Duran Duran's 'Rio' has been voted the greatest music video of all time.

The 1982 promo features the band being teased by scantily-clad women on a beach in the Caribbean.

Bjork's robotic video for her 1999 hit 'All Is Full Of Love' took second place in the poll of around 40,000 viewers of MTV.

A-ha's 1985 video 'Take On Me' came third, while Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' followed in fourth.

Sigur Ros's surreal promo for 'Svefn-g-Englar' took fifth place, followed by Nirvana's 1991 video 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'.

Radiohead's 'Just Video', Jamiroquai's 'Virtual Insanity', Madonna's 'Like A Prayer' and OK GO's 'Here It Goes Again' rounded out the top ten.
