    What a talented man John was. When he died in the plane crash, the world lost not lost not only an singer and entertainer, but also a man who was ahead of his time in caring about the environment. John cared about animals, nature and the earth whether it was on land or life forms in the oceans. He was out to help protect it. When John died, it was a major loss to the world. Rest in peace John Denver.

      indeed. i miss him so much, and would have loved to have seen what he could do the rest of his life. I saw him in concert in an outdoor amphitheater in California in 1984. He was somewhat sad, as he shared about his divorce from Annie. I was surprised he could get through singing Annie's Song. I'll never forget that concert. What a beautiful man.

    This man is largely responsible for my love of philosophical words and whom I feel a kindred spirit with. I first listened to him in the late 70s and absorbed ever word and nuance from his songs. He captured the space that exists between our heart and mind which is called our soul, put a melody to it and created his own unique form of music that is loved the world over.

    His success came at a price. Seemed like such a gentle man. What a great talent I loved his music from the get go when I first heard him. Saw him in concert at Red Rocks Colorado, and at the Valley Forge Music fair in 96. My wife and I were in Carmel Cal at the Hogs Breath Restaurant having an early dinner when word came down that John Denver was just killed after his experimental aircraft crashed into the bay. RIP John your music still lives into 2024 and will live longer as I have my children and grand kids enjoying it. Your legacy lives on.

    I can feel his heart breaking in this song over his 2 failed marriages. There was always a sadness about John but his music was so beautifully presented. His voice was so pure. It's like we could see right into his soul. RIP and thanks for the beautiful memories and music you left behind for us.

      I am almost sure about this, that in one interview he said that what he had was a gift. and he knew it. He was aware of that. I miss him like anything. I took my parents in the early 90's to see his Christmas concert on Long Island. My father was a VERY discriminating person. He stood up and cheered at the concert's end. because whatever he did, it was quality. He knew his concerts were geared toward being perfect. He was truly the steward of a "gift" from God. But---his broken heart was his own stupid fault. He didn't have to cheat, and cheat, and cheat......on Annie. He didn't have to do that. but he was an imperfect human, as we all are. God Bless.

      @@annasteffiesolenick9732 Well, according to his book, he "had to". Throughout the book, he comes up with various explanations for his behavior. After sheepishly admitting that there had been "innocent amours" before, he cited the emptiness of a hotel suite after a concert as a reason for indulging his "romantic inclinations". The next time, it was because he had been seduced, by Jerry Weintraub's secretary, for example. Then he seems to have a need to compensate for some emptiness in his life with hedonism on tour, which includes drinking champagne and picking up women. Then, steering toward the end of his marriage with Annie, he has a semi-serious affair ("more than hello and goodbye") and makes it sound like he was looking out for someone who values him more. By the time he is frustrated in his marriage with Cassie, it sounds like: If you are doing it, I'm doing it to. -- To put it in his own words: "Sometimes you have to be more true to yourself than to your partner in order to keep the relationship healthy. Is there a gene for mutual deceit?" I'm glad that he didn't pursue a career in marriage counseling.
      Well, I wasn't born yesterday, I know how men are wired. While it's true that they think with their pricks (I never met an exception), they also have a masochistic side. They are drawn toward women who treat them like shit.
