Cool, it's a one of my favorite Beatles songs...
In the US and UK on my birthday: Get Back by The Beatles
Now all day I will have "JoJo left his home in Tuscon, Arizona/For some California grass" running in my head.
Oddly enough, I was named after the Four Season's song "Sherry", a number one several years before my birth.
Thanks for the site, it was fun.

UK - "Young Love" by Donny Osmond
US - "Delta Dawn" by Helen Reddy (slightly better!) :lol:
I have just been looking at mine. Apparently it was not long after John lennon had been killed so Imagine ahd just gone back to number 1 and then woman followed it. If he hadn't been killed and all other factors were the same it would have been Ultravox - Oh Vienna!!!
Dottie, either try and find the old sheet music sales data charts which were used before the charts started
or (and this is the better option)
Chop a few years off the age and pretend!!!
Um well after some research - it could have been possibly Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer - Gene Autrey :!: :oops:
Well the old girl is looking good if I say so myself :lol: Chris

UK: "Happy Talk" by Captain Sensible (never heard of that...)
US: "Don't you want me" by the Human League (never heard of this one either! 8O ) Ah well.
UK: The last waltz - Engelbert Humperdinck 8O
US:The letter - The box tops 8O
UK: The Final Countdown by Europe
US: The Next Time I Fall by Peter Cetera and Amy Grant
Never heard of either of these. But "The Final Countdown" sounds ominous...no wonder I turned out the way I did.
I now have a mission to find these songs...but I am going to eat this mini roll first...oh sod it, i'll live without hearing them.
OK, I am only 22 but am starting to feel old!!!
Don't you wnat me, Happy Talk, The Final Countdown, Physical etc were all the songs they used to play at our school discos!!!!!
Just remembered, for those who do not know the Human League song, have you seen the really annoying advert at the petrol station where the chap is talking to his lass and says "You were workingas a waitress..." and then she drives off leaving him there saying "Don't you want me baby"??? Well that is the song!!!

I have absolurely no idea what was number one on my birthday but I bet it was something by Vera lynn - probably We'll meet again. Or maybe something a bit more 'modern' by Frank Sinatra. Whatever it was it would be on a 78rpm record, and not even vynil. I should imagine that someone at sometime made a plant pot out of it.
Good grief this thread takes me back
Pass the Duchie-Musical Youth was no.1 on my birthdate....hmmm I don't even know the song!!!:oops:
Hey Jude..............Beatles. Great wee site:D

US Chart though...Lionel Richie with Say You Say Me!! Loving it!
