What Song Was Number 1 The Day You Were Born

The Number 1 single was:
Bryan Adams - "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You"

I did a project about the day I was born last year, this would have been very helpful. I did find out that I was born the same day and year as the baby on the cover of the Nirvana cd.

Edit: that's weird because Courtney Love was also born on July 9th, obviously years before me, but she was Cobain's wife and all. Maybe that's why they chose that exact kid, hmm.

The Pet Shop Boys - "It's A Sin"

Never heard of them... Wonder what was #1 in the US?

Pet Shop Boys sing that song about the East end boys and the West eeeeend girrrrrls.

Wait a minute! That site can't be accurate! It's saying "On your 18th birthday Lily Allen - "The Fear" is supposed to be the number one song...my 18th birthday isn't until July!

^^You never know. The Industry is all planned out in advance. Maybe they're just giving you a heads up
