Just saw this on Big Footy and I remembered doing this ages ago. Thought it might be a laugh to do here.
Simply enter your DOB and pick a country to get the #1 song on the day you were born.

:lol: After having another look at this thread this morning I realised that a music nerd like myself could work out (within 3-4 months) how old fellow posters are. It was unintentional by the way. Never the less I believe you have a "big" birthday coming up later this year! :wink:

Not only do I remember all these but I remember seeing the Poseidon Adventure when it first came out at Regent #1! :oops:
Gary Glitter was very popular back then with pre-pubescents and teenyboppers which proved in time to be rather ironic! :-$
