Description:
Imagine eight pianos crowded onto a small stage. In front of each sits an excited musician; the youngest is an eight-year-old whiz kid pianist while the oldest is a 91-year-old lady who still plays at the saloon in touristy Tombstone, Arizona.

The pianists look at each other expectantly, then they begin playing the birthday song....ALL TOGETHER (sort of). They're not quite in synch -- it's HARD to get eight pianos spot on --but they're all very ENTHUSIASTIC in their birthday greetings to one of our very favorite "MacJammerettes" -- CAROLINE!!!

Have a wonderful day, Caroline! And a great year.

Hippie B'Day. ;-) &mdash 06/28/06 - 10:54:23 PM
I can hear that kid trying to show up the 91 year old lady, but she's
holding him off!

Happy Birthday Caroline, may it be as pink and fluffy as a blow-dried
flamingo! Thanks Cameron for one of the most enjoyable renditions of
this song I've heard in ages. :-)

I came back to download. It's such an enjoyable version of this song. I plan to
play it on many birthdays in the future.

Lisa, I am *VERY* flattered that you liked this enough to download and play for future b-day celebrations! I plan to send this mp3 to friends for their b-days, too.

Thanks so much for your kind comments!

This piece, by the way, accompanies a b-day video James and I made for Caroline.

Best ever!!1 &mdash 06/29/06 - 07:35:51 AM
There's no better way of saying Happy Birthday. Got so much joy from this and I don't even KNOW Caroline. Happy BDay to you regardless! And after listening I felt a little bit like I had a small birthday myself...too much good energy!

Thanks, Parichayaka, for your nice comment. Glad you enjoyed this!

"...too much good energy"? I didn't think there WAS such a thing -- LOL.

Caroline, I am SO glad you liked this! You bring out the best in me, as you do for so many people. It was a pleasure to put this (and the video) together for your special day!

Yes I'm weird! &mdash 06/29/06 - 12:53:37 PM
This was fabulous, and as it came to its end I began clapping. It then
dawned on me that I was in fact sitting in front of my computer without
a soul around. Doesn't get any better than that! LOL!

No, you're NOT weird! Let's just say that THIS interpretation of the b-day classic song is a bit on the strange side....a perfect reflection of its creator!

Clapping is GOOD. ;-)

Thanks for joining Caroline's b-day party and saying a few words here!

You're a poet and don't knowet!

It's been so long since I've mowed the lawn that it's grown way past the top of my head! My shack is completely hidden now.

Thanks for joining the celebration! Pink & Fluffy Forever!

There is no greater praise than having this b-day version played for the general public! ;-)

It means a great deal to me that the source of inspiration for this b-day rendition came back for a visit!

Cameron, you dear man... &mdash 04/23/08 - 06:52:13 AM
This is perfect to send to my 19 year old grand daughter who is completing her first year at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. She intends to become an astronaut. She can play the piano and the guitar and she is an artist like both of her grandmothers.
Where do I send the check to pay for the "best birthday gift" I could ever have sent my precious Raychel?
Thank you, so much. I loved it! :)
