Have you ever done this? http://www.thisdayinmusic.com

It shows you what song was at No.1 on the day you were born.

(Go to 'Birthday No.1' at the top of the site).

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 Jackson in Australia

Some are better than others!

Can't be arsed to search, but I'm fairly sure mine was "I come from a land down under" last time I looked.

Nevermind, it was the [early] 80s, no chance of anything decent in the mainstream charts.... wink
