Today is…”Happy Birthday to You” Day
#HappyBirthdayToYouDay
It’s been translated into at least two dozen languages, and Guinness World Records once called it the most recognizable song in English. Chances are you know it by heart and it has been sung to you as well. What is it? It’s “Happy Birthday to You,” of course! Although today is commonly celebrated as the anniversary of the song’s publication, it likely wasn’t published on today’s date. Rather, today is the birthday of the woman who wrote the song’s melody, and that is the real reason why today is “Happy Birthday to You” Day.
Every day we look for the best in Positive News so that you might have a great start on your day. Thank you for taking the time to read, share and support our mission.
