    Elvis Presley - Way Down was number one apparently. Never heard of the song.

    I'm devestated that I missed Baccara and "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie" by two weeks. Two weeks more and it would have explained everything :D

    Love me for a reason by the Osmonds *gag*
    And when I was being conceived I can only guess that my parents were rocking the two backed beast to that ol quirky up-beat Christmas funster of a song - Merry Christmas Everybody by Slade. I apologise wholeheartedly.

    Gee that song has a lot to answer for.

    That must have been in the USA, he was huge with the laydeeeeze back then, think of a cheap-rate Barry White (if you've heard of him!).

    1986!?
    Damn... I must've read that completely wrong.

    That SHOULD read:
    31:07:82. Irene Cara. Fame.

    Right to the exact day.

    'fraid so. Accordning to this site, mine is "Angel Fingers" by Wizzard, but according to a book of charts I used to have it was "Young Love" by Donny Osmond.

    I know for a fact that Gary Glitter was playing in Dublin the night i was born. He would have fancied me something rotten then.
