Too busy to watch telly? Sunday's top videos revealed...
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver February 8th, 2005
Yeah yeah, so this should have gone up yesterday... I was busy, okay?

On Sunday night, Channel 4 broadcast the top 100 pop videos as voted for by you, the British public. T'was presented by that wanksack Jimmy Carr, so those that missed it at least kept their dinner down. But, since you wanna know who came top, here's the final top ten:

1. Michael Jackson - Thriller
2. Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer
3. A-ha - Take On Me
4. Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
5. Madonna - Like a Prayer
6. Robbie Williams - Rock DJ
7. Michael Jackson - Billie Jean
8. The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
9. Madonna - Vogue
10. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit

Wow, didn't see that one coming... and there was me sticking everything I had on 'Come To Daddy' romping home. Guess television demons and evil estate kids just don't click with Robbie-loving chavettes.

The full chart is here. I think.

DiScuss: Go on then, what are your favourite promo vids of all time?
