That page isn't very accurate. Better using this one. (http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/member/birthdayno1.php)

That means I was born to the tunes of Long John Baldry rather than The Beatles as the first site claimed. Probably means you were born to the Specials Julz! I always knew you were special!

From the first site -
Note
All dates listed are 'week-ending' dates.
Charts are traditionally given a 'week-ending' date which has always been the Saturday after publication.

If you want to determine which track was #1 on your birthday, you should consider it to be the first chart with a 'week-ending' date after your actual birth date. Watch out for the songs that stayed at #1 for more than one week though!

Until 1983, the chart was first made available on Tuesdays. Due to improved technology, from January 1983 it was released on the Sunday. The convention of using Saturday as the'week-ending' date has remained constant throughout.
