The way things are going
You’re gonna crucify me
(My birth date song, so just a few years ago..)

Honeyroar · 09/09/2020 09:43

Ps, I’ve had flouncing Babooshka going round my head to the tune of Waltzing Matilda all morning!🤣

Fleamaker123 · 09/09/2020 10:03

😂

And every night, every day.
I'm gonna say.
I'm gonna get you, I'm gonna get you.
Look out boy, 'cause I'm gonna get you.

Here's mine, it's the US number 1 cos the UK one was an instrumental!

It might be a duet with Marvin Gaye

My Birthday no 1

And when you smile the world is brighter
You touch my hand and I'm a king
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
Your love for me is everything

My birthday number 1:

I'll never forget the moment we kissed
The night of the hay ride

Just the second line gives you an idea of how old I am...

And I've just found, to my horror, that Ted Heath and his Music were number 6!

ThatLibraryMiss · 09/09/2020 13:20

@Fleamaker123, I found mine here - you just change the date (and wait - it took a while for the result).

You touch my hand and I'm a king
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
Your love for me is everything

That's the wonder of you - Elvis

And your number one is Memories are made of this . Is it by someone like Perry Como?

shinynewapple2020 · 09/09/2020 13:32

Or is it called Magic Moments

CoffeeBeansGalore · 09/09/2020 15:57

@shinynewapple2020 Correct 😊👍

Here’s my birthday one:

I can’t hide
I can’t hide
I can’t hide

shinynewapple2020 · 09/09/2020 17:01

Don't recognise yours @FlouncingBabooshka I'll have a think.
Here's mine

Pride can hurt you too
Apologise to her

(From a very long time ago but a well known song )

FlouncerInDenial · 09/09/2020 18:07

I wanna hold your hand, FlouncingB?

NeedToKnow101 · 09/09/2020 18:43

This is for another birthday boy 1980

I'm gonna get myself 'cross the river
That's the price I'm willing to pay
I'm gonna make you stand and deliver
And give me love in the old-fashion way woh

FlouncingBabooshka · 09/09/2020 18:51

That’s it @FlouncerInDenial 👍🏼

@Fleamaker123 - correct! 💪🏼🙌🏼

Honeyroar · 09/09/2020 20:00

@shinynewapple2020 correct with The ballad of John and Yoko. Can’t stand the pair, can’t believe it’s my birthdate no 1!
