Let's make this birthday one to remember.

62 years old (Born on July 10, 1962)

Happy Birthday, Grant Kirkhope! May your day be filled with more joy than a garden full of dancing piñatas and catchier tunes than Banjo-Kazooie's theme stuck in our heads for decades. Your music has been the soundtrack to countless childhoods—and adulthood gaming marathons—earning you not just BAFTA nominations but eternal gratitude from gamers everywhere.

Here's hoping this year brings even greater adventures, memorable melodies, and perhaps fewer people humming your songs at inappropriate times (though we secretly love it). Keep composing those timeless classics; after all, you're proof that video game composers don't age—they just level up!
