See what song was #1 on the day you were born
Have you ever done this?
Some people believe our lives are profoundly influenced by whatever pop song was number one on the day we were born.
On the day Heather Mills (the ex Mrs McCartney) was born (12th Jan 1968) it was Hello Goodbye by The Beatles!
My number #1's are:
'You're So Vain' by Carly Simon in the US
'Long Haired Lover From Liverpool' by Little Jimmy Osmond in the UK
'Ben' by Michael Jackson in Australia
See which songs you get
This day in Music

Very cool site! Mine was "Satisfaction" by The Stones in the US
"Mr Tambourine Man" by The Byrds in the UK
A Walk In The Black Forest by Horst Jankowski :shrug in Australia
Re: See what song was #1 on the day you were born
Oh boy!
For me, it was "Ain't that a Shame" by Pat Boone in the US. :whistle
In the UK it was "Rose Marie" by Slim Whitman. :smokin
And in Aus., they did not even track the songs until a few months after I was born. :eek
I doubt I have ever heard either song sung by these dudes.

I've never heard of this song!

I just looked it up on Youtube, and no, it doesn't ring a bell. *rimshot* It's pretty square, and I'm all for monogamy. :shrug
I'm jealous of all the Beatles results.
