'Long Haired Lover From Liverpool' by Little Jimmy Osmond in the UK
'Ben' by Michael Jackson in Australia
Sept. 15, 1985
US: Money for Nothing - Dire Straits
UK: Danging in the Street - David Bowie and Mick Jagger
AUS: Out of Mind, Out of Sight - The Models
US#1: Mrs. Brown You’ve Got a Lovely Daughter - Herman’s Hermits (fucking yankee teengirls - it could have been worse since Englebert Humperdink had some popularity)
UK#1: Ticket To Ride - The Beatles
I have seen reference material that dates the composition of The Rolling Stone's "Satisfaction" by Keith & Mick on my birthday.
"Every Breath You Take - The Police" in the US (I do this one at karaoke )
"Give It Up - KC & The Sunshine Band" in the UK
"Australiana - Austen Tayshus" in Australia (no clue)
UK: Eye of the Tiger - Survivor (Sweet...Rocky!)
US: Hard to Say I'm Sorry - Chicago (No idea, I'll have to check it out)
AUS: Abracadabra - Steve Miller Band (Sweet. Love Steve Miller Band)
I totally thought this was going to be a spam thread with the original poster having his songbe Spirit in the Sky...haha!
Kind of cool. I'm off to listen to Chicago now...
Edit: Oh I totally know this song...didn't know what it was called or who did it before. I'll stay in the UK and AUS thanks!
Also, this Chicago song was #1 for the week of my birthday here in Canada as well, with Eye of the Tiger the week before and Jack and Diane by JCM the week after.

WEDDING DAY:
US #1 -- Let’s Go Crazy - Prince (funny coincidence- if you know the song.)
Sorry for the lame video, but Prince sends youtube takedown notices for every instance of his performances he finds...
