I spent my life and career working for the US National Park Service as a Ranger. These places do exist. I have seen them. Please protect the wilderness, we lose more every day.
I have retired now, and my wife of 50 years and together found our own peace.
7:39 There are so many powers determined to destroy this world for a few bucks. Right now a copper mine is being proposed right next to the boundary waters wilderness area in Minnesota 😢. One of my favorite places I've ever been. I go there for a week or two every summer. It sets your heart free. On e they pollute it with that mine you can't bring it back. And the rich guy that owns the mine? What does he care? There is a bad fight coming. The wealthy and powerful need to be reigned in. French Revolution style if necessary 😊
Thank you! I've long enjoyed the National Parks and Forests in California. A couple years back, I took a cross country camping trip with my teenage daughter. We vistited Mono Lake, Death Valley, the Grand Canyon, Sam Houston, Smokey Moutain and Rocky Moutain National parks , plus various state and county parks. Enjoy your retirement. We have a beautiful country. I'm glad I got to enjoy more of it with my daughter. Scorpions, Big Horn sheep, Bears, Alligators, Moose, snakes, frogs, mosquitoes, and big spiders. I love our National Parks.
Yes sir. Will do. Thank you very much!
Watching you today from Denver, Colorado. John Denver and his music are American treasures. I think he is extra special to us in the mountains and high plains.
You bet, 'cause RMH is our State Song! 😁
Hello from Parker, just south of the city :)
He loved and appreciated natural beauty everywhere on earth. Singing about your own backyard is where you start.
This song by John was about himself. 15 years ago i left New England on Atlantic coast with my two black lab dogs and went to Rocky Mountains for three months and just explored the beauty. My wife encouraged me to finally take the steps and go. Those two beautiful dogs are gone now but the memories are fresh as if were yesterday. Now i have a Siberian husky and she and i explore the White Mountains of New Hampshire making new discoveries and memories., John Denver accompanied us every step of the way to this very moment.
i have made several, multiple several, hikes and camping excursions into various national parks. the thing that i most remember is a sign i saw as we went into the grand canyon for an 8 day hike down into, then along the river, and then back out of the canyon. that sign said.... "take nothing but memories.... leave nothing but footprints." words to live by.
I grew up listening to John Denver. He was my first concert @ Red Rocks. I go camping a lot in Colorado in the Rockies, I always have John's song in my head.
My favorite Denver song! John was often referred to as "a song's best friend," and he truly was! Thanks for this one guys, great job!✌️❤️
John Denver did so much beautiful music. Loved him. So talented. Gone too soon sadly 😢
This one gets me every time the more i hear it the more i love Its pure Joy to the ears
I've literally been around the world, and there are so many wonderful places and things to see--and from my experience, the vast majority of people are welcoming and beautiful. I'm now living in Colorado for the third time in my life and it is as beautiful as the late great Mr. John Denver portrays it in this song. I would gladly host anyone who would wish to share God's beauty in this amazing place if they would agree to do the same in their home country as I'm sure I was be just as amazed at the beauty of their homeland.
I've done a lot of hiking in some of these pictures. John really captured the essence in this song.
Imagine John in concert and 10,000+ fans/friends singing along. It was incredible.
You should listen to his “Sunshine on my shoulder”…..beautiful!
Beautiful song! John Denver was a gifted singer songwriter & actor. He had so many great hits in the 70's-80's. Some of his signature songs were "Take Me Home, Country Roads", "Grandma's Feather Bed", "Fly Away", "Leaving On A Jet Plane", "Poems, Prayers & Promises", "Annie's Song", "Calypso", "Sunshine On My Shoulders" etc. John appeared in several films & television specials during the 70's-80's, including the 1977 hit "Oh, God!", in which he starred alongside George Burns.
What you were saying about the US having everything is very correct, especially when it comes to scenery etc. Many people from other nations wonder why most Americans do not travel to other countries etc...we just do not need to. We have every form of scenery etc you can ask for right here in America, beautiful forests, gorgeous mountains, deserts, plains, tropical areas you name it we have it right here in America. Even people who love travelling to the huge cities we have those all over and the small rural towns and farming areas for people who like that.
