In the UK: Philip Bailey & Phil Collins' Easy Lover

These are pretty awesome 80's songs, if you ask me. What was the top hit on the day you were born?

In the USA: "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" by John Denver

In the UK: "Whispering Grass" by Windsor Davies & Don Estelle

Always got a kick out the first song whenever it came on the radio. Wasn't aware of the later song. So went to YouTube to check it out. Its kinda a tongue 'n cheek comedy song from a TV series. Don't ask me why but "Don't eat the Daisies" popped into my mind while they sang it.

Random Fact: Average price of a dozen eggs at the time was: $0.77
