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!

The best show I’ve ever seen , dear David , you and Paul were my celebrity crush of my teen age . i really couldn’t choose , you were both great!!!! in my country ( Italy) Starsky and Hutch is on tv again every day and I don’t miss all of them . i still remember almost everything of the seventies shows. I wish you a very happy birthday, lots of love from Italy

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!

Happy Birthday David!

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

Hello David,
My name is Mina Vanegas and I have been a loyal long time fan of both you and Paul. I want to wish you a very Happy 17th, oops!!, 71st birthday. I have been waiting 38 years to take a picture with the both of you and I hope I still get that chance. I have sent you a friend request thru Facebook and I hope you accept my friendship. Have a wonderful birhtday!! Love you and stay as sexy as you always have been!!
Lots of hugs, Mina Vanegas
Hi Mina, Just for the record, David doesn’t do Facebook, so anyone posing as him or representing him there is doing so unethically and illegally. Just FYI! -Laura
David I have enjoy watching your series with Michael and whenever I get a chance I still enjoy watching them today.
I never understood the story of the detective work you and Michael performed in the series back in the the late 70,s but I enjoy them now.
The best one I enjoy watching is the Satan Witches / The Set up / The hostage The Fix / The Velvet Jungle and there was one which I cannot remember the name but where you and Michael is playing basketball with the a small black family, a father his son, grandmother and his sister living together but the boy is out in the street with a drugs.
You enjoy boy’s grandmother meat pies and afterwards the boy’s father named Junior is going to work at night gets in a black or some colour Servette car. The car is falling apart gets chased by a police car and in the process the innocent black man gets shot by the cop who is a racist.
The man’s son called Junior later on in the series has found got involved with drugs when you and David try to track him down and help him.
I wish they would still show the series on Telly now but i cannot see that happening.
Hope you have a wonderful birthday, Mr. Soul! I love watching ‘Starsky & Hutch’ reruns – thank you for the endless hours of entertainment.
Please accept my warmest birthday greetings! All the best! I wish I could meet you in person one day. God Bless on your day. Cheers.
Hope you have a great birthday David x lots of love Sheila and Diana
Once, in an interview you said that: “Fame was like ice cream. It melts.” Perhaps. But, all these years later, since Starsky & Hutch, you are still in so many hearts. Maybe, you are like ice cream. You melt hearts! Happiest of Birthdays to you. Much love to you always.
Cheers and many birthday blessings! The best thing you ever did was “The Secrets of the Sahara.” And you’ve got better looking as the years have gone by. From Jo and Wallaby, Australia.
Just found your site. Hope your day was as special as you are ^ – ^ !!!
Hi David,
Hope you have a beautiful Birthday, I wish meet you one day.All the best! God bless you.

Dear David!
Happy birthday!!
Lia Vogel, Holland
Seeing your add on the TV singing “Silver Lady” brought back many memories from the 70’s didn’t realise you were that old mate lol, you used to hack me off cos you was so young and you looked better than me, I liked the add as did my partner so I just brought both the CD and complete series of Starsky and Hutch, both of which are brilliant. If your ever near Peterborough, give me a call, we’ll go to the gym first, then for a pint, also you can help me with my guitar playing, fingers a bit stiff even though I am about 7 years younger than you 🙂 Are you a fan of Leonard Cohen or did you just like Bird on a wire ?
All the best, Steve.
Hey David, Happy Happy Birthday:) May your day be filled with much Smiles and Laughter through out the day. Enjoy every moment you spend with your Loved Ones today… And know that I and many other’s are thinking of you as well…. SurCon 2014 in NJ was incredible Thank you for spending it with Us. I will Forever carry it in my Heart and have that Great Pic of the 3 of us; how cute it was:)…. kk Have a wonderful day David:) *Always Paula* (P. Quick Palmyra, NY)
David! Happy Birthday to a truly golden voice. Thank you for many years of listening pleasure.
Happy Birthday David. My brother used to play Starsky and I was Hutch. Great days fondly remembered.
Salem’s Lot scared the bejesus out of me.
Love your music and great seeing you on the TV again.
Have a great day.
Best Wishes
David.
Happy, happy birthday, David! I’ve been a fan of yours for many years, starting with “Here Comes The Brides” (I was in grade school 🙂 ). Then I was a major fan of “Starsky and Hutch”. I’ve “checked in” once in a while over the years to see what you were up to and how you’ve been doing, but hadn’t done so over the last several years (life just keeps moving on), so I played catch-up recently. I wasn’t aware you are now a British citizen, and am very glad to see you’ve been active in British theater all these years, along with your music career. It sounds like you’re happy, and that you’re blessed with a lovely wife, family and friends. Bravo for you. I also revisited Starsky and Hutch by re-watching episodes that I haven’t seen in years. Looking at that show now through an adult set of eyes, I realize now how iconic that show was, and how special it was because of your wonderful friendship with Paul Michael Glaser that came shining through everything you guys did. You portrayed male friendship in a refreshing, loving way that wasn’t at all common on TV then. I’m really glad you two are still close friends – what you have with him is unique and beautiful. Thank you for your passion in everything you do – you are a very talented, giving human being. Much love and happiness to you. Mary Conway, Chicago, IL
Happy birthday David from someone who had a massive crush on you years ago.Your lovely soulful singing voice, handsome face and smiling genial nature made my heart melt. Even saw you once ahead of me in a queue at Safeways Supermarket in Stamford Hill. Did not register that it was you until I saw you that same night on the local news in an interview. Damn it!
Good luck in everything you do and have a fantastic birthday