John Denver wrote most of the songs he ever recorded. He did write this one. He became popular in the 70s and early 80s. But I tell you the music from the 1970s was the best ever and very eclectic
Great song , and describes many people feeling about the outdoors. Very peaceful. Love it.
I have listened to this song for over 50 years and it is as fresh as the first time. His beautiful voice and beautiful idea of coming home.
Also, listen to The Eagle and The Hawk. Very short, very specific and personal.
The Eagle and the Hawk is amazing. Very John Denver.
@@nightmary
So spirited. So alive. You know that it was based on something John personally saw.
At the age of 27 John Denver wrote this song "Rocky Mountain High in (1972)." It's about his rebirth when he came upon the State of Colorado in the US. What he saw was the beautiful Rocky Mountain Ranges, Lakes, Rivers, Streams and Abundant Wildlife and Fauna. He later would make Colorado his home for the rest of his life until his passing in 1997. You cannot go wrong going down the Rabbitt Hole that is the late great Singer/Songwriter John Denver. Great reaction as always. I am an empath just like your wonderful husband. Peace and love to you both.
You entered the rabbit hole. Now keep going! John Denver recorded SO many beautiful songs that you will just love. Please continue on this journey.
His songs, In A Grand Way, Eclipse & Mathew among others will touch you with the music & lyrics & story telling.
Great reaction.
God bless guys.
Nice one, and great observations. John Denver always gets you going that way.
On Mothers Day i think 1991 John Denver showed up as a surprise to his mother at the church i attended because his mom went to the church. The whole church got a surprise performance!! What a great mothers day!!! What a beautiful soul!!
Great reaction as always! I remember hearing this song when I was young and enjoying the images it created in my mind. Moved to the suburbs of Denver Colorado in 1983. Once I saw the majestic Rocky Mountains I new I found my new home. Love you both.......wish you were my neighbors!
Mountain lakes like that are truly amazing. They are crystal clear. You can see through the water 20-30 feet out. On a trip with my wife and daughter swam in one and the water could be drank right from the lake. So many beautiful places
The rockies are a must see if you ever make it here seeing pikes peek from the garden of the gods is a sight you will never forget and take the drive up pikes peek highway it's awe inspiring
Hi from America. Colorado is beautiful. God put me in Michigan. A Michigan is also so beautiful. William s
By your reaction I can tell that you are both beautiful people. Great job.
This is the music of my life thank you for showing some love to America
I was born in 1958 in Denver Colorado and grew up listing to John my older sister loved him after he wrote this song I became a fan! RIP my sweet lovely Sister I will always love you and will always remember the love you had for John!
Both meanings of 'high' are appropriate for John Denver (AND Colorado LOL) Beautiful voice, beautiful song. I moved to the state a few years after my 27th year. Still here 40 yrs later.
John Denver was a treasure. You might like his song "Take Me Home Countrry Roads." 🙂
John Denver makes you feel like that Sunshine is always on your shoulders
Yes, I really love his music too. It just reaches into your soul. Another song I really love is "Poems, prayers and promises". Strangely, not many people have reacted to it but those who have, have been deeply touched. Please consider reviewing this song at some time in the future, I would love to see what you think of it.
You guys are so awesome, I can see the joy music brings you and its wonderful .
Colorado is beautiful having visited there many times. I live in a part of the USA called New England where we have mountains, Forrest, fields, and the Ocean and the four seasons. America is a beautiful country
Nice reaction and review
Any John Denver songs are worth spending the time listening to the poetry and his amazing music.
This is one of my all time favorite songs, beautifully written, beautifully sung and the music carries you along on a cloud imagining you are walking with him in the forest. I feel this way about forest… I love your reactions they are pure and honest like this song!!!
Wot a beautiful song with such a real heart felt meaning
I love John Denver…and I love you two so much! Thanks for posting this!
