So RATM are Christmas number one! Yes, yes. I know all the money goes to Sony/Simon Cowell anyway and the rich are getting richer blahblahblah BUT:
1. A whole bunch of new people are listening to some quality metal
2. Shelter have got £70k-ish from the people who bought the single, plus a share of RATM's profits
3. Point proven that the unexpected can happen when enough people get behind an idea.
And I think those things are nice. :)

Also, it's the first time I've known a "facebook group" actually get a result :)
