YES I do. I had the honor of being his massage therapist for a week. I was 6 months pregnant at time. I used Calypso and Fly like an Eagle for the first underwater home birth in our town of South Lake Tahoe. John invited me to the his show, got me a chair and and asked me when it was over how I like the show. A memory I will never forget. Earth Day is tomorrow, and he sang for Mother Earth. God bless you John, may your music and love shine down on us all.

Yep. For all his songs but especially this one. I’m always wandering around the mountains in Colorado and usually can’t help but belt out a few verses of Rocky Mountain High when I get to a summit. I’m off key but luckily it’s only mountain goats, marmots, and ptarmigans that are listening, and they don’t seem to mind.

First time I saw him live was 1984, not long after his divorce. That tour he was sort of going back to his roots. Just him, completely alone. Him, 3 guitars and a piano, and absolutely nothing else. 10,000 people sat mesmerized for 2-1/2 hours! He had an incredible gift of being able to connect, not just with the audience, but with every individual member of the audience. Every person there felt like the whole thing was for them. Very few entertainers have that gift.

@@scrappydude1 True, it was a gift. Saw him live twice; first time in Nashville, and then in Salt Lake City. Both times he was so down to earth and completely at home performing his music as if we were at his place. Think most of audience felt that way because no one wanted the show to end.

It was 1979, I went to live with my aunt and uncle in Cedaredge Colorado. I was from a broken home and drugged fuel life in San Bernardino Ca. I was 16 and found home in a place I had never been before. Finished my last 2 years of high school there. Went into the Navy in 1984 and never made it back to the place I always referred as the only home I ever knew.

I can't imagine how you could think I would be sarcastic, and that's sad about his friend, but I'm fairly certain John is talking about himself being reborn when he moved to the mountains at age 27 ("coming home to a place he'd never been before"), based on interviews I've seen that he did and just the whole context of that song. As I said very clearly, brilliant songwriter.

Of course I grew up with John Denver, listening to his music as a teenager and still today at the age of 63. When my girls were young and we moved to my present home today, I was up on a ladder stenciling my living room walls. Quite industrious I was at the age of 40, straddling the very top of the ladder, walking the stencil across the top of the wall with John Denver blasting from my "boom box." A complaining daughter commented that I should listen to her music; she was tired of hearing John Denver. Momentarily, I stopped the music and explained to her that some day when she hears John Denver music she will think of me and all the important memories of her life growing up. She was 13 years old then. Soon when she'd turned 15, she reminded me of this comment; she'd listened and discovered how motivating and uplifting and paralyzingly captivating his message and music are. His connection with the goodness of life was and still is instantaneous.

Hey Natalie... I'm 62 born in 1958. I enjoyed your story. In my teen years growing up in the 70s, music was the best. John Fogarty with CCR, Dire Straights, Bee Gees, Bob Seger with The Silver Bullet Band, are just a few of my favorites. John Denver though...WOW... nobody pulled at my heartstrings or gave me "feel-good" uplifting moments like he did. To this day I still go to him when I want music 🎶 corresponding to my mood. I don't think anyone could put music together better than John to fit a person's mood. Definitely a kindred spirit. I hope life is treating you good. Live long and prosper! (Spock) 🎶✌️

Was a ski bum out in Aspen, in 1975/76, working in Snowmass as a desk clerk. Our night auditor looked exactly like JD, and with my granny-glasses, cowboy hat and guitar, he was the spitting image. We'd set him up in the mid-courtyard area around one of the fire pits, and everyone would stop and ask for autographs. One afternoon, during one of our little stunts, the "real thing" showed-up, laughed at us, borrowed my guitar and gave a little impromptu concert for about 150 people, in near-freezing weather. Neat guy.

Not country. He was singer-songwriter genre. James Taylor was too, but I lobe John Denver’s whole catalogue better. Wonderful artist. If you ever want to entertain yourself, watch the hearings about putting parental advisory labels on records in the senate. Al Gore is probably pretty embarrassed about all that now. Frank Zappa testified-and he actually se med nervous! He was great, though. Dee Schneider also testified. And then last, John Denver. You could tell, they thought he as gong to be their ace witness to label records, censor them. After letting the snare know his time as limited because he had a meeting with NASA (seriously-he wanted to travel in space), John Denver set them all straight on this censorship. He was not going to be their tool, and he sure as hell let them know. The hearings are in KZbin. Frank Zappa and John Denver, fighting the good fight together. It’s priceless.

My husband and I began our marriage in the Colorado mountains west of Boulder. Years later after we moved from the state, John Denver's music could always take us back to those early happy years. Next week I have planned a very special Celebration of Life for my husband of 60 years who just passed. Rocky Mountain High will be sung at his Celebration. Has there ever been a more beautiful love song than Annie's Song?
