Here are our birthday wishes for you Sarah! Besides some wishes, some members have shown their creative side! Please Sarah, check here to see what they have made for you!





My name is Andrei Ferreira, 26 years, I’m from Chile. I think your music is really the best, I’m fan since Surfacing. Since that time my dream is to see you in a live concert. [ Any concert in Sudamerica in the next world tour? :-) ]. Your music has influenced me a lot in my whole life over these past 10 years. I hope you have a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! and we keep delivering such beautiful music in the future.







Hey Sarah! My name is Caleb and I live in the US. First off, I hope you have a very special and happy birthday! Second, there's no possible word to desribe how your music has affected my life and helped me throughout my ten years of being a fan. I'm in the struggling years of being a gay teenage male and your music helps with that extremely. Sarah, you were my number one and the reason why my passion lies in music. You have inspired me to take on the challenges of playing instruments such as the piano and soon the guitar. Thank you so much! I love you Sarah and I hope you have a FANTASTIC and AMAZING BIRTHDAY!

P.S: WE NEED MORE LIVE ALBUMS!!! hehehehehhe







Hi Sarah my name is Lauren and I’m from the US. I’ve been a fan of yours since I was about 13, I’m 16 now, and though I’ve only been a fan for three years I’m sure there will be many more. You music has inspired me to become a musician myself and to pursue a career in Music Education so I can help people find music like you helped me. Thank you and have a spectacular birthday!







Sarah, hello my name is Anthony Paulino, 19 from South Florida. I hope you have a great birthday and enjoy 40! You’re halfway there! Just kidding. Anyways, thank you so much for what you have done musically, even though we've never met (sad face) you have completely touched my life and changed it for the better. But anyways, thanks so much and I hope your birthday is the best one you could EVER hope for. You deserve it!







Dear Sarah,
My name is Karine and I am from Montréal. I discovered your songs in 1997, when I was 15 years old, and I am still amazed by your voice and your talent. It’s simple; I listen to your music every day! I wish you a beautiful birthday, love and happiness for you and your family and a musical career as wonderful as it has been until today.







Hi Sarah, I’m Miguel Soto, 22, from NYC. I just want to wish you a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY. And briefly wanted to say that the first time I listened to your music, I was completely mesmerized and touched in a way that’s indescribable. Your music means much to me. Thank you eternally for that. You are truly one of a kind. Lots of love, peace and happiness to you and your family.

I want to thank you for all the beautiful music you've made and for sharing it with the rest of the world! It's a shame almost no one in Holland knows you here...But I'm so happy dat I discovered your music just a few years ago. I'm writing lyrics too, and ever since I heard Possession you have been my inspiration for my work! (I hope I get discovered once, haha) Well, again, have the most beautiful day because you deserve it! Love and peace, Ellen.







Hey Sarah! HAPPY B'DAY from Spain! Are you only 40? Man, you look older! I'll tell you just one word: bottox. Just kidding (obviously)! For me, you're not only a true artist, you're also a beautiful human being and that's the most important thing in the world. You're a role model to me! Keep enjoying making good music from your soul, and we will be there for you forever! Have a great day with your dear ones. Love & Peace, Sandra (a 23 years old young and beautiful girl (not yet a woman))








*~ when the stars have all gone out you'll still be burning so bright~*
Hey, I'm Shul and I'm from Israel. There are very few artists in the world that I truly admire. You're one of them... I fell in love with your music when someone who means the world to me used a line from 'Good Enough' when we talked, so I'll always remember you for it. I heard the song and that was it. Thank you so much for your amazing music, you are a true inspiration. You connect people in remarkable ways... Happy Birthday, hope you have a wonderful day and may all your dreams come true. I wish you and your family all the best...







Happy birthday Sarah, I'm Paul, a multi-media artist, born in London but now living in Amsterdam. I passed the big 4-0 eight years ago so that probably makes me on of your oldest fans. But fan I am! Your music has really touched my soul like no other. Your perfect musical voice, your brilliant songwriting, your poetic lyrics, I could go on and on - it's all so good. You create a calm that helps me get through the day. So many times when I've felt stress you've saved me. I love your caring and loving view on life. You are a strong and beautiful person and a perfect roll model to all of us. I hope you have a wonderful day and I wish you and your family great health and strength in the future.








Dear Sarah,
I just wanted to wish you a spectacular 40th Birthday!! To say that you are an inspiration to me would be a tremendous understatement. Your music fills me with hope and I'm continually awed by your voice and your talent. Thank you for sharing a part of yourself with your fans. I am forever grateful to have met you in Vancouver and realize that you are as funny and down-to-earth as you seem. Much love, happiness, joy and peace to you and your family.








Hi Sarah! I'm Eric and I'm from the US. You are a truly inspiring and wonderful person. Your music is beautiful, and I haven't been a fan for very long, but I am lucky to have discovered it. I hope you have a wonderful birthday with your friends and family and many more to come!







Happy birthday Sarah! I'm Tiffany from Los Angeles, and I have been a fan for many years. I just wanted to thank you for making the most influential and beautiful music. Your music has always been a great constant in even the most difficult of times. Wishing you and your family peace and happiness!







HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!!! My name is Danielle and I'm from Columbus, Ohio. I just wanted to say that I can't believe you're 40! You truly look fabulous!!  I hope you have a wonderful day, make sure you treat yourself to something wonderful! Your musical talent is amazing and has helped me get through some rough times. Even though I'm almost 21, I still have not told my parents or my brother that I'm a lesbian (everyone else knows) and your music has helped me out several times. Your voice and lyrics are uplifting and warm, thank you so much for everything!!!

Peace, love, and hugs!
Dannie








Dear Sarah,

I wish you a very happy Brithday, and hope you have a beautiful and fun time with your family and friends. I'm a fellow January child, having turned 26 two weeks ago and I guess like most people on this card I just wanted to thank you for the inspiration you have given me through your music. When I discovered your music in 2003, I was pretty much aimless in life and depressed because of a very unhappy relationship, but your music helped me through that dark time and inspired me to start following my dreams (I'm starting University soon) and find myself as a person with the help of my family and friends. So I wish you nothing but happiness this year and that this card from all of your admiers, the world over bring the same smile to your face that your music has to ours over the years!

Love & peace always,
Ben








Hi Sarah, I'm Winston Hom. I'm presenting to you the amateur drawing I sent to Nettwerk when I first became enamored with your music (see the gift page). Your personal perspectives, quietly mirrored in your songs and passionately charged in your charitable endeavors, has emboldened us all to grow and feel that the World can be a little warmer and kinder than it has been. We are all made just a little more extraordinary when you are with us. I wish you the grandest of birthday wishes as you continue to climb your tree of dreams.
