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!
Asphodel
Sadly, nothing good:
You Keep Me Hanging On - Kim Wilde US
I Want To Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me) - Whitney Houston UK
Slice Of Heaven - Dave Dobbyn with Herbs AUS

This is great, though: http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/cont/Bits&am...top10fights.htm happy.gif

The Way You Do It - Pussyfoot

Ive never heard this song before, I tryed You-Tubing it, but came up with nothing! OMG
must have just been #1 for just one day. sad.gif
I bet someone has It on record somewhere! lol
heres the lyrics....

It's not the way that you do it
But how you do it to me
It's not the way that I want it
But how you want it to be

They say that one and one make two-oo
But you and me, we know it's three
They say that we won't be happy
I wish they'd get off our tree

Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya

You're my honey bee, my apple pie-hie-ie
You're my honey, I belong in your eye
Ooh-ooh, la-la-la-la-lah
Ooh-ooh, la-la-la-la-lah

It's not the way that you do it
But how you do it to me
It's not the way that I want it
But how you want it to be

It's so right, I know
Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya (hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya (hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
(Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)

Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya

(Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya, hi-ya)
Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya
(Ooh-na-na-hi-ya-hi-ya, hi-ya)
Ooh-na-na, Ooh-na-na-hi-ya
