The Song of Your Life
 

According to some people who don't know shit, "the song of your life" is the tune which was #1 on the US charts on your 14th birthday.
Check it out.

Heh, Everly Brothers, Bird Dog. Hmm, maybe they do know shit. ;)

And you get in your car and you drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and lands on the ground
And out comes a man from Mars
And you try to run but he's got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you're in the man from Mars
You go out at night, eatin' cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercuries and Subarus
And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars

That's a cool one to have! Some consider Rapture to be the first number one rap song, the one that brought rap into serious consideration. And it's Blondie.

I got You Needed Me by Anne Murray. My dad always loved Anne's voice. It's not the anthem I would choose. Hot Child in the City was right next to it, and I remember that well because I liked the song so much my brother gave me the Nick Gilder album then.

Neat site!

But I was in Britain on that day

looks up British #1 singles

ABBA: "The Name of the Game"

I'll take it.

Ok, this is weird

12 - BeeGees - how can you mend a broken heart
16 - BeeGees - Jive Talking
18 - Andy Gibb - I want to be your everything


21 - Olivia Newton John - Magic

What are the odds of 3 Gibbs and 4 Aussies?

Ghost busters. Ch'yeah.

Madonna - Live to Tell.

Oh Hell yes!~ "The Streak"

Joy to the World, Three Dog Night.

That's a good one.

The Night Chicago Died
You're (fucking kidding me) Having My Baby
I Shot the Sheriff

Ok can I just say ummm what?

Shenanigans.:mad:

Age 0 - 'Mrs. Robinson' Simon & Garfunkel
Age 12 - 'Funkytown' Lipps, Inc
Age 14 - 'Ebony & Ivory' Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney
Age 16 - 'Time After Time' Cyndi Lauper
Age 18 - 'On My Own' Patti LaBelle & Michael McDonald
Age 21 - 'Wind Benath My Wings' Bette Midler

None of that is the theme of my life.

Either that song had staying power, or you and Popdigr are about the same age.

:stickpoke

Could be, 1944.
When you dial in a date, it goes back to 1938, but the list of #1 hits only goes back to August of 1958.

Well, you're two years younger, so, I'll stop poking the old guy with a stick now...:D

Now I know why I hate on pop music. Andy Gibb: Shadow Dancing... just terrible.

Get the hell off my lawn.:p:

Age 13: I Can See Clearly Now
Age 14: Keep on Truckin'
Age 15: You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet
Age 16: Island Girl
Age 17: Tonight's the Night

Make of this what you will.

The Eddie Kendricks song?

Waitaminute...

Age 10: Keep on Truckin
Age 11: You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet
Age 12: Island Girl
Age 13: Tonight's the Night

Does this mean we share a birthday? :eek:

And I'm the (slightly) older woman ... so much I could've taught you ...

Ah actually we share the same birth week. Makes sense... the singles count for a week

Age 14: yet another favorite death scene.
 

Some are a couple weeks to a month.
