Sunshine On My Shoulders(cover) - Parker Lanier

"Sunshine On My Shoulders' is a beautiful song off of the album titled "Poems, Prayers & Promises" which came out in 1971. Theres no better place to sing this song than sitting in the grass on a beautiful day outside. The vibes are perfect.
I'm still chipping away at my request list. It gets longer every week and I'm having a blast with it! Some of these John Denver songs, I've been singing and playing a long time. Others, I'm learning specifically for the videos. The challenge is always accepted and greatly appreciated.
I sincerely hope you enjoy.
Peace, Parker Lanier

1972, late high school senior year, perhaps Christmas time. Scrambled my Social clique, and started hanging out with one of my classmates I had never known! I was all about industrial arts, science, math, and track. Tony was all about performing arts, Choir, and Tennis! We never had a class together and how our paths crossed I cannot remember but I am so grateful it did. I always loved music but had no formal awareness. Tony had a 1942 Gibson that was lost to me at the time. He gave me a 1965 Rio nylon string guitar and proceeded to teach me how to play. Tony was a slightly better than average guitar player, his guitars voice was stellar, and his voice was simply angelic. When he played “Sunshine on my shoulder” girls would swoon! Here I am 50 years later playing much better than he did at 17, but I will never play as good as he did at 17. I have lost touch with Tony, but I am so grateful for the gift he gave me. Koodo’s to those with natural talent as this individual has. I for one , am keenly aware of how exceptional your talent is.

John wrote this tune on a cold rainy day when he was living in..Chicago ( 1970?) I learned it so I could sing for a girI had crush on in 1976 other people were singing Freebird. Good tune ,eh? There was no youtube then

You kick ass bro. You've got John Denver soul. He would be ecstatic to hear somebody honor his music as you do. I envy your ability to play like you do. I'd love to hear you play Annies Song!

Sunshine glimmering through small branches driving along the road sometimes makes me feel timeless.

[@ParkerLanierMusic]

[@lisagoolsby3791]

Wow! Just absolutely beautiful! Ran across you from 6 years ago singing Matthew and decided to see if you were still playing and singing. So glad you are and your voice has matured and is just beautiful. Loved listening to this and thanks for sharing your gift!

Hello 👋 Lisa. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl

[@texasdude5802]

I can't say how amazing this is. I have old John Denver albums and I am old enough that I was able to hear him in concert years ago. I need to get out my record player and record a comparison .

Whhhhaaaaat? Forgotten music. Oh man when I was your age I’d be ringing your doorbell with my guitar strapped across my back🥰. You didn’t exist in my time oh well.

[@ParkerLanierMusic]

Haha glad you liked it!

[@lenag533]

You get it’s not the chords that make the song it’s the finger picking which is everything in acoustic guitar.

[@jonconger3527]

Great stuff thanks!
