In the UK when I was born: Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep by Middle of the Road was #1. A very sad day in british music history. i've never heard this song before, perhaps it's a dandy, and also a remake from the fifth century.

In the U.S., it was 'it's too late' by carole king.

I'm not very pleased with the number ones on my birthdate.

Phew, I was afraid this was an other happy birthday thread.

UK:
One Day In Your Life by
Michael Jackson

USA:
Bette Davis Eyes by
Kim Carnes

On a side note, my mother works at the newspaper and she looked up what was on the cover on my birthday. It was a picture of a cow sitting on his bottom with the title: "Cow is tired".

Also funny to know.

The U.K. number 1 was 'Back Home' by England World Cup Squad.

The U.S. number 1 was 'Everything Is Beautiful' by Ray Stevens.

Can't say that I've ever heard them...

No worries,

I once saw a stripper in Baker Montana dance to "Teddy Bear" by Elvis, and I've never been able to listen to that song since...

Weasel · Post by **Weasel** » Thu Apr 18, 2002 2:51 pm

The U.S. No.1 on the 27th March 1971 was... Me and Bobby McGee by Janis Joplin.

The U.K. No.1 on the 27th March 1971 was... Hot Love by T. Rex

The UK pop charts began in 1952 & the US in 1955 so I believe since Fable is older than time it's self his will not be listed.
