Happy Birthday to the one and only Big Bopper! With a voice smoother than "Chantilly Lace," you're the DJ who taught the world how fun music can really be. Who else could give us songs about love-struck Indian warriors, moonshine escapades, and sweet lace-collared ladies—often in the same breath!Your timeless tunes still get us dancing and singing along all these years later. Let's raise a glass of "White Lightning" to celebrate your enduring charm, unstoppable rhythm, and your uncanny ability to make every conversation start with, "Hellooo baaaaby!" Thanks for keeping rock 'n' roll eternally cool—Bopper style.
