DAVID’S BIRTHDAY IS AUGUST 28.
You may leave a birthday wish at the very bottom of this page. Happy scrolling!
If you don’t see your birthday wish on the list right away, don’t worry. It simply means I haven’t gotten around to posting them. But rest assured they will ALL be posted by the time David reads the page (and he always reads his birthday page on or the day —or two — after his birthday; sometimes he goes on vacation for his birthday, but reads the wishes when he returns). —Laura

Hi David, I just wanted to wish you a Very Happy Birthday and many more. I had a great time seeing you and Paul at Surcon this year and I hope some day to have the opportunity to see you again. I wish you good health for years to come.
Sincerely,

Hello, David.
I want to wish you a very, very happy birthday.
I’m very disappointed I was unable to attend Surcon but it looks like you all had an amazing time.
Thanks to yourself and Paul I have made some wonderful friends around the world via facebook. We all share a love for you guys and it is so lovely to find kindred spirits with whom to share our love and appreciation. In many ways these friends are closer to me than my ‘physical’ friends. We have a shared love for both you and Paul and also for the wonderful show you gave to us.
It’s a testimony to the love the characters showed to each other that we are also able to reach out to each other in what we hope is a similar way.
Although we are separated by many miles and oceans we are united in our admiration for you.
Just wanted to let you know how much you are in our thoughts and prayers (and I still live in hope of one day getting to meet you!)
Have a wonderful day, David.
With much love from Paula.
Happy birthday, David.
Happy Birthday, David! May you enjoy a beautiful day surrounded by those you love. Many blessings, much happiness, love, and much joy! 🙂 Marie

Hi David
Have an amazing 71st Birthday.
From watching you as a teenager you were I think my first crush & childhood sweetheart!
My Mum saved up so we could go and see you at what was then the Fulcrum in Slough, Berkshire. I still have my programme. I performed there a few years later with the girl guides in their Gang Show… Dib Dib Dib..
I am so envious of your SURCON participants! I would travel from England if I had the chance!! Unfortunately hubby doesnt share the same passion funnily enough!! Hey ho, Im consoling myself with a box set of dvds instead (sigh!!). To make it worse you are in London soon and I am in Spain. Gutted!!! I will catch up with you again one day.
Save me some cake!!
Have a fab birthday young man! Loads of love

Happy Birthday, Mr. Soul. I watched your brilliant work as a child (I’m 47) and I still enjoy it today on Cozi. I am honored to have met you in Newark in June and I hope you have an amazing birthday. Still Sexy as Hell to me. ENJOY!
Happy, Happy Birthday, David!
I have been a fan of yours and “Starsky & Hutch” since it originally aired in the ’70s and still watch it to this day – and enjoy it just as much as I did then!
Many thanks to you and Paul Michael Glaser for making it the best TV show ever and I hope you have a wonderful birthday and a fantastic year ahead!
Happy Birthday
Happy, happy birthday, David!! Hope you have a great day & many more to come! Thanks for all of your awesome talent you have shared with me and all of your fans. I know you have done MANY things other than, “Starsky & Hutch”, but sorry, Hutch will forever hold a special place in my heart!!
Love to you now & always,
Brenda
Happy birthday, David! I was such a big fan of Starsky & Hutch; I even love watching the re-runs.
Have a very happy birthday. I always enjoy watching you act and many many more. Thanks for being Hutch! 🙂
Dear David. I want to wish you a very happy birthday. I hope you are in good health and all is well with you. I hope you and Paul will do a reunion show and Huggy on TV in the not too distant future.
Have a wonderful Birthday David,I wish I could get to Surcon to celebrate with other fans but maybe next year. The chemistry that you had with Paul was amazing,I think you both need to come back to TV, and keep us entertained! Wishing you health and happiness

Happy birthday David Soul may all your dreams come true… And may your birthday be great…! Love always Caroline from N.J.
Happy birthday! You and I met when you were performing jerry springer. One of the highlights of my life. I look forward to seeing you again someday
Have a great day Superstar!
Happy Birthday Mr. David Soul! I hope you have an amazing birthday. Starsky & Hutch is one of my favorite all time shows. I still think they should have gave you a nicer car to drive in the show though. Ha!
Have a wonderful birthday David..Wishing you great happiness.good health and many more birthdays…Irene xo
Hi David,
All the best on your birthday.
It’s been many years since I saw you perform live in Edinburgh. Always enjoy your work.

