Margaret Thatcher's death has prompted the launch of a campaign to get 'Ding Dong! The Witch is Dead' to number one.
The song from the classic 1939 film The Wizard of Oz starring Judy Garland was written by EY Harburg and composed by Harold Arlen.
The "Make 'Ding dong the Witch is Dead' number 1 the week Thatcher dies" Facebook campaign was originally set up in 2007
The song's lyrics trended on Twitter throughout Monday (April 8) following Thatcher's death at the age of 87.
Garland's version has risen up to as high as number 26 on the iTunes download chart as of Tuesday morning.
However, the campaign asks people to download Ella Fitzgerald's version, as Garland's original may be too short to qualify for the official chart.
On Amazon, Garland has climbed to number three, while Fitzgerald has climbed to number eight.
Baroness Thatcher's death has sparked a fresh debate about her legacy and how she should be remembered for her time as Conservative leader.
While the likes of David Cameron and Lord Alan Sugar praised the former Prime Minister, stars such as Morrissey have been critical.
Several hundred people took to the streets in south London on Monday evening to celebrate Thatcher's death with alcohol and dancing.
