What were the hits when you were born?

So? What was playing when you were born? If you could go back in time to the date that you were born, what would you hear on the radio when you turned it on? What movie would you go see in the theater? What was playing?

I was born in August, 1983 so....

The number one songs in America were "Every breath you take," "Sweet Dreams (are made of this)," and "Flashdance."

The number one movies at the box office? You guessed it, "Return of the Jedi." Oh and "National Lampoon's Summer Vacation" was doing pretty good.

That's a loaded question. I'll get back to you on that.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

I was born in 1989. So the top songs when I was born were Every Thorn has its Rose by Poison, My Prerogative by Bobby Brown, and Two Hearts by Phil Collins.

And the big films were Batman, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and Lethal Weapon 2.

I don't. I had to check Wikipedia for my info. I don't listen to very much music.

Well, uh, if anyone have anyway to check what were the hits back in july 1982... I know some of the movies on the theaters back then, because I remember taking a look at a newspaper my parents kept from the day I was born.
“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering
