Right. On the chart *announced* on my birthday, Barbra f*cking Streisand is No 1 - but that hadn't been announced by the time I was born, so I'm declaring the Police - "Don't Stand So Close To Me".

Much better.

Mine:

Artist: Tremeloes
Song title: Silence Is Golden
Date: 18/05/1967

Well obviously I don't remember this one.

Since being born just then, that would be it.

If this would be about the No.1 from when you wuz 18 then it would make much more sense to me.

Don't You (Forget About Me) by the Simple Minds (from the movie The Breakfast Club) was the No.1 in the Billboard Top 100 on the 18th of May, 1985.

Now that makes more sense to me.

Yeah, fucking top idea... NOT.

Artist: Jason Donovan
Song title: Too Many Broken Hearts

And Kylie the year before.

You can shove that right up your arse

When I was 10, I had "Jealous Guy" (Roxy Music); "99 Luftballoons" (Nena) when I was 13; Dead Or Alive's "You Spin Me Round" at 14...

And that's it for the 80's. So much good music from that decade; so little represented on my birthday

18th birthday - Killer, by Adamski (and Seal). Since both Jim Henson and Sammy Davis Jr died on my 18th birthday that's slightly apt. (Andy Kaufman died on my 12th birthday, too.)

Oh blimey, Tori Spelling is exactly a year younger than me, and David Boreanaz is a year older. That's not cool at all.
