The top ten singles in full:
1. (-) Joe McElderry: 'The Climb'
2. (-) Rage Against The Machine: 'Killing In The Name'

Nothing wrong with going for a Pint.
Ask him Why he does not do a DTS 5.1 disc
or SACD disc.
As they are the best in Music today.
It puts you in the Studio with them.

Joe isn't the Irish Christmas number 1 for 2009, though. The Irish chart is annonced on a Friday, which means the next chart will be revealed on Christmas day. Rage could still steal it.
