Dio for Xmas number one!!!


The time for X factor winners at number one for Xmas must end!! The obvious choice is the aging Elfin rock god himself, Mr RONNIE JAMES DIO!!!!!

Witness his awesome ROCK POWAHH!!!:

So the plan is this, in the week before Christmas we each buy a copy of Holy diver on Itunes or whatever other download place you like that will count as a uk purchase, thus starting Dio's reign as the god of Xmas Rock!!!


Please join the group on Facebook - 'Dio for xmas number one!!!'


Why are we doing this?

This year as last year and the year before that, we the record buying public are expected to consume and lap up another X-Factor winner, taking them into our hearts and in turn taking them taking them to number one in the charts.

A month later, their fading star will be gone and forgotten, leaving a bitter taste in our mouths and a feeling of being cheated.

Christmas number ones, used to be memorable, evoking memories of good times, but now our children are exposed to the current X-Factor ‘talent’ thrust upon them as their forgettable Christmas number one.

This must stop and stop right now!

As a stand against commercialism, brain washing and all that is rotten in music, we want something different at number one this Christmas.

We want our Xmas number one back; we want the choice of the people….we want

Dio – ‘Holy Diver’ for Christmas number one.

We are looking for people to download ‘Holy Diver’ from ITunes or from any other similar digital music download site between the dates of Monday 15th – Saturday 20th December to launch an assault on the charts. If we get enough people to download the song, then hopefully we can get Dio to number one and give Simon Cowell a slap in the face and say ‘No more!’

It doesn’t matter if you don’t like Dio, Metal or Rock music in general, it’s about something more, a symbol, and who better to choose than the man who created the horned fingers salute of Rock, Ronnie James Dio.

We have so far had significant mentions on National radio twice and we are going to have some fun with our worthy cause.

Please join, tell your mates, and shout it from the highest place in the land. We can't have boring X-Factor 'talent' being our Christmas number one anymore.

If you have any ideas that we can pursue that may help this noble cause, please email me or post on the group wall. November will be a busy but fun recruitment month.
