Simon Cowell Beats Slipknot's Corey Taylor and Biffy Clyro

(Rock AAA) Simon Cowell has secured the UK's Christmas Number One slot despite brave efforts from Corey Taylor and Biffy Clyro fans. The X-Factor boss spent an extra �1m on making sure he won this year's race, after losing out to Rage Against the Machine last year.

And by allowing gameshow winner Matt Cardle to cover a Biffy Clyro song, he managed to divide and conquer fans of real music, who were forced to choose between backing Biffy's original version of Many of Horror and Corey's track XM@$.

Many of Horror reached No10 while XM@$ hit No37 � which is still a significant result for a metal artist like Taylor.
