Happy 80th Justin.

🎂 Today Justin celebrates his 80th birthday! 🎂

Back in 1966, a young guitarist from Swindon joined The Moody Blues and helped shape the sound of a generation. From "Nights in White Satin" and "Tuesday Afternoon" to "Question," "The Story in Your Eyes," and "Your Wildest Dreams," his songs have been the soundtrack to so many lives, loves, and long drives home.

Six decades on, the music still shines just as bright.

Please join us in wishing Justin a very happy birthday! Tell us your favorite Justin song in the comments 👇💙

Happy 67th Marie!!

Happy 67th Birthday to Marie Osmond, born October 13, 1959, in Ogden, Utah!

Marie grew up in one of the most famous musical families in America, but she certainly made a name for herself. She was just 13 when she released "Paper Roses" in 1973, taking the song all the way to No. 1 on the country charts. That little girl with the big voice was on her way to a remarkable career.

Of course, many of us remember her best alongside her brother Donny on "Donny & Marie," which premiered in 1976. Every week, we tuned in for the singing, dancing, comedy, and their playful brother-and-sister teasing. Who could forget their famous "little bit country, little bit rock 'n' roll" routine? They really were a big part of television in the 1970s.

Marie continued making music long after the variety show ended. In the 1980s, she returned to the top of the country charts with "There's No Stopping Your Heart" and her duet with Dan Seals, "Meet Me in Montana." She also found success as an actress, author, television host, and performer. She and Donny even enjoyed an 11-year residency in Las Vegas, wrapping up in 2019.

One thing I especially admire about Marie is her work away from the spotlight. In 1983, she helped establish Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, an organization that has raised billions of dollars to help sick and injured children. She has also spoken openly about postpartum depression, hoping to help other mothers facing the same struggles.

Today, Marie remains active in entertainment and charitable work. Her 2021 album "Unexpected" showed another side of her voice, featuring Broadway favorites, classical music, and songs recorded with a symphony orchestra. She continues to perform, make appearances, and support children's hospitals. She's also a proud mother of eight and enjoys spending time with her growing family.

After more than six decades in entertainment, Marie Osmond has given us plenty of wonderful memories. From "Paper Roses" to those Saturday nights watching "Donny & Marie," she's certainly earned her place in television and music history.

Happy Birthday, Marie!

Do you remember watching "Donny & Marie," or do you have a favorite Marie Osmond song?

Happy 75th John!!

Happy birthday today to John Mellencamp, born October 7, 1951, in Seymour, Indiana! ’80s fans watched John go from “John Cougar” to one of the defining American singer-songwriters of the decade. His breakthrough came with 1982’s American Fool, which gave us “Hurts So Good” and the No. 1 smash “Jack & Diane.” He followed with an extraordinary run of songs including “Pink Houses,” “Crumblin’ Down,” “Authority Song,” “Small Town,” “Lonely Ol’ Night,” “R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.,” “Paper in Fire,” “Cherry Bomb” and “Check It Out.”

What separated Mellencamp from many of his contemporaries was the world he wrote about. His songs told stories about small towns, working families, farmers, young love and people trying to make a life in middle America. That connection became especially meaningful with 1985’s Scarecrow, which addressed the struggles facing American farmers. That same year, John joined Willie Nelson and Neil Young in helping create Farm Aid, beginning a commitment to family farmers that would continue for decades.

Fans today know John as a Rock & Roll Hall of Famer whose creativity extends beyond music. He has been an accomplished painter for decades, creating portraits and mixed-media works while continuing to write, record and perform. His career has never strayed far from his Indiana roots or the ordinary people whose lives inspired so many of his greatest songs.

At 75 today, John Mellencamp has given us one of the great American songbooks of the past half-century. And for ’80s fans, sometimes all it takes is hearing “A little ditty about Jack and Diane...” to take us right back.

Join us in wishing John a happy 75th birthday today!

RIP Eddie. You are missed!

Remembering Eddie Van Halen, who passed away on this day in 2020. As the legendary guitarist and co-founder of Van Halen, Eddie helped turn the band into one of the biggest rock acts of all time, selling millions of albums and giving us classics like “Jump,” “Panama,” and “Hot for Teacher.” Six years later, there’s still nobody quite like Eddie. 🎸
