Western music birthday songs (11–20)
Isn’t She LovelyStevie Wonder11rank/position
Stevie Wonder, a soul singer with such talent that even Luciano Pavarotti would nod in approval.
His “Isn’t She Lovely” is a song he wrote when his daughter was born, distinguished by lyrics that celebrate the loveliness of life and a melody brimming with happiness.
Teenage DreamOlivia Rodrigo12rank/position
Born in 2003, Olivia Rodrigo rose from her Disney Channel beginnings to become a global pop star, with her raw, relatable lyrics resonating strongly with younger generations.
The final track on her September 2023 album GUTS is this song.
Set to a piano melody, it reflects the complex feelings about the end of one’s teenage years and the anxieties of becoming an adult.
It’s an introspective, emotional ballad—quite different from a flashy celebratory mood.
For those turning 19 or marking a birthday that feels like a step into adulthood, it’s a perfect listen.
This masterpiece, which beautifully transforms the pains of growing up, is sure to speak deeply to your heart on a milestone day.
BirthdayTwista13rank/position
Twista, a rapper known as a leading figure among fast-rapping MCs.
As a master of rapid-fire flow, he’s recognized for having especially high-level skills even among many famous rappers.
His track “Birthday” is known as his birthday song; while it didn’t become a major hit compared to some of his other work, it earned high praise among heads.
The flow and rhymes on this one are fierce—if you’re into hip-hop, definitely give it a listen.
In Da Club50 Cent14rank/position
50 Cent is a rapper from the United States.
In addition to his work as a rapper, he’s a versatile artist who has been active in many fields, including acting, entrepreneurship, and even serving as a professional boxing promoter.
He’s highly regarded as a rapper and is recognized by the streets as a real one.
His recommended birthday song is “In Da Club.” It’s a legendary track in hip-hop history, a unique birthday anthem packed to the brim with the three quintessential rapper elements—money, women, and drugs.
Hold TightJustin Bieber15rank/position
Justin Bieber’s 2013 R&B-style track blends an electro, dark atmosphere grounded in a minor key with a powerful sound that conveys a strong resolve to protect love.
His signature glossy high-tone vocals shine, adding a dramatic flair.
Released as a single from the album “Journals,” it stands as a significant song in Bieber’s career.
Highly recommended for those seeking a track to reaffirm your bond with a loved one on their birthday.
Birthday PartyAJR16rank/position
A quirky birthday song by AJR, a trio of brothers based in New York.
They’re known for their DIY style of crafting global hits right from their living room.
This track appears on their April 2019 album Neotheater.
Sung from the perspective of a newborn baby, it captivates with a unique worldview that blends anticipation and irony about the world they’re about to face.
It brilliantly fuses a distinctive sound—sampling a piece used in a David Lynch film—with a catchy pop melody.
Perfect for those who find standard celebration songs a bit bland or want to spice up a party with something offbeat.
Why not gift it to a music-loving friend as a dose of black humor?
BirthdayThe Beatles17rank/position
The Beatles, a British rock band that was hugely active from the 1960s to the 1970s, are said to be the greatest band of the 20th century, having influenced contemporary music, and they are even featured in Japanese textbooks.
Indeed, they have had an enormous impact on commercial music.
The birthday song I’d like to recommend from them is “Birthday.” It’s famous as a song co-written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon, and it gained popularity for its catchy melody and lyrics.
Birthday Dress（featuring Matthew Koma）Lil Playy18rank/position
Birthday Dress, a collaboration between Lil Play and Matthew Koma, is a perfect track for celebrating birthdays, released in 2011.
If you’re looking for a flashy, high-energy Western birthday song, this one is highly recommended! The song captures, with a light and lively rhythm, the beauty of a woman welcoming her special day in her birthday dress and the feelings of the man celebrating her.
The music video, shot in Malibu, enhances the bright and refreshing mood.
Play it at a loved one’s birthday party and it’s sure to get everyone hyped! It’s a song that will make any birthday feel even more special.
Happy Birthday And Thanks For The MemoriesMarilyn Monroe19rank/position
It’s a familiar birthday song, isn’t it? I think everyone has heard it at least once.
This “Happy Birthday And Thanks For The Memories” is also famous for being sung by one of the most famous actresses in the world, Marilyn Monroe, to President Kennedy.
Happy BirthdayThe Click Five20rank/position
The Click Five, a Boston rock band whose appeal extended beyond the boundaries of power pop.
They’re known for catchy melodies and a sound that modernly reinterprets pop from the ’60s to the ’80s.
From their album “Modern Minds and Pastimes,” here’s one track I’d recommend as a slightly different kind of celebratory song.
Contrary to its title, it’s a slightly bittersweet number that expresses regret and lingering feelings over forgetting someone’s birthday.
Released in 2007, it enjoyed strong popularity across Asia, including reaching No.
1 on a Singaporean radio station.
Its bright, bursting guitar riffs and exhilarating melodies are perfect for anyone wanting to soak in the sweet-and-sour mood of youth.
