Eat What You Want Day (All right! This one is for me!)
1949 - Siam officially changed its name to Thailand for the second time.
1941 - Eric Burdon (Eric Victor Burdon) was born. He is the lead singer for the Animals. He joined the original band in 1962 and War in 1969. Some of their well-known hits are House of the Rising Sun, Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood, We Gotta Get Out of This Place.
He has held the Animals together but with different band members. On May 10, 2018, the night before his 77th birthday, he played to a packed house in Massachusetts.
In 2008 he was ranked #57 in Rolling Stone's list of The 100 Greatest Singers of All Time.
My favorite song is House of the Rising Sun:

Can't believe he was ranked #57 in 2008 and even so I haven't heard that one yet. I feel ignorant xD.
I'm on it. Thanks for your recommendation.
