X Factor Insider
Here's some great insight into the money-making skills of genius producer Simon Cowell. Before last year's X-Factor winner recorded her hit cover of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, Cowell bought the rights to the song, meaning he benefitted (to the tune of $250,000 a day) from Alexandra's version at number one, as well as Cohen's original and Jeff Buckley's cover - both of which zoomed back into the top 10. Genius.
Remember that when you're buying the first Joe McElderry single.
