Natalie Imbruglia‘s 1997 single, Torn, has been named as the song released in the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s that’s received the most plays in the 21st century.

Lifted from the Australian star’s debut LP, ‘Left Of The Middle’, the track – a cover of the track released by Danish singer Lis Sørensen as Brændt in 1993, before being issued in English by Ednaswap that year – tops Greatest Hits Radio’s latest Top 30 Countdown.

Commissioned as part of Greatest Hits Radio’s Vinyl Revival for Cash for Kids Day on Thursday (May 1), host Kate Thornton revealed the tune had beaten out Police classic Every Step You Take and Whitney Houston’s I Wanna Dance with Somebody on her afternoon show.

She said: “Natalie has finally had her revenge on Barbie Girl and has made it to No. 1! And what a meaningful chart this is, Torn has proved to be the true pick of the pops when it comes to the music broadcast across the airwaves.

“Proof yet again that the Greatest Hits of yesteryear continue to live on.”

Natalie added: ‘I can’t believe Torn has landed the No. 1 spot on the Greatest Hits Radio Top 30 rundown! Wow! […] Phil Thornalley congrats to you my friend and luckily I still love singing it!

“Thanks to all the listeners and see you at the summer shows!”
