    John Denver is the only person to have two of his songs recognized as official state songs. This one, “ Take Me Home Country Roads” is the official state song of West Virginia and “Rocky Mountain High” holds the same distinction for Colorado.

      As well as testify about rock lyrics to congress along with Twisted Sister, Frank Zappa. - "An artist, I am opposed to any kind of a rating system, voluntarily or otherwise," he states. Denver explains that his song "Rocky Mountain High" has been misinterpreted as being about drug use, an example of how the listening experience varies by individual.

      Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
      The Nitty Gritty Dirt band had an enthusiastic following but didn't get the air time many thought it should. I don't know that you can find a video of the band but it is worth tracking down an album for a listen.
      The video you just watched was recorded at the 1985 Farm Aid concert in Champaign, Illinois. For adventurous souls across the nation, in the next few weeks the county history museum will present an exhibit of that concert.

      My ex-husband was a Corporate Pilot, and met him at an airport while waiting for the executives to return for their flight. John Denver of course was an aviation fanatic. My ex said they talked for quite awhile until John's flight was ready, and that yes, he was just as nice as he seemed onstage

      Through a mutual acquaintance John Denver joined us for a family dinner at our home while on the road and yes, despite being a huge celebrity at the time, he was a wonderful guest. I was just a youngster at the time but he still impressed me as a truly decent, peaceful human being.

    Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. aka John Denver was born in Roswell, NM and grew up in a military family. We saw him in early 1970s on the capital lawn in Charleston, WV where he sang this song multiple times. It was a free concert to honor the state. John has a very interesting biography as musical geniuses often have.

    This song came on the radio when I was head back to Colorado after being gone for nearly 2 years and had not seen my wife in a year. I was taking care of my Dad until he past. I was in beautiful valley in Montana with snow capped mountains I was driving towards. This hardened constrution worker burst into tears with, sadness, relief, joy of heading home and the beauty of where I was at. That was over 7 years ago and when ever I hear it again I'm right back there with a begining of a tear.

    The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is wonderful! You could listen to: "Fishing in the Dark", their version of "Mr Bojangles", "Long Hard Road", or "Dance Little Jean". They've got a good, clean, country/rock sound.

    One of my earlier memories is traveling home with my family after visiting my uncle in Texas. We were closer to home than not and this song came on the radio and we all sang along. Doesn’t sound all that impactful I suppose but the song always takes me back to a more innocent time of togetherness. John Denver was a treasure.

    If you want to hear him sing a comedic song try “Forest Lawn” about being buried in an expensive cemetery.
    Or the hilarious song called “Toledo Ohio” (may be entitled “Saturday night in Toledo Ohio”) which got him in trouble with Ohioans.
    To hear about the peace of life try listening to “Poems and Prayers and Promises”.

    The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is wonderful Country Rock Music group that’s been around since mid 1960’s. Top songs to listen to -
    Mr. Bojangles (also listen to Sammy Davis Jr.’s version)
    Will the Circle be Unbroken
    Dance Little Jean
    Long Hard Road
    Fishin’ in the Dark
    I’d even recommend listening to the entire 1972 album Will the Circle be Unbroken. The great Country Legends that they were able to convince to collaborate on it is phenomenal.

  • @maureencollins5177
    @maureencollins5177 Год назад +4

    This song is from an early part of his career. He started out in folk groups and then went out on his own. This song was co-written by Denver and Bill and Taffy Danoff and first performed it at a famous club in D.C., The Cellar Door. After recording it the song climbed the charts slowly but eventually hit #1.
    Note John Denver wasn't from Colorado originally. He was an Army brat whose family lived in AZ, TX, AL. His song "Rocky Mountain High" talks about a man "born in the summer of his 27th year, coming home to a place he'd never been before". He and some friends went up in the Rockies on a cloudless night to watch the Perseid Meteor Shower and he fell in love with Colorado and moved to Aspen.

    I'm from Dub V, and in the last week have been enjoying your reactions as I've roamed through England, Switzerland, Abu Dhabi, and up late now in Australia.
    Haven't lived full-time in my home state in at least a dozen years. But this is our hymn. People all over the world adore it, which puts a big smile on my face every time I catch those chords on the wind.
    I carry an expired WV driver's license as a keep-sacred and a hall pass to parade up to the mic when someone cues it on karaoke.
    And though my travelling life fulfills me in all the best ways, the line, "And driving down the road, I get a feeling that I should have been home yesterday... YESTERDAY!", gets me in the feels every. single. time.
    The porch light's always on - be good to have you visit anytime, and thanks so much for creating these with all this fun and kindness.

    I'm not ashamed as grown man and former Marine to admit this song makes me cry. My Mother's family is from Clarksburg W Va. Old country Italians.....the Spatafores. Rosie had the country store. Joe always had a smile and my Uncle Sam always ready to take me fishing or spend time with me in the early 70s when I was a little kid. The adults playing canasta until 3am in the morning. That circle of love I will never forget and those people will be in my memory forever until they put me in the ground.

    He was also a pretty good actor. He was in a hilarious movie called Oh, God! and, if I recall correctly, he played a grocer who started to hear God talking to him. God was played by George Burns and John Denver's wife was played by Teri Garr. It was a very funny, wholesome movie. A favorite of my childhood.

    John Denver was born in New Mexico but had an affinity for Colorado and all things pastoral, bucolic or ''country''.

    I saw Denver way back in 1974. I was into hard rock back then. I've been to see in concert most any style of music. JOHN Denvers concert was to this day the best concert I ever saw.

    So many better places to ski than the stuck up Aspen slopes. John Denver was just a classic musician who truly sang from the heart!

    Nitty Gritty Dirt Band had a lot of great songs. Try "House at Pooh Corner", "Mr. Bojangles", or "Bless the broken road"...

    Denver's death has always intrigued me. He was flying his own home built aircraft. Officially he had trouble switching fuel tanks, but he was flying illegally after a few dui arrests.

    "Thank God I'm A Country Boy" - the only "country" song on my list! And if you need to relax and just smile......"Sunshne On My Shoulders". Love your reactions - thank you for sharing John - my youth! - with us.

    Check out John live as he sings “Bells of Rhymney”. His voice and twelve string skills are amazing.

    My daddy used to play this song on his guitar and sing it with me and my two sisters when we were little. He passed away when I was 13 years old and every time I hear this song, it takes me back to those bittersweet memories. 🥺

    John wasn't from Colorado, but he made it his home. There are many monuments dedicated to him. His song "ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH" is one of a few songs named the un-official state song

    • @paulineh4019
      @paulineh4019 Год назад +1

      Rocky Mountain High is one of 2 official Colorado State songs. Also Country Roads is the Official State song of West Virginia. So one artist with TWO Official State songs...not bad hey!

    John Denver wrote the song, but if you want to hear it sang with emotion search for Jonathan Antoine ( sung during covid pandemic)

    If you like John Denver's voice you need to listen to Annie's Song. He wrote the song for his first wife. It really is a pretty song.
