the U.K. No.1 on the 10th June 1981 was... Stand And Deliver by
Adam And The Ants
the U.S. No.1 on the 10th June 1981 was... Betty Davis Eyes by
Kim Carnes
Both okay songs for the time period in question.
I can't get the birthday script to work, can someone do it for me?
Dr. A Cula- Andy Williams is an awful, second-rate crooner, John Cale quite possibly the coolest person who ever lived, Ralph McTell a mediocre, dewy-eyed one-hit-wonder, Ozzy is Ozzy, Stock, Aitken and Waterman were evil 1980s pop producers famous for creating pop stars out of hopeless material like Kylie Minogue, Adamski is a UK electronica pioneer who nevertheless is utterly awful.Världsstad - Dom lokala genrenas vän

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment
