"Kiss You All Over" by Exile

When I get home, babe, gonna light your fire
All day I've been thinkin' about you, babe
You're my one desire

Gonna wrap my arms around you
Hold you close to me
Oh, babe I wanna taste your lips
I wanna fill your fantasy, yeah

I don't know what I'd do without you, babe
Don't know where I'd be
You're not just another lover
No, you're everything to me

I wanna kiss you all over
And over again
I wanna kiss you all over
Till the night closes in

Ev'rytime I'm with you, baby

How true

Zala, was Richard Harris King Arthur in the musical Camelot?
Ahh, here he is... (had to Google it)
http://www.publispain.com/super-posters/Musical-RichardHarrisCamelot.htm

He was in a Harry Potter? I have seen the first two, but it has been a while.

Oh, he died. I didn't know.
Well, thank you for that information, I am trying to find a picture of him in the Harry Potter movie to jog my memory. I will pay more attention next time I watch it!
I really love the musical, Camelot. I still have a copy on VHS.

kinda depressing

Seasons In The Sun
( Terry Jacks )

Goodbye to you my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and A B C's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.

Goodbye my friend it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Pretty girls are everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons
Out of time......

Goodbye Papa please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along.

Goodbye Papa its hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Little children everywhere
When you see them I'll be there.

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons
Have all gone.

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons
Have all gone.

Goodbye Michelle my little one
You gave me love and helped me find the sun
And every time that I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground.

Goodbye Michelle it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers everywhere
I wish that we could both be there

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach
Were just starfish on the beach

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach
Were just starfish on the beach

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons
Have all gone

All our lives we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons
Out of time......

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun

"Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson

I’ve done this before.
Something about the song you get represents your life direction or something - I don’t believe it…but we’ll see

Awww everyone else gets dead cool ones.

WN- you get Michael Jackson???? So no fair!!

I was born in 1990 so generally all music then was sh*t (sorry). The 90s should pretty much be wiped from history, as the clothes, music and culture was pretty much so dire that the good points were not enough to redeem it.

And I think mine was "Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini". How crappy, see?
Let me check.
Oh right, well that's the American Top 100, but still even in America it was crap. Some Bon Jovi song.
Aww.

MM ~

Here's Richard Harris -- as Himself (10/01/30, a Libra like us ), and Dumbledore:

I looooooved Camelot My mom liked Broadway musicals, so I grew up listening to the soundtrack with Richard Burton as King Arthur, Julie Andrews as Guinnevere, and Robert Goulet as Lancelot. Richard Burton's version of "How To Handle A Woman" never failed to leave me in a puddle

The#1 song the day I was born was:
Teddy Bear by Elvis Presley

TEDDY BEAR (Elvis Presley)

Baby let me be,
Your lovin' Teddy Bear
Put a chain around my neck,
And lead me anywhere
Oh let me be
Your teddy bear.

I don't wanna be a tiger
Cause tigers play too rough
I don't wanna be a lion
'Cause lions ain't the kind
You love enough.
Just wanna be, your Teddy Bear
Put a chain around my neck
And lead me anywhere
Oh let me be
Your teddy bear.

Baby let me be, around you every night
Run your fingers through my hair,
And cuddle me real tight

Devilfish, I never knew all the words to Season's In the Sun... it IS sad. I just liked how it felt.

Zala, I went the other way with Camelot and was so used to the musical version that the Broadway one sounded weird to me! I would like to see that version someday though...

MNF,

"Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" would not even come close to a number one song in the early 90's (Too old), but it was a terrible time musically. I'm surprised yours wasn't C & C Music Factory. Such a desperate time musically.

Aquarius/Let the Sunshine in:

When the moon is in the seventh house
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius
Age of Aquarius
Aquarius
Aquarius

Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more lies and no derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
Aquarius
Aquarius

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in

Wonderfull!!

Venus - Bananarama

Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name

CHORUS:
She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire

Her weapons were her crystal eyes
Making every man a man
Black as the dark night she was
Got what no-one else had
Wa!

CHORUS

(Venus)

CHORUS

Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name
Wow!

CHORUS

(Venus was her name)

Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it
Yeah baby she's got it

LOL

and the day I graduated just for fun......

haha thats cool, mine was "Every breath you take" by the Police.

I always liked the song, but I thought it sounded a little stalkerish. "Every breath you take, every move you make, I'll be watching you". I just saw something VH1 saying it was talking about the government watching over us. Haha and everyone sings it like its a love song!

Aww...I couldn't find my bday on the site, maybe because...

quote:
I've been asked to shut down the #1 hits lookup function for copyright reasons. And, in all fairness, the information I had put here was not mine to distribute.

So I found another list here...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_number-one_hits_%28United_States%29


I was born when LE FREAK, by CHIC was #1 on the US billboard. That can work for Aquarius.

Aaahh freak out!
Le Freak, c'est chic


*edit...
If I go with the chart you posted MNF, then the #1 song on the day I was born was...

Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick by Ian Dury & The Blockheads.

Never heard of it before. Here are the lyrics though...

In the deserts of Sudan
And the gardens of Japan
From Milan to Yucatan
Every woman, every man

Hit me with your rhythm stick.
Hit me! Hit me!
Je t'adore, ich liebe dich,
Hit me! hit me! hit me!
Hit me with your rhythm stick.
Hit me slowly, hit me quick.
Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!

In the wilds of Borneo
And the vineyards of Bordeaux
Eskimo, Arapaho
Move their body to and fro.

Hit me with your rhythm stick.
Hit me! Hit me!
Das ist gut! C'est fantastique!
Hit me! hit me! hit me!
Hit me with your rhythm stick.
It's nice to be a lunatic.
Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!

Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!

In the dock of Tiger Bay
On the road to Mandalay
From Bombay to Santa Fe
Over hills and far away

Hit me with your rhythm stick.
Hit me! Hit me!
C'est si bon, mm? Ist es nicht?
Hit me! hit me! hit me!
Hit me with your rhythm stick.
Two fat persons, click, click, click.
Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!


Weird.

Darn I just missed Heart of Glass from Blondie by a few days.
