Bohemian Rhapsody was number 1 in the UK on the day I was born. Beat that! But 'Fly Robin, Fly' by Silver Convention was number 1 in the U.S., whatever the fuck that is....
I haven't checked the other countries yet.
What was your number 1 song?

    According to Billboard, it was Elton John's cover of "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds."

    Strange coincidence, since I was named after an Elton John song.

    God, David Soul sucked.

    When his album, "Playing to an Audience of One", came out in the 70s. Rolling Stone's review was "make that none, Dave...just heard the album".

    Is Eddie wearing an earring in that picture? Or is that hair? Please tell me it's hair.

    Pretty sure it's an earring...what's wrong with an earring?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Oh nothing, lol. Not used to seeing him with one. It's almost too much to see him with dyed blonde hair AND an earring.
