'Angels' by Robbie Williams was voted the best single which should have been a number one but never was, in a poll for music channel VH1. The ballad, which reached No.4 in December 1997, beat Savage Garden's Truly, Madly, Deeply and Aerosmith's 'I Don't Want To Miss A Thing.' Other songs said to have deserved a number one included Madonna with Ray of Light, Beautiful Stranger, Crazy For You and Material Girl, Bon Jovi with Always and Oasis with Wonderwall and Live Forever. Sir Cliff Richard's hit 'Millennium Prayer' was voted the worst number one single of all time.
