Happy Birthday, Edge!

Hi PLEBA!

On this day, 8 August, 43 years ago, a wonderful ray of Light and Love who has become known to the whole world simply as the Edge, was born. :wink:

And as I'm sure this quiet, sweet man with a smile that can melt hearts is our favorite Rock guitarist and one of our most beloved members of U2, I would like for us to COME TOGETHER and wish the Edge the BEST BIRTHDAY EVER full of all the Love and Joy that his heart can hold! :up:

Edge has given us some of the most MEMORABLE musical moments of our lives. For me, I will always be most moved by his beautiful guitar playing on WOWY.

But Edge has also given us a BRILLIANT example of what it TRULY means to be a Friend and a team member.:yes:

Edge has always been there to support his bandmates, especially Bono, in his personal life and humanitarian endeavors.
:angel:

He is also a GREAT dad and husband - a REAL family man.

So, to the Edge -

HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY WISHES!

May you enjoy this day in the company of your friends and family. And may your next year fulfill ALL your hopes and dreams!:hug:

WE LOVE YOU, EDGE! :edge: :love:
 
OOPS, sorry, emilie - I didn't mean to "compete" with you! :wink:

We must have been thinking the same thoughts at the same time!

Well, who deserves more to be remembered twice on their b-day than Edge? (except maybe the B-man!):laugh:

Hope you'll accept my "apology" and I hope all is well with you.

Edge would probably find this very funny. :edge: :hug:
 
Yeah, happy birthday edgie hope you have a cool birthday. Its my wedding anniversary as well, 6 years today.

Love and Peace
 
:applaud: :dance: HAPPY BIRTHDAY EDGE!!! :dance: :applaud:

All the best wishes for a very happy birthday to my all time favorite guitarist - may you have a wonderful day!

:hug: :heart: :edge: :heart: :hug:









Ps: Would someone please be very kind and give Edge the best birthday present this year - his missing cd?! :yes:

(Live from Antwerp 06AUG2001)
Happy Birthday, dear The Edge
Happy Birthday to you
You're a couple of days off, but we're gonna
Make it kind of Edge's birthday month we're thinking

(Play the song)
(I'm just gonna make it up)

Make it up as you go along, child
Getta go dances all night long
Gonna make it up as I go along, yeah

Gonna make it up babe, as I go along
Gonna make you a ribbon and turn it into song
Gonna make it up babe as I go along
Cause I love you
And our love is true

Gonna make it up this is in my heat
Gonna take the song back off of my feet
Gonna make it up babe, when I'm asleep
And the soul lay down
'Cause I love you
'Cause I love you
'Cause I love you
'Cause our love is true

When I heard your name I knew what to stand
When I took you 'round by the hand
Never saw someone like you before
Never saw someone that showed me the door
And I love you, I love you

There's all kinds of songs that I heard growing up
But I never heard one that made the sun stop
All kinds of songs when I was growing up
But I never heard a song called 'I love you'
Love you

(Edge, a birthday solo)

And I love you
And I love you
And I love
A nd I love you
Put more Edge

And I love
And I...

And I love

We love you, that's for you

Happy b-day to the greatest and most innovative guitarist in the entire history of the entire universe.
(You can tell I admire him alot, can't you? :wink: )

Anyway back to the subject:
I (and many others as well) hope to hear your "spine-tingling" riffs in the future as well.
Just continue to do what you do and don't let anyone disturb you.

Just walk your own path as you've always done.
That's how you become something special and keep staying special for over 3 decades!
Wow time is flying is he 43 already?
Hehe... anyway I know you got a lot of creativity left to let out!
So let it come out!
We're all waiting :wink: !

Oh my gosh, I forgot!!!!!! :eek: I barely even remembered it was August! Where is time going???

Happy Birthday, Edge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :heart: :edge: :heart:
 
Happy Birthday Edge!! :applaud:

In the end of the day you're my favorite guitar player, no one is as original, interesting and amazing as you. Plus the fact that you have a great personality and is an awesome dad and husband doesn't hurt!!! We love ya! I know I do! :hug:
 
Happy Birthday to:
a) the most talented musician ever
b) the man with the most amazing, gorgeous eyes in the world
c) the only man whose voice is so beautiful it makes me cry
d) all of the above

And the correct answer is "D"!! :applaud:

Wishing you a very happy birthday, Edge. Hope your day is overflowing with love and happiness. You deserve every second of it! :heart: :hug:

And thanks for merging Emilie's and my posts - they are definitely complementary and should be together. :wink:

And I just wanted to add a few quotes that Edge (and hopefully all of us here) will find interesting and maybe inspiring.

On Edge:

The Edge is a really, really intense guy, he's got this incredibly high IQ, he's great at sorting out issues of worldly importance, it's just that he forgets the evryday things, like the chords of songs, where he is....and so on.
Bono (January 1983)

Edge doesn't know a lot of the chords he plays. He makes them up.
Bono (March 1987)

What lies behind us and what lies before us is of less importance to what lies WITHIN us.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Keep your face to the sunshine and you can't see the shadows.

Helen Keller

I hope everyone liked these quotes - I thought they were appropriate for this most BEAUTIFUL DAY! :edge: :hug:
