Just like some people can see something for themselves in the mass
media daily horoscopes, one can pobably stretch it to see themselves
in the song that was Number One on the day they were born.

However, The Beatles' number ones on their individual birthdays is
ironic.

Ringo--about a woodpecker pecking on a tree...him hitting things with
drum sticks

George-- a song with a "spiritual" lyric, "Not caring what you own,
but just what you are"

Paul--a dreamy romantic song

John--a bittersweet number
