Sandi Thom Squirms Out Of Webcast Fraud Allegations

In a break between the ‘Top of the Pops’ rehearsals, Sandi Thom addressed reports claiming the webcasts had been a PR exercise engineered by her record label. “People are bound to make up little conspiracy theories because we live in a world of hype, so it’s not surprising that some people think this is hype as well,” she told The Glasgow Daily Record in a non-denial denial. “I know the truth and the people around me know the truth. At the end of the day, the song has been a success without no Radio 1 airplay. There is something about the song people love and that’s more important than anything else.” Thom wasn’t then asked to explain how she managed to pay for the equipment and bandwidth necessary to stream to 70,000 or more web concertgoers.
