**PINK FLOYD 'Breathe'** from 'Dark Side Of The Moon' (1973)
I was also bornt in 1973 so it has been very difficult to choose a track from that year because in my opinion it is one of the best years in rock music history: Led Zeppelin's 'Houses Of The Holy", The Who's 'Quadrophenia', The Stooges' 'Raw Power'or '(pronounced 'lĕh-'nérd 'skin-'nérd)' by Lynyrd Skynyrd among many others. But finally I have choosen a song by Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side Of The Moon', my favorite PF album.

The song I have choosen is 'Breathe'.  Why? From the first time I listened to Pink Floyd, I associated the band with **WHITE** colour. Listening to most songs of the band help me to relax, they bring me peace (not all of them, some are even disturbing). I love rock and I love skiing, and in late '80s and early '90s I used to go skiing at least once a month during winter. Those days I had a Walkman. For young people, just let me explain you that a (Sony) Walkman was a gadget to play the music recorded in a cassette.

So I used to go skiing with my Walkman, listening to Pink Floyd while going up & down the mountains.

Nowadays, when I listen to Pink Floyd, memories of those years come to my mind.

"Poupée de cire, poupée de son" - France Gall, the song that won the 1965 Eurovision song contest

Interesting not only because Serge Gainsbourg wrote it. France Gall at first glance seems to be just another cute French girl singing a pop chanson - and she surely was. But even in this old video you can see that's there's more to her, that she has a mind of her own.. And there was more than singing sweet little songs with a great voice: in the eighties, more than 20 years later, she had a come back with [Ella, elle l'a"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgHGU8gqz9U), a song about Ella Fitzgerald.

Imagine this song released on your birth month (and year), it's like it was begging me to post it here! **Sweet Child o' Mine** was GnR's third single, but I feel like it's what put them on the map. One of the most iconic riffs in the history of modern music, too!

Truth be told, it's the first time I've ever searched for songs released on the year I was born. I was surprised to see a lot of classics. I would've chosen **Never Gonna Give You Up** but upon further research, it seems it was released a year before and only charted in 1988 haha! Awesome concept for a contest!!

I've chosen a song, but I'm loathe to reveal my age... what if, instead, you give me a year that you'd guess was the year I was born, and I'll choose a song from that year instead?

do i need to say something, i already won i think :P

I had no clue this was released when i was born and imagine that i have seen the movie. So except the fact that the song is now iconic the movie war pretty good and with many meanings especially for that year. They say that the movie didn't go that good though and the song made it more popular. It was the number one song in billboard and after that the next rap song that got 1 place was 8 years after!

Also this song isn't exactly original as they took a sample called pastime paradise from Stevie Wonder ofc by his permission but he insisted that they had to remove all the profanity and "bad words"!

Eddie Cochran Summertime Blues 1958

We've all been there right? When "there aint no cure for the summertime blues"

Wow tough choice but I am going to go with Belinda Carlisle-Heaven Is A Place On Earth, as I feel its always been song that's played in the background ever since I was born. Its a fitting song I think if you were just put into this earth. The song as been a great reminder that regardless of how bad things are look at the beauty that life gives us. As for facts in 1987 it was the 14th American Music Awards winners were Whitney Houston, Lionel Richie & Alabama also very close to the day I was born George Harrison releases "Got My Mind Set On You"

Ah, now I know how old you are! Damn it, this one is going to give it away too, but I'm hoping you won't look at what year this was released, though you can probably ball park guess it!

I'm choosing this one because the Stones always tenderly remind me of my Dad. When we thought he was going to die, my sister couldn't listen to the Stones if they came on the radio without bursting into tears. I thought about that, and all the music that reminds me of my Dad, and thought I'd have to stop listening to music forever if I was going to get upset every time this happened! So I chose to attach to the joy it brought instead, and realised that all my life, even when he's gone, my Dad's going to come into my head when I listen to certain songs or genres. And that's a good thing! 

Brown Sugar reminds me of being at my Nana's in Yarraville, and my uncle (Dad's brother) used to do up cars in the garage there, and crank the Rolling Stones. Both brothers had the original album where the zipper undid (shock horror). It reminds me of being little asleep under a pile of coats at a party and hearing the adults singing and dancing and clinking glasses in the loungeroom. It definitely isn't my favourite Stones tune, but it was the tune from (eek, 1971) that stood out in the lists. And on this album, it wasn't even my favourite song - I liked Sister Morphine and You Gotta Move. I always remember Dad on a Saturday morning turning this album up to 11 and singing: 

ou gotta move
You gotta move
You gotta move, child
You gotta move
Oh, when the Lord get ready
You gotta move
You may be high
You may be low
You may be rich, child
You may be poor
But when the Lord get ready
You gotta move
You see that woman
Who walks the street
You see that police
Upon his beat
But then the Lord get ready
You gotta move
You gotta move

And of course, that wasn't even one of their original songs - Dad'd play the originals, too, introducing us to the blues.

I'm probably older than most of your, so you may not have ever heard of this song.  I don't listen to much music from the 1950s, so nothing stood out for me.  I went with a top song from my actual birthday so it was narrowed down quite a bit.   I researched to find out something about the life of Ricky Nelson, so here it is:

Ricky Nelson (born Eric Hillard Nelson) started out as a star in the radio and TV series “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet”. He started his singing career in 1957. This song was #1 on August 9, 1958, which is my birthday. When he came out with this song, “Poor Little Fool, it was the first #1 hit on Billboard magazine’s brand new Hot 100 Chart. In 1987 he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.


Ricky life ended tragically at the early age of 45 in 1985, when the plane carrying his band crashed landed in a cow pasture less than 2 miles from a landing stip in Dallas, TX. Of the 9 passengers, 7 were killed in the crash.
