McElderry: 'Rage track is dreadful'

Joe McElderry has criticised Rage Against The Machine's track 'Killing In The Name'.
The X Factor winner, whose debut single 'The Climb' was released earlier this week, is currently involved in a chart battle for the Christmas number one after a Facebook group started a campaign for the rock band to reach the top spot.
After hearing the song for the first time, McElderry told The Sun: "They can't be serious! I had no idea what it sounded like. It's dreadful and I hate it. How can anyone enjoy this? Can you imagine the grandmas hearing this over Christmas lunch?"
McElderry added that he wouldn't buy the single and continued: "It's a nought out of ten from me. Simon Cowell wouldn't like it. They wouldn't get through to boot camp on The X Factor - they're just shouting."
However, the 18-year-old also claimed that he wasn't upset by the campaign.
"I think people are jumping on this to have a go at Simon and The X Factor rather than me," he said. "But Simon gives people a shot.
"I will be really disappointed if ['The Climb'] doesn't get to number one after all the effort I've put in to this and winning the show."
