OP
OP
to do that annoying quoting myself thing
at no point was i comparing that to this, i was just stating the Edumnd Burke qutoe can cover other situations.
my above quote covers that. at no point did i compare them, i was talking about the quote. i'd also like to add Bullying to my list. Nobody is under threat as such, would you not do something if you saw somebody getting consistently upset/annoyed by someone who thinks they are better than everyone else?
maybe its just me who would.
anyways, like i've said, im exaggerating to make a point about a quote.its irrelevant to the fact that all the campaign for number 1 is trying to achieve is to make sure it's no longer a certainty the x-factor would be number 1. it's achieved that.

To anyone sat on the fence, the idea of this isn't to get at Simon Cowell (though interestingly enough he is throwing a complete hissy fit by all accounts) it's to stop the constant dominance of the talentless drivel that is churned out en masse just in time for the Christmas number one every year. Does anyone remember Steve whatshisface?
Anyway, original RATM chartage...simply awesome (and this was on Radio One live when the song first came out)
