We do not mention that name here!   :P  So no, it wasn't him, if you must know the UK chart was hot with Tina Charles' I love to love.  ;D Disco inferno! I like some disco tracks, but I wouldn't ever put a record on purpose. Well, except Another brick in the wall2, I was made for loving you and a couple of others. But my older daughter is infected and keeps asking such songs when she listens them on the radio. But do you expect from today's children, with no.1s like Dustin Biber and Aguilera and Shakira...

I wish I had this no.1 on my birthday Hophead. For all the reasons. (I guess the "ouch" has something to do with ...Elvis?  ;D  But he also has some no.1 after 1977  ;)  )
