Let's make this birthday one to remember.

63 years old (Born on August 22, 1961)

Happy Birthday, Roland Orzabal! May your day be filled with more joy than the number of times we've all belted out "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" in our cars. Your timeless voice and songwriting genius have given us countless hits—from “Shout” to “Mad World”—making karaoke nights everywhere infinitely better (and occasionally embarrassing).

Recently, you've reminded fans worldwide why Tears for Fears remains legendary—touring successfully and releasing new music that proves talent never ages. Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much happiness as you've brought listeners over decades—and remember: today especially, it's perfectly acceptable if everybody wants YOU to rule their playlist!
