It's not exactly humming, no, but you can still perform a slightly strangled, muted tune for a few seconds before you die.

Should we have wished him a 'Happy Birthday', too?

Happy Bathday, Mincey.

Oh, for God's sake: I don't have a bath every year, you know.

Only because I don't know how it goes.

I can hum while my guitar gently weeps

I bought the Concert For George DVD recently. It's a lovely thing to sit and watch for an afternoon or evening on your own with a few beers. Great atmosphere in the Royal Albert Hall, and the first bit, featuring the Indian music, is a knockout as is Ravi Shankar's daughter Anoushka.
