@TheBangersMash great music is in every time period. I am not saying that Caty Perry or Rap music is great but I am saying that it may not be Olivia Nawton John singing it but it still has beauty in it.
@BigNick157 the blue ridge mountains are in South Carolina too. It's wonderful. I was 10 month's in SC. Believe me America is great and the American's are pretty nice.
This melody popped in my head 6am for God only knows what reason and I searched it down. I don't listen to country and I don't even know how I know of this song but this IS in fact the song. LOL My brain is broken...

Something is missing in this version, I think John Denver Sang it with more passion and soul, his version made me shiver (no homo).... and it made me think of home..... no west v-giny.
good to be human just because of ONJ (and Jim Morrison, Robert Smith, Johnny Cash, Ritchie Valens, Mark Lanegan, Jello Biafra, Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel, Eddie Vedder, Layne Staley, Kurt, Amy, Dimebag, Ronnie JD, AND ALL THE DIAMONDS I FORGOT!!)
@old65rocker After some research, it seems that one or two of the Ladybirds did get their start as Vernons Girls, who broke up in '64. They supposedly sang backing vocals on Jimi Hendrix's "Hey Joe." One of the Vernons Girls is a mother to Sam Brown, who co-wrote "The Sun Will Shine Again" with Jon Lord for Frida Lyngstad. Another one of the Vernons Girls is a mother to Kim Wilde.
@old65rocker I don't know them by that name, but I do recognize them as being Benny Hill's backing singers, known during his series as "The Ladybirds."
OMG! The Ladybirds (the 3 girls on the left) are singing backing vocals with her on this clip! They became famous, if, for nothing else, for being Benny Hill's backing group on his show. Wow! The girl sings it like she lives here in West Virginia with me.
To me with the name, song, and what Olivia should be defined is such beutiful irony. Love the song, though. Prefer the John Denver original, but still love this just as much
Great song by a wonderful singer. I have noticed something. Every time I hear either Olivia or John Denver sing this, the phrase in the middle sure sounds like "I hear her voice in the morning HOW she calls me .... " But both here and elsewhere the listed lyrics are " ..... in the morning hour she calls me ..." Can anyone defitively say that "morning hour" is correct? Just curious.
an honest and beautiful individual... one of the worlds Angels... it's sad how her life has panned out, but she is genuine and a person like this only comes along occasionally.
Proof that you don't need to necessarily write a song to perform it well. The way she sings, with all the emotion she puts into it, you'd think she was born and bred in West Virginia (minus the accent, of course ;)
I always found Olivia to be a mesmerizing performer that few have matched. There's an unearthly quality to the combination of her voice, beauty, and presence.
Wow I never knew she covered this song! Beautiful. I forget that she got her start singing country, them crossed over to pop. This is very hard to do but Olivia pulled it off!
@indogitrust She still sings. In fact, she released an album just last year called Grace and Gratitude Renewed, which appended songs to her Grace and Gratitude album from 2006.
very nice performance from the beginning of her career...I've always liked her and my admiration for her talent continues to grow. She has incredible talent and presence and I admire her very much as a person.
I love this song

The original 2" master tape was degaussed (wiped) by the BBC. This exists only as a black & white kinescope, the original broadcast was in colour.
Mis-management at the BBC through the '60s and '70s resulted in 95% of 1960s TOTP being wiped and 70% of the 1970-1975 archive being wiped.
Hence the BBC are the laughing stock of broadcasters in Europe.
