Hi Candice, lovely regards and all the best to your birthday and hope to see you soon on one of our castles in the south west of germany. Have a nice Party. LOL. Dieter
Dear Candice, Happy Birthday to You with lot of joy and happiness, thanks for the lovely music! See You this summer at Creuzburg (we can't wait....) !
Your fans from South Florida, George & Kathy

Dear Candice, for Your birthday I wish you very best health and furthermore a happy and full time at the side of your husband Ritchie. If you may still stand many years with him and all musicians successfully and with fun on the stage or in the recording studio. Your clear voice while singing enchants to us everybody over and over again and lets forget to us the everyday life. I am glad already very much about your tour through Germany and maybe about a renewed meeting after your show.
In the appendix I send you sometimes a topical photo of myself. There you see me in the garment as * Volker from the Weydengrund * and I bow to you to the birthday greeting. The 2nd photo has originated on the 13.07.1999 on castle Waldeck and should remind you of our 1st meeting.  Please, Ritchie greets from me and asks him, whether he my present (Lute) had received. He wanted to have them even then in the Bonfire in castle Abenberg. Only I had recognised too late.
So... now I wish you a nice party in the circle of the whole family and friends. With pleasure I would be also present.
On the next Sunday 10th of May I am a participant in the guitar world record. This world record with more than 1803 guitarists takes place live in the ZDF - television garden am present in Mainz and I.
I will put on my black hat and the white fenders with Ritchies signature to the song: "Welcome to Europe" of the group Gallery play. Maybe you can see in the TV.
The best greetings,Volker Wysk from Benneckenstein in the Harzmountains :0)
                                              


Hi Candice,
My Family and I would like to wish you a wonderful Happy Birthday and a healthy successful year. We would like to congratulate you both on your marriage, you both really complement each other with your beautiful voice and Ritchie's guitar playing. All we can say is "WOW".
We just purchased your DVD Castles & Dreams and your new CD BlackMore's Night Secret Voyage. We loved it, even my three year old son was dancing to your music. You and Ritchie make such beautiful music together and your band is just incredible.
We have Just one request! Would BlackMore's Night come to Canada (i.e, Toronto or Quebec) on tour in the future?
All the best and Happy Birthday Candice!
Stephen Helena and Anthony (your fan's from Toronto Canada)

                                             
Dear Candice
I want to send you all my best Birthday wishes,
I appreciate so much Blackmore Night dreaming music (I have the complete original discography, both CD and DVD). I was present in your show in Florence, Italy, few years ago, acclaiming you under the stage. I’m waiting your next coming in middle Italy, if possible… in the wonderful Tuscany land
Love and light for you, Ritchie, all minstrels and fans in the world
Mauro Pini, Livorno, Italy

Happy Birthday Candice,
We don't know each other, likely never will, but, you have a great voice and it's your birthday. Sooooooooo... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
I wish we had castles and good german beer in western massachussetts so you all would come up and play here. I haven't seen Ritchie play since 1991 at Radio City and I really miss seeing him on stage. I hope you all have a wonderful week.
Gary Smith South Deerfield

Good day :)
I would like to congratulate you on your birthday!
I hope one day you will visit the Netherlands. Because I absolutely adore you!:)
Thanks for making such good music. It makes me happy everytime I listen to it.
Bye, Nina

Happy birthday to one of the best singers around. I really enjoy Blackmore’s Night, You have renewed my faith that good music can still be made. As a matter of fact my whole band really enjoys Blackmore’s Night.

