What was the Number One single on the day you were born?
« on: July 01, 2014, 06:38:18 PM »

Guys, I feel like starting a new thread so here goes..., What was the number one single on the day you were born???

It's easy to look up on the whole internet thingy...

My best mate had 'Hey Jude' by the Beatles... cool, such a classic and fantastic tune. What did I get on the day that I was popped out into this craphole we call a world..?

'Two Little Boys' by Rolf Harris... so not only was my 'birthday' song a crap song, it's a crap song by an evil sex offender!!!

 I think that God doesn't like me very much.

 :o

Baby Jump by Mungo Jerry for me. Damn, if I hung around for two days, I would have been "Hot  Love - T-reX"

Is is a crime to believe in something different?

I meant what I said at the time that I said it

Wow, there was a song that was worse than my 'birthday song'...  :o

Funny, I've seen Mr Dodd doing his comedy show at my local theatre a couple of times... bloody excellent.

Hopefully there won't be any new disclosures about him and 'kiddies'... I'm starting to get worried about watching anyone from UK 70's TV..  ???

Mine is horrific.  It would be on the U.S. chart

"Don't Worry, Be Happy - Bobby McFerrin"   ???

According to Google in the U.K. it was
"He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother - The Hollies"

Mainstream 1980's music was really,really,unbelievably crap. :o

Having had the misfortune to grow up with 80's music, You're right. The majority of it was absolute guff.

I'm happy with mine:
Tommy James and The Shondells - Mony Mony  (Guess that's the UK chart, not sure what the US was).
31-Jul-1968

And I like Don't Worry, Be Happy.
