we need to get the mods/admins on board with this if it's going to be successful.... *hint hint hint*

Meh...seems a bit silly to me.

Oh well, it takes all sorts...

nice one! come on boys and girls lets do it!

i said that were gonna do it next week? is that ok with everyone?

Next week, sure! More votes for SU though!

Enough people downloaded Running Up That Hill by Placebo for them to make a video even though the song was an old b side...so it's possible to get some good attention for songs. I just don't see CE doing it.

SU would be great to give a full release to...like, when 28WL is out on DVD.

by the way i arent trying to take the credit for the idea on .mu im linking back to this page lol

so....

23000

well theres no harm in campainging early, as long as people all buy the track next week.

haha yeh monday is the big push!

Haha better cough up everyone. xD

here's a swell idea, if you want an unknown muse song to be played on the radio to "give the public the wiggins" Why don't you just call up a request line on the radio? :S

thats not the point

my local radio don't even play Muse if they are requested

the point is if u get a random song to number one...it would go down in history, it would be on the news... it would be funny....

to request a song by phone... is pointless

Someone requested Plug in Baby on Radio 1 once.

The DJ didn't seem to be impressed or anything.

well what is the point then?! :S

The point is get Muse some extra recognition, demonstrate the power of fans and befuddle the people who run the chart, and the nation in general!

extra recognition?! they just played wembley for Christ's sake, after that, if anyone heard muse at number 1 they'd most likely think "figures, muse are pretty big now"

not "my what an interesting new band!"


ah well, it sounds a laugh, but I don't really feel what the hype of it all is really.
