The number 1 for 2015 has just been announced and 4.5 million people have voted 'Imagine' by John Lennon as the song of the year.

The rest of the top 5 is, usually, 'Bohemian Rhapsody', 'Hotel California', 'Stairway to Heaven' and 'Child in Time'.
wow, just goes to prove how 4.5 million people can be wrong. 'imagine' is the most nauseating song of all time. other opinions are valid. but still wrong.
Have you heard the AWB & Ben E King version of Imagine, I also think that the John Lennon version is dire but heard the aforementioned track and enjoy it much more than the original. Therefore it is the Artist/recording at fault here, not the song :whistle:

6.5 million votes this year - and it was the under-35 age bracket that put Queen back on top.
