Fans of Arctic Monkeys have named the band's 2013 release 'Do I Wanna Know?' the band's best ever single in a new Gigwise poll. See the results below.
One of the band's most recent singles, 'Do I Wanna Know?' was voted the fan favourite with a score of 8.8/10, with fellow AM album track 'R U Mine?' and early single 'When the Sun Goes Down' following closely behind.
'Do I Wanna Know?' was the official lead single from AM, Arctic Monkeys' fifth studio album, which was released in September to commercial success and critical acclaim, being nominated for this year's Mercury Prize. The album marked a departure in the Sheffield band's sound, with 'Do I Wanna Know?' perfectly showcasing their new R&B influence.
Three of the most unpopular singles, with 'The Hellcat Spangled Shalalala' being voted the worst, are all taken from the band's previous record, Suck It and See, which sold nearly half the number of copies AM did in its first week.
The band's classic debut, 'I Bet You Look Good On the Dancefloor' was voted the fifth favourite single by fans.
