In 1964, when I was born, Top Hit was a Beatles song "I Want to Hold Your Hand " !
My parents were delighted with the song, obviously



Do you know for the hit song of the year you were born ?

Kinda fun! Found the nr.1 song for the exact date I was born (Billboard). Here's mine:

The hit of 1995. The most intresting thing is that the song was released the day before I born.

1982 hit!

On March 2, 1963 The Four Seasons had their third chart-topper: “http://jerseyboysblog.com/today-in-four-seasons-history-march-2-1963/5164”! My parents had the album..I remember it well. It rocks so hard.

After watching mine a few times now I can see why I have no natural musical talent what so ever. I think we can all see it really.

Hm...I checked the top lists for 1981...not many sogs in it I'd like to share but this one is a song I really like:



And of course, one of the famous four chord songs :

Could be worse Kahall - April 1963, the month and year when I was born, Cliff Richard's 'Summer Holiday' was No.1 in the UK. (I was actually born in the Middle East but whatever.) On my 40th a friend gave me a CD copy of the single. I forgave him though because he also gave me a Stereolab CD box set.

You guys got nothin' to complain about

This was No1 the day I was born.

Well I'm proud of my year - 1984

Van Halen - Jump (No 1)

U2 - Pride (In the name of love)

Bon Jovi - Runaway

hehehehe

Hey, I didn't realise we could choose something from the entire year....

in that case......

The entire Live After Death Album - 1985. 'Nuff said

Posted by: K1R Aug 5 2011, 10:52 AM

Then I can choose Iron Maiden - The X Factor - 1995 or Motorhead - Sacrifice albums

Posted by: tonymiro Aug 5 2011, 11:32 AM

Perhaps understandably Cosmin is ignoring the number 1s like Lionel Ritchie's Hello, Macca's Pipes of Peace, Wham's Wake me up before you go go, and Jim Diamond's I should have known better...

Posted by: Ben Higgins Aug 5 2011, 11:33 AM

Hehehe, good call

Posted by: Chris Evans Aug 5 2011, 12:22 PM

heheh

Mungo Jerry - In the summertime





Number one for 30th June 1970

Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Aug 5 2011, 01:32 PM

I knew about Van Halen's song a long time from now but I searched for two more - three's the magic number but I had no clue about the ones above and I don't see anything wrong with Lionel Ritchie (waiting for Ben's reply )

Posted by: Ben Higgins Aug 5 2011, 01:34 PM

I agree.. there's nothing wrong with Mr Ritchie

Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Aug 5 2011, 01:41 PM

Pheeewww

Posted by: tonymiro Aug 5 2011, 01:48 PM

Lionel Ritchie is ok (and I still like the Commodores),. Arguably Hello is ok as a song but the video is another matter

Posted by: kahall Aug 6 2011, 04:43 AM

I'm not familiar with that song. I will look for it.

I picked mine from the exact day I was born but I bet I couldn't do much better using the whole year.

1993!! \m/
