Singers Can Only Get Older

Happy Birthday, Howard Jones!

I think it's safe for me to say that HoJo was one of my favorite solo artists of the 1980s. And today he turns 55 years old.

I was a huge fan of his first album Human's Lib, and its follow-up, Dream Into Action. I saw him in concert with Culture Club and the Human League in 1998 (a big 80s reunion tour) and he was really good. His performance on the Live Aid DVD reveals he had a mullet that put all other mullets to shame. He looks much more calm these days.

My favorite Howard Jones songs:
1. New Song
2. What is Love?
3. Things Can Only Get Better
4. Everlasting Love
5. No One is to Blame
