Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody Voted Best Video















It was one of the first promotional videos ever recorded and took just four hours to shoot on the band's rehearsal stage. Now Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody has been voted the UK's best music video of all time in a poll.

Nearly a third of those quizzed in the Q Magazine survey (30 per cent) said the groundbreaking video for the rock opera-style song was their top choice.

The video cost a paltry £4,500 to produce back in 1975 and is widely hailed at the music video that launched the MTV age.

The survey of 1,051 adults found that "the video relating to the song" was the most important factor in what made a good music video, with 56 per cent plumping for it.

Thirty two per cent chose "good choreography", making it the second most important factor, and, perhaps, an indictment to the standards of the school corridor dancing of Spears and her colourful gaggle.

Less than a fortnight ago, it was revealed, on the Radio 1 Chart Show, that the rock-operatic gem was the most played song since Radio 1's launch 40 years earlier.

The UK's Top 15 best music videos of all time are as follows:
