Rihanna has been given a boost ahead of her return to the music scene - her track Umbrella has been voted the best of the decade in a new survey.

The 21 year old has admitted she's wracked with nerves as she prepares for a show in London next Monday - her first solo concert since her violent bust-up with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown in February.

But the pop star will be pleased to know her British fans have picked her song and music video for Umbrella as the best of the last 10 years, beating competition from Britney Spears and Madonna.

The top 10 list, which was voted for by BT media customers, is as follows:

1. Rihanna featuring Jay-Z - Umbrella

2. t.a.T.u - All The Things She Said

3. Avril Lavigne - Sk8r Boi

4. Britney Spears - Everytime

5. Oasis - The Importance Of Being Earnest

6. Will Young - Leave Right Now

7. Katy Perry - Hot N Cold

8. Amy Winehouse - Back To Black

9. Madonna - Hung Up

10. Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head.
