1952 - You Belong To Me - Jo Stafford

Top Pop song... sounds 40s to me but then again it's EARLY! 50s

One of my fav. song from the 50's. I was a few months old.

(Bruce didn't get his record deal with Columbia till 1972 - but a week after i was born he did meet Clarence Clemons - his legendary Big Man saxophonist for the first time and as they say sparks flew on E Street)

According to wiki - Billboard top 100...

You have got to be kidding!

My reaction in a nutshell.
Walk like an egyptian? Really?

On the day I was born, June 1974, the number 1 song in the UK was John Denver with Annie's Song.

My mother wanted to call me Alexis, but my dad decided that day on Annie, because he said the words of the song resonated with him about how much joy he felt when looking at me. Cute, right??

But mum said no

So they eventually agreed on Alexandra, but dad always, and I mean ALWAYS, called me Alex-Annie

I love that song!... I was 15 (46 yrs ago ) it seems like yesterday. Summer of 74 were the fun days!

 

[Dandi]

In Australia it was Olivia Newton-John and her aerobics anthem

In the US it was I Love Rock 'n' Roll, by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. I mildly prefer that one

I love this song. I have seen Neil in concert so many times.

Wish I had seen him in the 70's. He was in town like 1.5 yr ago but his ticket price was so I didn't go.
