I first heard this song as part of a Power Stone type Flash game on Newgrounds some years ago. Amazing how one finds lifetime music in the most random places.
spike slawson is not the lead singer of lagwagon, he's in a band called swingin utters, Joey cape the gimmes gimmes guitarist is the lead singer of lagwagon.
@gojagsgo321 it was Me First's first single, "Denver" which had this song and "Leaving on a Jet Plane". Do your research before making yourself look stupid on the internet, brostopholese
The relevance is West mother fucking Virginia you stupid fuck if you dont know the meaning or what the song is about then you just go fuck off an die because believe it or not United States West Virginia IS A FUCKING STATE!!!!!!!
I love this cover! My dad is a huge John Denver fan, so I already knew this song just from him listening to it constantly when I was a kid. He loves this cover too, he thinks it really funny. :D

Nice video... WTF Piece of SHIT!!! At least fucking try... the sound quality sucks a llamas balls. Ohh and I want to see a god damn fucking pink logo the whole time. What a fucking mockery of the youtube concept.
It is obvious you have no idea where I was going with my comment. The song is great. MF&TGGs are amazing. The part that sucked is the video. I would think someone posting a video on YouTube would at least try. Maybe they could put some pictures of the band or something. If i just wanted to hear the song I would listen to the album. But, I am watching a video. I wanted to see a video, not a stupid logo for almost two and a half minutes. So, Ma'am, I am sorry I made you cry. It won't happen again.
Wow, your life must really suck if you're so wound up that you'd flip out like that, at something like this. You need to get laid, drunk, or in a fight. Something.
totally agree, but almost forgivable cuz he said "sucks llamas balls" haha. lol. never heard that b4. Maybe Rhob's so pent up he doesn't realize some people us youtube to hear something first b4 they go buy the album, duh. This version really does rule.
Stan, you are saying you would rather listen to a shitty recording of a song while watching a pink screen, than listen to a quality recording, and watching a video where the person actualy tried. People today are just lazy and quality doesn't mean shit to them anymore. There are many versions of this song on Youtube, and most of them are better sounding than this. And in some of the videos, the person actualy tried posting a video rather than some logo for 2 and a half minutes.
Instead of bitching about this video/version like the butthurt faggot you are, and declare others to be lazy, maybe you should make your own video and post it!! Either that or go sit in a dark room and scratch your arms up with a broken pencil sharpener so you look all tough and hardcore. Yeah!
some people are more interested in the music than in some stupid naruto/dragonballZ montage yeah? id rather just the song than some random bullshit that just takes up RAM and bandwidth.
I'm a hiphop head.. Not sure I've ever had as much fun as I did at these guys concert.. they were so blown up by stupid punk music even the oldschool rancid concerts looked tame to this. Thanks gramps.
Who gives two thirds of a shit? Just live your life the way you want to, and don't let anyone tell you what to do/bring you down. Accepting the fact that not everyone sees the world through your eyes definitely helps too... just my opinion.
Can i just say that if you ever broaden your mind to listen to a gimme gimme's album, such as "Ruin Jonny's Bar Mitzvah" you will check them saying that they are the best cover band in the world! They are not slating anyone, and as a john denver fan myself, i love this. So shush, have some respect!
yaaaaaaa707, why even watch it, since you should have known it was a cover before it started? and, write your own songs?! Ever heard of NOFX, Foo Fighters, Lagwagon, Bad Religion, Swingin' Utters? You may not like punk, but all the members of the gimmes come from those very successful bands. so, i think they've done their share of writing their own songs.
you probably can cuz ur such a faggot. u probably have a boyfriend that forces you to practice on yourself so you can get better at it so that when you do it to him, he will love it. so just go practice for him ok?
