    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.

    This song is simply phenomenal, a song that cheers us up when we are sad, relaxes us when we sleep, calms our nervous system and our psychological state, thank God we have this song

    Es una lastima que haya desaparecido tan joven, sin embargo llego a componer tantas canciones, que aun, teniendo yo tantos discos suyos, siempre me encuentro con algo que no conocía, Fue sin duda un personaje carismático, como un mago para crear canciones y mucha gente al igual que yo lo recordará siempre con admiración y afecto, seguro esta junto a Dios componiendo canciones, por cierto tengo esta canción con Placido Domingo y el y es sublime!!! Gracias dodongsky100 por el regalo!!
