Stolen from tyffi and just about everybody, I guess....

What was the #1 song the day you were born? Search the date and then post your #1 song on your LJ - preferably with a Youtube vid if you can find one!

I was born during the 50s and on the whole, the music of the time sucked balls. This meme certainly provides fodder for the mocking. :)

But the 50s had such great music! It's so... swingy. *g*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

*gigglegigglegiggle*

Not nearly as bad as Sh-boom! *HUUUUUUUUUUUGS*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Aaaaah--no. Swingy, yes, great--not so much. *GGGG*

Unless we're talking the Platters. I kinda like them. ;)

DUDE! I ♥ 50's music SO much!! And Shhhh Boom!!! HEE! I always think of the movie 'Clue' when I hear this song, or 'For Keeps.' :D I want to put on a crinoline and go to a sock hop! :D

*snugs you* I'll take 50's music over disco (when I was born) anyday! :D

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT I LOVE THIS SONG. (Really!)

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

oh gosh--I forgot about disco! Okay, 50s music tops that! ;)

[rosy5000.livejournal.com]

But I like this song! And a lot of the 50s music!

I was stuck with disco! At least mine was one of the better disco singers/songs. lol

[tasabian.livejournal.com]

"Sh-Boom" will always be cool because it was in the hilarious "Clue!"

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

How do I not remmeber it? *scratches head* Oy, memory....

eta: and spelling--the second thing to go when we get old. *nods*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Aaaaaah, disco was really the devil! Lots of folks seem to like the 50s music...maybe it's me?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

LOL!! I see I'm completely outnumbered here! Sh-Boom apparently is one of the world's greatest songs!


Hah! Love your icon!

[tabaqui]

Dude! I think fifties music rocks! *pokes you*

Here's mine - a song that i remember singing as a kid, heh.



*now with added Smothers Brothers slash!*
:)

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

AHAHAAAAAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!

AND EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWE, SMOTHERS BROTHERS SLASH!

*BLINK* I'm thinking that's an odd song for brother and sister to sing...though I'm thinking that the Brothers twigged to that. *snort*

[tabaqui]

*snerk*
I know, right? And they look rather uncomfortable doing it....

...

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, OMG!!!

[jlvsclrk.livejournal.com]

Mine was He's So Fine by the Chiffons. They did a few songs I like but NOT that one.

[myownghost.livejournal.com]

Sh-Boom is a great song, really. i hear it at the diner all the time. :)

mine is Too Young by Nat King Cole.

[cinderella81.livejournal.com]

Mine's 'Endless Love' ... but I LOVE 'Sh-Boom'!!!! It's one of my faves!!! *g*

[laurapetri.livejournal.com]

LOL mine is Diana Ross-Upside Down but yours has a swingy appeal

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

LOL! C'mon, that's not as bad as mine! Even though it's a leeeeeetle...*koff*

*GGG*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Oh, now there's a song I *like*! *G*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Endless Love....eek. *koff* That's um...a song.

YOUR ICON WHAT??????

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

HAAAAAAHAHAHA! I used to like that song!!

[cinderella81.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's ... a song.

And Ash made the manip a long time ago ... and she allowed me to make an icon of it *g*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

*sluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrp*

[cinderella81.livejournal.com]

He's delicious, I agree! *g*

[nerowill.livejournal.com]

Okay, I just wasted 30 minutes at that site! (But what a 30 minutes they were!)

My song? Kung Fu Fighting. Seriously. :)

[twinsarein.livejournal.com]

Sorry to butt in, but holy shit! Oh, and I love the Smothers Brothers.

[twinsarein.livejournal.com]

Okay, I have to go with everyone else on this - I love that song and I love 50's music. You shouldn't be surprised that your flist does, though. We love you after all, and you're from the 50's.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

*FALLS DOWN LAUGHING*

*loves*!!!

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

OMG!!!!! Kung Fu fighting? *snorflesnorfle* I knew a guy who thought that song was oh so deep--he'd listen to it over and over and even sniffle a little, so moved by its beauty---*SNORT*

[tabaqui]

Weren't they fun? I adored them!

[justabi.livejournal.com]

At least I've heard your song before. WTF 70's, wtf?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

*pees self laughing*

OMG, it's like music never gets any better!!

[emeraldsedai.livejournal.com]

Well, the Crew Cuts might not have been the greatest thing ever, but generally speaking, that kind of doo-wop-y swing was awesome.

The fifties were very transitional. The year I was born you could have Tennessee Ernie Ford singing "Sixteen Tons" or you could have Bill Haley and the Comets singing "Rock Around the Clock."

Guess which one I picked.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

omg, between Sixteen Tons and Rock Around The Clock, I'm rocking around the clock!
