There are two Birthday Bunch members today who don't mind that it's Monday! Please join me in wishing a very happy birthday today to Brian K. and Carol R.!
They share a birthday with James Coburn, Richard Gere, and Debbie Gibson. It was on August 31, 1974 that "The Partridge Family" was canceled, in 1991 that Metallica's self-titled album debuted at number one, and in 1997 that Princess Diana was killed in a car accident.
It was also on this date in 1976 that a judge ruled former Beatle George Harrison's song, "My Sweet Lord" copied The Chiffons' "He's So Fine." Here's a fun YouTube video that shows a bunch of songs that sound alike (see 4:25 for the Chiffons/George Harrison comparison). Brian and Carol, I hope you have a day unlike anyone else! Happy birthday from QR!
