Which musicians share your birthday

Think this is the best one ;)

1984, Born on this day, Gareth Gates, UK singer, TV's Pop Idol runner up, (2002 UK No.1 single 'Unchained Melody').

And, less sarcastically, this is pretty cool...

1954, 19 year old Elvis Presley signed a recording contract with Sun Records. He also gave in his notice at his day job at The Crown Electric Company. Sam Phillips from Sun Records originally wanted to use the 19 year old to make demos of songs meant for other artists, but soon realized that here was the man who could bridge the gap between white and black performances.

The start of a legend :) As it was 31 years later when little me was born :D :p
 
You're my best friend :clap::D

Well, indeed. As you so eloquently put it to me one time in an e-mail...

Nonetheless, Kulenty’s music is far from being expressively monolithic: its emotional trajectory leads from dramatic intensity to elusive moments of tranquility, especially in the cadenzas of works with solo instruments, or before the concluding segments of her compositions. Kulenty’s delicate, multihued sound fabrics arise from a polyphony of graceful sonorous strands (extended, slow glissandi) surrounded by shimmering sound planes (created by trills, tremolo, flutter tongue effects and frequently appearing microtonal harmonies). These subtle, constantly shifting musical layers bear a curious resemblance to patterns of undulating lines in the abstract designs of the composer’s graphic art (drawing and painting). This deep-level similarity indicates that these recurring gestures stem from a level of creative personality placed beyond the purely musical.
 
Carly Simon, George Michael
