I just found out that when my crush was born, the no.1 song was 'Cinderella Rockefeller'- I love it !!

(One for the teenagers Grin)

Do you like your own no.1 birth song ?

Pink Floyd, Another Brick In The Wall.

I love that that's mine. It's fighting The Man but in a cool laid back kinda way. And as a Christmassy baby, I'm relieved it's not Cliff.

I've never thought to look this up before, and it turns out mine is Blockbuster by The Sweet! Fabulous 😀

Mine is probably the safest in terms of giving my DOB away. Everything I do Bryan Adams 😄Hate it.

I much prefer 'Thought I'd Died And Gone To Heaven' which came out a few months later

Mine was Sunny Afternoon by the Kinks. Which is cool. I can live with that!

LeFeu · 20/03/2023 19:47

Do they know it’s Christmas 😂 so could be one of several years!

WinterMusings · 20/03/2023 19:49

It's an ok song that most people over maybe 45 will sing along to on the radio, toe tapper if it's time, but given it was 1969 (save you the effort I just turned 54). I have no idea how it got to number one!

I hate my birth song. And in an odd twist, the band reformed decades later and my ex ended up being their (admittedly much younger than them) drummer.

Status Quo?

Worthless1 · 20/03/2023 19:54

Just googled mine; Boris Gardinar "I want to wake up with you". I had no idea what it was, so I had a listen on YouTube and recognised it. I like it!

mewkins · 20/03/2023 19:55

Hit me with your rhythm stick. YES

1986 was a great year for music

Save All Your Kisses for Me by Brotherhood of Man (maybe explains why I have always been such a Eurovision fan!))
