Sam is nine today.
Happy birthday, buddy.
Always try to be better than your old man and you'll stay on the right track.
For the rest of you... this is Sam's favourite record at the moment. I did not introduce him to this one.
Apparently Rick Astley is amazing if you're nine years old. He is da man.
Who knew?
I hated this when it came out. I've developed a grudging respect for Rick over the years, especially when he did that gig of Smiths songs. But Sam has made me hear the song in a completely different way. It's doubly affecting now. In years to come, it will remind me of being 15, and of being 50. How many songs can you say that about?
Happy birthday Sam.Have a good one
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one thinking Sam has better taste than his Dad?
ReplyDeleteNo, you're not.
DeleteHappy birthday to the wee man!
ReplyDeleteAh, a very happy birthday to Sam. By all accounts, Rick Astley is a very nice chappie too.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to Sam - nine already!
ReplyDeleteRick is a legend and I have very fond memories of his song. Glad he’s still rolling.
