Just ask if you want my mother's maiden name or the town/city I was born :scared:
And the name of your first pet, please!
Ah yes, and you tell me my porn star name! :lol:

Silver Lady was the song which got me into music. I used to walk to school in a Hutch cardigan singing it at the top of my voice.

More importantly which IMCT member has the best song to their birth date? We'll use both US Billboard Top 100 and UK Singles Chart, links below, find your birthday.

US: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of ... ne_singles

UK:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_o ... umber_ones

For me

US: Bryan Adams - (Everything I Do) I Do It For You
UK: Bryan Adams - (Everything I Do) I Do It For You

Not going to cover myself in glory here. Surprised how long it was number one for considering it's complete dog shit.
How ironic 😂
That he doesn't like that song ??

Oh and for me crap and crap.
Ironic because it is crap but the sort of crap that Tom has a history of liking.
Yeah I'm not even going to begin building an argument to this.

Gospel.

I remember it being the first time I really thought about what songs were. Before that songs were just there. With Silver Lady I wanted to know how this thing was created when it didn't exist before. And I wasn't even smoking pot back then.
