Who was Top of the Pops when you were born?

mike65

I dunno why this occured to me but what the hell...

What song was Top of the Pops when you entered in to the this
world?.

I arrived as Tom Jones was No 1 with Its Not Unusual.

Mike.

Elvis Presley - Way Down was number one apparently. Never heard of the song.

I'm devestated that I missed Baccara and "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie" by two weeks. Two weeks more and it would have explained everything

And when I was being conceived I can only guess that my parents were rocking the two backed beast to that ol quirky up-beat Christmas funster of a song - Merry Christmas Everybody by Slade. I apologise wholeheartedly.

Gee that song has a lot to answer for.

'fraid so. Accordning to this site, mine is "Angel Fingers" by Wizzard, but according to a book of charts I used to have it was "Young Love" by Donny Osmond.

I know for a fact that Gary Glitter was playing in Dublin the night i was born. He would have fancied me something rotten then.

Guy Incognito

Not bad! At least I wasn't born a month earlier...Bucks Fizz.

Toto - Africa was #1 in the U.S.
