Find the #1 song from the week you were born (on YouTube) and post it!

This is stolen from CCO on FB, but I thought it was a cool challenge and wanted to see everyone else's.

Mine:
December 12, 1986
Bruce Hornsby - That's Just The Way It Is!
(Clicky)


ETA: Link to find your song (thanks to RDR)!

We Are the World

... and all I can think about is that Mitch Hedberg joke: <p class="message-text">[QUOTE]Some songs have a special meaning for a man in regards to a special woman. But this can backfire because maybe the song had deeper meaning to begin with, but now it's been cheapened. 'We are the world, we are the children. We are the ones who make a better life, so let's keep on giving...' Remember that song, baby? The night I f*cked you in the pet cemetery? That's our song." [/QUOTE]</p>

You're my new favorite person. Mitch Hedberg was hilarious.

"A lot of bands have intense names, like "Rigor Mortis" or "Mortuary". We weren't that intense, we called ourselves "Injured". Later on we changed it to "Acapella" when we were walking out of the pawn shop."

Oh my gosh.

"Hangin' Tough" by New Kids on the Block is mine. Haha.

I hope this song is stuck in all of your heads as it is mine now.

ETA: That's mine for the week and day of my birthday. Second week of September 1989
