Gunning for U.K. Christmas No. 1 This Year: Silence

As you may recall, last year a Facebook campaign got Rage Against the Machine’s “Killing in the Name Of” to the coveted spot of U.K. Christmas No. 1. Well, this year, the Internet is back at it again, and in much more inspired fashion: John Cage’s “4’33”” — which is, of course, four minutes and thirty-three seconds of silence — is getting a push up the charts.
