Five Years And A Day Apart – Anniversaries Are Like Buses

Posted on November 24, 2022October 2, 2023 By Priptona No Comments on Five Years And A Day Apart – Anniversaries Are Like Buses

Today the official David Bowie social media said that the Jean Genie is 50 years old today. And tomorrow, the band who named themselves after a line from the song “He’s so simple-minded he can’t drive his module” (aka Simple Minds) will be 45 years old!

Happy Anniversary to two of the best things in the whole world! ??
