" I want to be your sledgehammer
Why don't you call my name
Oh let me be your sledgehammer
This will be my testimony
Show me round your fruit cakes
'Cause I will be your honey bee
Open up your fruit cakes
Where the fruit is as sweet as can be"

During a game of Trivial Pursuit Saturday evening a rather interest question showed up. The question was simply, which is the most played video in the history of MTV?

I asked the question but at the same time I started to think about the answer myself. Michael Jackson, Madonna and Nirvana were among the artists/groups I though was the correct answer.

I was wrong however, to my huge surprise this was the number 1 song.

Peter Gabriel – Sledgehammer is found on the record “So” released in 1986.
