Duran Duran are great band and Rio surely deserves recognition. If some 40,000 people voted this to be the greatest ever, I agree. It is not that Thriller does not deserve to be no.1, but Rio surely brought something completely new at the time and brought happiness to the whole world...so...thumbs up to Duran Duran...enjoy the success!
