Midge Ure. Once described in a letter to Private Eye as ‘Scotland’s most ridiculous moustache… a man whose later album was called ‘The Gift’, presumably because it was so rubbish you had to give it away’.

A bit of research throws up some other song which never made #1
David Bowie – ‘Jean Genie’ (1972). - ‘Long Haired Lover From Liverpool’
The Verve – ‘Bittersweet Symphony’ (1997). - Puff Daddy and Faith Evans ‘I’ll Be Missing You’.
David Bowie – ‘Modern Love’ (1983). Culture Club’s ‘Karma Chameleon’.
The Rolling Stones – ‘Brown Sugar’ (1971).Tony Orlando And The Dawn’s ‘Knock Three Times’
