Cleo Catra 178382 Report post Posted May 11, 2011 At my birthday party this year I only would play music from the year I was born, but I also played the number one song for each person at the party - the song that was number one in North America the week they were born. Mine: Joan Jett and the Blackhearts 'I Love Rock and Roll' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SOJxNOP37I I was so born to rock! Hahaha! (resource used http://www.bobborst.com/popculture/number-one-songs-by-year/?y=1982 just change the year at the top to find yours!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted May 11, 2011 Well this came out in 1961 (year I was born) and I think, in April, the month I was born. Sort of, considering my handle, and that I travel to see ladies seems appropriate But one or two I can relate to http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x257nk_brad-paisley-im-gonna-miss-her_fun and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVL2NGpkUGE And ladies, no need to have corrected SP age, we love the real you.

slurp 7020 Report post Posted May 13, 2011 Highway Star - Deep Purple http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dg3o-fL4GC0 Closely followed by Strange Kind of Woman also by Deep Purple, funny how I began hobbying YEARS after first hearing it. This song was my original fave as it was released a few years before Highway Star. In case you don't know the song, it is about an escort named Nancy. Guess it's hard to tell I was/am a HUGE Deep Purple fan? Check out Child in Time if you like the clips above .... ahh, the good old days of 10 minute songs that went well with a joint :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
