John Travolta & Olivia Newton John - You're The One That I Want

Your Wife is exactly the same age as my eldest Son then..28 !

I can't remember what was number one on my birthday because there was'nt a radio in the delivery room..probably some old crooner I supect. :o But if anyone knows how to find out its 02/08/54

But my middle Son was born when Smokey Robinson was number 1 with "Being with you"

and my youngest "Please Please Tell Me Now" by Duran Duran, so we named him after SIMON Le Bonn...Luckily we did not name our middle Son "Smokey" :D

TP, you sometimes give the impression you're older than you are. 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.... :D:D

Bloody thing only goes back to 1952!

I didn't think they had music before then, did they??? :o

:D

of course, now having said that... I didn't miss the cutoff by much:

Connie Francis - Stupid Cupid

Lyrics

Stupid cupid, you're a real mean guy

I'd like to clip your wings so you can't fly

I'm in love and it's a crying shame

And I know that you're the one to blame

Hey, hey -- set me free

Stupid cupid, stop pickin' on me!

I can't do my homework and I can't see straight

I meet him every morning 'bout a half-past eight

I'm acting like a lovesick fool

You've even got me carrying his books to school

Hey, hey -- set me free

Stupid cupid, stop pickin' on me!

.... and so on and so forth... :D

but hey, she looked good....

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 :o

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") :o

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..

How worried should I be that I know the lyrics for most of the songs named in this thread? :D

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.... :o:D

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 :D

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.

:o

ps Surely this puts me at number one , Rus ?

:D

The wife's was The Pipes & Drums & Military Band of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards - Amazing Grace :D

Stepson's was Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby..... :D

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..... :D

Sorry Meadish you've lost me and everyone else with that I reckon....! :D

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....... :D:o

Doris avoided Tex.... Ken avoided Tax...... how tickled he was :o

January - Pilot

"January, sick and tired, you've been hanging on me

You make me sad with your eyes

You're telling me lies

Don't go, don't go

January, don't be cold, don't be angry to me

You make me sad come and see

Oh January

Don't go, don't go"

They were also responsible for 'Ho ho ho. it's magic'

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...
