Thing is Dez, you know who it is. I know you'd like not to, but you do.
He came second in Pop Idol, a popular ITV talent show, to Will Young about ten years ago. Now starring in west end musicals.

Couldn't be better! 😀
Album was 'Bridge over troubled water' another classic

She could kick the crap out of Gareth Gates, and Noel Edmunds who I suspect couldn't.
Bucks Fizz - Makin' your mind up!
Mungo Jerry, In the summertime

It doesn't go back far enough for me, but apparently this:
Hoagy Carmichael - "My Resistance Is Low"
... based on sales of sheet music!!
Pink Floyd - Another brick in the wall. Which, considering my birthday is Christmas day and some of the dirge that's come out since, isn't too bad really 🙂
If wikipedia is to be believed, My birthday was the day that Relax by Frankie goes to hollywood hit number 1!!
January 16th 1978 - Mull of Kintyre
Oh bobbins 😐
Georgie Fame - The Ballad Of Bonnie And Clyde
However, at least I share my birthday with Eddie Van Halen, so some 'cred is restored 8)
Single: Englebert Humperdink - The Last Waltz
Album: The Beatles - Sgt Pepper
Share my birthday with Leonard Cohen 🙂
xcgb, I have that on vinyl . . . somewhere 😕
Mary's Boy Child for me . . . yes, it's my birthday soon 😛
Hey, I don't feel so old now - the only people younger than me on that list, born on the same day are Tracey Ullman and Jay Kay.
As Rusty Trowel:

Marvin Wandrin' Star[/url]
And Bridge Over Troubled Water in the albums chart.
for me it was The Beatles - "I Feel Fine
Renee and Renato - Save Your Love. There really have been some awful songs at Number 1 on my birthday. Topped off this year by none other than little mix, cannonball.
Rather worryingly for me (may 75)
It was Tammy Wynettee - Stand by your Man!
Again, the bloody awful Beatles with Lady Madonna. Close call - it was Celebrations by ol' Wrinkly Neck soon after.
I doubt whether anyone was actually listening to much as that nice chap Martin Luther King was whacked on the same day...
Cougar, I laughed at your post, and was then brought immediately back to earth when I realised we were born in the same week. 🙁

I was pleased - no, THRILLED! - to discover that #1 on the day my wife was born, was none other than 'Ken Lee'
😆
[i]Ken Leeeeeeeeeeeeeee, tulibu dibu douchou....[/i]
Hang on; your wife is [i]seventeen[/i]??? 😯
Mine:
As for birthdays; mine's a special rare one, innit, so not going to be many famous people born on it. The only ones I can find that are even vaguely recognisable are actor Joss Ackland, and serial killer Aileen Wuornos.
