Oh dear :laugh:

Someone said it was no2 on itunes?

:laugh:

If it makes the top 10...I will be obliged to play it at work. I will feel like a right idiot :joker:

hahaha, that's pretty funny

Disgrace really.

It's a bit sick if you ask me, although if people hate her that much to get a song from the 40's to the top of the charts so be it.

I'm with you.

I've heard it won't be counted in the actual charts. Not sure if that's true though.

It's pathetic,what will it achieve?I thought people had got no dosh,pfft.

I wouldn't buy it myself but I laughed - the same kind of laugh I give to a dark-humoured joke, it's on the same level really. It's gonna be pretty funny if Jameela has to announce this :joker:

Don't get why people would waste the money :conf2: all very petty

Not that I agree with it, but I dont see how it wouldnt be counted? Old songs get back in the charts all the time. last I heard 'lets get ready to rumble' was #1

79p really isn't that much

Just checked, it's at #2 on iTunes

It's only 51 seconds long, I think that's why

Yeah it probably would be counted. This would've been a better choice of song though. The Wicked Witch song is a bit idiotic.



(Not that I condone it, I don't care either way)

Just in time for the Chart Update

So they didn't play it as a new entry but they mentioned it when announcing the current top 10, Scott just said 'following an online campaign at #10 is Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead' and then moved on. Will be interesting to see what happens on Sunday...especially as the top 10 is streamed live and all the videos are played...not sure there is one for this though? But it'll mean we get to see Jameela's facial expressions when talking about it.

Last time this happened was when the sex pistols 'god save the queen' was kept from the top spot during the 1977 sliver jubilee.
Waiting for this to re-enter :love: ...

Well Newsbeat is now reporting on the story.

I don't think it'd be right if they refused to play it, the BBC is supposed to remain impartial and by not playing it you could argue they're teetering on the edge of taking a side in a political movement (if you can call it that). If this is what people want to buy and listen to, I'm sorry, but you're obliged to play it and live up to what your show sets out to do.

Classy.

noughting on big top 40

Let's hope it charts :joker:

i am in two minds about this

i think it's disgusting. no doubt a bunch of crowd followers buying it.
