While we're all in lockdown, many of us are turning to music to help us through these strange times. 

Lots of us are streaming uplifting classics - including S Club 7's Reach and Pharrell's Happy - while others have sought humour in isolation-themed songs, such as R.E.M's It's The End Of The World As We Know It. Check out the UK's Top 100 Official Lockdown Listening List here.

But what one song truly defines your time in quarantine? The answer, apparently, is what was the Number 1 single on your 12th birthday. The post is being widely shared online and it's throwing up some, well, interesting options. 

So, what are you waiting for? To find out what your quarantine theme is, simply enter the date of your 12th birthday in our Official Chart archive. Delighted or extremely troubled by the result? Tell us in the comments below.

You can also find out on our page that lists every Official Number 1 single ever, going back to 1952.

Just for fun, we punched in the 12th birthdays of some music stars to see what song is defining their time lockdown:

Dua Lipa:  Kanye West - Stronger

This feels particularly apt for Dua at the moment. 

Harry Styles: Notorious B.I.G - Nasty Girl 

Umm... no comment. 

Beyonce: Culture Beat - Mr Vain

Is Queen Bey really spending her days in quarantine looking in the mirror? We seriously doubt it.

Billie Eilish: Lily Allen - Somewhere Only We Know

Let's be honest, this is kind of perfect for Billie. 

Sam Smith: Frankee - F.U.R.B (F**k You Right Back)

Is Sam dealing with some relationship drama right now, or have they just had enough of everyone?
