Is this “Number One”?

What comes to mind?
A great 1969 song by Three Dog Night
The 35th most commonly used word in English
French playing card “Aces” are marked with a “1”, not an “A”
The lowest grade in Poland and the Netherlands.
In Germany, it’s the highest grade
To the ancient Greeks, it wasn’t even a number, their numbers started with two
It’s a multiplicative identity (ask a math major)
In Numerology, it means Unity
In data, per Benford’s law, one occurs 30% of the time (probably)
I wanted to be number one, but I got a 3,5,7 and 9
The odds were against me. :0)
