Apparently, June 26th was a great day to be born if you wanted to grow up to become a popular singer and/or musician. All ten of the artists in this small collection share a birthday today. Help them celebrate by listening to one of their best-known songs. And enjoy! ~ JH

2) OneRepublic ~ “I Lived” (Ryan Tedder, the band’s lead singer, is celebrating his 38th today.)
3) Gretchen Wilson ~ “When I Think About Cheatin’” (As of today, Gretchen has been alive for 44 years. Congrats, redneck woman!)
4) Big Bill Broonzy ~ “Backwater Blues” (This blues legend would be 124 years old if he were alive today. Unfortunately, he passed away at age 65, a whopping 59 years ago!)
5) The Sundays ~ “Summertime” (Harriet Wheeler, the lead singer for The Sundays, turns 54 today.)
6) The Clash ~ “Should I Stay Or Should I Go?” (Mick Jones, co-lead singer of The Clash and the main vocalist of this classic tune, is 62 years old as of today.)

10) Chris Isaak ~ “Wicked Game” (Hard to believe this modern classic is now 27 years old. Even harder to believe its singer turns 61 today!)
Twenty-four weeks pregnant today. (My wife, not me, silly!) So there's this: 24 songs with the number "24" (or "twenty-four") in their titles. Enjoy? ~ JH
