If you saw Boogie Nights you'd never utter such a statement.

Now this idea seemed very sound until I saw the song that was number one on my 16th birthday. Blechh. But for the rest of you, you should consider it.

So? What was the song?

When I turned 16, the #1 song was Coming Up by Paul McCartney - the live version from Glasgow.

That particular song is one in which McCartney played all the musical instruments when he recorded it in studio for his album.

Disco Lady by Johnnie Taylor.

That hurt to admit. I don't even know what it sounds like but I ma pretty sure I don't like it.

Faith, by George Michael. I have no feelings about that one either way.

The title sounds vaguely familiar, but I don't ever remember ever hearing it.

"The Battle of New Orleans" by Johnny Horton.

I've never even heard the song and vaguely heard of Johnny Horton. I want a do over.

"Love will Keep us together" The Captain and Tennille

This is what it was when I turned sixteen. This just keeps getting worse.

Ok, I looked for it on youtube. I do know the song. It's better than Faith by George Michael.

In honor of you, creekster, here it is for all to enjoy:
