A bit of musical nonsense.

Since it IS my birthday week coming up, I thought I'd have a look at what was popular at a few junctures of my life...

The #1 song when I was born was this:



1972, March 25 - April 14:
A Horse With No Name - America

When I was 10 (1982): March 20 - May 7:
I Love Rock n' Roll - Joan Jett and the Blackhearts

When I was 15 (1987): March 21 - April 3:
Lean On Me - Club Nouveau

When I was 18 (1990): March 24 - April 6:
Black Velvet - Alannah Myles
(I LOVED this song, by the way. Still do. The remake is a piece of shit.)

When I was 21 (1993): March 13 - April 30:
Informer - Snow
(Hahaha. I can't think of this song without seeing the "In Living Color" version by Jim Carrey. Snicker.)

When I was 25 (1997): February 22 - May 21:
Wannabe - Spice Girls
(Sigh. It's getting progressively worse, isn't it.)

When I was 30 (2002): March 9 - April 19:
Ain't It Funny - Jennifer Lopez featuring Ja Rule
(Ummm... huh? Now I'm LOST.)

I don't think I'll even continue past this point, because I won't know the songs, most likely, and even if I do I'm liable to think they're shit anyway. The last year I remember newer music that was considered 'mainstream' is 2001. After that, bleh. I go with friends' recommendations or word-of-mouth now, because I assure you that whatever the record industry puts out now is utter crap.

Anyhow, I just considered this semi-interesting...
