AC/DC hit top of down under chart

Rockers AC/DC romped home in a contest to find the best Australian single.

They were way out in front with their anthem Highway to Hell in the UK radio station Virgin's poll.

INXS were in second place with Need You Tonight and Men At Work third with Down Under.

Rolf Harris came in fourth with 60s novelty record Jake The Peg.

“There are some quality Australian acts around but it was good to see that Rolf scored highly,” said Virgin Radio’s Ben Jones.

“His version of Led Zep’s Stairway to Heaven was a masterpiece but the one everyone remembered was Jake The Peg.

The top 10 was:

1 AC/DC – Highway to Hell

2 INXS – Need You Tonight

3 Men at Work – Down Under

4 Rolf Harris – Jake The Peg

5 Midnight Oil – Beds Are Burning

6 Jet – Are You Gonna Be My Girl

7 Powderfinger – My Happiness

8 Natalie Imbruglia – Torn

9 Silverchair – Tomorrow

10 The Vines – Highly Evolved.
