While the campaign was focused on upsetting the Christmas chart, Rage's "Killing in the Name" still showed a strong showing the second week but they were easily beat by X Factor winner Joe McElderry's version of "The Climb," which was a hit for Miley Cyrus back in April (an eternity in the disposable pop market).
BBC news reports that "The Climb" sold 196,000 copies in its second week to push the US rock band's single Killing In The Name down to second place in the singles chart. The Rage song sold 130,000 copies.
