Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on May 01, 1945)

Happy Birthday to the timeless Delta Lady herself, Rita Coolidge! Your soulful voice has serenaded us through decades of unforgettable hits like "We're All Alone" and "(Your Love Has Lifted Me) Higher and Higher," proving that great music never goes out of style. Whether you're captivating audiences on stage or charming fans with your enduring grace, you continue to inspire generations.

Here's wishing you a birthday filled with laughter, joy—and perhaps another Grammy-worthy duet (because let's face it: nobody harmonizes quite like you!). Keep shining bright; after all these years, you've still got our hearts soaring higher than ever!
