Indeed, although the downfall of X Factor would be downright riveting.

Indeed, it would be a touch funnier if the choices weren't Sony vs Sony, so screw one smug soulless fish-faced, philistine tosspot and pass the cash to another.
Though it would be funny to see Britain's got idiot factor get screwed, I fear come the weekend, the brain dead 13 year olds who wouldn't know art or culture if it beat them over the head with a Mozart record will all be let out of college on asbo-allowance to go to HMV or wherever else you can actually buy singles these days now that woollies has gone to the dogs, and will boost Britain's got desperation factor's chosen chimp of the month to the top of the charts on radio 1, or whatever black hole of radio suckage plays that kind of drivel.

The one thing about the X Factor show, much like our own American Idol, is if you're a viewer of the show you get to vote for one contestant or the other, but you don't really get to vote against the show itself until now."
"It's this machinery that puts forward a particular type of music which represents a particular kind of listener.
"There are a lot of people who don't feel represented by it and this Christmas in the UK they're having their say.
- Tom Morello, RATM guitarist.

It's just a bit of good old fashioned subversive humor. If RATM wins it will interesting to hear what the song sounds like after Its been censored for Radio 1.

The same as it did the first time it got radio playeage on there, with the beeb adding some sound effects to bleep out the 'fuck you' part, that bruno brookes failed to do back on the top 40 countdown back in 1993, and in the 5 live studio this week when despite being asked not to do so, zack 'chuckles' de la rocha managed to drop the f-bomb at least twice before the host cut away. I presume this time around though, there's a radio edit ready prepared.

They either cut off the entire end of the song or just bleep out the word Fuck.
I've heard both.
DR. Fishcake where did you find that?

Rage WON! I helped a lot with campaign on Facebook and it was never about the money, it was about toppling Cowell money making machine. Plus a Free Rage gig in Uk  ain't half bad. Also over 60k went to the charity known as Shelter. It's been an amazing set of days. Ironically CNN had one of the best articles about it.  . |
