If we can fit them in, it could do with a comma and some quote marks:

Happy 75th birthday John Lennon, and congratulations on the 50th anniversary of "Yesterday" hitting #1 in the US   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lennon

I'm in a lecture at the moment (because when I go back to school for reunion i somehow get talked into a lecture ;) ) about the study of the Beatles and they just mentioned some anniversaries I thought could be interesting for quick tweets.

Today (October 9) is both the 50th anniversary of the Beatles song Yesterday first hitting #1 in the US ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yesterday_(Beatles_song) ) as well as John Lennon's 75th birthday (  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lennon ).

Random draft (John Lennon is an FA and trending so probably best article to use):

Happy 75th birthday John Lennon and congratulations on the 50th anniversary of Yesterday hitting #1 in the US   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lennon
