U2 song One contains the nation's favourite lyric - "One Life, with Each Other Sisters, Brothers" - according to a poll of a music TV station's viewers.

Cult band Nirvana follows in third place with Smells Like Teen Spirit and the line "I Feel Stupid and Contagious, Here we are Now, Entertain Us".
