ThaiPauly Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) 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. 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" Edited October 26, 2006 by ThaiPauly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khutan Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muckypups Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 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..

Khutan Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 ....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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chonabot Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 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.....

tutsiwarrior Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) 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...
