    What song was #1 on the day you were born.

    Some people believe our lives are profoundly influenced by whatever pop song was #1 on the day we were born.

    My number #1's are:
    'You're So Vain' by Carly Simon in the US
    'Long Haired Lover From Liverpool' by Little Jimmy Osmond in the UK
    'Ben' by Michael Jackson in Australia

    See which songs you get

    '1976, Abba scored their third UK No.1 single with 'Fernando', the song went on to become ABBA's biggest selling single, with sales over 10 million. And also on day Abba started a nine-week run at No.1 on the UK album chart with their 'Greatest Hits' album.'

    Great

    I think it was "Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman" by Bryan Adams.

    Not bad.

    One More Try by George Michael was #1 in the USA on my birthdate and I am only vaguely aware of who that is and likely never heard the song, guess I'll go do that right now.

    EDIT: Terrible...

    Also in Australia the #1 song was Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car by Billy Ocean, at least I've heard that one.

    UK was With a Little Help From My Friends/She's Leaving Home by Wet Wet and Billy Bragg and I never heard of any of that and won't look it up...

    The only one of these I've heard is The Final Countdown, and it sounds like a rejected theme song from Space Mutiny.
