Happy Birthday to YouTube
I send birthday wishes as YouTube turns five. On this day in April the first video went live.
It was just a message from a guy at the zoo.
And where it would lead, no one really knew.
But along came big hits like Evolution of Dance.
And Potter Puppet Pals with a bored Voldy Pants.
Babies that wiggle in diapers and bonnets.
If you like the vids, put a teething ring on it!
Seven million have seen a song for a duck.
And there's also a show called What the Buck.
Even I've tried my hand at this video game.
And auto-tunes brought me some fake singing fame.
But some real musicians who make their fans scream,
like Bieber and Boyle...you know, Miss Dreamed a Dream,
Got their start on this site some once said was a fad.
Well, five years later we still love it like mad.
It might seem silly...but when you feel crabby.
Just look for the clips of the toilet-trained tabby.
Happy Birthday, YouTube.