Dear David Soul,
I’m not going to say that I am your biggest fan because you probably hear that a lot. Unfortunately I was not able to attend the SurCon because I’m only 15, but I would like to thank you for the years of enjoyment that Starsky and Hutch have brought to me. Watching such an incredible friendship between you two has changed my life. You two have giving me something to believe in. Seeing such a unique bond of brotherhood let’s me believe that there is still some love in this world. A few years ago I was going through some serious depression and I came close to wanting to comment suicide, and I started watching the show. Watching Starsky and Hutch’s relationship has taught me things I shall never forget. It gave me the happiness and has filled such a deep hole in my heart. I find true joy in your wonderfully acting and beautiful singing. Now I write stories about the show and this has let me to my favorite hobby of writing. Thank you so much for changing my life. You are always greatly appreciated to me! Have a great Birthday! God Bless You!
Love Rosey
Happy birthday, David. May your year be filled with love, laughter and fulfilling projects.
Happy Birthday! Enjoy your day with those who make you smile the brightest.
Happy Birthday!! I hope it’s your best one ever and that your year is wonderful. May God richly bless you! Love, Darla aka “Stripe Girl” 🙂 (SurCon 2014)
Happy BDAY and so many more!!!!
Happy Birthday David Hope You Have A Good One And Many More To Come.
Thank You For Keeping Us Entertained All These Years.
Love From Diane. (UK)
Dear David,
Because of Laura and Carolyn, I have had the privilege twice of meeting you. During mingle time last year at Surcon, you started me on a journey of how you were helping in the restoration of Ernest Hemingway’s car. This year, I asked how hard is it to maintain emotion in a scene if, for example, a “light bulb” goes out in the middle of a scene, as well as talking about your movie “Swan Song.” As I stood there this year talking about Swan Song, I was nervous/excited and couldn’t at the moment recall the song Willie Nelson was singing in one very important scene. If I recall correctly now, it was the beautiful song, “Someone To Watch Over Me.”
I LOVED that scene because as Willie was singing, your character was visualizing the ski run you were to do and just watching the close-ups on you, us as the viewer felt everything you were feeling. David, you talked to me this year about Honesty in acting and that real emotions would be felt by both the viewer and the actor IF the actor is honest in what he does. I have thought about our conversation again and again and even right after watching the Starsky and Hutch episode, “Sweet Surrender” with you and Paul. I have realized because of your honesty in everything you do – acting, singing and real life passions such as Hemingway’s car, we …feel and care as well. Have a wonderful birthday, David and MILLIONS MORE! You are a wonderful, caring and compassionate man. Take care! Love, JoAnne McCluer
Happy Birthday! Have a great day!
Hi David
Happy Birthday
Have a great day,
From a Fan from New Zealand
Happy Birthday to you David. May you have a beautiful and blessed day.
Dear David – Wishing you a very Happy Birthday. And a great big THANK YOU for the joy you have given me and my family with your music (and not to mention Starsky & Hutch!!) over the last **** years!!! Love always – Liz x
Wish you a Happy Birthday thanks for all the memories as I was growing up loved watching the show as well as your role in Dirty Harry that was an awesome movie!
Happy Birthday, David! I wanted to attend Surcon, but unfortunately, life intervened and prohibited me. Maybe one day it will happen. I do want you to have a wonderful day, filled with much love and happiness. Enjoy!
Susan
Here’s to a happy and healthy year to come!
David, I am fortunate to be able to see the reruns of Starsky and Hutch on El Rey Network on Directv. When I found that the reruns were being played, I now have the program on auto-record and I see the programs when I get home from work. I loved the program when I was younger as did my sisters. Hope you have a blessed birthday on the 28th and may you enjoy many, many more. Love, Marlene
Hi David ~I saw you in Manchester many years ago .I own all your singles and Albums which now are on my comp and I pod. Just cant get enough of Silver Lady with the TV advert get you up off my feet every time it comes on.
