Please Release Me

Darklemon introduced me to This Day in Music. The day I was born, Englebert Humperdinck was No. 1 on the UK chart with “Please Release Me.” In the States it was “Penny Lane” by The Beatles. Hoo, boy…

At least I had the courage to publish my year of birth snigger.
Somehow, I think your older than me. snigger again.

OK, you got me. It was March 23, 1967. I’m Thursday’s child (“far to go” - tell me about it).
My parents had multiple Englebert Humperdinck records along with, somewhat more credibly, a smattering of B-grade psychedlia. I think they became self-conscious when the kids started appearing, and the whacky stuff got phased out as they embarked on the long, slow road to Billy Joel.
