“HAPPY BIRTHDAY to YOU!” | Grandma’s Stories

May 20th “OUR FAVORITE SONG…”

Sometimes… when we get together for a “BIRTHDAY” – – there is someone who does not KNOW anything about “MUSIC” – – and … one of the first things they will say, “If I knew what the notes were to the … “HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONG” I think that – – I could pick out those notes – – on your piano – – and we could all sing together!”

So… this post is for “you,” too – – just in case you need to have the “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” notes – immediately and in a hurry – – – – this wilt help you. Most families have lots of sheet music – – but – – when you want to find something – – and in a hurry – – oh well… – there is no way that you will find – that which you are looking, for – – especially – – when your friends want to play the piano and sing.

A 1927 copy of "The Everyday Song Book," featuring lyrics to "Happy Birthday."

With the few “NOTES” above – – now everyone can sing “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” – – as it has to be one of the most popular songs! Just the other night – on the big box in the room… the TV – – something I limit my TIME in front of… there was a commercial – – must have been a “PARK RANGER” – – starting to walk in the PARK and as she is walking – – there is a noise – the first notes of “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” – – and with each and every step taken – – the next noise heard – – made by animals – engines and every kind of NOISE TYPE MAKERS – – – in and near where the PARK RANGER is walking – – but at the end of her walk – – – – and if you were really listening – – it was the “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” tune – So… I am guessing – – – that the “PARKS DEPARTMENT” must be celebrating a “BIRTHDAY” year???

If you caught that commercial – – “you can let us – – all in – – on what is being celebrated??” Thanks… and “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” to YOU!!”
