This may seem like sacrilege, but the 1981 hit single "Happy Birthday" from Glasgow, Scotland new wavers Altered Images.... is kind of stinky cheese.
The lyrics blow.
It's.... catchy enough, I guess?
But, this.... THIS.... is awesome.
A veritable army of young kids wearing Brobee t-shirts and dancing semi-rhythmically?
A cotton candy drumstick?
Quirkus McGirkus DJ Lance Rock being himself?
Manchester, UK indie pop duo The TING TINGS?
In less than three minutes, this video takes a regular old birthday and cranks it up a full two notches on the happy-o-meter.
The only thing that could make a birthday happier than this here video would be the Philadelphia Flyers clinching it on home ice tonight. C'mon, Flyers!
For a cover of The Ting Tings, the Sunscreen version of "That's Not My Name" can be found here.