I do own copies of the Starsky and Hutch video sets not all so I get to watch you sometimes on them.
I try to catch any programme you appear on and have done this over the years. Youre a very popular guy here in the U.K.
Anyhow hope you have a lovely birthday and do something special with family and friends and if you hear from your old pal Paul send him our love also.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY X
Hello David,
Have always enjoyed both your acting and singing and always looking forward to your next new adventure. Keep on doing what you love and we will keep on getting to enjoy the fruits of your talent.
Wishing you the best on your birthday and always the best to you! Happy, Happy Birthday!!!!
Kathy
Thank YOU for The Ride Of A Life Time! I hope you’re the happiest and feeling your best this birthday!! You really have given me much joy over the years. Thanks again for all your time & most of all your Talent!!! Michelle
David, I want to wish you the happiest of birthdays. I’m sorry I didn’t have the opportunity to write to you on your 70th, but I only recently discovered this great fan site. You are a fine actor. I’ve admired your performances in all of the roles I’ve seen you take on, but I wanted to let you know how much your work in Starsky & Hutch has meant to me. I was a lonely young man when the show premiered — not many friends. Being able to see you and Paul portray your characters as you did was thrilling. I got to experience vicariously the type of intense, warm, loving, devoted relationship of one man with another that I wanted but didn’t have — not one of sex, necessarily, but one of love. It really lifted my spirits at that time. Even today I can’t help but feel happy when I catch the show in reruns. David, I saw a video clip of you and Paul accepting the 1975 People’s Choice award for Starsky & Hutch, and it’s clear from your words then that you believed you and he were creating something special with your characters. You were. Television hasn’t offered us anything like it since then.
Again, I do wish a Happy Birthday to you, (or, in Welsh, Pen Blwydd Hapus i chi)
David,
I wish I could have met you personally in Newark, NJ when you were here last month, but was unable to be there. I do have a personal autograph from you that my cousin received from you when you were making the movie “Rage.” It meant quite a lot to have that little piece of paper; especially when you are about 12 years old and have your favorite actors autograph! I am truly grateful to have that as part of my treasured memorabilia. Thank you very much!! I hope you have an awesome birthday, and many more to come!!
I hope you have a Happiest Birthday that you could ever had. David Soul. 🙂
Dear David, Wishing you a Very Happy 71st Birthday. Been a fan from the being of Starsky and Hutch and will remain so…..Really wanted to attend this year’s Surcon but do to health issues I was unable to do so…Really enjoy your music and every time I am in my car your CD’s are playing. I know you are so much more than “Ken Hutchinson”, but you always be him to me. Again Happy Birthday and wishing you many, many more…!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday David, and many more!! Love the National Express commercial I love that song!!
God bless you David and Happy Birthday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best,
Jeff Weiss
Happy, Happy, Birthday, Mr. David Soul! I am sitting here with my two sisters, having a “sisters weekend”, watching episodes of “Starsky and Hutch” drinking wine, and eating good food. It does’nt get any better than this. We love you, and wish nothing but the best for you and your family. Take care and God bless.
Happy 71st Birthday David, hope you have a great day and enjoy yourself.I couldn’t make it to the Sercon event but in the pictures I’ve seen it looks like you all had a great time. Take care and all the best for the future, love Dawn x
Happy Birthday to a great guy! S&H was the first show I ever fell in love with and it taught me so much about friendship. It’s hard to put into words just how my life was changed for the better because of it. So, thank you with all my heart and on this special day I want to wish you all the best wishes. Happy Birthday, David Soul!

