Tuesday is November 11, which makes it the eleventh day of the eleventh month! While the full date isn’t made up of repeating numbers, it sure is fun to see and write (or type!) the date on a day like this.

Some songs also have the number one in the title. In honor of the date being 11/11, let’s focus on songs that have the number one in them.

So, for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs with the number one in the title would you like to hear?