Dear Candice,
Just a quick "Happy Birthda-a-a-y!!!!!" to a bewitching songstress with a voice so beautiful it can make me cry out of sheer appreciation. You are truly an artist with a capitol "A"! May you live a life full of many birthday's to come!
My wife. my son and I wish all good things to you and Ritchie (and, of course, the whole band) for gifting us with the music we love to listen to and watch you perform. Blackmore's Night is an oasis in the current musical desert. We tell everyone we know about the band!
May we also offer belated "Congratulations" on the recent wedding! We wish you many, many years of love together.
And many, many years of creating the stunning music only you and Ritchie can write.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY  Ron and Ann (and Jonathan) Sanicola

But.........HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND BEST WISHES TO YOU !!!!!!
Best wishes from  Åse Carlsen

Hi Candice.
Happy birthday!!! You are very beautiful, has a beautiful voice and perfect pitch. Ritchie is a man of luck. My wife and I have the two dvds and cds all; all wonderful. Include in your next dvd the wonderful song "Ocean Gypsy". And also come to São Paulo (Brazil) to do some shows.
Greetings from brazilian fans!  Edson and Nadja.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
On my birthday, it always makes me feel good to hear people say nice things about me, especially when they're true. Heck, that's valid any day. So, on this, your birthday, I am taking the opportunity to tell you that not only do I listen to your music pretty much every day, and sing it, too (basically, I listen to Tom Waits the most, and you and Ritchie are next), but I love your hair. And any time you feel like coming to Los Angeles, you can all stay with me for free. (Cough, cough.)
Merry Part, Erica

To Candice Night:
Happy Birthday to a beautiful person inside and out.. I was fortunate enough to see Blackmore's Night at the Gramercy Theatre last year and as I wrote for Ritchie's birthday wishes, I am still smiling from that show. Thank you for the beautiful music.
Dr. Andrew G. Oliphant

Candace,

Dear Candice,
A Big Happy Birthday to you from a longtime fan once from Breckenridge, Colorado now living on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina in the United States. I am glad you and Ritchie and your group are working on a new collection of musical enchantment. I have enjoyed your music so much and it always brings a smile to me. I Hope Your Day is a special one for you!
Thanks for giving the world so many good tunes,

Dear Candice:
First of course a very happy birthday wish to you. Enjoy your day and we wish you many more to come. We also congratulate you on your recent wedding. Kaye and I are getting married on July 11th and are close to finalizing the last few details. Your music has been an important part of our romance. On our second date I had her play “all because of you” she became an instant fan of Blackmore’s Night. Since music is so important to both of us much thought has gone into the music for the wedding. The wedding march was first going to be “Durch Den Wald Zum Bach Haus” till we pick up Beyond The Sunset it will now be “God Save The Keg”. An odd title for a wedding march but it is such a perfect arrangement to walk down the isle to. The other song will still play as guests are seated. After the ceremony and I kiss the bride we will exit to “All Because of You”. Our first dance will be to Van Morrison’s Someone Like You.
We caught you show last year in Raleigh, NC. This was her first time seeing Ritchie, I have been a fan of Ritchie for a very long time. We truly loved it, I so enjoy seeing and hearing this side of Ritchie’s playing. To go into detail of how his music has impacted my life would take forever. My son Ian will be the best man at our wedding, Ian is named after Ian Gillan and Paice. As I said I could go on for a long time about all the music and phases of Ritchie Blackmore, but today is your day. So I will close with another birthday wish to you. Raise your glass and toast the days gone by and those to come. Embrace each day and enjoy the love you have found. May you continue to fill the world with music for many years to come, and thank you for what your music has already done for us.  Happy Birthday Candice  Paul and Kaye

Just a quick note to wish you a wonderful birthday and all the very best to you. I have just recently been made aware of Blackmore's Night by virtue of wondering what Ritchie was doing these days and was so pleasantly suprised to find your web site and your music. I love it!! Candice, once again Happy Birthday to you and many more to come.  Sincerely, Jeff Claerhout
P.S. I wish you all could play at the Ren fest in our area of Kansas City which is actually held in Bonner Springs, Ks.

My Best Wishes to you on your Birthday!
I accidentally found your music a couple of years ago when looking for some of Ritchie's old music, Rainbow was one of my favorite groups, especially "Run With the Wolf".But I am now a confirmed Blackmore's Night fan and wish I could get overseas to see you all live, for now I just have to settle for the DVDs.
If you ever get to the States, would love to have you visit Dallas (I live 2 hrs. south)! Our local Renaissance Faire is going on just south of Dallas in Waxahachie, maybe you can plan to play there sometime??
Anyway, Best Wishes and hope Ritchie treats you Special!

