Asteptand miracolul Acum, cand toata lumea iti trimite, avand in minte o coloana sonora cu dulcegarii de Sarbatori si colinde, urari gen liniste, pace si cate altele, eu ma bucur (asa mi se tot repeta, ca trebuie sa ma bucur de lucrurile marunte) ca in competitia de desemnare a single-ului de Craciun din UK, stabilit dupa numarul de download-uri, Rage Against the Machine au luat fata cantecului obisnuit, siropos al unui produs X-Factor (un fel de Megastar de la ei). O campanie intensiva pe Facebook a adus o piesa de revolta impotriva sistemului, Killing in the Name, pe primul loc, in detrimentul unui obscur Joe McElderry. If the Christmas No 1 turns out to be an angry, confrontational rock track that concludes with an explosion of f-words, it'll be precisely the shot in the arm the charts have been sorely lacking the last few years: something that puts a genuine smile on the face of millions of people; sensitive people, thoughtful people; people alienated by the stifling cloud of grinning mechanical pap farted into their faces on a weekly basis by cocky, clattering, calculating talent shows such as X Factor. It would give these people hope. Maybe only in a very small and silly way, but still: a tiny spoonful of hope. And what could be more Christmassy than that?
