Dion is celebrating his 85th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer-songwriter Dion (The Wanderer, Runaround Sue, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 85th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Dion, a cultural icon

Born Dion Francis DiMucci in New York on June 18, 1939, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Dion's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Dion hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Dion as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 85.

Happy Birthday, Dion, you're the best!
