"Many feel that the song that was the number 1 hit on the day you were born shapes the rest of your life. And that the song that was number one on your 18th birthday, is your "Life Theme""
Accordingly, then, here are my songs:
#1 when I was born:
UK: All Shook Up - Elvis Presley
US: Let Me Be Your Teddy Bear - Elvis Presley
These seem curiously apt.
#1 on my 18th
UK: Barbados - Typically Tropical
US: Jive Talkin’ - The Bee Gees
Neither of which mean anything to me

I'm fine with the 1972 ones but not so keen on the 1990 tracks, either as music or themes for life. The fact that Jim Henson and Sammy Davis Jr died on my 18th birthday doesn't seem inspiring either.
