Jbev | MEMORY FROM 1977

Musical Astrology (3/31/77)

LOCATION: Anywhere , Anywhere

YEAR: 1977

TAGS: Hall and Oates, birthday, astrology, blue-eyed soul

PUBLISHED: March 31, 2008

For all you newbies out there, welcome to the only one-stop shop for musical astrology, the science of divining a person's entire personality by studying the lyrics of the song that was number one on the charts on the day that they were born. Happy Birthday to everyone born on this day, but today we're honing in on those born on March 31, 1977, when the top song in all the land was "Rich Girl" by Hall & Oates.

If you were born on this day, you clearly carry a chip on your shoulder to anyone who has, shall we say, a lot of disposable income. This manifests itself in passive-aggressive behavior toward the moneyed ("you can rely on the old man's money...you know it don't matter anyway.") You tend to play mind games to make up for your lack of funds ("you can get along if you try to be strong but you'll never be strong"). At some point you clearly liked a rich girl who tap-danced on your heart like Savion Glover on caffeine pills.

If you're a girl and you were born on this day, you love blue-eyed soul and guys with unfortunate mustaches.

See, it's as simple as that. This first one is free of charge. Next week I start charging.
