Muzzle, Contact, and the Infinite Happiness

Happy Birthday, Billy! The memory I’d like to share is about my favourite song: Muzzle. I’ve loved it since I first read the lyrics in 1996. In 2005, during a rough patch, I made a video for it (featuring my local forest in Ireland), which helped me get through everything. I uploaded it to YouTube in 2007 and saw people linking it on MySpace, which I ended up joining. I got a friend request from an Australian girl and we became pen-pals. We then started a long-distance relationship, and I moved to Australia in 2012. We married in 2016 and now have two incredible children and a very happy life. None of this would have happened if you hadn’t written Muzzle, so I owe you my eternal gratitude for that, and for so many other things. Thank you for being you!
