Already another birthday! No, I'm not talking about yours, I'm talking about my upcoming birthday! ;-) Yes, Clay, my fellow Sagittarian, it will soon be my birthday too.
But seriously, never mind me - today is your birthday, my favourite singer-man! And if my basic math skills serve me well, it is your 35th, which means you are now middle-aged. Welcome to the club!
For most of your adult life, I have watched you grow, as a musician and as a person. Coming out into the spotlight in 2003 on American Idol, then fading a bit out of the public eye, but still living your own life, with us long-term fans always faithfully by your side.
Through the happy times and the terrible times where people doubted you, or put you down, I have always admired you and supported you, as many of us Clay-fans have. And on this day, your birthday, please allow me to say thank you for sharing your gifts with the world! The world is without question, a better place because of you. Your musical talents, your sensitivity, your sense of social justice and your quirky sense of humour bring so much joy, to me and to many others.
I wish you a very happy birthday, Clay, and a wonderful year full of happiness, fulfillment and good health to you and your family!
