    As someone who teaches web design, I find this site both hilarious and useful at teaching my technical writers what NOT to do!

    This site tells you what song was #1 on the day you were born:

    Mine was "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas. (Why couldn't it have been "Best of My Love"? )

    In the British charts which are the ones we tend to use here it was
    Cinderella Rockefella by Esther & Abi Ofarim

    In the US it was
    Love Is Blue - Paul Mauriat

    Thank for that site Soda!

    Mine was Cold, Cold Heart by Tony Bennett.

    I also checked out all of the guys and here's what came up:

    Don - Peg of My Heart - The Harmonicats

    Timothy - Near You - Frances Craig

    Joe - Near You - Frances Craig

    Glenn - Buttons and Bows - Dinah Shore

    Well, I never heard of Near You or Frances Craig but that must have been a pretty big hit in 1947.