Dear Candice,
at this sunny spring day, we'd like to say Happy Birthday to You, and to wish you everything that you'd like to wish to yourself, cause as you know "whishes can come true, if you wish with all your might", and at a light birthday day they come true in double!
Today we raise our glasses for your health, happiness, light & joy!!! And we wish your life will be as sweet as was the cake we'd made for you!!! (Pity that you can't taste it :( ) Many Greetings, Faithfully Yours, Russian Fan Club

Happy Birthday sweet lady !!!! God bless you!!!

Hi Candice, my name is Jeff and I am a longtime Blackmore's Night fan. I had the privilege of seeing the band perform at the House of Blues in Chicago on Oct 18th, 2007. By all accounts, that show has been ranked among your finest.
I have been a Chicago Street Team member for the past several years and will continue to support the band in any way possible. Please know that Dorrine Robertshaw ( our Chicago Street Team Coordinator ) has done a wonderful job of keeping the team informed with regard to all relative Blackmore's Night news. I am looking forward to seeing the band perform again upon your return to the Chicago area.  I would like to wish you a very Happy Birthday !  Sincerely, Jeff

Dear Candice,
we both want to wish you a happy birthday. May the sun shine especially for you on your special day, may it's rays bring warmth for you. We are both looking forward to seeing you again this summer.
Last weekend we went to see the Geyers, to film their show for you and your husband.
I will just have to transfer it to my computer and then burn a DVD. Unfortunately they played in a "Biergarten", so there are people walking in front of the stage most of the time. Hope it will still be worth watching and listening to.Love, Rainer and Carolina

Lovely Candice: Birthday Wishes, Friend and Love to You.
Send to me Yrs. and a BlackmoresNight' coloroful Cd. Kisses & a pull of ears.

Dear Candice,
I would like to wish you a very Happy Birthday!!!!! My name is Eileen.  I have written a few times and you wrote back to me on your "between us" section and posted one of my letters in your "guestbook".  I'm the person who asked about the Westbury Manor where my husband and I were married 20 years ago this year.  Wow, where did those 20 years go.  Savor each moment, they go by so quickly!!  I would like to send you a birthday gift because you give me a gift each and everyday, YOUR MUSIC.  It brings me joy, peace and happiness.  I am one of those people who feels things very deeply.  Always felt a little different than everyone else.  I connect with you through your music and feel like I have a good friend even though I don't know you personally.  You are from my home (Long Island) and we seem to care about the same things.  I love to look at your photographs in your "favorites" section because it looks like some of those pictures are of the LI sound.  We lived in Oyster Bay and my husband worked in Huntington.  We used to go to the shore and watch the sunset and I miss that. So thanks for those pictures.  Have a wonderful birthday.  Hope to see you in the Chicago area this year and I hope to be able to come to the Holiday party this year (I am a street team member since Dec. 08). If you accept gifts do I just send it to Carol's business address, that's were I was going to send it. Thank you for your beautiful voice and all the wonderful music you and Ritchie create.  Have a great birthday!!!
Eileen

Dear Candice,
Just writing to say happy birthday to you - I hope you have a wonderful time!!
I've been wanting to write to you for a long time and now I thought it was a great chance! I admire you and your music ever so much and think that you are very inspirational! I too adore Mother Nature and believe that we can learn very much from her...I just wish that some people would care for her more - I find it very sad seeing what they do to her. However, I know that one day we can overcome all our differences and become one with each other - then there will be no more war or killing or hunger or any problems between us on this earth...I want to do all I can to bring about this day!
From the first time I heard Blackmore's Night, you reminded me of peace and harmony and innocence and all things magical...What you perform and sing about is very very beautiful and I thank you so much for doing this! I love listening to your music! It makes me feel very safe and happy and if I am sad, it can cheer me up!
So, once again, I hope you have a great birthday and thankyou - you are such a beautiful person on the inside and out!
Lots of love, peace and thoughts...I wish you hope and happiness!
Katie, 13 from the Isle of Wight, England!


