  • Nigger dnt kno tru music

  • Haha love the black guy at 1:34 who isn't clapping while everyone else around him is.

  • @PonchMasterFlexx i noticed that too.. lol gtfoh!

  • I miss him...

  • Fabulous artist, singer and songwriter - John Denver will live on forever...

  • I mean I live in Oregon but this is such a sweet song :)

  • Even better than his musicianship is his uncanny ability to make a room full of white people clap in time.

  • What a poet, what a musician, what an outstanding artist he was! His songs are all like clear whater, streaming through beautiful valleys and meadows towards the sea. (sorry for my english i'm from austria, like Arnold). There was and is nobody like him. Thank you, John, for your music and thank's dear God for John! Vaya con dios John Denver!

  • the tour guide blasted this song during our journey to Great Ocean Road in australia and got us singing along!

  • sometimes when people aren't looking I lie down on the floor and act like I'm a carrot

  • this is real music

  • how the FUCK can you DISLIKE this?

  • A song that truly reflects the great American Society and its lovely country.

  • @Granade24 ...that it stole from the Native Americans

  • rest in peace john denver and chris mccandless

  • Love it!

  • PURE SONG !!!  live to ride !!!

  • not as good a s he use to be but still good.

  • Very nice song !!!

  • I hate country like hell fire, but godamn I love this song

  • He is the greatest

  • He is the greatest

  • Well, I live in Brasil, in Latin America, we speak Portugueses, no Spanish, far from North Hemesfere. We LOVE travel around the world, we LOVE to know differents cultures around the world and we respect all of ways of life, songs ... Well, I don't understand your main worry, but I promise that I'll see your vídeo. I really desire to be good or more like this vídeo. Good Luck, my friend.

  • I LOVE this song. He was fantastic. I'M from Brasil and always liked his songs. I miss him...

  • @BTCozer If you are from Brazil, first of all - why do you live so far away? Second - you must not have heard the bad things about John Denver like how he was a litter bug and how he made a lot of noise when eating soup. Either way, my band's new "Country Roads" video will probably set you straight on a few things. It's the REAL story.

  • oh my gawd... he made loud noises when eating soup... BURN THE WITCH. no i'm just kidding if that's the only thing you have on John Denver then don't leave a comment at all

  • @fartinghamster This person is obviously just jealous of the fact that my band's version of this song is even better than the original. Hey "gassy-rat", my advice is you stop leaving comments on youtube and use that time to practice. Then maybe some day you'll be able to play as good as we do.

  • @number1covers Lol! ;)

  • It's really sad, but it reminds me of Suday mornings as my Dad used to play his album every Sunday morning, and and so it fills me with dread every time I hear it... as I associate it with having to have a bath (yuk!) and having to go to school the next day. Even though I'm now 40, I still get filled with dread when I hear it (although I DO bathe more now I'm pleased to say, LOL). Shame as it is a great song. If I see any old TV shows that used to be on Sundays, I get the same nasty feeling. :)

  • my favorite country song of all time.

  • no sound :(

  • @Janiesue08 false

    

  • Awesome song with great memories. Peace always...

  • Sou o único brasileiro que gosta desta musica ?

  • I'm in love with Steve Katz in the video responses :)) lol

  • R.I.P to u John Denver

  • How about we all stop whining like little kids and REJOICE IN THE FACT THAT WVU JUST SET A NEW RECORD! LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS!

  • @SweetBabyJessi412 What a sweet game it was! Go NEERS!

  • It's good if John Denver is still alive to sing more country song.

  • so sweet !

  • Great.

    Thanks.

  • so beautiful.

  • I my contry there was documetary movie about John Denver on national TV canal , since than this song is stuck in my head ...

    Greetings from Macedonia !

  • your in heaven purple when you talk like that

  • This is what I hope concerts are like in heaven....but til I get there..YouTube will have to do.....who am I kiddin'?..I ain't going anywhere near heaven...but.....I don't care...I got YouTube for at least the next hour...I hope.

  • @Lorten1986 Nice! Picking on a kid! What's interesting is you only found one mistake. Which suggests you, too, don't know how to spell guitar. And, since this is grammar class, didn't is a contraction of did not. (grade 2) I believe. If you're younger than 18, sorry. If you are over 18, grow up!

