Back Home, by the England World Cup Squad for me as well, always tell people it was norman greenbaum's spirit in the sky, far better.

Benny Hill: Ernie, the fastest milkman... hardly Hendrix is it?

EDIT: Wow, Kendal, born in the same week as me

You can add me to that exclusive club as well. Not necessarily the same week though, it was #1 for about a month.

Could've been worse, a day later and it'd have been a Coke advert.

"Don't you want me (baby)" by the Human League was number 1 on the day I was born.

Pretty ironic since I was an orphan.

Not the worst.

Looks like it was a fine vintage for Number #1s that year:
YMCA, Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick, Bright Eyes, Message In A Bottle, Another Brick In The Wall, to name a few.

Christmas Day 1979, Another brick in the wall by Pink Floyd. I got pretty lucky really!

I was born two days later so have the same song, I was surprised it wasn't some shitty Christmas song!
