Happy Birthday (Flipsyde song)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 46.32.136.46 (talk) at 16:20, 10 June 2016 (It could not possible have been sampled from "Gomenasai" since that track was released in 2006, and this track was released in 2005. Therefore Gomenasai must be the track that was sampled from "Happy Birthday".).
