Britpop band Oasis had their seventh UK number one this month

The 1995 song topped the Virgin Radio poll of more than 8,300 listeners.

"It is the perfect song to stick your arm around your mate and sing out at the top of your voice after a few beers," said DJ Pete Mitchell.

Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody was in second place with Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven third.

Despite not taking the top spot Queen and the Beatles notched up the most entries in Virgin Radio's top 100, scoring eight entries each.
