a complete inability to think for themselves, or to realise who is in fact profiting.

Curiously enough, despite God knows how many artists performing Xmas songs and releasing albums, or determination of Record Companies, I have never felt pressure to buy an album on account of the time of year. :-) *

* and the same goes for the Ibiza "summer" stuff!!

I wasnt to impressed with Scotts veiw of trying to stay impartial today, he was the one to come up with the idea he should continue to back it.

And personally as long as Matt Cardel doesnt get to number one im happy, i cant stand his cover of the song.

Even before xfactor the days of who got christmas number one were dominated by Simon Cowel with Westlife geting xmas number ones.

Sorry if for any spelling mistakes, I'm dyspraxic.

LOL reminded me of the Thunderbird 3 launch from that awful movie version of Thunderbirds (the one that had the equally awful Busted song on the soundtrack). Also so many nitpicks I can't count there. :P Still also love the bit in Full Metal Jacket that uses it but can't find a good quality version on the 'tube.

Wow, and people claim FIFA and the FIA are corrupt/easily paid off... ;):P

O dear, so the campaign failed. :-)

I am glad Rhianna went so high.... AND, it was minus a campaign, so it kind of shows people actually want to listen to talent, rather than just anybody. Still a pity the Cowell machine went to number one. Incidentally, Matt's book is out, if anyone would like to read the fascinating facts about his life. Buy now.... by this time next year, it should be going for 0.01p on amazon.
