I'd go for Perfect Kiss by New Order, but glad someone else recognises quality of Planet Earth. I prefer Karma Chameleon, but my actual favourite is Time,but I dont think its that well known.

I remember Time; Planet Earth was Duran Duran's first single I think. I'm not sure they ever bettered it although I liked A view to a kill.
