I don't do these very often but this one (gakked from [livejournal.com profile] iferion) was sort of interesting.

What song was Number 1 on the day you were born?

At least mine was a song I'd heard of. :-)

Bobby Darin, "Mack the Knife"


Share yours if you dare.

UK Number One: Eurythmics - "There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart)"
US Number One: Paul Young - "Everytime You Go Away"

The one I infinitely prefer is what was number one on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart: Huey Lewis and the News - "The Power of Love"

:D

Oh man, I remember when that Paul Young song was on the radio every 5 minutes!

I've never heard of the UK song that was No.1 when I was born: Cliff Richard and The Shadows - Travellin' Light

ROFLCOPTERS.

Cliff Richard is a bit of a living legend in the UK. He's sold more singles in the UK than anyone else, he had at least one number one UK single for five consecutive decades, and he's second only to Elvis Presley in terms of number of weeks on the UK charts and has sold more than 250 million records...but he hasn't been 'cool' since the early 1970's. Generally speaking, you're not missing much, particularly with that song.

Mine was a classic, too. Puttin On The Ritz.

Oh, fun! For some reason that song always makes me really _listen_ to it - every time I hear it I want to understand the story.

I looked it up on Wikipedia...I had no idea it was from an opera!

Thanks for the meme!
