I remember the #1 song the day I was born, but get this: My wife is a filapina and she was able to sing along with her #1 B day song, never missing a word, hitting every change perfect. If only it wasn't off key.......

This is almost on topic.
For my wife's birthday this year, I put together a set of all the number 1 hits on her birthdays. I won't say how old she is, but it was a three CD set. Was really pretty interesting--Probably more fun for me to research and put together than for her to listen to the songs.
Things I learned:
1. Almost all the songs in the last 20 years are just plain weird (and lots of rap). (Of course, I guess grandma and grandpa felt that way about Pink Floyd and Supertramp.)
2. The published Billboard No. 1 for a given date is actually the song that was most popular a week or two prior (the obvious lag for the data collection).
3. There were half a dozen or so repeat performers. Only the Beatles appeared three times: '64 She Loves You, '65 Eight Days a Week, and '67 Penny Lane.
4. Most repeat performers were back to back or at least within a few years of each other. Cher was the exception with No. 1's in 1974: Dark Lady and 25 years later (1999) with Believe.

For my wife's birthday this year, I put together a set of all the number 1 hits on her birthdays.
This inspired me to make a list of the number 1 hits on my birthday over the years. I recognized very few of them after I got out of high school. And a couple I *did* recognize I remembered from television commercials. |