Lots of love from the state of Utah, USA. 15:25
I saw John Denver at Red Rocks Amphitheater outside of Denver in the early 1970's, and at The Grand Teton Music Festival in Jackson, Wyoming in 2001.
An amazing talent. I still listen to his vinyls - 50 years later.
This is a great reaction to a song like this. Makes you take a good look at your priorities. I would also recommend " Country Roads" by John Denver. 👍
Do you lovely people feel blessed?I'm sure you do, you have soul & big,big hearts.Bless you.
Hi guys, you dropped off my radar. Great reaction, and how lovely that you've recreated to one of my favourite John Denver songs. You're so right, in that this song speaks to your heart in finding that peaceful place inside you. Love the banter.
I don't know if anyone else has mentioned it, but, Denver wasn't John's real last name. He loved Colorado so much he adopted Denver as his last name. He also has the distinction of having 2 songs as state songs in America. 'Take Me Home, Country Roads', is the state song for West Virginia, and the one you just listened too is Colorado's. BTW - I love your heartfelt reactions.
John Denver went to High School here in Fort Worth, Texas. His dad was stationed here in the Airforce.
If you two ever come to America you can stay at my house with my wife and I. I will give you a tour of the great State of Texas.
You two are my favorite reactors.
Once when I took my family over to Seattle, we were driving over Snoqualamie pass on I-90. Near lake Kechelus (spelling?) the John Denver CD I had in came to Eagle and the Hawk. About 15 seconds into the song, a hawk flew across the road right in front of us. Very close. Then just before the end I looked to my left towards the lake and there was a bald eagle circling over the water. Blew my mind
One of my all-time favorite songs. Also, I wish you two were my neighbors!
So beautiful, light up!
John Denver was born as Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. but took the performing name, John Denver due to his love for the Rocky Mountains. Denver is the largest city in Colorado.
Great reaction. Beautiful song, beautiful state. RIP John.
You have to check out John Denver live in his ( The Wildlife Concert ) he does all his songs ! It is a great concert I think you will love it !! Take care you guys are great !!
Gorgeous singing
I forgot also if you want a great love song you must lesson to John Denver singing ( Annie's Song )
Great artist, so many wonderful songs. As for the photos, some shown are of places in the Canadian Rockies, I see Moraine Lake Alberta for sure :) Great reaction video.
There are a few places in America, like Colorado, where people just visit and never leave, becoming captivated by the beauty of them. Stories like this are actually quite common here.
What a beautiful state and John Denvers voice is amazing 😊
I recommend John Denver and Plácido Domingo "Perhaps Love". One of the most beautiful Love Songs!
I loved your reaction video... The two of you remind me that good people are good people. We live worlds apart and you both sound exactly like all of my best friends. You mentioned all the things we talk about all the time. Nature, the last great generation , love the time we grew up in, the best music, feeling too busy, the inability to understand how someone can throw a candy wrapper in the forest on purpose, wanting to find peace in our lives etc.
I live in Iowa, USA, less than a 10 hour , easy drive, to the Rocky Mountains, and I haven't been there in 35 years. You remind me I should go !!!! You say you have to think the pictures in the video must be enhanced, but I can tell you I have seen with my own eyes scenes like that, and though there may be some enhancements to some of the pictures, I can also tell you there are lots and lots of places that are far more beautiful than any of the pictures in the video....
If you ever make it to the United States for a visit, I will take time off , and I will show you around, and you can stay with me, free of charge !!!! Message me !
Thank you for waking me up !!!!
Oh my...your message made us teary. Thank you for your beautiful words. Means so much knowing that they're like-minded people all over the world ☺️ Peace and love from Romania 💚
Yes, Colorado is truly beautiful, and so is my home of almost 45 years here in Alaska! That said, I just happen to know that Romania has a lot of natural beauty as well! Make sure to celebrate the beauty around you and hopefully one day you will get to visit some of the natural beauty in North America! Always enjoy your reactions....cheers!
You have already found your peace, you simply need look no further than one another - everything you need is right there.
