Fantastic idea. The number of sales it takes to make number one is dependent on sales across the chart. Maybe try going through the music section (email bands directly) in MySpace, introducing yourself as part of the 9-11 truth movement, giving them some info, offer to get them some DVD's or listing movies they can download. Tell them in a round about way that we need some songs to promote the movement. Maybe then put any songs that come out of it on a 9-11 MySpace site. |

I just emailed the OCC (The Official UK Charts Company) to ask how many sales it takes to get to number one;
My email;
Your site doesnt appear to publish the number of sales for each
single, whats up with that? Surely this is public information?
OCC reply;
No, sales data is not public information. This information is copyright
protected and there are no sites that are permitted to publish our sales
data
Best wishes
Darren Haynes.
So the best answer i can find is from their Q&A Section;
Q4. How many singles and albums are sold each week?
A. Sales of singles and albums vary from year to year and from month to month. On average 1m singles and 3m albums are sold each week.
As a rough average of the past decade, a Number One record has sold approximately 133,000 copies per week. Sales of 25,000 have been sufficient to reach the Top 10 - particularly during early January when sales are traditionally lower.
Hope this helped,

I reckon this could be the one
Bin Laden by Immortal Technique feat. Mos Def
Man you hear this bs they be talking? Everyday man it’s like these motherf@ckers is professional liars you know what I’m saying? man listen:
Bin Laden didn’t blow up the projects, it was you nigger tell the truth nigger
Bush knocked down the towers tell the truth nigger
Bush knocked down the towers tell the truth nigger
I pledge no allegiance nigger f@ck the president’s speeches
I’m baptized by America covered in leeches
The dirty water that bleaches your soul n’ facial features
Drowning you in propaganda that they spit through the speakers
And if you speak about the evil that the government does
The Patriot Act will track you to the type of your blood
They try to frame you and say you were trying to sell drugs
And throw federal indictments on niggers to show you love
This things is run by fake Christians fake politicians
Look at their mansions and look at the conditions you live in
All they talk about is terrorism on television
They tell to listen but they don’t really tell you their mission
They funded al Queda and now they blame the Muslim religion
Even though bin Laden was a CIA tactician
They gave him billions of dollars and they funded his purpose
Fahrenheit 9/11 that’s just scratching the surface
Bin Laden didn’t blow up the projects, it was you nigger tell the truth nigger
Bush knocked down the towers tell the truth nigger
Bush knocked down the towers tell the truth nigger
They say the rebels in Iraq still fight for Saddam
But that’s bs I show you why it’s totally wrong
Cuz if another country invaded the hood tonight
It’d be warfare through Harlem and Washington Heights
I wouldn’t be fighting for Bush or white Amerikkka’s dream
I’d be fighting for my people survival n’ self esteem
I wouldn’t fight for racist churches from the south my nigger
I’d be fighting to keep the occupation out my nigger
You ever clock someone who talked nonsense or look at you wrong?
Imagine if they shot at you and was raping your moms
And of course Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons
We sold him that * after Ronald Reagan’s election
Mercenary contractors fighting the new error
Corporate military banking off the War on Terror
They controlling the ghetto with the fear of attack
Trying to distract the fact that they engineering the crack
So I’m strapped like Lee Malvo holding the sniper rifle
N’ these bullets will touch yer kids n’ I don’t mean like Michael
Your body be sent to the morgue stripped down n’ recycled
I fire on house niggers that support you and like you
Cuz innocent people get murdered in the struggle daily
And poor people never get * n’ struggle daily
This aint no alien conspiracy theory this * is real
Written on the dollar underneath the Masonic seal
I don’t rap for dead presidents/I’d rather see the president dead/it’s never been said but I set precedence
Bin Laden didn’t blow up the projects, it was you nigger tell the truth nigger
Bush knocked down the towers tell the truth nigger
Bush knocked down the towers tell the truth nigger

So at 1.99 per single, that would cost Madonna.Inc around fifty grand (pennies in her empire) to push her material into the top ten and give it publicity for further sales and reinforce her corporate identity. Mmmm and the rich get richer! _________________ In our age there is no such thing as 'keeping out of politics.'

great vid from the bristol connection.
2 other music related bits of news.
1) the dixie chicks shot to number 1 album despit having their albums burnt a few years ago for saying they were embarrased to be from Texas like GB
2)Michael Franti, a very left wing performer, who last played in London at the Jazz Cafe, has booked Brixton Academy for a night in august. Either his new album is nonsense hot or his producers know something. _________________ "We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people.” Martin Luther King |

you wont get a 911 record /album top no matter how many downloads, even if you do the no radio station will touch it as they are all owned by media groups.
sandi thom song about revolition and 911 got to number one and then only got 2 - 3 plays all the next week on bbc. _________________ open you eyes and see the truth for yourself!
