Before I found out about and joined ccMixter, I started thinking about copyright laws and how they’re just not always right… One of the first things to bring this to my attention was learning that the traditional song ”Happy Birthday to You” is still technically under copyright. Unauthorized public performances are technically illegal!

This inspired me to write a new happy birthday song… a CC-BY happy birthday song. I wanted the lyrics to convey more than just a casual greeting- actual affection for the person being celebrated. I also created this video to accompany the song.

Why haven’t I posted this until now? I wrote it 2 years ago- before starting this MMT solo project. I figure there might be some ccM folks who would dig remixing it and maybe sharing it with their loved ones. I figure it’s a good time for a new video. I’m hoping to use a remix of the song in the new video. Perhaps *yours*?

There are extra stems in the zip- drums and synth.

lyrics

WORDS
It’s your birthday and you matter
You matter
You bring tons of joy to all the people that you love
Your words and thoughts and feelings matter
You matter
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
It’s your birthday day today.

Stellar Art Wars- possibly our best name but not our only one- is just one of many such collectives/circles/cliques of musicians around the world, This album offers a unique insight into the musical diversity of one such group.

Bands are families, all related , and this represents just a small part of the un-famous side of Essex's rock 'n' roll family tree.
