Find out the #1 song on your birthday (US or UK)

Trivia time: When “Wake Up Little Suzie” was No. 1 on the U.S charts, what was No. 1 on the Canadian charts?

Answer: Who cares? But six months later, it was “Wake Up Little Suzie.”

:: runs away from mob of angry Cannucks ::

U.S.A.

“Long and Winding Road”, Beatles (They weren’t kidding :smiley: )
10th Birthday: “Funky Town”, Lipps, Inc. (I remember my friend and I made up a dance to this song!)
20th Birthday: “It Must Have Been Love”, Roxette (sorta remember this)
30th Birthday: “Be With You”, Enrique Iglasias (Don’t know this song. But I know this guy’s dad, Julio’s, song. Hmm.)

My birthdate isn’t on the chart.

I am very very old.

Tris

Mine: “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” - Diana Ross

Wifey’s: “Happy Together” - The Turtles

First Date: “Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman?” - Bryan Adams

Wedding Anniversary: “Livin’ La Vida Loca” - Ricky Martin

:sniff: It was fate.

I only just made the chart:

  • ‘I believe’ by Frankie Laine

I believe I am old. :eek:

“Livin’ On A Prayer”. Oh god, now it’s going to be stuck in my head for the rest of the week.

Damn you, Bon Jovi!

whoa-oh! livin’ on a prayer…

Wow!

And I mean Wow!

the number one song on my birthdate is the one and only song that has ever made me cry - ‘Bright Eyes - Art Garfunkel’

Dec. 19, 1971
US: Brand New Key - Melanie
UK: Ernie (The Fastest Milkman In The West) - Benny Hill

Hmmm… Not exactly a great day in the history of music. Although It was the world premier of A Clockwork Orange!

I arrived in the world to the sound of Too Much Heaven, by the Bee Gees. On my 18th birthday, Un-break My Heart by Toni Braxton was at the top of the U.S. charts & on my 21st, it was I Knew I Loved You by Savage Garden.

Gah.

The first site doesn’t work for me, but Popstrology gives the number one song for the week of my birth as:

Queen’s Another One Bites the Dust.

I consider myself lucky - three days later and I would have been born under a Barbra Streisand song.

Birthday–Don’t You (Forget About Me) - Simple Minds (anyone heard of it?)

19th a.k.a. legal drinking age–Burn - Usher

Figures I wouldn’t know either, though I’ve at least heard of Usher.

The theme song from the movie The Breakfast Club.

Birthday-Daydream Believer by the Monkees
18th-Broken Wing-Mr. Mr.

Bleah.

On the day I was born:

Australia – (Rockin’, Rollin’) Clementine by Col Joye and the Joy Boys
Never heard of song or group.

UK – Livin’ Doll by Cliff Richard
Don’t know the song, but have heard of the singer.

USA – The Three Bells by The Browns
Only know song and group because they were featured on a “Fifty Nifty Fifties Hits by the Original Artists” commercial that ran incessantly when I was in high school.

Eighteenth birthday:

Australia – I Go To Rio by Peter Allen
I know (what I assume to be) the Pablo Cruise version of the tune, but not Peter’s, although I do recognize his name.

UK – Float On by The Floaters
I must have heard this once or twice, and I know it inspired a parody called Bloat On.

USA – Best of My Love by The Emotions
Finally one I know fairly well, though I’m not especially delighted by that fact.

Day I was born:
US: Kiss You All Over by Exile (Never heard of it)
UK: Summer Nights by John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John (Grease isn’t too bad)

1st birthday:
US: Rise by Herb Alpert (another one I haven’t heard of)
UK: Video Killed the Radio Star by the Buggles (now we’re getting somewhere!)

18th birthday:
US: Macarena by Los Del Rio (this is supposedly my life’s theme song :eek: )
UK: Words by Boyzone (I’m assuming they’re a boy band. Actually, I think they may be the ones who had a brief appearance in U2’s video for the Sweetest Thing, but I’m not sure)

19th birthday (legal age here):
US and UK are the same: Candle in the Wind 1997 (no comment)

Look At That Girl - Guy Mitchell

Maggie May - Rod Stewart

Ugh. Guy Mitchell was OK but I loathed Rod Stewart.

Day I was born: I’ll Be There - Jackson 5
Right, there’s a story behind that, but I won’t bore y’all. And hey! Thanks a lot, MinniePurl! At least it wasn’t the Partridge Family.

1st Birthday: Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves - Cher
I think I feel a hairball coming up. GAK!

16th Birthday: Amanda - Boston
I vaguely remember this song.

18th Birthday: *Kokomo *- The Beach Boys
Life’s theme song? Don’t I wish? :frowning:

21st Birthday: *Cream *- Prince and the New Power Generation
I don’t remember this one. Is this the Artist formerly (and now, once again) known as Prince? Who’s the New Power? What happened to the Revolution? Was this the follow-up to Darling Nikky? sorry

Wedding Day: The Boy Is Mine - Brandy & Monica
Never heard it, but apropos nonetheless.

30th Birthday: With Arms Wide Open - Creed
…and boobs hung down low…

What’s worse is that 1970 was a bad year for music. The Beatles broke up. So did Simon and Garfunkel. Jimi Hendrix died. And then Janis Joplin. Bummer. :frowning:

18th:Blood on the Dance Floor-Michael Jackson. Seems pretty apt for my life.Bring on the body bags

I just checked out Popstrology. Apparently, I was born in The Third Year Of Elvis Presley. My life song is the same one that was number 1 when I was born: “It’s All In The Game” by Tommy Edwards.

I don’t wanna talk about it looks grumpy after seeing which songs were on his birthday
