  • Beautiful song and video! Thanks from Hocking Hills, Ohio!

  • @rumezzo

    Thank you !! I think so!

  • @Thorsten000 Wilkommen! It's a lovely place with warm, welcoming people. 

  • @Thorsten000 I've lived here all my life and have a good bit of German in my blood. Hope you get to visit this state and enjoy everything it has to offer. The music, the view, the culture and its people :D

  • I always listen to this song when I'm homesick. I miss my hills and waterfalls. This song is so perfect.

  • @Spamoy12 I agree, that would be nice. As an alumni of the Mountaineer Marching Band, I can never hear this song enough!

  • @jkroach22 I heard this song for the first time today, beautiful song I'll be graduating from Marshall in Dec. I would be nice if they would sing this prior to or after every time Marshall-WVU play each other in football and basketball. Marshall plays all these songs that have nothing to do with WV, eventhough its a school in WV. no one sings country road in Huntington.lol

  • @vonironbutterfly

    A WVU Marching Band alumni? I just graduated from WVU as a member of the Marching Band. When we played this I always got choked up...still do.

  • Beautiful song!! Beautiful state!!
