John was so shy and so down to earth putting every else before his self. Im grateful I got to see him several times and had an amazing conversation along with dinner on the Pacific Trail. and in Aspen as well in LA when he played. at the Greek Theater back in early 80s. RIP John Denver. One love

Wow, if there's anything you would be able, willing to divulge about your conversation with him, I would absolutely be grateful, and love to hear it. Few celebrities were as intriguing as John Denver to me. Men are typically not real complicated, this guy was, or at least seemed to be. Absolutely loved him. It's one thing to hear an interview with a celebrity, when they typically are just saying what they want people to hear to maintain their image, all together different to have a private conversation.

The world today would have made John quite sad, but man his songs are much needed.

How come you wasted your time coming here then?😂

Such a beautiful song. This was played at both my brothers and my dad's funerals. Can't hear this without shedding a tear

John Denver changed my life. I cannot say that about anyone else. One day I was this Deep South country boy without a plan, then I heard Rocky Mountain High. I headed for Colorado as fast as I could. I eventually settled down, went back to university - first CSU in Fort Collins and then on to graduate at CU in Boulder. Work took me away from Colorado. That was how it had to be. But John Denver and his music pointed a young guy with no direction in at least that direction and "I have to say it now , It's been a good life all in all, it's really fine to have (had) a chance to hang around." My wife and I are about to retire and "hang around" a bit more in my second, spiritual home - not too far from Aspen. Thanks John.

Back in 69, he came to my college as part of a voter’s registration program. Country roads had just become a big hit. He was so kind. He came and talked to all of us. I still have his LPs but I no longer have a record player.

What part of the world do you walk in?

John Denver was 53 years old, when he died on October 12, 1997 at the time!!!

John symbolizes the golden period of North American society. His songs, music reflects all the good time that are long past. One of the greatest singers all time humankind gifted with.

I have rediscovered the music of John Denver after such a long time since my young days. His music touches my soul and this jewel so precious touches my memories. Thank you my dear unknown friend. RIP you wonderful human being

at 66, almost 67, there's a lot of life, love, relationships... time alone, time in Nature alone and with a circle of friends and lovers I recall and live again with vivid memories... this song means more each year as I find myself getting older...

So am I.

No other musician has ever connected to me like John Denver. He just connects! Love this guy. If ever there was a musician I would have loved to meet, Yes, John Denver. He cuts deep into the soul but being famous took its toll. ya can't get fame and tranquility and a strong marriage. Just can't. God designed it so 2 people would be together most of their waking hours. But I lve his music and meaning and always have. People who leave a mark upon you in life are the ones you know are the real deal. People who live close to your heart and touch you like John has done must be the true parts of life. Some live in the outer circle of my heart and some live in the inner circle. John has always lived in my inner circle. What can I say, he just clicks with me. Love to have met him.

Always makes me cry. Beautiful song, reminds me of simpler times

He sacrificed his family to help encourage the world 🌎...he missed out on the daily life of his own family & simple pleasures he truely loved soo much. ❤ I just think 🤔 people like him should do recordings close to home on their own time. Still their gifts 🎁 can reach the 🌎. They can Do local things & people go to them & only do TV specials that their own family go to. So Family remains first ! ❤ I never went to a concert of his & never needed to > and he effected my life for the good just the same. All I needed were Records / Dvds/ cds. TV special 1x yrly. ❤ to his kids & other family.

Someone suggested me this song. Now It's just me and the song! She's Nowhere! I can't dislike the things related to her, everything i do She's everywhere. I just wanted to ask what about our dreams and all the memories we share,but couldn’t!

The legendary song writer singer

This song always makes me think of my older brother who died way too young at age 37 from alcoholism, and always shreds me because of it. It sings of appreciating the simple things in life, which he did. It talks of future plans, which he never got. We all just kept waiting and hoping for him to pull out of his alcoholic mess, to finally get on with realizing the unbelievable potential his life had, the incredible talent God blessed him with, but it wasn't to be.

Thanks for posting this poem, prayers and promises👋🎶

So many great songs and simple truths. ... *Johnny ye left us too soon*. rest in peace, weary warrior. I believe you loved the earth and people, ... but fame and broken relationships took their toll. no doubt about it.

I think this is one of my favorites ❤. I have the entire collection of his.

Such a for real thing..everyone’s words straight out of the heart

It was compulsory to play his songs during my busking days till nOw.

How sweet & important it is to care. About yourself im not a leftover no . God didnt make me a leftover. Not in His image- im not. Love transforms if when we allow it. I hope Johnny knows I genuinely miss him- pray I can be as genuine kind courageous- ask sweet Jesus to do His Will to talking together everyday. No sorrow but braver- obediance- discern in Hope Faith Love- LIGHT in LIFE! Keep no fear in dark theres only LIGHT in good gentler God.

In the movie about his life, there is a girl who ( I believe told Annie while accidentally coming across her in an elevator), that she was just about to kill herself one day, when she just happened to hear this song on the radio. The song changed her life around and gave her hope. And averted the suicide.