Happy birthday Davidxx xx x
Happy Birthday to a very very nice guy. Love you David xxx
Dear David, I was so sorry not to be able to meet you in Newark. It would have been a dream come true. I just want to tell you how much I have been enjoying your talent. Your acting and your music have made my life more enjoyable. You are a wonderful – born to be- artist. One of the best, ever. Take great care of yourself and best wishes for a Happy Birthday from the bottom of my heart. Miriam, Genoa, Italy.
Happy Birthday David from the Hoosier state! Love the Silver Lady song of course!
Happy 71st Birthday to you David!!! I hope you enjoy the day with your family and friends. I was lucky that Surcon was in my ‘backyard’ this past June….it was a pleasure to see both you and Paul. I appreciate the multiple talents you have shared with us over the years. And I appreciate all that you have done for your fellow man. You have touched many lives and have made a difference. Anyway, for the past three years, I have left you a quote for your birthday card from my favorite authors. So I hope these quotes will bring that wonderful smile of yours to your face. They may not be birthday related, but none-the-less are amusing. I am feeling a bit indecisive and long-winded so I could not pick just one………Dickens: “Vices are sometimes only virtues carried to excess.” Hemingway: “Critics are men who watch a battle from a high place and then come down and shoot the survivors.” Twain: “Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.” HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Love ya, Marianne K.
Dear David, I’m 18 years old, so I know I seem pretty young to be watching a 70s cop drama, but there you have it. I instantly became a fan about 4 years ago and I have just gotten my 16 year-old brother into the series as well. My next goal is to get him to love your music as much as I do. I hope so much to meet you in person one day.
Have a great birthday. Hope it’s fun and a lasting memory.
-Avery & Miles (Maine)
お誕生日おめでとう HAPPY BIRTHDAY David !!
I’ve been a great fan of you since I saw you in “STARSKY&HUTCH” and I love your songs so much.
Your song helped me get through a roughtime. Thank you for sharing your wonderful voice and music. Best wishes from Yukumi , JAPAN
Wishing you all the joy and happiness you have given to all of us over the years. As a teenager of 14, of course, I was crazy about Starsky and Hutch. I have all 4 seasons in my collection and enjoy watching them from time to time. But the most wonderful gift I have from you is your music. Our family had no television until I was a junior in high school as Mom & Dad encouraged family interaction and creativity. They were right. Our family loves being together and has some amazing memories. Music was a huge part of that, but it took us years to get Dad to perform with his girls. He would sing with us at home and in the car but always ran the board when we girls performed. We finally did get him to join us and now we tease him that can’t shut him up. He loves music so much and he now has a recording studio in his house where we all spend a lot of time together enjoying each other’s talents. This past Christmas we even recorded a Christmas CD of a little 6-year-old girl who calls me Grammy and I loved watching Dad working with her. When I wanted to push, he was patient, goofy, encouraging and playful and brought the best out in her. I recently bought your Looking Back CD and can’t get enough of it. Dad and I listen to it in the car often and he loves Goodbye Gatsby, Beachwood Blues, Simple Man/Waking Up Alone, and Jazzman. He and I are always so blown away by the way we can always hear your heart in your songs. That’s what I want my little 6-year-old songbird to know most of all and there’s nobody she can learn that from more than you. Thanks for sharing your heart with us. Didn’t mean to go on so, but want you to know that you are so appreciated. Your life has been full of giving and still is. God bless you and your family on your special day. Okay, enough mushy — HAVE A HELL OF A BIRTHDAY!!!!!
Dear David, My dear David,
This year again, I have the great pleasure to wish you a happy birthday. May this day bring you everything you want and more. I would have loved to see you in London this summer, but fate decided otherwise. However, an impossible thing to deprive me, it’s your beautiful smile… Why ? Because you are as wallpaper on my phone. Have the most wonderful of birthdays. God bless you and your family. A thousand kisses from France. – Nathalie –
Dear David,
I know that by now you must really be tired of hearing people praise you for your amazing contribution to the best-loved cops’ TV show of the 70s (and perhaps of all time), but I just wanted to express to you my real and heartfelt debt of gratitude: thanks to the soul and spirit that you and your friend Paul were able to conjure and bring to life for the characters of Starsky and Hutch, as a kid I truly learned a lot from that TV show. It provided me and countless others with an education on how to live and to be a worthy person – what you taught me and at least three more generations of young viewers was so timeless and precious that none of us ever forgot it, and it has recently all come back to me just how important this part of my young years has been in shaping me as a person. I know of many others who feel the same, and this is all thanks to what you have been able to accomplish. As a journalist wrote back in the day, this series may in no small measure have helped to make the world better. It certainly did make my life better, and you and Paul have provided great role models that still resonate for the new generations. I hope someday I’ll be able to say this things to you face to face – I haven’t unfortunately been able to get tickets for the performance on Pablo Neruda’s poetry that you are bringing to the Arts Club in London next September, but I hope there’ll be more chances ahead… Most of all, I wish you the happiest and loveliest birthday ever for your 71st… you have good reasons to be proud, so enjoy the day and remember that we all owe you much.
Sending you all the best,
Benedicta
David I have been privileged to meet you a few times, most recently at this years SurCon. It seemed a crazy idea to fly from England to Newark for a dinner, but I decided not to miss it. Happy to have the chance to pay tribute to two amazing friends who have given so much over the years.
Way back in 1976 on a Saturday night in our house it was Starsky and Hutch Versus The Sweeney, my Brother wanting to see the latter. Thanks to my Dad, to whom I am eternally grateful, I won.
It was however your music which became particularly special to me, and I saw you in concert in 1980. As technology moved forward I have to thank the internet for the ability to listen to your wonderful music again, each song you always sing from the heart, they remain timeless and special.
I so enjoyed Love Letters in Dublin and your Pablo Neruda performances.
I want to wish you a very happy Birthday, may it be the best yet with many happy returns, have a great day with family and friends. Lots of love Vicki x
David- Here’s to wishing you a wonderful birthday!

