Take me back to January 10, 1965

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

The Christmas holiday season is long over, the decorations have been taken down, and a sense of normality has returned. The song "I Feel Fine" by The Beatles is at the top of the music charts in the United States and the United Kingdom. Lyndon Baines Johnson is the President of the United States, and the movie Goldfinger is at the top of the box office.

Harold Wilson is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. In fashion, women are wearing miniskirts and "space age" attire with synthetic materials. The "Dolly Girl" look has also become popular. Meanwhile, men are beginning to transition into "surf rock" fashion, which has been made popular by bands such as The Beach Boys. "Greasers", who are influenced by rock 'n' roll fashion, have also become a popular subculture. Because it's 1965, radio stations are playing hit songs from music artists such as The Rolling Stones, The Byrds, The Beatles, Sonny & Cher and The Supremes.

If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Winston Churchill, Nat King Cole, Malcolm X, and Walt Disney would all still be alive.
