Ever wonder what was playing on the radio whilst your mother was going thru labor - with you, you "rotten little ingrate" ? (least that's what I hear, followed by a blow-by-blow description of all the plumbing damage I caused)

GO HERE to find out what Billboard officially lists as the number 1 song when you came into the world. Note that anyone that says
Genie in a Bottle by Christina Aguilera will get their butt kicked out on general principle: you should be playing your X-Box.

Me, I always thought it was Heartbreak Hotel by Elvis. Turns out it was Singing The Blues by Guy Mitchell.

David, there are some who won't be able to answer that!

STEELINOX · 17 March 2010, 12:54 PM

And during labor, "Blue Moon" by the Marcels...

True, if you're over 70 there are some other charts that tracked record sales, but radio play and jukebox play were a little harder to collate prior to 1940.

Excellent tune. The guy who sand lead on it just died here about three weeks ago. His brother is a big shot TV-face attorney named Geoff Feiger, I think.

Interesting side note: Macca did two tunes with MJ, Say, Say, Say and The Girl Is Mine. At the time, he was trying to re-juvenate his career post-Wings, and MJ was at his peak. Then MJ pissed him off by buying the rights to most of the Beatles songs, of which his estate still holds a sizable portion. Macca was Not Happy. No more collaborations after that.

I wasn't too thrilled (pardon the pun) myself!

Yeah, Macca was seriously looking to get his name current again, so Stevie Wonder was a logical choice. I was expecting Diana Ross next, but it never materialized.