Thank you again for the great entertainment during SurCon and performances on stage, I witnessed in the past and will in the future.

Bonne anniversaire cher David!
Unbelievable how many lives you have touched!
It is not a question of films or tv programmes, roles you’ve played or acting ability in my opinion…You are sincere and have a charisma which attracts people to you…that is why you have such true fans…we cannot help but love your inner and, of course, your outer beauty….I looked into a poster of your blue eyes when I was just 13 and felt such humility…windows of the soul, literally!! I put it inside my desk lid and it helped with my exams…never cheated once!
So proud to be able to leave you this message to wish you a very happy day…and each and every single day too! We know you will be surrounded by those you love and who love you and that makes us all feel absolutely delighted! Have a fabulous time!
Love to you from the bottom of my heart

Hi David,
Happy Birthday!
I hope you spend it doing things you enjoy with people you love.
Thank you for all you have given of yourself over the years.
I never thought I’d ever meet you but I have several times now. You never disappoint.
You are sweet and kind. As much in person as I ever thought you would be.
I was especially sad as I watched you leave Surcon this year because I thought it would be the last time I ever saw you. Soon after I remembered my motto. I learned it from meeting you at the Hollywood Show. It is “Never say never!”.
Now I have hope that I will see you again. I am looking forward to it.
Happy Birthday!
Much love,
~Robin

Happy Birthday, David!!!

Thanks for your wonderful work as an actor and singer/musician and director.
You brought so much joy to people and you still do.

