He will forever be missed by me. I started listening to him in 75 and never could hear enough. Awesome God gifted singer. This world will never be the same without him. God Bless his family and thankyou for sharing him with us.
good song about Colorado i was born here and raised here just think 15 years ago i would go six miles outta town and be in the middle of no were now when i drive to the same place its full of summer homes by a bunch of rich douche bags who are only 3 months of the year
without question JD's greatest song, when I visited Denver and my friend drove me to the airport I made him play this as a soundtrack with the mountains in the background
LOVE JOHN DENVER SOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 14 years old nd have listined to it since i wuz a babii!!! I'll love youu forever John Denver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@PanicxHelloKitty16 No actually, John Aquired A need for all spaces, and things wild. This led him on the TRUE path of the human spirit. It led him to meet Famed explorers and conservationists like the late, legendary Jauque Yves Cousteau! Cousteau was taken with John's simple country sincerity and took him for A sea voyage which is where we got the song Calypso! sadly he was killed while flying an experimental high performance aircraft off the coast of Monterey, California.
I was blessed to see him in concert right next to the stage when this song came out...Beautiful. John you left behind a legacy in your music. RIP and soar with the angels !!!
Classic Blue! Windows Movie Maker...but I'm a Builder of that house with real hardwood floors and a fireplace of a natural surround...but to serve my guests with an open heart and with a cathedral ceiling!..
seehound619 country is not bull crap counry is the best and its thebest today if you ca not say anything nice keep your mouth shut if you do not like you can listen to gay rap music that everyone in my school likes . i am a country fan .
i just came home from a roadtrip through colorado, wyoming. montana, idaho, utah, arizona, nevada & california! And colorado, wyoming & utah were the best!
look, I was a teenager when John was huge, it wasn't cool to admit to liking him in 1977, but you know what, this dude was one of the greatest singers/entertainers in US history...bless him, his songs still grab me as they did 35 years ago...Listen to Rocky Mountain High, Country Roads & Sunshine on my Shoulder and notice how much you feel better...and I am into Metallica, Black Sabbath, Queen & Led Zeppelin...JOHN DENVER WAS AMAZING!!!
"He knew he would't be a poor man if he say an eagle fly", Amen John! Today is my birthday...I'm 49...I chose to spend my day listening to John's music...it will be non stop for maybe even 2 days. My memories that I made while listening to his music when visiting Colorado & the Rocky's..John tied them together..I knew he would & so today...I pay Him Homage for righting the world & my world. Today in my memories I walking along a hidden lake, an eagle is flying above, the smell of pine is clear
He didn't die in the mountains, he died when he was reaching for the fuel selector in his 'long EZ', which was located behind the left side of his head. He accidentally applied rudder, and the plane went into a steep turn to the left, and he crashed. He was only 500 feet in the air after a takeoff. He crashed 150 yards from shore. Good movie!
The quote "you can’t cheat the Mountains" was from Jeremiah Johnson not Final Destination. I was linking this song with the foolishness of some people voyaging into the mountains without the knowledge to survive. No offense to Denver's untimely death, of course.
Man, I get so sick of the Nazis on Youtube deleting comments!
@MrUKAtheist After watching "Final Destination", I get the creeps when I hear the lyrics "I've seen it raining fire in the sky"... especially when I'm going to board an airplane.
`Now this is REAL country.... not like this fake, empty, pretty face bullshit country of today......this is what its all about......they dont make em like this anymore.
@hb1014 i dont myself much with a title or "genre" of music....... call it what u like I suppose.... its still better than 90% of anything being made today.
@hb1014 u r much more generous than I would be...... I dont see much "folk" music today that is "alright"...... nice pic on your profile page by the way...... gorgeous.... who is that? lol
@seehound619 im completly with you man i dont like any of this shit that is what is today your right its never like this anymore wish there was away to bring back the old america back just wish there was a way
@themusicisyou I have been to pretty much every state in the US....and let me tell you.... Denver is BEAUTIFUL..... there is a place where the freeway goes through the mountain in a tunnel.... I think its just outside of Denver...... the river flows right along the road..... its paradise.
Colorado's anthem!
