Declan’s 21st Birthday – December 14
Declan is turning 21 next month (14th) and we are planning a couple of surprises for him.
So please keep this secret so the surprise doesn’t get spoiled, and please feel free to pass on to any mutual friends of yours and Declan’s if they would want to participate.
We’ve prepared a video to explain the surprise, just follow the instructions and use the links below to be a part of Declan’s birthday surprise.
The Wrangler crew are putting together a special version of SUM 41’s We’re All To Blame featuring a range of musicians and hopefully you (regardless of whether you’re a musician or not). We’d love you to contribute “gang vocals” for four lines of the song, just recorded on your phone.
Firstly though, at the end (or maybe at the start) of the video, we will feature as many people as humanly possible wishing Declan a happy 21st birthday, we’ll stack the audio and do a massive “brady bunch” style screen featuring everyone’s faces. So it’s important that when you record your video, you do it roughly at the same pace as Jackson does in the video.
Just record a video (horizontally) saying: “Happy 21st Birthday, Declan”
Upload your “Happy 21st Birthday, Declan” videos here: https://bit.ly/2YS7Ggb and use your name as the file name (if you’re struggling to upload a video, make sure you’re signed into your Gmail account through your browser.)
Deadline: December 1 (just do it now, it’ll take a minute or two) – we’ve extended until Saturday December 4,
If you’d like to give the Gang Vocals a go, it’s so easy – you don’t need to be a singer – you can find the original song here – https://youtu.be/aUultIb2pPc
The lyrics to the Gang Vocals are below in brackets below and happen at the 39 sec and 1 min 32 sec mark of the song – just follow the instructions in the video, record your video horizontally and Dean from Wrangler will grab the audio and we’ll incorporate the video into the film clip. Rename the video with “gang-yourname”

LYRICS
1st Verse (Gang Vocals in brackets)
How can we still succeed taking what we don’t need?
Telling lies, alibis, selling all the hate that we breed,
Super-size our tragedies (you can’t define me, or justify greed),
Bought in the land of the free, (land, free)
2nd Verse (Gang Vocals in brackets)
Realize we spend our lives living in a culture of fear,
Stand to salute say thanks to the man of the year,
How did we all come to this (you can’t define me, or justify greed),
A greed that we just can’t resist (resist)
Thanks for being a part of celebrating Declan’s birthday, we’re all in need of a celebration after the past couple of years.
Cheers
Al
