Let's make this birthday one to remember.

65 years old (Born on February 04, 1960)

Happy Birthday, Jonathan Larson! If birthdays were measured in love, you'd have at least 525,600 candles blazing on your cake. Your groundbreaking musical "Rent" taught us all how to measure life—not just in minutes—but in laughter, tears, and endless sing-alongs. Thanks for reminding us that paying rent isn't nearly as important as paying attention to each other.

Your fearless exploration of tough issues like HIV awareness and LGBTQ+ rights continues to inspire generations. Today we celebrate you—creator of unforgettable melodies and champion of compassion—with applause loud enough to wake the neighbors. Here's hoping your birthday rocks harder than a Broadway encore!
