On the third position was U2's 1991 hit rock ballad 'One', which was voted as having Britain's Best Lyric.
According to the Sun, the fourth position was obtained by famous British rock band Oasis' song 'Wonderwall', which was at number 99 in the UK's list of best-selling singles in 2005, and frequently appears in "best-of" single polls.

YEah but all the other songs are old, and Chasing Cars is a very new song, so its most known and people like it so thy probably voted for it. In 5 years would Chasing Cars top it?

Who knows? It's been 8, almost 9 years since Iris came out, and it's #2. I'm not saying Chasing Cars is that good--There's a grammatical error in it!! I swear, "If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?" Wouldn't it be "lie" all three time?--But it's possible that it'll be that popular.
