Let's make this birthday one to remember.

50 years old (Born on December 13, 1974)

Happy Birthday, Nick! Another year older, yet your riffs remain as timelessly catchy as ever. From electrifying stages worldwide with Franz Ferdinand to crafting melodies that make even the stiffest British hips sway—your musical genius never fades. Clearly, age is just a number when you're rocking out like it's always 2004.

Here's hoping your birthday hits all the right notes—just like your unforgettable guitar solos and infectious energy on stage. May this year bring you more chart-topping moments, endless applause, and perhaps fewer awkward dance moves (though we secretly love those too). Cheers to you, Nick—keep turning it up!
