Erasure’s classic hit A Little Respect has topped a Virgin Radio Pride listener’s poll to be named the station’s Ultimate Pride Anthem. 

The synth-pop duo beat out stars including Cher, Madonna, Kylie Minogue and Steps to bag the No. 1 spot with the single, lifted from their third studio album ‘The Innocents’.

It was closely followed by Christina Aguilera’s hit Beautiful, which finished in second place, and Steps’ cover of Bee Gees’ Tragedy at three. 

Numbers four and five go to Lady Gaga’s Born This Way and Spice Up Your Life by Spice Girls. 

While the Top 20 is packed with hits, there are a number of surprising omissions, with anthems like 9 to 5 by Dolly Parton and Shania Twain’s Man! I Feel Like a Woman missing out on a spot. 

The full Top 20, in reverse order, is as follows:

20. Frankie Goes To Hollywood – Relax
19. George Michael – Outside
18. Whitney Houston – I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)
17. Keala Settle – This Is Me
16. Weather Girls – It’s Raining Men
15. Queen – I Want To Break Free
14. Diana Ross – I’m Coming Out
13. Gloria Gaynor – I Am What I Am
12. Pet Shop Boys – It’s A Sin
11. Bronski Beat – Smalltown Boy
10. ABBA – Gimme Gimme Gimme
9. Britney Spears – Stronger
8. Cher – Believe
7. Madonna – Vogue
6. Kylie Minogue – Your Disco Needs You
5. Spice Girls – Spice Up Your Life
4. Lady Gaga – Born This Way
3. Steps – Tragedy
2. Christina Aguilera – Beautiful
1. Erasure – A Little Respect

Virgin Radio Pride UK is now live on DAB in London, online or via the Virgin Radio app.
