Seems I share my birthday (7th October) with the likes of
Al Martino,
Colin Cooper, Climax Blues Band
Martin Murray, The Honeycombs,
Kevin Godley, 10CC,
John Cougar Mellencamp,
Tico Torres, drums, Bon Jovi,
David Taylor, Edison Lighthouse, (same year)
Simon Cowell, (same year, and incidentally, the same father’s first name “Eric”) The only difference is I got the looks and he got the money, but I'm willing to swap.
Sam Brown, UK singer, Jools Holland Band.
Toni Braxton, singer,
Thom York, vocals, guitar, keyboards, Radiohead,
Leeroy Thornhill, dancer, Prodigy,
Alesha Dixon, Mis- Teeq,

And those who died on my birthday include
Johnny Kidd was killed in a car crash and Smiley Lewis, New Orleans R&B singer, died of stomach cancer.
