[Music] What was Number One in the pop charts the day you were born?

[Yorkie]

UK - Eye Level by Simon Park Orchestra

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

Anyone born prior to 1953 will not get anything as this is the year chart music first began!

The sun aint gonna shine anymore by the Walker Brother,


and The Ballad of the Green Berets by Sgt Barry Sadler in the USA, and to think we have had some crap Number ones!
