Birthday song for candidate Street

On the campaign trail at Friends Hospital yesterday morning, Democrat John Street told the Northeast Chamber of Commerce the plain facts: Yesterday was his 56th birthday.
Al Taubenberger, the chamber president and a former City Council employee, waited for the right moment and then led the group in a spirited rendition of "Happy Birthday."
You don't have to ask what Street wants for a birthday present. Caroline Brobeil, a Street spokeswoman, said that the campaign staff later that day offered up its own song for the boss. *
