Copyright issues
editSince both new entries and song fragments have been added after the initial clean version in an intertwined way, I've restored now all intermediate versions to assure attribution of valid additions under the assumption that any possible copyright problems have been addressed on the editorial level.--Tikiwont (talk) 09:53, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Zum Geburtstag viel Glück
editThis German song ("At the birthday, much happiness") is simultaneously based on Happy Birthday and not based on Happy Birthday. Varlaam (talk) 22:18, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

edithttp://www.danmansmusic.com/childrens/happy_birthday_to_you.txt is posted on the Wikipedia article MyWOT.com. Can I remove it before someone falls pray to whatever threat that site poses? --Akemi Loli Mokoto (talk) 07:52, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
Why was s/he born so beautiful ...?
editThis song seems to have an international presence. Singing it straight after "Happy Birthday to You" is described as one of the cliches that Australians most love to hate; but it's apparently popular in the UK and the USA as well. I've had no luck in tracking down its origin, but it should definitely be listed here, imo. -- ♬ Jack of Oz ♬ [your turn] 07:23, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
As well as "Happy Birthday"
editAs well as "Happy Birthday to you" is not the song "For he's a jolly good fellow" often sang at birthdays? Should this song get mentioned in the article? ACEOREVIVED (talk) 16:57, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
