Marilyn Manson praises Rage campaign

Marilyn Manson has praised the campaign which saw Rage Against The Machine win the Christmas number one.

The rock group's single 'Killing In The Name' reached the top spot as a protest against The X Factor and its winner Joe McElderry.

According to The Sun, Manson is now hoping that the campaign becomes an annual tradition.

"I don't have anything against Simon Cowell and The X Factor," he explained. "It's just nice to see real music at the top of the charts."

Manson added: "Somebody should try to do it next year. Can I suggest one of Nine Inch Nails's best tracks called 'Starf**kers Inc'? We should try to make it a yearly thing."

In this week's charts, McElderry moved up to number one with his debut single 'The Climb' while Rage Against The Machine slipped to number two.
