  • While travelling home from a gig last Saturday night / Sunday Morning, the host played a song sung by a lady called something like "I'm Not 40". The song ends up with her singing that she is 40 and proud of it. Can anyone help me track down who sang it so I can purchase a copy for a friends upcoming birthday. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help
