What was Number One when you were born?

http://mothership.somethin-else.com/hit40uk1000 - it tells you what was the number one song in the UK on the day that you were born. Mine was 'Lady in Red' by Chris de Burgh, ugh

I prefer this site:

You can check both the UK and US charts.

Raphael

UK: Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart - Marc Almond with Gene Pitney
US: WHen I'm with you - Sherrif

Never heard of either of them...

Piste

Hehe that's pretty cool! Number one in the UK on the 7th March 1991 was Should I Stay or Should I Go- The Clash

In the US it was Someday- Mariah Carey

Thats cool. One good, Every Rose has its Thorn - Poison, and ... sigh, Mistletoe and Wine by the one, the only, Cliff Richard.

You want a horrible thought, see what was number one nine months before your birthday. Odds are...

NUmber one on the charts 9 months before my birthday was: Theme From S'Express - S'Express. How disturbing.