Hi ! David ! For starters “A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY’ I also share a August Birthday, the 25th ts my 80th. We also share something in common, and that is a long and lasting loving friendship yours with PAUL and mine with a friend have known since 2nd. grade. We too live miles apart and have not seen each other in years. We talk on the phone and think of each other often, it is a very close relationship as yours is with Paul. Isn’t nice and such a warm feeling to know someone cares and
loves you what you are. Wishing you a long and healthy live Cookie
David,
Best wishes and many happy returns to you..
With respect.

Happy birthday David.
Loved you then, love you still……Always have, always will…!!

There are very few people in this world that, although we never met them in person, we consider them family. You ARE one of them.
Happy birthday, David! A big hug from Buenos Aires 🙂
Feliz Cumpleanos!, Senor Soul, May GOD BLESS you many more years to come, thanks for entertaining us and keeping me out of trouble.
All the best of everything to you on your birthday and every day! And thanks for all the enjoyment your work has brought me over the years! : ) Alyson H., Canada
Happy Birthday David! Was a HUGE fan, never missed Starsky & Hutch & love that it is back on every Tuesday night , now I watch it w/my daughter. Still listen to your album which I was thrilled you autographed for me when I had the pleasure of meeting you in Boston, MA. Have a very happy & blessed birthday!! You still got it :)!!!
Happy Birthday, David! I’m sure the first time I ever saw you was on Flipper, but I have no memory of that. However, I enjoyed watching every TV series you did and many of the movies you’ve made. I got rid of most of my large album collection, but have never parted with “David Soul” and “Playing to An Audience of One”. You’ve past your singing talent on to China, and I can see why you’re such a proud father. I’ve enjoyed having time in the last year or so to re-watch many of the shows and movies and catch up on what you’ve been doing. Thank you for sharing your talents with us and for giving to so many through your charitable works, and inspiring others to give back, too. Hope you have a fun time celebrating and have many more great years ahead! Love from Oklahoma! Amy
Hello David, just want to say I enjoyed it immensely being seated at your table at SurCon, I could listen to you talk all day. I want to thank you for all the years of enjoyment you have provided to all of your fans through song, stage and screen. Wishing you a birthday filled with love and laughter.
Thanks for being you, love ya’
HAPPY 71st DAVID – Writing this and taking a trip down memory lane – first time I spotted you was on a TV placed in a shop window in 1965 when I was walking to work and boy did you catch my eye – Ive been a fan ever since and seen you several times in concerts up and down the UK – even travelled once to Bradford to listen to your concert. I still have my photos of you playing the bongo drums with your white hat on!! Watched you on stage too in London doing your straight acting and managed to get your autograph. Have a great day and remember ‘Don’t Give Up On Us Baby’ xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Dear David,
Wishing you a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY, great to see you in the UK..
Love your Starsky and Hutch work and your music.
My very best wishes

Wishing you a very happy birthday!!! I’ve enjoyed both your acting and seeing you in concert in Illinois many years ago. You are a wonderful, talented performer. Enjoy your special day!! Kathy
Hi David, I hope you have a very wonderful birthday. I watch Starsky & Hutch every Tuesday night on Cozi and even tho I have all the episodes on DVD, it’s like watching it for the first time.
May you have many more birthdays and a long, healthy life. Best wishes and God Bless! Cheryl E Coatesville, PA.
Dear Mr. Solberg, When I was thinking of what to say to you, a flood of memories came rushing to mind. First thing is, the day God blessed your parents with you, at the same time the world was blessed too (although the world wouldn’t know this until a few decades later!). The memories of all the tv, movies, and, music you have given us is jaw-dropping, not to mention your charitable work, awe-inspiring. My memories do not only include theatrics, or, music, but, times with my parents, and, begging my father to buy S&H posters, or, purchasing a 45 at the record store (OMG, did I say record store?!) of DGUOUB (which I still have in the sleeve). Those memories are priceless to me, and, you gave them to me, without your knowledge. How do you simply say “Thank You” for that? Well, that’s all I can say at this moment, and, that the greatest thing you achieved in your lifetime is, your children. On your b-day, when you look back on everything you’ve done in 71 years, THAT is the finest project you’ll ever accomplish! I wish you a very, healthy, happy, birthday, and, many, many more! With much affection, Stacy in Staten Island, NY (orig. Brooklyn).
Lieber David
Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu Ihrem Geburtstag. Ich wünsche Ihnen Alles Gute und vor allem
viel, viel Gesundheit. Auch für Ihre Familie.
Liebe Grüße von Peggy aus Good OLd Germany
Hi David, I met you at both Surcon events. I sat right next to you at Surcon 2014 in New Jersey. It was a privilege and honor to have met you both times. Times I’ll never forget. I want to wish you the greatest of birthdays. I hope it’s a great day for you and I hope you have many, many more. Take care, Dan O’Connor Jr from Scituate, MA
Happy Birthday David. Hope you a wonderful day.Love all your t.v. shows,movies and of coarse your music. Love Debbie
I hope you realize that you are still so admired and appreciated. Happy Birthday!!!
Hi David!
Starsky and Hutch was such a fun part of my childhood and is still pretty special to me now. I want to thank you for being an integral part of that. Loved you music career and seeing you perform at Radio City Music Hall. That may have been the first concert I went to that wasn’t a freebie. It was definitely the first time Mom let me go to that kind of venue alone. I was one superbly ecstatic teenager at that concert!! I hope I never forget that day or those feelings! Our pictures as I arrived at Surcon 2014 are amazing! Thanks for your participation at both events and for giving me more memories to cherish. I could say more, but you’d be pushin’ 75 by the time I got through! I wish you a wonderful, love heaped, fun- filled and happiest of birthdays ever!!! And my God bless you and yours ALWAYS!
Love you!

