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!

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?

Shenanigans.

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.

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.
