Well it is my partner, Mark, birthday today. So as part of his celebrations I am dedicating this, and the next, post to him. So happy birthday Mark with all my love.'Happy Birthday' is the 3rd single released by Alered Images and became thir biggest selling single. With additional guitarist Jim McKinven, they recorded their debut LP, Happy Birthday, seeing them continue their link with Siouxsie and the Banshees, as the band's bassist Steve Severin produced several tracks on it besides the title track.
'Happy Birthday' saw them be catapulted to fame with Grogan standing centre, quirky voice and bubbly character sending the band to number 2 in the UK singles chart in October of that year, establishing the band as one of the biggest New Wave acts around. This was confirmed when they were voted "Best New Group" at the NME awards.
In 1983, 'Happy Birthday' was brought to more widespread American audiences when included in the soundtrack to the John Hughes movie Sixteen Candles.
