I didn't think I had, but youtubed it and recognised it immediately. And all I can say is, fuck you Lionel! This one is more than I could ever hope for.

that site is bollocks . It says Uptown Top Ranking was number one for whenI was born but I know that it was number one at least 2 months after I was born .

 

[Termite Man]

although I prefer the one I get from there . The actual number one for my birthday is Wings - "Mull of Kintyre / Girls' School"

That link in the OP is shit, it's getting them all wrong. This is better:

Mine is Make it Easy on Yourself by the Walker Brothers - which is a good tune, but a week earlier it was Satisfaction.

 

[cesare]

Much better link!

UK charts, Reach For The Stars/Climb Every Mountain - Shirley Bassey

 

[gentlegreen]

In Australia it was "Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport" by Rolf Harris.

Terry Jacks - Seasons In The Sun

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Terry Jacks should be vilified for his crime against Jacques Brel

 

[F_Burnside]

Well now its apparently 'Relax' by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, but I'd always thought it was 'Pipes of Peace' by Macca. Both crap anyway.

 

[pigtails]

The OP site said - Wurzels Combine Harvester (Brand New Key)
But Maggot's site said - Abba - Fernando!!

I think both are

Michelle by The Overlanders in the UK. We can work it out by The Beatles in the US chart.

Been done so often I don't even need to look it up now.

It was 'You're the one that I want' from Grease.
