Happy Birthday Jabbles

Today's song of the day is one of the most famous songs ever written and really needs no introduction. On this, the 11th day of September we celebrate yet another year gone by for my friend and colleague Justin. "Happy Birthday" is actually a derivative of an early song, entitled "Good Morning To All." Two sisters, Patty and Mildred J. Hill began singing "Good Morning To All" to their kindergarten class and published the song in 1893. 

Enjoy, and Happy Birthday you old man.

While that was both a meaningful and appropriate tribute, your facts are a little off. I believe the song was actually published in 1893...1983 just seemed a little too recent. I couldn't help but research it myself and bust your nuts.

Nice catch. Darn typos!
