Crazy Frog Outsells Coldplay Single

This is crazy, but kind of unfair in comparison: the Crazy Frog ringtone, about which we’re written in detail here before, appears to be jumping over Coldplay’s Speed of Sound towards this week’s number one spot in the UK charts.
Not content, however, with having Jamster’s popular-as-hellrintone on their mobiles, it appears droves of people – a predicted 150,000 this week alone – want Crazy Frog in their CD players too, and the tune is set to become the first mobile ringtone to make it to the top of the charts. Record shops yesterday reported that the single by German band Bass Bumpers, which mixes the ringtone with Axel F, Harold Faltermeyer’s theme tune from the film Beverley Hills Cop, is outselling Coldplay by a margin of around four to one.
