Duran Duran music video tops the lot
DURAN Duran's Rio has been named the greatest music video of all time.
The 1982 video, feat-uring the band on a Caribbean beach being teased by scantily-clad women and sailing a yacht around the islands, beat favourites including Michael Jackson's Thriller and Like a Prayer by Madonna to claim top spot in the MTV poll of around 40,000 viewers.
Bjork's video for her 1999 hit All Is Full of Love, where she played a robot in a steamy clinch with another robot, took second place.
Take On Me, the 1985 video from A-ha, where singer Morten Harket plays a comic book character, was third, followed by Jackson's spooky 1983 hit Thriller.
Fifth was Icelandic Sigur Ros's surreal video for Svefn-g-Englar.
