Unhappy Birthday - The Bacon Brothers

"A songwriter friend once said he thought that often the song one writes that directly responds to an intense event is not as strong as the song one writes second, or at least later on. Kevin's "Unhappy Birthday" was a one-year-later response and still stands as a powerful marker for this tragic anniversary. " - Michael Bacon

Originally from the album "White Knuckles" reworked for the 10 year anniversary of 9/11 with updated lyrics, written by Michael and Kevin Bacon.

Directed by Bill Keller.

Gets prettier every time I listen to it. Thru the Bose headphones the instrumentation is beautiful, the vocals, harmonies....absolutely beautiful.

Great song. I knew Kevin Bacon was in a band with his brother, but I had no idea they were this good. Great video also. :)

A very touching tribute by a very talented band. Kevin, the words are beautiful and still touch the heart as strongly as they did when you first wrote it.
