This will be a new post for most of you because I posted it back when I didn't have many readers. The link to the site still works and you might find the results fun.
Music and memories are locked together for many of us.
Here's an informative site about hit songs based on the calendar. So if you want to check out the music in your history or anyone's history go to THE #1 SONG ON THIS DATE IN HISTORY.
Put in a date and it will tell you what the hit song was that day. You start with selecting a month then a day and it will list the Billboard top hits for that day over a number of years.
Now I suspect most of us (was true for me) don't really remember the songs from our first days or even first years. So you might want to try some other significant day in your history.
From this I learned of a woman singer, Teresa Brewer, who had a life of recording about 600 songs. I had never even heard of her before.
Ok so much for my old history. What about another date like the date of the first post on this blog (June 20, 2006). The hit song for that date (Hips Don't Lie) was by another woman singer, a very sexy singer, Shakira.
(Actually, that first post was by a co-worker singer who some in the office knew as dreamweaver diva.)

Looking back at the hit song for today (Nov. 9) back in 1969 reminded me of song I hated. I remember some girls noticed my discomfort with the song and would turn it up when it was played on the radio. Back then about the only way you could own a song was a physical record and those record players were not very portable. Most of my listening was done via radio.
Oh that awful song - Wedding Bell Blues by The 5th Dimension
- music and life they just go together, even if you don't like the tune.
