The tragic passing of Michael Jackson has seen a massive surge in his record sales.

Everyone's been buying his hits, but because there are just so many, he has narrowly missed out on getting into the top 10 this week.

Man In The Mirror entered the charts at number 11 and four other Jacko singles made the top 40, but we don't think that's good enough. We want Jacko for number one!

You can download Man In The Mirror (and Jacko's other hits) from Napster and Virgin Media users also get one month free.

Ironically, it's another Jackson at number one, La Roux, who is fronted by singer Elly Jackson.

What's your favourite Michael Jackson song? What would you like to see at number one?

I don't get it. Why should someone get to number one because they die? If he had not died would people have been buying at this rate? No.