Dear Candice,

Happy Birthday Candice from Bel Air, MD, USA.
(About 1 hour from the restaurant you mention on the BN website --Bube's Brewery in Mt Joy, PA)
Been a Ritchie fan since the late 70's and I must say the music you all create now has touched me the most.
Don't know what else to say but thanks for the many years of awesome music from BN; your voice is awesome.
Anyway instead of a generic birthday oriented theme I thought I would send you a picture of my three dogs.
Form left to right---Noodles, Shortie and Dexter. They particularly like the live 7+ min version of "All For One."
Enjoy your birthday.

Dear Candice,
I just wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday!!
I've been a fan of Blackmore's Night since I heard the title track of 'Shadow of the Moon' playing in a New Age shop I was visiting in Shrewsbury. I love your work & the unique way you combine medieval & modern instruments & music in it. You put so much energy & passion into your work & you obviously love what you are doing.

I live in a 400+year old farm house in rural Wales & I was lucky enough to get tickets to see your concert at York opera house a couple of years ago. I was blown away by the warm & friendly atmosphere at the concert. I'd arrived feeling very self conscious since I had dressed in medieval-style clothes & wondered if I would be the only one so dressed & thus feel a total idiot. Well, I needn't have worried! As you know, an awful lot of your fans dress up for your performances. The audience seemed to range from 10 to 70 years. There are few rock venues where you know your child will be welcomed & safe! From your website it is also obvious how much you really care about your fans which is wonderful & I think quite unique. I have admired Ritchies' guitar playing for many years & it was wonderful to be able to hear him live.

I believe that you both shoot Longbow-so do I. What a wonderful sport & great fun!
Congratulations also to you & Ritchie on your recent marriage. The photos on the internet are beautiful! May you have many happy years together.
Have a wonderful day.
Love & Blessings,

You are a light and lovely person giving music to us all. May the music continue, so we can listen forever.

Happy Birthday, Candice! I hope your first birthday spent with Ritchie as your husband is special. I don't know if you will actually read this or not, but my sincerest well- wishes go with you anyway. You are one of my favorite singers, and I aspire to sing as well as you do one day. I am such a huge fan; I am only a teenage girl but my dad raised me on Ritchie. His music is amazing. I love Rainbow and Deep Purple so much as well. I would really love to see Blackmore's Night live. PLEASE come to the United States sometime. I assure you I will be there in the front row, dressed up and ready to sing all your songs. =) Anyway, what i really want to say is happy birthday and God bless you all. I await your new music earnestly!

Love, Heidi Messiha (Southern California)


Happy birthday Candice, I've been a fan of the band since its inception hope to see you for the first time somewhere in the southern US soon, thanks for the wonderful music, have a joyful Birthday and say hello to Ritchie. Sincerely Carl Moratto LC TX


Dear Candice,

I met you at the Southern Connecticut Renaissance Festival a few years ago. I play guitar for the band Blackjacks N Blarney and I gave you a CD. I am not especially proud of it but I thought you may remember me because I Said, "If you ever need a low energy opening act, we're your band." I remembered that you laughed.
Aside from that, I wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday and thank you for the music and the words that you so beautifully perform.
Again, Happy Birthday.
The Angels rejoiced the day you were born.
Sincerely,
Dave Sterenchock

Well...It seems that you and Richie are close to b-days. A lady friend from Calif. told me about your group and showed me a picture/article/interview of you and then I listened to your music on-line and I AM IMPRESSED!! I can see how your group of minstrals made it to the bigtime; I congratted Richie on his last b-day and I told him that your group is like ABBA from the middle ages. It's a pleasure listening to you. You have a beautiful voice. Long live and prosper. I live 50 miles south of Salt Lake City, Utah


Candice!
Very, Very Happy Birthday To You!!!
You Are The Most Beautiful Woman On The World!!
Love
