So, singing 'Happy Birthday' is sung millions of times a day. The original version of Happy Birthday is soooo simple and is easily sung in big and small groups. So what if you want to sing a new birthday song? A short and catchy one that groups can sing. Well, many restaurants make up thier own short and sweet songs that they sing for birthdays on request. Some of them are so funny and clever. However, they usually don't sing the original Happy Birthday Song because of the copyright. Us at home are not concerned with that when we sing it for birthday parties.
A few years ago, my mother made up a short and sweet birthday song that she called 'Your're Older Now Hooray'. The birthday song is under 20 seconds and is easily sung in small and big groups. In fact, every birthday we sing it to each other in the family. It is easy to learn. Below are the lyrics to 'Your're Older Now Hooray'.
Happy, Happy, Happy!!!! (Sing Happy one at a time and hold it for a simple 3 part harmony)
(Now in Unison)
Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday to our friend
Happy, Happy, Happy, It makes us want to jump and bend
It's your special day! Your older now hooray!!!
That's it. I challenge you to learn it. I recorded the song and it is available on Nooshi's birthday album on iTunes. It's actually the very first track on the album.
