Happy BirthdaySazan Ōrusutāzu

Southern All Stars are beloved by people of all ages.

When it comes to their birthday songs, “Happy Birthday” is the one that stands out.

Sung from a male perspective, it portrays a deep love and the way a woman grows more beautiful with each passing year.

While the song depicts spending a birthday with a lover, it would also create a warm atmosphere at a friend’s or family member’s birthday.

With its sense of drive and momentum, it’s moving without becoming too mellow—that’s part of its charm.
