Neil Young, the world’s coolest Canadian, is 80 years young today, so I had to play a “deep cut,” as the kids say: “T-Bone” from the 1981 album, Reactor, which consists of these and only these lyrics:

Got mashed potatoes

Got mashed potatoes

Got mashed potatoes

Ain’t got no t-bone

Ain’t got no t-bone …

Now, a lesser artist could not pull this off, but he’s Neil Young. Hippie. Punk. New wave rocker. Activist. Environmentalist. All around cool dude.

Happy Birthday, Neil!
