He was a gift for all to enjoy. A humble man, that was grateful for the gift of talent given to him and loved to share it. RIP Mr. Denver.

I don’t recall him being ‘looked down on’...But, maybe it was the crowd I hung with. I became a fan when i first heard his music in ‘71. My brother in law, a green beret, played all Denver’s songs in his Gibson guitar and serenaded my sister with them. Darcy Farrow was a favorite he’d sing to my sister. Later, they named their only daughter Darcy!

Charlene. Thank you for sharing John’s music with others. Please know that in doing this, you are helping to heal others, often without even being aware. I am a retired social worker and a long time JD fan. I was blessed to see John 16 times over the years and always felt the healing quality in John’s voice. For many years I counseled my clients who were stressed to “take two John Denver songs and call me in the morning “. It’s amazing how many of them responded positively to John’s voice and continued on as fans. I still listen to him everyday to balance my psyche and remember what is really important in life, especially in these chaotic times. The vibration of love and compassion in his voice, and the deep meanings in his words always touch my soul and provide healing. I consider it a privilege to share this aspect of John with as many people as I can, in my efforts to help heal others and help make our world a little better place for all of us.

Every time I hear this song, it makes me cry. John Denver was truly a "song's best friend". Although his songs were about nature, protecting the environment and the human condition, they were so very true. - A man totally ahead of his time and so many critics just dismissed him with the proverbial wave of their hand. Now his songs are standards. I miss seeing him and hearing new materials. So sad he was taken from us way too soon.

When this song first came out, I thought he was just being poetic in talking about dancing on the moon. Turns out he was serious, and applied to NASA. He was fit and qualified as a pilot but they, stupidly, said no.

His music was always so filled with passion and joy. It is truly painful to watch his videos, yet it’s an exquisite pain. What a tragic loss, losing him so young and senselessly. He had so much more to share. RIP

I had the great pleasure of seeing him live in London just him and six guitars. A truly magical evening. Like all of us he was flawed, numerous affairs when on the road, but I don't think he ever stopped loving his first love Annie. Sadly, left us too soon, forever missed environmental warrior.R.I.P Mr. Deuchendorf.

Exactly my thought. I am in my 60's and recently diagnosed with cancer. It was early and my chances are good, but my brothers and their kids were freaking out. I love to sing, and my best friend is a great guitar player, and we had a family gathering and I sang this for them. Maybe the treatment works and I live another 20 years, maybe it doesn't and I am gone in a year or so - either way, what does it really matter? I have had a good life. Like John, I'd hate to see it end, but it is going to at some point, and I prefer to appreciate what I have had rather than be depressed by what I might have.

I was a kid when John Denver's songs hit the airwaves in the Philippines. All his songs are top hits John Denver is a Hall of Famer we never had. His hopes and dream - - -2:49 I'd like to raise a family, and I'd to sail away, how sweet it is to love somebody. POEMS, PRAYERS AND PROMISES I've been lately thinking About my life's time All the things I've done And how it's been And I can't help believing In my own mind I know I'm gonna hate to see it end I've seen a lot of sunshine Slept out in the rain Spent a night or two all on my own I've known my lady's pleasures Had myself some friends And spent a time or two in my own home And I have to say it now It's been a good life all in all It's really fine To have a chance to hang around And lie there by the fire And watch the evening tire While all my friends and my old lady Sit and pass the pipe around And talk of poems and prayers and promises And things that we believe in How sweet it is to love someone How right it is to care How long it's been since yesterday And what about tomorrow And what about our dreams And all the memories we share The days they pass so quickly now Nights are seldom long And time around me whispers when it's cold The changes somehow frighten me Still I have to smile It turns me on to think of growing old For though my life's been good to me There's still so much to do So many things my mind has never known I'd like to raise a family I'd like to sail away And dance across the mountains on the moon I have to say it now It's been a good life all in all It's really fine To have the chance to hang around And lie there by the fire And watch the evening tire While all my friends and my old lady Sit and pass the pipe around And talk of poems and prayers and promises And things that we believe in How sweet it is to love someone How right it is to care How long it's been since yesterday What about tomorrow What about our dreams And all the memories we share Songwriters: John Denver

A lesson in living in full appreciation of the moment. Yes, you look back and forward. But in thinking that, reflect that you are just there - in the moment. Then pass the pipe and be grateful that you've had a toke. That's all it is.
