    Yo Einstein,

    We have the same song, "Alone Again." You born in August of 1972? I always thought you were younger than me.

    uk i only have eyes for you art garfunkel (never even heard this song before)

    US- Rolling Stones-Brown Sugar
    UK-Dawn-Knock three times

    I think it's funny that Dawn (US) were #1 in UK and RS (UK) were #1 in US that week.
    Also if my mom had waited a few days it would have been Middle of the Road-Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep which has a drum break Lol

    Hey,

    The Billboard No. 1 song on my born day was "I Can't Get Next to You" by The Temptations.

    Peace,
