oh yeah....i pretty much know those words by heart....ha...one of the most recognizeable songs ever....and my country roads are covering with snow again...its pouring out.....
That song takes me right back to when I was a young teenager. I had a neighbour who I loved like a second Mum, and she was very fond of John Denver. We lost her last year to cancer. I always think of her now whenever I hear this, or Annie's Song.
Valerie, I am so enjoying these Songs and Sounds Saturday's because it's been so cool to see your various tastes in music. Like you, I have so many different types of music genres that I enjoy.
Loved this clip! My favorite John Denver song was, "Annie's Song."
Jay, I guess John Denver had a lot of followers. I always amazes me how music will recall certain memories, some major ones and some not so. I think that's why I love it so.
Good morning, Ron. My music tastes vary. I like classical, too, but draw the line at modern jazz which I don't understand. I am glad you reminded me about Annie's Song... I'll hunt it one out for a future S&SonS.
Congratulations on the snow... okay anyone reading this will think that's a daft thing to say but I know how much you love the stuff. We had a severe frost in the night and there was a warning about snow but it won't be much (she says, tongue in cheek).
Brian, I agree with you. The words were easy to learn and to retain - forever more. I'm sorry about your weather, really, but thankful we haven't got it yet.
If you're new to A Mixed Bag you might find something to interest you, a bit of mirth, a story or two, or some pictures. I'm so pleased you popped in, do leave a comment if you have time.

ReplyDeleteFoot-tapping, soul-warming music. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
One of my all time favorites. Incomparable......
ReplyDeleteLast year I ordered Ron 'All of My Memories', it's a cd box sex of John Denver's music. He loves it. He's always listened to JD.
ReplyDeleteNice choice, Valerie.
