This is cool...find out what the number one song was when you were born. (If you were born before '52, you're out of luck)

A little bit of math tells me that my biological parents were grooving to

For me The Number 1 single was: The Beatles with Billy Preston - "Get Back" and the Number 1 album was: Bob Dylan - "Nashville Skyline".

Unfortunately I'm not a fan of either the Beatles or Dylan.

And I'd prefer not think about what my parents were grooving to.

The Beatles "Hello Goodbye" was the number 1 single the day I was born. I was born in the 60's, odds are if you were born in the 60's a song by the Beatles was number one the day you were born.

On a side note, the number 1 soundtrack was "Sound of Music".

My parents were apparently grooving ( :obscene-sexualspermmagenta: :obscene-sexualspermmagenta: :obscene-sexualspermmagenta: :obscene-sexualspermmagenta: :obscene-sexualspermmagenta: ) to Englebert Humperdink's "Release Me". Or the The Monkees as they had the number 1 album.

#1 single - "Why" by Anthony Newley

#1 Album - original soundtrack to South Pacific

It doesn't go back far enough for my parent's birthdays.

I do share a birthday with Vincent Furnier and Adolph Sax, who invented the saxophone. I knew the first but not the second.

Neither my wife nor I are generally fans of 70s music, so we didn't recognize the song from my birthday. :(
I'd be SHOCKED if everyone didn't know the one from my wife's! ;)

Mine was: The Stylistics - "Can't Give You Anything (But My Love)"
Wifey's was: Carl Douglas - "Kung Fu Fighting"

Anybody know my song?

The single was: Elvis Presley - "Wooden Heart"
The album was Elvis Presley - "G.I. Blues"

Probably the one Elvis Presley song I have never heard of.

I want a new birthday. That sucked. :Boo:
