Are you looking for a new song to celebrate someone’s birthday? If so, then Just Another Birthday Song might well be what you’re looking for. Simple melody, simple harmonies, simple ideas, not too long and at times a mildly reflective take on the birthday theme. However, the text is never too serious – it’s someone’s birthday, after all! The spaces between the lines of text in the Bridge and the Outro leave you scope for adding a solo instrument or perhaps speaking a few congratulatory words while others continue the song in the background. Indeed, measures 49-60 could even be repeated quietly to accompany a solo instrument or someone speaking. The possibilities for making this song more individual are endless! Optional harmony notes are also included for use with more than one singer. The well-known tunes will continue to feature at many birthday events, but Just Another Birthday Song gives you the chance to present a refreshing, different and flexible musical number when honoring someone’s birthday.Chord symbols are included for use with a guitar instead of or in addition to piano.Also available separately:Singalong MP3 piano accompanimentVersion for SATB choir and pianoSolo voice swing version for those who prefer a slightly jazzier birthday!
