However there is a justgiving site where people have been donating to Shelter as well as buying the track. It was setup by Tracy Morter, the person who kicked this whole issue off...:

Fuck Cowell, we won't do what he tells us...
If you like Joe, buy his record - if not; don't!
It's not a hate campaign - it's an affirmation of music that a lot of people have enjoyed for quite some time!
A good song at the top of the charts for once, I am impressed :-p

"Rage Against The Machine couldn't fill Wembley now. I think Joe will".
Hmmm. Let's just see how fast the tickets for that free gig go and we'll see. X Factor winners, coming soon to a supermarket opening and bargain bin near you.
I can beat that.
Last week he also said something along the lines of "they're (RATM) taking the fun out of the Christmas number one race".
I don't care much for RATM, or the song. They're an ok band and it's an ok song, but anything to beat the x factor is ok in my books. :thumb:
I think Joe saying he thought Killing In The Name Of was absolutely dreadful was a low blow though.. all is fair in love and . . music. He didn't get number 1, because it turns out he wasn't quite good enough to convince people to buy his song over RATM. If he was mindblowingly good, people would have bought his single, and he would be number 1. He should just be happy he is number 2, the ungrateful scrote.
RATM were only chosen because of their song name really, regardless of who owns what in the music biz its nice to see someone holding a guitar on the christmas number one for once and doing crazy stuff like playing an instrument :crazyeyes
I loved how Cowell said it was not a big deal about the christmas number 1... but gearing his show for the last 7 years towards getting the christmas number 1 slot...
Interesting thoughts
Haha, that's genius. Irony is clearly lost on that moron.
If anything, it actually created a race for the number one spot.
I'll bet my grandmother that Joe won't have a music career in 5 years. Rage had a music career before him and will have one afterwards.
Also funny is this: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/getrageoffnumber1spot/signatures
Though sadly it'll probably be taken off, given there are names such as "Adolf Hitler", "Bell End", "ICanSmellYourCunt" and my personal favourite, "Bitter Moaning Faced Loser That Can't Face That Someone That's Not A Glorified Karaoke Singer Wasn't Gifted The Inevitable Number 1 At Xmas :-(".
