Yep.

His other hit was the song "In The Summertime", which was covered locally by "The Mixtures" (who was infamous for "The Pushbike Song")

Anyhoo, the number one hit song on my birthday was...

Me too, 4/23/68! That's right, April 23rd. Me, Shakespeare, and Valerie Bertinelli:) That was cool, but I'm off to see if there's a Canadian chart equivlalent.

But I'm happy to go with my Wedding Day:

So why the discrepancy? I always thought that the No.1 was determined by what was top the previous Sunday (which is how we decide Christmas No.1's). This site implies results by what singles were buying in a particular week.

ie. top 40 announced Sunday 1st, sprog dropped Monday 2nd. No.1 should be what is actually top based on the previous day's declaration, rather than what will be top on (week ending) Sunday 8th.
How would you remember it? You were only hours/days old. :wink:
