Robbie Williams, Whitney Houston, Coldplay, Prince and the ultimate Dirty Dancing track rounded out the top ten.

Andrew Ridgeley accepts our award for Magic Radio's Best Song Ever:

"The Best Song Ever Award, that is a truly immense accolade one of which I’m very proud, and George would have been similarly extraordinarily moved I think to know that this song, one of the jewels in the crown, is so much loved by the people and that was always the mark of success for us as songwriters and for him as an artist. So thank you very much.”
