[EDGE]

Im sure practiacally everyone knows about this already but 6 music just interviewed Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine about the whole situation.  Its a VERY good interview!..

It's about 5 minutes long and starts 1hour 10 minutes in to this BBC iPlayer clip..

must buy the Rage song, which one is it? or will that be blatently obvious when I load up iTunes store?

[EDGE]

its called Killing in the Name !!

it's number one on the itunes charts

[FUBAR]

but i've already got that song...

[Fieldy]

Seems daft as I have the whole back catalogue, but I think it's for charity?

[EDGE]

just stump up and buy it... its only 99p on itunes...

its partly for charity, Tom Morello said he's donating a portion of the royalties to a UK based youth music charity.

The main reason for buying it is to keep it at the top of the charts tso its the Christmas number one instead of that x factore shite!!

70p on play.com

get back at Cowell for destroying the music industry

but i've already got that song...

Did you really just say that?

Dude, seriously... 65p for the alternative cause!! Most real music fans will have that one already but it's never been about buying the song, its supporting alternative music, its doing it for the power of the internet and a social networking experiment - will the music industry finially embrase the technology that is the internet like TV has (iPlayer, 4OD, TV Shack, YouTube etc) and the Movie industry is shortly following.  The music industry are the only ones still trying to bind everyone with their old business model of:

WE PLAY, YOU LISTEN, YOU BUY, WE MAKE MONEY, BANDS MAKE FA, AND DON'T EVEN THINK OF LISTENING TO A NEW BAND - WE TELL YOU WHAT'S POPULAR...

RATM!!!!!!!!!!

[Cunning Plan]

We are number one right now gents

It's something crazy like 29p on amazon download.

Was a great song to finish the gig on when I played in a covers band. People just digg the massive drop-d riffage!

Can someone translate that into English for me?

To be honest, you say you are braking the mold, but you are all being sheep(s) buying that rubbish that isn't even music.

Joe is a great singer and if people buy enough copies of his song and he beats current music than he deserves to be number 1.

Why don't you all just grow up? So many of you say that these bands swear against the establishment, but you are all only 5 years old.

They think they are cool because they listen to music where every other word is a swear word.

正直なところ、型にブレーキをかけるが、ヒツジの購買均一ではない音楽ではないであるすべてその屑であることを言う。
ジョーは彼が第1であることを値するよりすばらしい歌手および人々が彼の歌の十分なコピーを買えば彼打つ現在の音楽をであり。
なぜすべて公正育たないか。 あなたがたのそう多くはこれらのバンドが確立に対して誓うが、であるすべて5ただ歳と言う。
彼らは考えるその他すべての単語が不敬な言葉である音楽を聞くので涼しいことを。
