After thousands of votes, we have crowned the winner of Smooth Icons 2020.

Michael Jackson was voted by Smooth Radio listeners and SmoothRadio.com readers as the best artist of all time in the second Smooth Icons countdown.

Over 43,000 votes were cast in the poll, which saw last year's winner George Michael settle for second place.

The highest group was Queen at three, followed by the highest female solo artist Whitney Houston at four. The top five was rounded out by ABBA.

Smooth Icons aired on Smooth Radio on Monday (August 31), after an online vote asked listeners to vote for their favourite artists of all time.
