    We agree or not, LOVE still most powerful, active, living, meaningful, and mysterious element of life in existence. People in the past, philosophers, theologians, lovers, and specially gifted people such as JD grappled to define LOVE, herein JD's best definition expressed profoundly in a song we won't get tired of hearing all day long

    I saw John Denver speaking of writing this song. He said he was driving up the Pacific coast highway alone. Very depressed. When suddely this song just floated by his mind and he started to think of everyone who had loved him and those he had loved. Family, his children , Annie,friends, and his fans.As he thought about this it brought him out of his depression and the song that had been a brief idea turned into a song that had , literally, just written itself in his head.He was a man whose talent knew no boundries. Sad though drugs & alcohol & bouts of depression made his personal life miserable.

    • @toms641

      Most of the great artists lead tormented lives.
      And John is in the pantheon of great artists.
      Like Beethoven (LVB), who could hear the music in his head, but was stone deaf.
      LVB was blessed, but he thought he was cursed (died of cirrhosis of the liver, age 56)

    What a beautiful "little" song!!
    Like the small but powerful voice of God
    Your are a gift, an expression of the power of God's Spirit..
    In your lyrics and through your music and voice, you express the tender spirit of love that allways knows how to restore and strengthen our hope, power and joy....... Thank you dear J.D. forever a gift and a light to the world you will be....🙏🙌

    Bozanstveni i ne ponovljiv vokal.Svojim pesmama stvara realnu sliku svega o cemu dusom peva. Neka mu je vecna slava!
