  • mine both suck
    UK:
    Silver Lady - David Soul

    US:
    You Light Up My Life - Debby Boone

    they say that the song on your 18th birthday is your life's theme song so according to that my theme song is:

    Uk:Fairground - Simply Red


    US:Fantasy - Mariah Carey

    Oh great, wonderfull. Maybe I'll have a surrogate song



  • with out a foking d0ut!
    i have the worst of the worst...

    US: Terry Jacks - Seasons in the Sun





    UK: Teresa Brewer - Longing for you




  • Pop: "All You Need Is Love"-Beatles
    Soul: "Respect"-Aretha Franklin

    Aretha wins this battle - I like the Beatles, but that wasn't one of their better songs.

    No, dude - for two reasons:
    1) The Poppy Family allegiance
    2) Look at the flip.
    2b) ...which is probably a slow funk jam at 33 1/3.

    If it has to be Paper Lace at least it's not "The Night Chicago Died", I guess.

    YES!

    Nice one! Didn't know that song actually made it to No. 1.

    A more interesting thread, which may take a little more, err, reporting, is what song you were conceived to. I don't think I want to go down that road.