Happy Birthday David
WOW !!!! 71 and still super sexy. A lady doctor in a Starsky and Hutch episode described it perfectly… that special Soul-something… “it’s that vulnerable upper lip that does it !” That and so much more! Thank you for making my teenage years so exciting and romantic in equal measure with the sensitivity you imbued Hutch with. Thank you too for the dreamiest records of the seventies…such a velvet voice. Then more twists and turns of delight and revelation from Salem’s Lot through Jerry Springer and beyond. Truly a career to be proud of. You lit up my world and still do. I hope this Birthday is as sparkly for you as you have made me feel over the years. I wish you many, many Happy Returns. Lots of Love Lynne XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Dear David, want to wish you a very happy birthday. Enjoy your special day, you deserve a lot

Happy birthday, David!!!
Happy Birthday David-Love and enjoy everything you do!
Dear David
Happy Birthday
I am a fan from Brazil. I wish you have a great day. You are a fantastic man, I love your work (all of them), but I was really impressed with your concern about the Cubans and also very happy to know that you like Pablo Neruda, unfortunately I am too far (here in Sao Paulo) and I cannot go to see you in september. I am a pediatric intensivist and sometimes it is so hard to deal with life and death, that we need somebody or something to entertain, this is your job, so important for us to keep going. I don’t know with you like poetry in general, this is by Clarice Lispector:
“…Dream what you want. Go where you wish to go. Be what you want to be, because you have only one life. Have enough happiness to make it sweet. Difficulties to make it stronger. Sadness to make it human. And enough hope to make it happy…”
I hope you enjoy
Gisele L. Gurgueira
Dear David,
I wanted to wish you the happiest of birthdays this year. You made 2014 so very memorable for me! I got a last-minute chance to sit at your dinner table for SurCon2014 – what a blessing! I was seated just one place-setting away from you (to your right). It was a dream come true! I have been a fan since your days in HERE COME THE BRIDES…..You will probably snicker at this but when I was about nine years old I placed an entry in my first diary about you….”I really love Joshua Bolt”…Ha! …I know it’s cute looking back, but you were really a great bright spot in my life back then….my home life was not much fun…my dad was an alcoholic and tough to deal with….but he did take the time to bring me to NYC to your concert at Radio City back when I was about 14 years old….he was always really strict with me, but even let me run down to the edge of the stage to get close to you that day….it was like a dream!! I remember those moments like it was yesterday!! You inspired me to follow my own performance dreams….and I went on to attend New England Conservatory of Music (I graduated with a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance degree)….I have been involved in theatre for years since and we review theatre in the Philly area (and as far north as NYC). I still have the sheet music for “Don’t Give Up On Us”….you have no idea how you influenced me in such a positive way….thank you so much for that! God blessed me by allowing me to be seated at your table this year….to see and speak with you in person! What an amazing gift! I have been keeping you in prayer….asking the Lord to heal your body…and to let your spirit sing with joy for the rest of your days here on Earth!
I send you all of my love….sincerely from my heart….Bless you, dear David, on this, the celebration of your birth…(I named my own son, David…in your honor!)
You have brought joy to so many people….most especially to me….and I thank you sincerely for that….
God Bless you now and always…
Sincerely,
Patricia Bradford
Happy 71st birthday to a gifted actor and accomplished musician/singer. Would like to see you in a reoccurring role on Downton Abbey (maybe a cousin from America) or (a family barrister). A cameo would be great too. Reading all the messages from other fans, I get the impression they would also like to see you again in movies or possibly hear a new recording.
Have a healthy and happy birthday with your wife and family (from another native Chicagoan).
Dear David,
Happy Birthday to you. I hope you and your family have a wonderful day.
With lovely and best wishes, Moni
Happy Birthday David, I wish you the best! Tanti auguri dall’Italia. <3
Wishing you a day full of happiness and joy, hoping you are surrounded by your loved ones, on this your 71st birthday. Thank you for all the wonderful years of enjoyment your remarkable talent has given to all of us! I am glad you have been able to triumph over “your demons” and have been able to create such a happy and successful life for yourself.
Please come to NYC and do theater! (Love Letters is about to return to Broadway with a rotating cast).
Auguri from Italy
Happiest of Birthday Wishes, to you, David! You are still so gorgeous! Enjoy the time with family.
Qué pase un día excelente, y año que concrete todos sus deseos.

Hoy a los 50 años agradezco que en mi imaginación a los 14 años, haya sido mi primer amor.

