If I didn't already own it on several different compilations and best-of's, I'd contemplate it.

I'm not buying it again. 5 or so times is enough... it's not THAT great :-)

It's not an attempt to make you buy it for the sake of it, it's an attempt to send the song to UK No. 1[:)] And anyway, only UK buyers seems to be able to get it, so...

... don't get me wrong.. its a great idea. Just putting my personal situation across.

I'd encourange anyone from the UK, sepcificlaly if they may like the song but never purchased it to do so!

You guys better get a move on. I'm spearheading my own Facebook campaign to get John Lennon's "Woman" and Joe Dolce's "Shaddup You Face" back to #1.

There is already a Facebook group about Joe Dolce so there's no need to bother[:)]

Anyway, "Vienna" seems to be rather close to at least UK Top 40 right now (as is the new live CD/DVD), so the campaign wasn't entirely pointless[:)]
