    US - Coming Up (Live in Glasgow) by Paul McCartney and Wings
    UK - Xanadu by Olivia Newton-John And The Electric Light Orchestra

    Seems like a lot of Olivia Newton-John has been mentioned.

    I'm surprised it's not still #1 today. Those cats were fast as lightning.

    Marvin Gaye didn't write Heard it Through the Grapevine, did he? I thought it was a Whitfield and Strong composition. I guess this is just who performed the song though.

    What a downer of a day. Not only have I been drawn into arguments defending Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson, but I find out that when I was born they had not yet started tracking the #1 hit songs.... ;)
