[Music] Your favourite song from the year you were born

[Icy Gull]

Most of you will have a multitude of choices.

Me?I’m calling the fifth amendment - 1951 - shite shite and yet more shite. I can’t find a single song I like

Must be something from 1960?

 

[Me and my Monkey]

Radiohead, No Surprises.

Ha, only joking. I'm not saying.

You have a pretty wide choice, can I suggest Cathy’s Clown by the Everlys or Itsy Witsy Teenie weenie yellow bikini

The day I was born The Big O was no.1 with Pretty Woman. I'm happy to accept that.

1951 indeed seems a little bit shite. The only 50s music I really listen to is when I occasionally have a Perez Prado night, when I'm in the mood for mambo.

For my year, 1989... not the best year really as I'm not really into 80s stuff all that much. It was either before or after most of the stuff I like. Michael Jacksons "Smooth Criminal" is alright I guess.

Unfortunately there were only 6 weeks of charts in 1952 as NME stared them 20 Nov. Ballad of High Noon is the only one I’ve heard since.

Nothing wrong with 1951:

1968 - I can narrow it down to about 150;tunes. As a Mod I musically inhabit the late 60s.

Being in the middle of World War 2 and also in the USA a musicians strike against the record companies 1942 was a thin year for recorded music. However this has always appealed to me:
