Today is my birthday, so to celebrate I’m going to be lazy and just repeat last year’s birthday-themed Friday random ten, with one addition:
1. Birthday – The Beatles
2. Rock and Roll Never Forgets – Bob Seger
3. Happy Birthday – Weird Al Yankovic
4. Too Old To Rock And Roll, Too Young To Die – Jethro Tull
5. The Birthday Song – Asylum Street Spankers
6. Old, Fat, and Drunk – Austin Lounge Lizards
7. When I’m 64 – The Beatles
8. It’s My Party (And I’ll Cry If I Want To) – Leslie Gore
9. Glory Days – Bruce Springsteen
10. Still Crazy After All These Years – Paul Simon
11. The Birthday Dirge – various artists
12. Older – They Might Be Giants
The last two are, of course, one for good luck and the pinch to grow an inch. Maybe next year I’ll do something different, assuming I can still remember promising to do so. What’s making you feel old this week?
Entire song list report: Started with “Came For A Dance” by The Mollys. Finished with “Christmas Time Is Here”, the vocal version not the instrumental version, by Vince Guaraldi from the “A Charlie Brown Christmas” soundtrack. That was song #774 and almost but not quite the end of my “Christmas” music, a total of 132 songs this week. I’ll be back with a special Saturday version of the Friday random ten tomorrow. Until then, have a happy Friday.
Ah, I see why you didn’t go the Olympics route. Happy Birthday, guy!
