Ah I guessed he'd pull it back, let's hope this scares Simon into making an effort with the winner's song in future.

C'mon Joe!!

YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!! :D

I told my brother, his face was a picture... he's been going on at how XF won't win for weeks! Wheyyyyyy.

I bought the single earlier today :)

:(

theres still tommorows sales and I doubt the Rage against the machine followers will give up easily
But hopefully

Oh no he didn't. :(

Is this official?

Ah bollox.

I'm happy for Joe like because he seems like a lovely lad, but didn't want either him or RATM to be #1 tbh!

I hope Simon at least lets them cover a Christmas song or even better gets an original song written for them to sing next year!

oh god. another year of people buying awful songs which in a couple of years time be embarressed to own anyway.. how sad.

This is just rumours but its reliable. Tomorrow he's predicted to sell loads of physicals as its the last weekend before xmas.

Yeah it's not confirmed yet and in today's midweek Rage are still #1 but the gap is narrower. I think Joe will probably make it but I wouldn't be really surprised if he didn't. Both will have good sales.

joe is 19,000 ahead because rage's downloads today apparently havn't been added to the figure yet

Very true. Terrible song.

apparently: RATM 306,115, X-FACTOR 297,192

I really really hope Joe is #1!

lets hope this is right!! :D
Go Joe!!!
