Are you ever curious as to what the #1 song was on the day you were born, married or other special day? You can go to this page and look up #1 songs for dates since 1940. OK, let's look at an event that happened this day in history and see what song the people back then were listening too. On this day in history, 05 February 1953, Great Britain ends rationing of sweets--candies and confections. Sugar was still rationed until September of that same year. You can go here for more information on this event. Anywho, in the UK, they may have been listening to Perry Como sing Don't Let the Stars Get in Your Eyes. Here's the song for your listening enjoyment.

ReplyDeleteThe older I get the more I love my chocolate especially peanut M&Ms! I'd have a hard time with that one too. Look at how long it was since WWII was over and they were still rationed--omg, I might have been slim and trim back then lol!
