Crazy Frog Axel F Single Topping UK Charts
Crazy Frog could be the No.1 Song this year on the UK Charts. Hurrah for that .
A song featuring Jamster`s much-criticized Crazy Frog ring-tone headed to the top of Britain`s music charts.
Jamster is spending a whopping $13 million this month advertising the cell phone tone in Britain, which sparked hundreds of complaints about the frequent commercials backing the tone that many find annoying.
Even so, an estimated 150,000 people downloaded the tone this week alone, The Guardian reported.
People also flocked to London-based music retailer HMV to buy the Bass Bumpers song that mixes the ring-tone with "Beverly Hills Cop" theme song "Axel F."
HMV said the German band`s "Crazy Frog Axel F" was outselling Cold Play`s "Speed of Sound" 4-1.
"Given the amount of exposure and advertising Crazy Frog has had, it shouldn`t be that surprising that it`s heading for No. 1," an HMV spokesman said. "The only real issue is whether the record label can press enough copies to meet demand."
