Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on November 12, 1945)

Happy birthday, Neil Young! From your memorable days with Buffalo Springfield to the harmonic brilliance of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young—and let's not forget rocking out solo—your musical journey is truly one for the ages. You taught us that sometimes it takes a "Heart of Gold" to stay "Forever Young."

Whether you're strumming thoughtful melodies or passionately shredding on Old Black (perhaps advising everyone it's better to burn out than fade away), you've remained impressively relevant and vibrant. Here's wishing you another smooth ride down memory lane; keep rockin' in the free world for many birthdays more!
