Stole this from another forum (actually, the one that brought me here).
http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/birthdayno1
For me:
U.S. - "Lady Marmalade" - Labelle
U.K. - "Bye Bye Baby" - The Bay City Rollers
Aus. - "Please Mr. Postman" - The Carpenters
EDIT: Looking at the day in music, and ironically, on my 25th birthday the Bay City Rollers made the news again...when their drummer was arrested for possessing kiddie porn

Also on my March birthday, for an_outlaw (I think he had a lot of MSP in his chart when he had one) :
2002, The seven-year mystery of missing Manic Street Preachers guitarist Richey Edwards took a grisly twist when human feet were found near where he vanished in 1995.

Cool Site!
US: The First I Ever Saw Your Face- Roberta Flack
UK: Amazing Grace- The Pipes & Drums & Military Band of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards (Wow! That's a Random One)
AUS: Without You- Nilllson
Not too excited about the songs. It's too bad the site doesn't tell you the number one album.
Here's kind of a cool fact though about my birthday:
"1972, Bruce Springsteen auditioned for CBS Records A&R man John Hammond in New York. Springsteen played a short set for him in his office; Hammond was so impressed that he arranged a real audition that night at the Gaslight Club in New York for other Columbia executives. Bruce passed the audition."
And to think, there's that recent thread about Bruce.
