12th December 1984
UK - Do They Know It's Christmas? - Band Aid :yawn:
USA - Out Of Touch - Daryl Hall & John Oates :confused:
OZ - I Just Called To Say I Love You - Stevie Wonder :thumbsup:
According to that site, 4th March 1985:
UK: You Spin Me Round (Like A Record) - Dead Or Alive
US: Can't Fight This Feeling - Reo Speedwagon
Oz: I Want To Know What Love Is - Foreigner
Which to me seems wrong as my parents bought the UK number one single the day me and each of my siblings were born and none of the dates match up with the correct records.:confused:
Sept 30th 1968
UK - Those were the days - Mary Hopkin
US & AUS - Hey Jude - Beatles :thumbsup:
UK - (Everything I Do) I Do It For You - Bryan Adams
US - The Promise Of A New Day - Paula Abdul
Oz - Everything I Do, I Do It For You - Bryan Adams
Truly, absolutely, utterly, simply woeful.
UK: Bohemian Rhapsody/These Are The Days Of Our Lives - Queen
US/Oz: Black Or White - Michael Jackson
29th Oct 1975
UK: I only have eyes for you: Art Garfunkel
US: Island girl : Elton John.
I've never heard any of them.
I feel so bloody old because I remember the tracks that were quoted in above posts by guys who were born in the eighties/nineties. Please nobody say Oasis!:grr:
!st Aug 1986
US: The Glory Of Love - Peter Cetera
UK: The Lady In Red - Chris De Burgh :thumbsup:
OZ: Touch Me (I Want Your Body) - Samantha Fox
My guilty pleasure. What a tune :greengrinQuote:
