Don't think I have seen this on the board before but I thought it was neat.
What song was #1 when you were born? For those born before 1952, what song was #1 when you were 18?

The British charts were no better......Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) - Edison Lighthouse.......
What the hell rip in the space-time continuum was I born into?

Aaah...I had the band and the song title swapped in my head then, not that it makes me like it any better!!!!
Still never heard the second one from the Brit charts, and it doesn't sound like any great loss. Now where's that barfy emoticon when I need it?
