Whatever happens to be the 2nd single from Postcards From A Young Man which would be due around that time, so I'm guessing Some Kind Of Nothingness for the colaboration brownie points

Got to get Nirvana's Radio Friendly Unit Shifter to the Christmas number one - so much more apt than that Rage Against the Machine nonsense

It wouldn't probably work sadly, but if we could get a Manics song to number one at Christmas, this has to be it, surely?! It's a fabulously cheesy Christmas song and I think non-Manics fans would potentially buy it for the pure nostalgia of a Christmas song in the same vein as Slade etc being at number one.

I think it's pretty obvious that it has to be The Intense Humming of Evil
