So the Rubberbandits outsold Ireland's Christmas No.1 Matt Cardle by a country mile but still didn't end up in the coveted top spot!
Why? Well, according to IRMA(Irish Recorded Music Association) single sales are weighted in favour of physical sales as opposed to downloaded sales....meaning that every single physical sale equals 6 downloads! Fair? I think not! A sale is a sale whether it comes on a cd, a download or taped to the back of a fiver surely? Not according to the powers that be!
So, hard luck Bandits! Maybe next year when you might have brought the horse inside.....you get my vote anyway!
