  • @ Jim, I think my two favorite places in the U.S. are Alaska and Sedona, AZ. I have your video on my favorites playlist. Maybe for your 2012 trip you can do a video to John Denvers other song about Alaska it is good too

  • @wqcharleston please see my other channel, JTYREY. I just did a video using two other of John Denver's Alaska songs. It is listed as John Denver's Alaska Songs. Having trouble with this channel on an upload. JIM

  • I still love this video and the song you used. Can't wait to go back.

    

  • @wqcharleston I know how you feel. We are working on our 2012 trip right now. Glad you enjoyed it.

  • @jtyrey Alaska was my home before it became a state. Went through the 64 earthquake. The Alaska experience is much more than fishing.

  • that must have been an awesome trip. Very nice pictures. Excellent song choice too. John Denver was an awesome musician.

  • love this song

  • @Sjukurkottur It's not regularly sung, but it is fairly well known. If you would like to hear some songs about Alaska that are more popular here, try looking up Hobo Jim Alaska. Jim's the Official State Balladeer (no joke), and sings at places like the Governer's Picnic in Fairbanks and Anchorage, at Alaska Day celebrations, and random places like Sockeye's. It's not uncommon to sing along with the radio or in small groups in the bush, so it is quite possible something like that could happen.

  • It was always my dads dream to go to Alaska. Then we moved there and he's STILL learning new stuff. Its been 3 years and we all LOVE it here! I've never seen the great nothern lights, though. Nor a whale.

  • I love this video

  • @Flickerfast I could understand such a nostalgia, coming myself from a northern country. But tell me, is this a known song among the Alaskan population? Is it regularly sung by the people? There is another video on youtube with him singing this song in a family party, from a movie called Higher ground, is that something that could happen when Alaskans come together?
