Let's make this birthday one to remember.

70 years old (Born on March 22, 1955)

Happy Birthday, James House! Even after all these years, we're still humming "This is Me Missing You," proving that you successfully captured heartbreak so perfectly we've happily stayed sad for decades. Your gift continues to give—leaving us emotionally attached and musically uplifted.

And let's not forget your songwriting magic: penning hits for Diamond Rio and many others gave them chart-toppers—and quite possibly saved several karaoke careers along the way. Here's wishing another year filled with memorable melodies, continued success in writing tunes we can't stop singing (off-key or otherwise), health, happiness...and maybe fewer reasons for missing anyone this birthday!
