My wife's birthday week begins now! Her birthday is on the first of December, but I felt it would be weird to do a birthday show after her birthday, so she got a birthday show one week in advance. You'd think she'd appreciate a thoughtful husband like me but she instead thinks I'm cheap & should buy her a "real present."
She doesn't know how cheap I am! This show is basically recycled - made up of songs that originally appeared on the first six or so birthday shows I made her (circa 2005-2010) plus funnies from a couple of shows I did in 2014 & 2105. It was so easy I might do it again! It's certainly more economical than listening to hours of birthday songs to find the three or four I like.
But it's all for love!
If you like birthdays, or want to listen to a birthday show when your birthday comes around, or just want to hear me talk about & play songs about birthdays, you can listen to the show now & on anyone's birthday at Self Help Radio's website. There's no cake & ice cream left but you'll need a password (selfhelp) & a username (SHR) to listen. What's on the show, including the in-between bits, is listed below.
Happy birthday!