  • this is awesome! wish John was still with us :-(

  • Take me home United Road

    To the place... that I belonggg

    Tooo Old Trafford... To see United

    Takee me Home United Road

  • @RobertRobby05 The past tense of "think" is "thought", not "thinked"

  • since when did the crocodile hunter play guitar?

  • evergreen song!

  • peter griffin is the best.

  • Cuando escuchás a John Denver (cuya muerte es una gran pérdida), te conecta con esas raices rurales de los pueblos, me gusta mucho escuchar la música autóctona de cada rincón del planeta, pues al ser una expresión sincera de la visión de los pueblos te permite conectarte con cada país, siempre que me es posible trato de conocer pueblos a través de su música. Esta canción del John Denver ilustra muy bien mi punto de vista.

  • I've never been in West Virginia, but if it's like John says then it's a Paradise! :)

  • @Olebrucanism looool its full of inbred mountain men

  • I'm 3 and I just took my wife, who is 14 years old to see John Denver who is 53! We had a cab driver who was 22 and just learned this song on the guitar with his 7 year old father singing the lead!

  • @ScienceFictionHairdo you're retarded dude.

  • I'm 17 from indonesia, and I love all John Denver's greatest hits! wonder i could replace him as a famous country singer haha \m/

  • At my mom's funeral we had a slideshow of pictures of her and its so very hard to hear the words I should have been home yesterday . Because I did not spend enough time with her and I miss her so very much . Ya see she was a miners daughter from Welch West Virginia .Thank you John Denver for the wonderful music you made in your life on this earth .

  • Timeless, John Denver was such a great writer and performer, he is missed.

  • Great

  • @scyferx16 lmfao SO true.

  • @scyferx16 More like the guy at 0:47 ! :P

  • @scyferx16  LMFAO

  • @scyferx16 stupid comment dude

  • @scyferx16 a littel bit racist, you doesn't think so?

  • @scyferx16 wow way to be a racist punk...sadder still that you got this many likes for it. This is 2012 people. Not all black people listen to rap but apparently all those that like country are still racist...

  • This is on of my favorite country song! I love it!

  • Let's keep John Denver's memory alive and continue to practice his mission of keeping Mother Earth healthy now and for the future. That is the spirit of MyAniMovies videos which aim to spread the message of peaceful coexistence with animals and respect for their wilderness home...

  • Thumbs Up If You Are From West Virginia

  • I'm origanly from pa but I moved here every time I hear this song I think of my old home...

  • There is no other state I would want to live and be buried in, ( maybe Tenn.) It is a true sorrow that such a talented voice was taken at such a young age. It seems that way with all our great musicians!

    * Almost Heaven, West Makaha,

    young and old among them,

    feel the ocean breeze.

    Country road, take me home,

    to the place I belong,

    West Makaha, Mount Ka'ala.

    Oh, take me home, oh, country road.

  • RIP JOHN DENVER YOU WILL BE MISS!

  • I've been to WV. simply beautiful! even more so than NC. Regardless, this is an amazing song. This isn't country, this is good old american folk. John Denver is a legend, and will be so for a long time. Why do we lose the best?!

  • 1:32 white people.

  • Beautiful maple guitar!!!

  • Everyone is so quick to judge West Virginia, and here we have the most down to earth, genuine people you could ever meet. I know we may not be the biggest, or most exciting state but I'm so damn proud to be from West Virginia. There is no where else I'd rather live. From our beauty to our good old country folks it couldn't get any better. I'll be a mountaineer till the day I die.

  • @Eriemixo Same here West Virginia is great! It has beautiful landscapes and the people are really friendly and will do any thing to help another person out!!!

  • @Eriemixo i dont live in WV. but my friend does i visit her house once a month for 3days...and its so peaceful! I live in ohio in a small rundown town/village. and its hardly ever peaceful, not 2 mention we dont have the cleanest air but i have lived in ohio my whole life and i still am but i love visiting my friends house..sittin out on her porch at dusk breathin in the country air...and i feel so at peace! West Virgina...is a great place! I would NEVER Judge it!!! Imma country girl/cityslicker

  • @Eriemixo I was an over the road truck driver for 35 yrs. YOU are correct. West Virginia was as closer to heaven as I will ever get. Naturally nice people.
