PopTIPSTERmism

If you fancy a flutter on the all-Beatles Top 10 thing, or whatever, then maybe the second week in July would be a good one to go for - plenty of time for an iTunes-y announcement and July 6th is the 50th anniversary of Lennon meeting McCartney. (sez the Interwebs).

God only knows why I was thinking about that last night.

We've probably discussed this before, but....

Which is the best pop song (that had an official single release) never to reach #1 in the UK singles chart?

I only ask because this morning, my iPod randomly played one of the songs that I consider an all time great, and it occurred to me that it never reached #1 in the UK (confirmed by Wikipedia, although it did reach #1 in the US). The song in question is 'Black Velvet' by Alannah Myles. Can anyone better that?

RIP Popworld :(

By request of braisedbywolves, it's the Wasiscanon. Normally I would put a picture here but you will have to imagine Liam howling like 1xgibbon instead.

You get SEVEN ticks.
