I am very proud to say that the cheese-fest that is YMCA by the Village People was at number 1 when I was born!!!!!!

Must explain my love of all cheesy records.....

[shellbell]

Bright Eyes - Art Garfunkel.... don't think i know this one.

[CharleyUK]

Checked out my life theme tune (number one on your 18th birthday) and it's "dizzy"by Vic Reaves and the wonderstuff
Looked at DH life theme - "Take your daughter to the slaughter" by Iron Maiden

What a couple

I feel old

Wideyes -The Land of Make believe was one of my favourite songs. Bucks Fizz were probably one of the earliest 'made-up' groups who were formed for the 1981 Eurovision which they won partly for removing long skirts on the girls to reveal mini's underneath !

Shellbell- Bright eyes is the really really sad theme tune to Watership down another favourite of my youth !

Far too many years ago to care!!!!!!!!!!

 

[JohnnySharp2]

Mine is : A Fool Such As I / I Need Your Love Tonight - Elvis Presley

This is spooky though, my son's is : What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted / Saturday Night At The Movies / You'll Never Walk Alone - Robson & Jerome

being a Liverpool fan should have known that

Julie (my wife) : I'm Alive - The Hollies

 

[Goofyish]

It was 'Sweets for my Sweet' by The Searchers on my birthday

 

[Goofyish]

Oh heck!

My was the Jazz Singer by Al Jolson.

Kev

Al Jolson must have been a child star when he released that then

Snap!!!

Mine is Surrender by Elvis. I remember a similar thread some time ago when I remarked that I am a great Elvis fan and perhaps the reason is because he was number one when I was born. Well, when I was sleeping that night, the Tag Fairy came visiting and that explains how I got my tag!

 

[Tiggernut_jadie]

I think I win the prize so far for the most appropriate songs both sides of the Atlantic similtaneously......

UK - Help by the Beatles

US - I got you babe by Sonny and Cher

Although DH's in the UK is pretty good tto - Please REleaseme by Engelbert Humperdinck. His US one was Ruby Tuesday by the Rolling Stones!

DD's were...

Lady by Modjo in the UK and Music by Madonna in the US (at least I've heard of that - can't stand the woman though! )

This thread has made me feel VERY old - songs like Land of Make Believe, Are Friends Electric, Bright eyes, When I need you, Mull of Kintyre etc are from my youth - I can't believe there are people old enough to go to WDW without 'adult' supervision who were born when these songs came out..........................WAAAAAHHHHH I feel SOOOO OLD!!!!!!!
