Have you ever done this?
Some people believe our lives are profoundly influenced by whatever pop song was #1 on the day we were born.
On the day Heather Mills (the ex Mrs McCartney) was born (12th Jan 1968) it was Hello Goodbye by The Beatles!
My number #1's are:
'You're So Vain' by Carly Simon in the US
'Long Haired Lover From Liverpool' by Little Jimmy Osmond in the UK
'Ben' by Michael Jackson in Australia
See which songs you get

Madge - Like a Prayer
But then wiki says it was "She Drives Me Crazy" - Fine Young Cannibals
I have just Googled and YouTubed this and it turns out that it was the song "When" by a duo named The Kalin Twins. Can't see any especial link to me in terms of the song but apparently The Kalin Twins were born on 16 February which would make their Suns in conjunction with my Moon. As far as the song is concerned it sounds like a low-octane version of Dion and The Belmonts.
In terms of when and where I was born though what pisses me off is that about three days after I was born there was a race riot (in London) just a few miles away.
