What was #1 on the day you were born

[Spiritinthesky]

Have you ever done this?

My number #1's are:
'You're So Vain' by Carly Simon in the US
'Long Haired Lover From Liverpool' by Little Jimmy Osmond in the UK
'Ben' by Michael Jackson in Australia

It's Especially For You - Kylie Minogue & Jason Donovan, for me although I was always under the impression it was Cliff Richard Mistltoe and Wine.

Useless link! It doesn't go back far enough!

Doesn't seem to include 1972 (my birthday specifically) either.

I used Wikipedia.

Oh.

Well in that case it was the New Seekers singing this song (both in the charts around the same time but the New Seekers had the number 1).



Cool.
