Simon Cowell - Diabolus in Musica

[AHadley]

Well, it seems that the X-Factor winner is poised to be the Christmas Number 1 again this year...

Ah, hold on, I seem to be forgetting something!

Rage Against the Machine is the bookie's favourite to knock Cowell off the top spot

Thanks to a massive public uprising, the now 16-year-old song (currently at number 70 in the UK charts) is prepared to force its way straight to the top in the coming weeks. The campaign currently has three-quarters of a million people backing it, including several famous faces such as Phil Jupitus. The campaign angers Cowell, who has branded the campaign as 'stupid' and 'cynical'.



Is this the end of the reign of the tyrannical music mogul?

I certainly hope so,

The winners of musical "talent" shows tend to be one-hit-wonders (not to mention the last couple of X-factor winners were almost identical in my opinion).

The only reason the X-factor winners get the Christmas number one is because they have the gimmick of having been on tv.

Also, nice to see someone as big as Simon Cowell resorting to petty name calling.
