Well, it’s that time again. Time for the 5th annual Birthday Song Poll. This poll determines the song that the Sheriff will sing to you on your birthday. Note that the Sheriff uses LJ as his recordbook, so you only get a song if you have your birth month and year in your LJ profile and we’re mutual friends* (so I get reminded of your birthday and you’ll see the post). I have tried my best to note the answers given for previous polls as well behind the cut. If you want to change those answers (or just confirm them), feel free to vote in the poll again this year. Note that if you don’t specify a song, then the Sheriff usually sings his favorite, the Birthday Cake Polka.
Facebook Users: I’ll try and get you your song, but until Facebook can do OpenID, you can’t vote in the poll (i.e., you’ll need to create a Livejournal Account, which is free, to vote). I encourage you to do so, otherwise you’ll likely get The Birthday Cake Polka. If you have both a Facebook and a Livejournal, and I can correlate the two account names, I’ll try to get the right song to both places (hint: that means leave some connection in the comments; a link to your profile works). You can also leave an anonymous comment, but include your real name so I can tie it to your FB account.
The new songs for this year include “Birthday Cake” [Cibo Matto], “Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen” [Neil Sedaka], and “The Pirate Birthday Song” [Heather Alexander].
Here’s what was chosen in the past:
Steve A.
