    This is sort of a take off from Bubbler's thread, when The Good Doctor said something about Rick Springfield's song being #1 when he was born. Here is a web site where you can check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_number-one_hits_(United_States)

    I shall start it off...

    "Heaven" by Bryan Adams

    Men At Work's "Down Under" was blaring on radios across the nation the day I was born.

    I Will Follow Him, by Little Peggy March. Never head of the song or the artist.

    Unfortunately, music was still about a year away from the Beatles arriving to change the landscape when I was born.

    "Satisfaction" went No. 1 in the US the day I was born.

    Crimson and Clover. The original, not Joan Jett's superior remake.

    In other news of the day, the Jets had just won the Super Bowl, Nixon and Arafat became the leaders of the USA and the PLO, noted douchebag Ian Paisley served an all-too-brief prison term and the Beatles gave their last public concert, that impromptu rooftop show on the Apple building.

    Right smack dab in the middle of the Singing Nun's #1 run....Dominique-a-nique-a-nique, indeed.

    A parody of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. Not an auspicious beginning, can you say "One Hit Wonder".
