February 19

on this day, year by year

Here is the most recent February 19, and then every February 19 back to 1959: the song at #1 that week, the album everyone was playing, and the movie leading the box office.

Your February 19

On February 19, 2025, “Not Like Us” was #1.
Do you remember your day?

Most of us don’t, and that’s okay. Little Memory is a little diary for your iPhone. You write one line a day, and on this date in later years it shows you what you wrote. Five years of it looks like this:

I look forward to checking every morning what I got up to last week, month, year. Simple to use and a lovely concept — I only wish I’d discovered it earlier.