Happy Birthday David! I hope your birthday finds you and those you care about in good health and happy. Wishing you at least as many blessings over the next year that you and your work has given all of us over the past decades. Everything from your music, theater, film and of course, for most of us the beloved Starsky and Hutch series. I must say that when ever things are needing put back into perspective or just de-stressing, I can always count on feeling better if I just put some of your music on or grab one of your TV/Film works and watch for a while even if I don’t have time to watch the entire piece. Either way it leaves a huge smile on my face and a happiness in my heart.
Just want to say Happy Birthday! And I hope you have a nice day with your loved ones! Greetings from The Netherlands
Happy Birthday David Soul! You are a special person, may you have an amazing today and year. Just watched ‘The Secret Sharer’ and loved it. Now I’m looking forward to your ‘Cuban Soul’ project. Wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart. Enjoy! Anja, Hannover, Germany.
Happy 71st birthday! Wait a minute….you can’t be 71 because that would make me 50+ !!!
Seriously, thank you for your gift and the memories you have instilled in me! 🙂

Strange, just today I thought about you wanting to know what’s happening for you at this time and find this “David Soul Fans” ! and more than this just the day of your birthday ! So I just want to thank you very much for all the pleasure we have had looking at all the seasons of “Starsky and Hutch”. Have a very nice day ! (sorry for my english) Marie Christine.

Happy Birthday, dear Mr. Soul… David. I hope that your day was spent with those you love and enjoy. What better gift could we really wish for someone? It is clear from the numerous diverse messages and memories posted here that you have impacted lives in more ways than you could possibly imagine, with these hundreds who have chosen to share, no doubt, representing hundreds, even thousands more. Birthdays are inevitably a time of reflection. We all begin to look at numbers that once seemed so distant. But that’s all they are – numbers, that don’t warrant your energy or focus. Your health, relationships with family and friends, and your current and future opportunities to share your many wonderful talents and insights – these warrant your valuable attention and introspection. And if we strangers, fans, friends-you-haven’t –met have a moment in your birthday reflection, then I hope that our love, appreciation, and support bring you a smile as you have done and continue to do for so very many of us.
I am writing this birthday wish to you on behalf of myself and my best friend Lyn, who is blind and cannot write it for herself. You have brought us much joy and happiness over the years and we thank you for that. Wishing you much joy and happiness on this your birthday, and for all the years to come. God bless you and your family. You made us both feel very special growing up, and got us through some difficult times in our lives. Thank you for sharing your very special gifts with us and with the world. Love, Lyn and Kat
I hope you have a very Happy Birthday, David, and many happy years to come.
Dear David

Happy Belated birthday David. I had the privilege of meeting you and having my picture taken with you in Denver, Colorado in 1974. It was 2 weeks before my 21st birthday. Thank you for the songs and the years you’ve given, and continue to give your fans.
Happy life to you David.

David, I am glad you had a good birthday and that so many people left comments. I saw your new commercial. EXCELLENT!!!!!!! I wish we could see it here in the states. I saw it online. I also recently purchased Picturing David Soul. The book is remarkable. Very well put together and includes pictures from your entire life and career. Bravo, to everyone who had a hand in putting it all together. If any of you reading this comment have not yet purchased a copy, I highly recommend that you take the opportunity to do so. The money goes for a wonderful cause. Thank you David, for continuing to share your life with the people who love and care about you and have for all these years. You are still as remarkable and awesome as you have been in the past. You never cease to continue to amaze me with your talent. I hope that you will come back to the states soon again somewhere near Chicago, so that I may get another chance to meet you. I saw you in Brixton during the run of The Dead Monkey. And in New Jersey a year after. If I don’t get to meet you again, I consider myself blessed to have gottten to see you perform live at least twice. Keep on truckin’. Love and prayers go out to you always. Sandi Lawson, Indiana
Here I am a million miles away in Indiana wishing you a happy 71st birthday. Peace Love and Happiness. Stacy Edinburgh In
Happy belated birthday, David. May the rest of your journey be gentle and your dearest dreams come true. Thank you for gracing the world with your many talents and very good looks. I loved/love Starsky & Hutch. Recently here they play the show at 9:00 and I tell everyone not to call me till the show is over. I feel like I did watching it back in the day when I was a girl of 24. Haha! Peace and blessings to you and God bless. Best, Francy, Boca Raton, Florida
Happy Birthday David! I have always loved your music, and your acting. I have always loved you! You are the best, the happiest days to you always! Forever, Becky
