Thank You, Happy Birthday is the second studio album by American rock band Cage the Elephant.

The album was originally announced in July 2009 when the band had stated that they would release it in early 2010 with the title Computer Says Move.

[4] The group then took ideas that they had saved for "side projects" and decided to use those songs for the album, which was then given the current title.

[13] The album was released on January 11, 2011, and on its first day debuted at number 1 on the iTunes Top Downloads chart.

[15] On 27 January 2011 the band promoted the album even further, performing "Shake Me Down" and "Aberdeen" on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100, currently gives it a score of 76/100 based on twenty-two critics' reviews.

"[24] Matt Shultz would later look back on the album five years after the release of "Shake Me Down", in an interview with Alternative Nation.

Earlier in my life, I had so much stock in the persona, and believed too much in 'the character' in the realm of pop and rock music, whatever pedal you want to put on it.
