Share what you know about the year you were born.
A great year for movies. The sound of Music, and The great Race, and Cat Ballou, and For a few dollars More, and The spy who came in from the Cold,and King Rat, and A patch of Blue, and Doctor Zhivago all were released in 1965. And Mary Poppins won 8 Academy Awards, including best picture.
It was a fantastic year for music, too. Some of the songs that hit number one on the charts were Downtown, You’ve lost that lovin Feeling, My Girl, Eight days a Week, Stop in the name of Love, Ticket to Ride, Help me Rhonda, Mister Tambourine Man, I can’t get no Satisfaction, and I got you Babe.
TV wasn’t so hot. It was in-between I love Lucy and the Mary Tyler Moore show.
Events wise it was a good year. The voting rights Act was passed in the USA, and the Maple leaf became Canada’s official national flag. Both Sir Winston Churchill and Malcolm X died, and Cosmonaut Aleksei Leonov became the first man to walk in space.
Inventions included Kevlar and the Internet.
And, most importantly,
I WAS BORN!
