Have you ever done this? http://www.thisdayinmusic.com

It shows you what song was at No.1 on the day you were born.

(Go to 'Birthday No.1' at the top of the site).

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

Some are better than others!

Bobby 'Boris' Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers - Monster Mash Sherry - The Four Seasons -Speedy Gonzales - Pat Boone (One of the great fun records from the year) -Let's Dance - Chris Montez (Ramblin' Rose was No.3) (Just outside the UK charts in our featured week) --"Devil Woman" - Marty Robbins --& that depends on whos chart your paying attention to
