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

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

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

Anyone else notice that this could be the UK Top 40?

It is definitely from the UK because Lavabe's "Wooden Heart" wasn't released as a single in the US until 1964 and it didn't place in the Top 40 on our side of the pond.
You can listen to the song on playlist, but I recommend not.

I can't do the birthday song. :( Wish I could. Year 1941, big bands were in, especially Glen Miller. Some of these songs stayed around for years and years.
