Cliff Richard is celebrating his 86th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer Cliff Richard (Mistletoe and Wine, We Don't Talk Anymore, Devil Woman, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 86th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Richard, a cultural icon

Born Harry Rodger Webb in Lucknow on October 14, 1940, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in British history. Richard's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Cliff hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Cliff Richard as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 86.

Happy Birthday, Cliff, you're the best!
