"Let's Stay Together", by Al Green

For kicks, I tried their alternate suggestion: the theme song of your life (#1 on your 18th birthday). Mine was "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You", by Michael Bolton. I've always preferred the Laura Brannigan version myself.

Mine was My Love - Paul McCartney & Wings

Hi all,

Oh boy! Somehow this almost seems appropriate. #1 on the U.S. charts on the day I was born: Running Scared by Roy Orbison. Top of the pops on my 18th birthday: Love You Inside Out by the Bee Gees. I guess I can go with that as my life's theme.

Thanks for the link, Lorna. 8)

Love,
CJ

Some of these entries make me feel...what's the word I'm searching for, here...old? Yeah, that's it!

The charts don't go back far enough for me, so I looked up my 18th birthday--"I Heard it Through the Grapevine," by Marvin Gaye. A song about secrets? Nah, I never had any secrets growing up...wore my minis to school, and my mom bought me lacy bras, and--oh, wait, I thought this was the fictionmania folder. Sorry.

Michelle by the Overlanders...I have only heard of the Beatles version up to now.

On my 18th...Relax by Frankie Goes To Hollywood...a classic 80's anthem!

(These were the UK charts)

Love,
