'Ding-Dong! the Witch Is Dead' climbs British charts in wake of Thatcher's death

The Iron Lady, Margaret Thatcher, passed away earlier this week after suffering a stroke. In wake of her death, Judy Garland's "Ding-Dong! the Witch Is Dead" from the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz has been climbing the British charts.

Part of the catalyst for the song burning up the charts was a Facebook group (and now a subsequent Twitter account), urging people to download the single and updating them on the staus of its climb. As of this morning, the Judy Garland version had managed to crack the Top 10 in the UK iTunes Store.