Hi David! I want to wish you a very Happy 71st Birthday!! I hope you have a very happy and special day! I have a August birthday too! My birthday is the 7th of August. I would love to see you and Paul in person someday but, I don’t think that will happen because I live in Indiana. I have always been a fan of your show and I watch it all the time on ELREY because I have Direct TV. I hope you have a great birthday that’s filled with happy and special memories!

Hello David,
You have read so many Pablo poems to people, I wanted to send this one to you for your Birthday. One of my favorites.
“Leaning into the afternoons”
Leaning into the afternoons,
I cast my sad nets towards your oceanic eyes.
There, In the highest blaze my solitude lengthens and flames;
It’s arms turning like a drowning woman’s.
I send out red signals across your absent eyes
That wave like the sea, or the beach by a lighthouse.
You keep only darkness my distant male;
From your regard sometimes, the coast of dread emerges.
Leaning into the afternoons.
I fling my sad nets to that sea that is thrashed
By your oceanic eyes.
The birds of night peck at the first stars
The flash like my soul when I love you.
The night, gallops on it’s shadowy mare
Shedding blue tassels over the land.
I love you for all the joy you have gave me with your singing and acting. I know you have brought
joy to a lot of people and I want to thank you for that. I have always wanted to meet you but… I know I never will. I have friends that have and they have all told me what a nice man you are. I do envy them but I will have to live through their stories. 🙂
I want to wish you a very Happy and Blessed Birthday and I Hope all of your Birthday Wishes Come True for you.
I have to make another comment here.
This is for the great acting both for David Soul and Paul Micheal Glaser on Starsky & Hutch.
I just want to say something that I have never talked about. I just read a comment that was left on here by Rosey on August 2nd. How she was going through some troubles and how this show changed her life. I watched this show back in the 70’s and my Dad had died suddenly when I was 10 and my mom started working when I was 13 double and triple shifts. I was home alone a lot ! I was starting to get into trouble,doing stuff I shouldn’t be and going down the wrong road. I started watching S & H and seeing Hutch the way his character cared for people made me think that there was people out there who cared also. With Rosey posting this I now know that I was not alone thinking this show did not only effect me like this. Good Work Guys !!!!
Happy Birthday Handsome!

Best wishes for a wonderful 71st Birthday. Wishing you lots of love, sunshine, surprises and health always. Thank you for making us smile, for your talent, for your music, and most of all for being “real”. Joan Miller, Québec City, Canada.
Happy and Blessed 71st birthday, Mr. David Solberg. I am still an avid fan of Starsky and Hutch as I do my best to watch every episode on El Rey (Channel 120 on Comcast in Miami, Florida). I was so happy and delighted to see you and Paul Michael Glaser appear as very special guests (and special people in general) in the Starsky and Hutch movie that featured Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson. I screamed with joy as I saw you two, and I called your real names, as it made my day. The chemistry and acting in all the original episodes were excellent, as you and Paul Michael Glaser were very handsome, witty, comical, and talented young men, and nothing has changed as you all are older men. Enjoy your 71st birthday in advance, as it is up and coming. I extend my love to you and your family.
may your birthday be filled with love and kindness, may your family and friends share your day, and may you have many many
more birthdays before you.
God bless x

Happy Birthday David, Wishing you the best on your birthday and many years to come.
David just want to say Happy Birthday to a great man who has brought me so much joy in your shows of Starsky and Hutch, all your movies and your music. Hope you are doing well. I had the chance to meet Paul when he came to Kentucky. Wish I could have been able to come to one of the Surcons but could not. Wish I could have been able to meet you. Love the commercial of you driving a bus it was awesome wish I could get you behind the wheel of my school bus. Not as fancy as the one in the commercial but it is still a sweet ride any way with all the smiling face of my kids form K to 6th grade that I done for 16 years. If you ever make it to Kentucky let me know would love to see you. Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND MANY MORE! Take care friend! Hugs vicky
Happy Birthday David! I’ve been a huge fan since Starsky and Hutch, and always will be. I hope you have a great year filled with happiness! Best wishes, Anne Cook
Mr. Soul, I want to wish you “Happy Birthday” ,may your life be full of Blessings, happiness and health always!
I admire your work as an actor, singer, songwriter, producer very much since a very long time ago.
I guess words are really not enough to express my admiration and respect for you!
You have an incredible talent!
I wish you all the best!
