Bit of fun here, have you ever done this? [url]http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/birthdayno1
It shows you what song was at No.1 on the day you were born.
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 Jacskon in Australia
Some are better than others!

Just to let you know...If you were born before 1952, you can now go back to 1946 to see the # 1.
