Download Music By Happy Birthday !EXCLUSIVE!

"Happy Birthday to You", also known as "Happy Birthday", is a song traditionally sung to celebrate a person's birthday. According to the 1998 Guinness World Records, it is the most recognized song in the English language, followed by "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow". The song's base lyrics have been translated into at least 18 languages.[1] The melody of "Happy Birthday to You" comes from the song "Good Morning to All",[2] which has traditionally been attributed to American sisters Patty and Mildred J. Hill in 1893,[3][4] although the claim that the sisters composed the tune is disputed.[5]

It is traditional, among English-speakers, that at a birthday party, the song "Happy Birthday to You" be sung to the birthday person by the other guests celebrating the birthday, often when presented with a birthday cake. After the song is sung, party guests sometimes add wishes like "and many more!" expressing the hope that the birthday person will enjoy a long life. In the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, immediately after "Happy Birthday" has been sung, it is traditional for one of the guests to lead with "Hip hip ..." and then for all of the other guests to join in and say "... hooray!"[20] This cheer normally is given three times in a row.

In regions of America and Canada, especially at young children's birthdays, immediately after "Happy Birthday" has been sung, it is not uncommon for the singers segue into "How old are you now? How old are you now? How old are you now, how old are you now?"[21] and then count up: "Are you one? Are you two? Are you ..." until they reach the right age or often, instead of counting, "and many more!" for those who are older.[22][23]

The music and lyrics are in the public domain in the European Union and the United States. The copyright expired in the European Union on January 1, 2017.[24] A U.S. federal court ruled in 2016 that Warner and Chappell's copyright claim was invalid and there was no other claim to copyright.[18]

The complete text of "Happy Birthday to You" first appeared in print as the final four lines of Edith Goodyear Alger's poem "Roy's Birthday", published in A Primer of Work and Play, copyrighted by D. C. Heath in 1901, with no reference to the words being sung.[26] The first book including "Happy Birthday" lyrics set to the tune of "Good Morning to All" that bears a date of publication is from 1911 in The Elementary Worker and His Work, but earlier references exist to a song called "Happy Birthday to You", including an article from 1901 in the Inland Educator and Indiana School Journal.[27] In 1924, Robert Coleman included "Good Morning to All" in a songbook with the birthday lyrics as a second verse. Coleman also published "Happy Birthday" in The American Hymnal in 1933. Children's Praise and Worship published the song in 1928, edited by Byers, Byrum, and Koglin.[citation needed]

Nelson's attorneys Betsy Manifold and Mark Rifkin presented new evidence on July 28, 2015, one day before a scheduled ruling, which they argued was conclusive proof that the song was in the public domain, "thus making it unnecessary for the Court to decide the scope or validity of the disputed copyrights, much less whether Patty Hill abandoned any copyright she may have had to the lyrics". They had been given access to documents previously held back from them by Warner/Chappell, which included a copy of the 15th edition of The Everyday Song Book published in 1927. The book contained "Good Morning and Happy Birthday", but the copy was blurry, obscuring a line of text below the title. Manifold and Rifkin located a clearer copy of an edition published in 1922 that also contained the "Happy Birthday" lyrics. The previously obscured line was revealed to be the credit "Special permission through courtesy of The Clayton F Summy Co.". Manifold and Rifkin argued that the music and lyrics were published without a valid copyright notice as was required at the time, so "Happy Birthday" was in the public domain.[41]

Warner/Chappell disputed the evidence, arguing that, unless there was "necessary authorization from the copyright owner", the "Happy Birthday" lyrics and sheet music would still be subject to common law copyright as an unpublished work, and that it was unknown whether the "special permission" from the Summy Company covered "Good Morning to All", "Happy Birthday", or both, thus alleging that the publication in The Everyday Song Book was unauthorized. The company also argued that it was not acting in bad faith in withholding the evidence of the 1927 publication.[42]

In the 1987 documentary Eyes on the Prize about the U.S. civil rights movement, there was a birthday party scene in which Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s discouragement began to lift. After its initial release, the film was unavailable for sale or broadcast for many years because of the cost of clearing many copyrights, of which "Happy Birthday to You" was one. Grants in 2005 for copyright clearances[59] allowed PBS to rebroadcast the film.[60]

In 2010, the Western classical music conductor Zubin Mehta conducted the orchestra to play variations of "Happy Birthday" in the styles of various Western classical music composers including Wagner, Bach, Mozart and Beethoven, and in the Viennese, New Orleans and Hungarian composition styles.[61][62]

I can't remember if it was a level up or chest, but at some point in the menu the music changed and sounded like Happy Birthday but being played in chords on a minor key. I'm wondering what triggered this as I've never heard it before and thought it was pretty neat.

The big winners in the ruling are Hollywood's movie studios and filmmakers, who were Warner/Chappell's primary targets and made the payments simply to avoid a legal battle. Publicly, at least, Warner/Chappell never sought fees from private citizens celebrating a friend's birthday party.

There's no foolproof answer, as people have all kinds of vocal ranges, and "Happy Birthday" is actually a relatively difficult song for novices to sing because it contains a full octave leap. You may enjoy this article by a music professor at Penn State:

This week, America marks Martin Luther King Jr. Day: a national holiday celebrating the life and legacy of the great civil rights leader. As our way of honoring Dr. King, we're telling the story of "Happy Birthday." That would be the version that's often called "the black happy birthday song," the version written and originally performed by Stevie Wonder. It's a tribute to MLK, and it will always be associated with the 15-year effort to designate this national holiday.

While labor unions turned up the political heat, Wonder revisited a song called "Happy Birthday." He wrote the song after he set out to record the traditional birthday song for King, then realized he didn't know the music to that version. Being Stevie Wonder, he decided to just whip up his own birthday song, with lyrics paying tribute to MLK.

Stevie Wonder has continued to sing his version of "Happy Birthday," which has been embraced as a civil rights anthem and a celebration of hope, particularly among African-Americans. With all due respect to Patty and Mildred Hill (and the Beatles), if you want to bring down the house with a happy-birthday song, it's hard to beat Stevie's.

However, those pickup notes are often played as a dotted eighth - sixteenth note rhythm, as written in the advanced piano version of the Happy Birthday. Either rhythm can be used for the song.

Not everyone believes that Warner/Chappell should still be collecting licensing fees for the song, and this largely shared sentiment led to the recent filing of a class action lawsuit in a New York court. In this case, Good Morning to You Productions Inc. v. Warner/Chappell Music, a New York filmmaker disputes the $1,500 she was charged to use the song in her documentary, because she alleges that the song has crossed into the public domain, and it can be freely used by anyone. Unless Warner/Chappell ends up on the favorable side of the verdict, it will continue to profit off its popular birthday song by charging licensing fees that amount to upwards of $2 million annually. 17dc91bb1f
