Default Your Song.......

Saw this on another site and I thought it would be funny here.

Challenge:
1) Find the #1 song on the billboard the week you were born. (Billboard.com is the easiest. HERE is a link. Click on "archive". )
2) Find the video of your song on YouTube
3) Post up your video without shame.

(I guess we have a lot of international guys, so do what you like... )

Mine will likely be the worst of all, so I will go first. haha!

Yeah.. Barbara is spelled wrong, but it's got lyrics so you can all sing along (not that you don't all know the lyrics by heart).

That's weird, Regen. Maybe try the week before and after?

Edit... and I forgot. If you were born prior to '55, you won't be in the billboard archive. You're too old.
But there are other means of finding the top songs before '55. I'd just google it or something.

Hey Hawkwind, that makes you almost exactly one year older than me. And I ain't no spring chicken.
