Do you know what was the number one single the week you were born?

[Raahh]

Or your DC's?

I found in a dusty box a copy of Ernie, the fastest Milkman in the West by Benny Hill, the other day. It was bought by my grandpa the week I was born. Was the xmas number one in 1971.

Ds (also a christmas baby)- Sound of the underground- Girls aloud (2002)
DD -Shakira - Hips don't lie. (August 2006)

I bought copies of both!
(I also bought Swear it again by Westlife , number one the week she was born).

I am very sad and geeky.

What was yours?

and it was i'm a believer by the monkees in the US

St Winifreds choir - There's no-one quite like Grandma.

Not quite as cool as the US No1, Tom Jones - It's not unusual

Hooray for Ambi- that is worse than Ernie, really it is!

Ooh just had a look at mine.

Mine was Terry Jacks - Seasons in the Sun (love the Westlife version of that )

DS1 was Lily Allen and Smile

DS2 was born last November and it was Hero by the X-Factor finalists (barf) - poor boy having to answer with that in years to come

ceebee i was listening to that on youtube about 30 mins ago, i used to think it was the saddest song ever!

Mine was "I Feel Fine" by the Beatles. Child of the 60s, me!

Trillian, you have never heard of Green Door by Shaking Stevens?

Oh god, I feel old. I was doing or had done my O levels when that came out.

Lou I assume you are talking about Seasons in the Sun and not Hero?? (or at least I hope you are )

Mungo Jerry, In the Summertime... makes me think of that horrible drink drive advert

I just missed out on John Lennon Imagine by a day!!!! Damn it!

Bohemian Rhapsody - the 1st time round!

Mine is a very good track - Metal Guru by T.Rex.
