Birthday request for Robert, superhit #6 from this day, each of those years.

And in '72, that song is....Backstabbers, O'Jays. Good start, eh?

I have my #1 Hits book, but it only lists the top 5 for the week that each song hit the top of the charts.  If it listed the top 6...

And now Billy P's proclaiming himself a soldier in the war on...poverty? He kinda mumbles that one...

We might get a rarity or two, depending on what songs were in the #6 slot in the given years.

I guess it's obvious that Dave wouldn't've agreed to this particular suggestion unless all the #6's were bonafide hits.  No obscurities here.

well, the aisle is pretty short in the city hall. but we'll be exchanging rings to some flamenco song sung by a real live flamenco star!

Happy to hear this.

Post by: RGMike on September 07, 2007, 10:25:10 AM

Grease is the word, all right-- I'm tempted to WOS this, one of the many anachronistic travesties associated with the film. What was once a sweet, small, off-b'way musical became a crass juggernaut.

And no sooner said than we get a scratchy vinyl version of Grease. As close to a rarity as we gonna get, but I'll take it.

yo, here's your man Mr Benson -- he wants to give you the, uh, night.

Yay Juice Newton!  Layin' out another line (she actually sang this at a Nancy Reagan "Just Say No" luncheon, which I thought was hilarious).

I bet having the opportunity to play Juice Newton was the clincher for Dave.
