I am too old. The Pop charts didn't start until the 50's

Mary Hopkin "Those Were The Days"...aaaaarrrrrrrrggggggggghhhh! What a bummer, the week before it was The Beatles "Hey Jude". My timing's always been suspect.

I know this one without having to look. "Imagine" by John Lennon. If I'd been born two days later, it would have been "Shaddap You Face" by Joe Dolce.

'Oh I can't forget this evening. Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes.
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows.
Yes it shows.

I can't live, if living is without you.
I can't live, I can't give any more.

etc. It was originally a Badfinger song and has since been covered by Mariah Carey I think.

My number 1 was Joe Dolce Music theater, 'What's a matter you'
