I read this article through the reprint of the Sunday Morning Post last Saturday, it was originally from the Independent. While the Brit awards step in the 25th year, there is a list for selecting the greatest British single in the past. Not all tracks are great. But if I could vote for the final five; here are my choices:
Angels - Robbie Williams (Dec 1997; Chart position: 4)
London Calling - The Clash (Dec 1979; Chart position: 11)
True - Spandau Ballet (Apr 1983; Chart position: 1)
We Are The Champions - Queen (Oct 1977; Chart position: 2)
Wuthering Heights - Kate Bush (Feb 1978; Chart position: 1)
