UK: Down Under by Men At Work
US: Africa by Toto.
Good GOD that’s depressing. I can’t believe musical taste hasn’t gotten any better since I was born.
I guess it can’t get much WORSE, but I’m not going to underestimate the stupidity of the general public.

hey, i like down under and africa. but i guess that comes with the territory of growing up in the 80s. anyway, here are mine:
US: Love Train by The O’ Jays
…which is a pretty good song.
UK: Cum On Feel The Noize by Slade
…which i’ve never been a fan of, although i know quiet riot’s version more.
oh well. not too exciting for me :)

With a little math you can also find out what was a hit 9 months before you were born.

Women swoon. Where women swoon and men plunder. Number one the day I was born, too.

US:You Light Up My Life, by Debby Boone
UK:The Name Of The Game, by Abba
Good God that’s horrible!!! As for conception…
US: Blinded by the Light, by Manfred Mann’s Earth Band
UK: When I Need You, by Leo Sayer
For some reason the idea of being conceived to “Blinded by the Light” makes me laugh inside.
