the year ...

1. Zager and Evans - In the year 2525
2. The Stooges - 1969 and 1970
3. Prince - 1999
4. The Clash - 1977
5. James Blunt - 1973
6. David Bowie - 1984
7. New Order - 1963
8. Ryuichi Sakamoto - 1919
9. Incognito - 1975
10. Tommy Guerrero - 1966

Personal note: I wasn't born yesterday. It was 1966, actually. I was always a bit jealous of people born in years about which a famous song was written. My brother was born in 1969. He has The Stooges. When making this list I finally found a song about the year 1966. A bit obscure maybe, but hey, I'm not too picky. To get things right for the next generation, with lots of effort and precision work, I managed to have a daughter born in 1999. One day I'll buy here a nice 12" copy of Prince's superhit!
