In the very first message on page 1, there's a link that will tell you the song, it goes back to 52. It wouldn't work for poor old croc.... redrus

October 26, 200619 yr What I think is more interesting is what the #1 song was at the moment of conception. Mine was "Working for the Man" by Roy Orbison. A song I have always liked. Its easy to work that out as it was the Number 1 in Australia for 3 weeks

October 26, 200619 yr This is very embarrasing.. mine was, "Frankie Laine - I Believe" (a quick check reveals he was also responsible for the smash hit version of the theme song from " High Noon") Worth pointing out that "How much is that doggie in the window" was also a number one that year so it could have been worse..

October 26, 200619 yr How worried should I be that I know the lyrics for most of the songs named in this thread?
October 26, 200619 yr Author How worried should I be that I know the lyrics for most of the songs named in this thread? Na, look on it as a good thing, as long as none of tunes you know are the ones from Jumbo, Tingnongnoi or Fosa, you should be ok.... redrus
October 26, 200619 yr ....Need we ask how you know that............ redrus That invites all sorts of comments like "I was there" etc. But a calculation using my date of birth gives a reasonable range of conception. Well actually Date of last cycle. From then you can add 10 days to get the conception date, within a few days. As the song was #1 for 3 weeks, and my date came just about in the middle, then I am ok with the idea. I suppose I could have called my dad and asked him, but that would not be polite
October 26, 200619 yr As a hardcore Zeppelin/Hendrix fan I'm proud to announce that the song at number one, when I entered this mortal coil was..... Ken Dodd - Tears. ps Surely this puts me at number one , Rus ? The wife's was The Pipes & Drums & Military Band of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards - Amazing Grace Stepson's was Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby..... But the winner in our family must be young Tom's - "Baddiel, Skinner & Lightning Seeds" - Three Lions '98 - Well he was a world cup babber.....
October 26, 200619 yr As a hardcore Zeppelin/Hendrix fan I'm proud to announce that the song at number one, when I entered this mortal coil was.....Ken Dodd - Tears. That just has to be the winner
October 26, 200619 yr P.S. TP .... I was a year out on the wife's day of birth (Buddhist calendars!) Hers was. Donna Summer - I Feel Love Oooooh it's so good, it's so good it's sooooo good.
October 26, 200619 yr Author Sorry Meadish you've lost me and everyone else with that I reckon....! Ach, bejasus, I didn't think it could happen. This is the question thats been bugging people of a funny persuasion for years. Who's worse, Ken Dodd or, bloody Doris Day....? I'm not sure I can make this decision without time to think, my head hurts....... redrus

October 26, 200619 yr Bloody thing only goes back to 1952! so I noted as well...not to worry, it's OK if the popular music pre-1952 was chanted by monks in hoods in dungeons during the time of Pope Gregory...gives us old folks a more spiritual aspect...
