What song was Number 1 on your 7th birthday supposedly 'defines 2021 for you' according a new social media trend.

US artist Questlove posed the question to his followers on Twitter, which has had more than 30,000 shares in less than 24 hours and uncovered some hilarious responses. 

It follows similar questions that got the world wondering in recent months, including what was Number 1 on my 14th birthday, which is said to 'define your life', and what was Number 1 on my 12th birthday, with that song signifying your 'quarantine anthem'.

Responses from users on the lastest trend include power anthem Eye Of The Tiger, Boyz II Men's End Of The Road, and Bob The Builder's Can We Fix It?

Post Malone: A Little Less Conversation - Elvis vs JXL

There's definitely a little less conversation in person at the minute.

Olivia Rodrigo: Everybody Hurts - Helping Haiti

We're feeling you on this Olivia.

Rita Ora: Perfect Day - Various Artists

Here's hoping we can find one such day by the end of 2021...

Cardi B: Genie In A Bottle - Christina Aguilera

We could do with having a few wishes granted right about now!

Ariana Grande: Spinning Around - Kylie Minogue

That's what Ariana and the rest of the world hope to be doing on a dancefloor as soon as it is safe to do so.

This is an interesting way of phishing for people's personal data.

But I can't not bite, especially when my 7th birthday was Never Gonna Give You Up...

My 7th birthday #1 is "Do They Know It's Christmas" by Band Aid II, probably the least remembered version of that song.
2020 felt like Christmas all year long, with everything closed and us all trapped at home. 2021 is so far looking much the same :-(

7th: Pet Shop Boys "West End Girls" (although I really wanted it to be A-Ha "The Sun Always Shines On TV" which was at No.2).
12th: Enigma "Sadeness-Part 1" (although Seal "Crazy" which was at No.2 would have been better as I can then sing my quarantine anthem in English, plus I was doing French in my 1st year at high school at the time)!!!
14th: Whitney Houston "I Will Always Love You" (Perfect in every way for me defining my life).

Oh dear: mine is the apocalyptic and doom laden In The Year 2525 by Zager and Evans, from 1969. Perhaps I'll just go and jump off that cliff now ...
