Hopefully a bit of light relief on a sometimes heavy Community board.
What was topping the charts on the day that you were born? Obviously in the main I'm talking about the No.1 hit in the country of everyone's personal nationality but other worldwide charts can count too.
I wish I could say that mine was something 'rock and roll' but sadly I can't. With apologies to any fans of the song, I was born on the 2nd of October 1974 and topping the UK charts at the time was no less than 'Kung-Fu Fighting' by Carl Douglas. Looking across the pond at Billboard and it doesn't get much 'cooler' I'm afraid. In fact, I've never even heard the song 'Rock Me Gently' by Andy Kim. Perhaps I'll check it out later to rectify that.
What was number one when everyone else first came into this world??
