On the Day that YOU Were Born

I came across this kinda cool web site the other day. You click on the month of your birth, then day and then the year of your birth, and it will tell you the #1 song the day you were born.

Now, I can't remember that far back, but I was surprised to find out that I did know the song. On September 19, 1957, the #1 song was: "That'll Be the Day", by The Crickets (Who the heck are "The Crickets" anyway?)

What was the #1 song on the day of YOUR birth?

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Congratulations to my fine brother Gary, he was the winner of my blog contest. He correctly identified the mystery picture I posted as a 'Quilting Bee'! Here is Gary, happy to be receiving his grand prize, a package of flat flower head quilting pins.

Ah, this is cracking me up to have all you young'uns posting your songs, because I remember them ALL---and it doesn't seem that long ago since they were popular songs....(except you Gary, I've never heard that Pat Boone song either ;-)

"Flashdance...What a Feeling" by Irene Cara. Never heard of her.

Bonnie said...

Irene Cara? You need to find "FAME" and watch it. She was a hottie!! Boy I am getting old....

"On My Own" by Patti LaBelle and Michael McDonald. I've never heard of it. How 'bout you Bonnie?

Bonnie said...

Katie dear - of course this song is familiar to me! I watched the music video on Youtube - Patti LaBelle sure looks young.

I actually know mine! "If You Leave Me Now" by Chicago. And I love the picture of Gary. I wonder what he'll use those fine flower-head pins for? Hmmm.

What have you created today?
