Accordingly, the band chose Rushent to produce their next album, ''Pinky Blue'' (1982), in its entirety. The song appeared in the 1984 John Hughes movie ''Sixteen Candles''. "Happy Birthday" has been covered by The Ting Tings, for the children's television show ''Yo Gabba Gabba!'' in 2008, and by The Wedding Present, for their 1993 compilation album ''John Peel Sessions 1987-1990'' as well as by Thomas Fagerlund (The Kissaway Trail) with Christian Hjelm (Figurines) in 2010. ==Personnel== *Vocals: Clare Grogan *Guitar: Jim McKinven, Tony McDaid *Bass: Johnny McElhone *Drums: Tich Anderson 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Happy Birthday (Altered Images song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
