Ryan’s Red Rock Trivia: Thursday 12/9

Question: It was this day in Rock History in 1989, this guy started a two-week run at No.1 on the US singles chart. The songs with ‘We Didn’t Start The Fire’. Its lyrics are made up from rapid-fire brief allusions to over a hundred headline events between 1949 and 1989. Who was it?

Answer: It was Billy Joel with ‘We Didn’t Start The Fire’.  Billy was born on May 9 of 1949 so I guess that’s why he started there.
