Happy birthday to Chris Squire, the legendary bass maestro who gave us more unforgettable grooves than our ears knew how to handle! From co-founding Yes and redefining progressive rock in the 1970s, your thunderous yet melodic bass lines have always rocked harder—and lower—than anyone else. Nearly half a century later and "Owner of a Lonely Heart" still makes air guitars appear out of nowhere.Your genius resonates timelessly—from mind-blowing solos during concerts (proving once again that everyone secretly wishes they played bass), down to inspiring countless others with funky rhythms only you could pull off. Keep rocking eternally, Chris—we salute you!
