    Oh well, counts me out then. I'm much too old.

    I have to say, whoever expected a band to play a song featuring that particular line live on BBC radio at approx 09:00 today and 'do what they told them' in terms of not mentioning the naughty word, might have been a little naive...

    Did they play it in full? :shock:

    .

    Nearly. They managed to shout the F You line three times before getting cut off.

    If it isn't about the song, then why Rage? Why not Public Enemy's "Don't believe the hype"? Or the birdy song?

    There were a lot of campaigns started on Facebook for a variety of different songs to be No. 1 instead of X Factor. This just happened to be the one that stuck. Why? Well we'll never really know.

    The sceptic in me thinks that this " facebook campaign" is a clever marketing ploy devised
    to shift units for Sony/BMG.

    Them ceegar smoking record company fatcats in their reclining leather chairs are clever so & so's....

    The Great Rock & Roll Swindle Part II ???

    I won't be buying it anyhoo, makes me think of ratty greebo's in knee length shorts pushing each other about at The Leadmill indie nights all them years ago... Plus geetar solo is cack.
