On this day in 1974, a beautiful baby boy was born. He was named Janne Johannes Puurtinen.

Little did his parents know that a day would come where their adorable, darling, sweetheart of a son would become 'Emerson Burton', the legendary, amazing, talented & beautiful keyboardist for the extraordinary band, HIM. Yes, my friends, although Burton may be in the shadows on stage, he is still a very special asset to the band. AND! He is adored, cherished &
absolutely loved by so many!!!

Thank you, Burton, for all that you do, all the sacrafices you make for your fans. Your kind heart & the melodies you give us, touch our very souls & we could never, ever thank you enough for what you do. Words cannot describe just how much we adore & cherish you!!!

May you have many smiles to wear upon your heart & may your soul be filled with extra warmth on your special day. I wish for you to be showered with love from all those you hold near & dear. And may the magic that is yours for today bestow many blessings upon you for now & forever.
