As a West Virginian, it’s nice to see all these people from all over the world uniting, in peace, and are listening to a song about a place they’ve never been before. My state may be poor, but it still has it’s beauty.
My fiancé showed me this song a week before he died. We don’t even like country that much, well he did more than me. But I still jam to it 5 years later. Brings a tear to my eye
Went to a mate's funeral that I always thought only liked Australian hip hop, they played this song at the memorial service & it's now become one of my favourites too.
I was brought to USA when I was just 10 years old. 21 years later living here, this has become where I call home.. yet I am still not considered a citizen here. If I were to ever be deported, this would be the song I told myself I'd play in my protest. I pay all my taxes and take no part in any government benefits; I even applied to serve in the army here to show gratitude, but was denied.. I still Bless this place for what it stands for! God bless us all....
@@LemonThyme1933Thats because thats what he is .just because u come to our country illegally or even legally that doesnt just make u american.being a american is more then just being in our country.we have our own demographic .sick of people acting like we dont.
Makes me miss my dad. As a kid, on the weekends he would turn up the stero (then it was cassette tapes) to John Denver. He's been dead for nearly 10 years.. and I still have to jam to some john Denver to bring those memories back! ❤
Moving from Jersey to West Virginia September 2023!! God has sent me on a mission to help as many as I can. No idea how or when but when God speaks I listen. God 🙏 please be good to me please and pave my path with good n remove any evil n demons from my travels. I love u God love u Jesus in ur name Amen pray for me my friends.
*As a child of 1983, this is where my real memories started. My crushes, first boyfriends & first heartaches. Also reminds me of my friends & parents when they were younger. These songs are golden & no music today holds a candle to them.💖💖💖*
My mom was from West Virginia. Loved going there as a kid to visit. Gonna go back there one day, buy a big property and just live the rest of my life on the side of a mountain foothill.
I've always loved this song, and I grew up in NYC. It has a bitter-sweet quality that fills you with joy and a longing for home at the same time. Like all great songs, it has a universal appeal that touches the heart. I suppose that's why, even though I've never been to West Virginia, when I hear this song, I begin to miss it.
I’m a Mississippian. This song hits close to my heart from when I was younger. I miss it when we could be oblivious to the world around us and just listen to some good music.
My daddy loved this song. He passed away a couple months ago am I’m only 14. So, we played it at his funeral and I was holding his hand for 2 hours while crying. I miss them both.
This song gives me tears of pride and joy because I been grown up in West Virginia and I love West Virginia more than any where and I have to agree that is is heaven , I love West Virginia
I love his voice Jr just makes you want to get in uour car and drive right to the country roads. I miss them lots. Way to go on your music it speaks to the heart.
Old school classic 👌🏽 love it my godfather David used play this when I was a kid 😊 , I was just watching logan lucky and it was on there and I had listen to it on RUclips ❤
Great video. John Denver has been one of my all time favorite artist. This song is probably my all time favorite John Denver song. John Denver was the first live concert I ever attended.
30 years old this year, this song brings me back to the country roads of Northen FL. I miss the old FL so much. I’m now in SW OK, the feeling is back & I always shed a tear about it. Save our Country. Please.
Heard this song twice. Im a random dude that lives in Kansas City. I cater sometimes in Downtown KC and twice ive catered for West Virginia in a tournament for the Big 12 both men and women. The camaraderie of the University, this song playing when I observed them winning and practicing with this playing, just truly seemed like a great school and super nice staff. They even had me singing this song lol. Beautiful song, and my grandma an old black lady and business woman from Kansas City. She loved country, and loved this song too. Country really is beautiful if you listen
2023 My granddaughter loves this song nothing like good music this is one of her favorites she learned it in day camp what a great day camp God Bless everyone ❤
We own and live on 360 acres,35 miles to the nearest town,the wife and I live in a 1,100 sq ft log cabin,just the two of us built with logs off our place,her and I ,3 Belgian Malinois,3 Cane Corsos and two Heelers,chickens,horses living the dream for the past 40+ years,not a easy life,but a very rewarding life,swimming with 8 dogs in the summer,endless fun and endless work,every time I hear country roads,it makes me think it was written about our place
I live in California I’m an American Latino and I love this song!!! I’m new to country but I love it John Denver Randy Travis And Johnny Cash are my favorite so far 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Was in 4th grade when our music teacher made us sing this for the first time. Now in a few months I'll be off to college. Many things changed, a class topper became an average student, but the vibes this song gives always stayed the same.
I know this song from my childhood. I'm from Belgium... but when I flew with a group of ladies from west Virginia on my flight Doha to Washington, (Im a flight attendant), we talked about this song. They were surprised I knew the song. But I told them I grew up watching American movies and tv shows. Towards the end of the flight, I sat on my hunches next to them and a few of them knew the lyrics apart from the main part so we sang it together. It was so nice. I wish I had asked for the video one of them took while we were singing along...
Fields, meadows, and mountains, especially blue ridge ones. It’s a song of travel of adventure, and always finding a way back. Soon this song really will be older than the mountains, but that wont change the fact that it is GREAT, and it always will be. It should have been famous yesterday, yesterday, country roads…
I was listening to this song when I got the news that one of my younger classmates who was kind, polite, and always gave off a positive aura died of suicide. My tears flowed even harder. May God forgive all his sins so that he can get a decent and happy place there🥀.
My mom was listening to country songs today and afterwards this one stuck in my head ALL DAY 🙈🙈😶🌫️💖 Makes me want to call West Virginia home too ❤ (im from the netherlands, so not even close 😅)
Thank You Very Much John Denver!! "Awesome Song" I'm very proud to be from West Virginia!! It's ALMOST HEAVEN WEST VIRGINIA!! WEST VIRGINIA is a very beautiful place to live!! We're good people from West Virginia!! We I leave West Virginia to go to the beach for a week!! I'm ready to go back to Almost Heaven West Virginia!! Because West Virginia is my Home state!! Born and raised in West Virginia!! West Virginia is a very Beautiful State!! 🎉 Thank God I'm West Virginia Country Boy!!😢

You know, it’s rare that somebody is from West Virginia, which I think is quite odd due to the beauty of the state.
@stuckslavic I tear up every time i hear and sing along to country roads,& im born and raised in Fayette County WV 😭😢😥

This was my dad's favorite song, he passed 14 months ago....first time I can listen, sing to without breaking down. Forever in my mind, heart and soul
He's in a better place now. May he rest in peace.

As a West Virginian it is so awesome to see all the comments about how they are from other states or countries lessening to this song.
Listening to it in Florida. Getting ready to move there soon

What an impressive song! Don't know why I am crying...

Sorry for your loss
This song gives me tears of pride and joy because I been grown up in West Virginia and I love West Virginia more than any where and I have to agree that is is heaven , I love West Virginia

I used to sing this song when I was homesick. I’m not from WV but it is a great song when you’re sad and homesick.
I think that's why I am drawn to it at this time. I've been living in Central Europe for 15yrs. I stay to see my grandchildren growing up.
Hello future person, yes we are still listening to this in [insert year here] . You have great taste in music too. Have a lovely day!
