McElderry set for number one next week

Joe McElderry's single 'The Climb' is now outselling Rage Against The Machine's UK Christmas number one song by a margin of two to one, a music retailer has said.

Rap metal act Rage beat the 'X Factor' champ to take the coveted spot on Sunday, with their anti-establishment anthem 'Killing In The Name', which was backed by an internet campaign.