You're so real. It is wonderful to watch your reactions. You incorporate the world into the songs. Thank You.
I just discovered you both less than 30 minutes ago, and I love your reactions! I watched your reactions to REN first, and immediately subscribed. You are an amazingly beautiful couple, and so in tune with music and it’s purpose of touching our souls. I absolutely love you guys! 🙌🏽🎶☀️ Thank you for sharing your insight and love.. peace and love from Maui 🙏🏽
one of his great songs is "Mathew"
Can you guys tell❤ biscuit she's A very beautiful girl From your country and Romania. You guys speak to her in Romanian. And try to.
Convince her. To listen to John Denver. She gets more comments than anyone. Because of the obvious. She's beautiful. And they've got her listening to a lot of modern. Music. She just doesn't know. How amazing John Denver is. Maybe even tell her where you got this video from with the mountains and all the Scenery. I think john denver is a blessing from god❤😊
Legend!!!
I lived in Romania for a while and married a Romanian Woman. I think Romania is a very beautiful Country. Foarte Frumos.
After John's divorce from 1st wife Annie, he went through a metamorphosis, and looked deeply into himself, emerging the person we've come to know before his death. The Rocky mountains were his "life" and dedicated most of his time to protecting until his death.
Truth, Beauty & Goidness always touch the heart somehow.
Oddly in America which is so diverse in its beauty from Coasts to Great Lakes, Mountains, deserts & plains we often look at Europe with the old architecture, the Alps, Austria, Switzerland, the Provence, and rural Poland, Romania, ect seems like heaven to us(me at keast). Cheers. Hope you get outside to enjoy & maybe visit the U.S. some day. Have a glass of wine at a vineyard aling the Finger Lakes in the Autum. Salute!
God bless AMERICA AND Colorado!!!
I really like yall, old school values it seems
The most beautiful place I ever went was the Rocky Mountains. Ohio, where I live, has some beautiful places but something about the Rockies just made me feel so close to Creation. Thanks for this one guys. Peace and love.
Oh my goodness! I hope you DO come visit! If you fly to a nearby airport, I'll join the other throngs of fans that will be sure to greet you.
John’s music provided him the platform for his work as an environmentalist. A national treasure!
I am new to your channel, but another environmental song, written about Hawaii, is BIG YELLOW TAXI by Joni Mitchell, another American Treasure. It is short and lighthearted, but one of the first environmental songs I remember.
A great review, you should make it a priority to visit the countryside and nature while we still have some left.
My wife and I were lucky enough to visit the Rockies in 2019, we live in England and when I close my eyes I can still see those beautiful images.
NOOOOO!!!!! if you're going to do John Denver, you H A V E to do "Hi Calypso" ! That song always make my heart swell, but cry at the same time. And such a beautiful video starring the legend, Jacques Cousteau of course 🙏🙏🙏
my faves are this old guitar and annies song
Grandmas Feather Bed....Thank God im a Country boy!!! John Denver treasures!
The first picture you stopped at is of Pike's Peak, I think. You're right. There's so many beautiful places in the U. S. A.
Other songs - Poems , Prayers , Promises. Eagle and The Hawk. Country Roads Take Me Home. There's probably more that I can't think of right now - but you can't go wrong with any of his songs.
More please ❤
The lake in the picture is Mirror Lake in Colorado. It's very real. I love living here. Please listen to John Denver's song Poems Prayers and Promises.
Oh God! a 1977 movie starring John Denver and George Burns is also worth looking at. I believe that you would enjoy it.
My older brother was a huge fan of John Denver. He was a big fan of the outdoors, where he could find peace in nature from his troubled soul. Unfortunately he succumbed to his demons and killed himself over some stupid non- event 25 years ago. Any John Denver song brings back his quirky personality and big smile.
Indeed, this is John's ode to the magnificent Rockies. Though, if one drops a candy wrapper there, it's possible a bear will come to investigate. Throw rubbish at one's own risk. Thanks for your reaction.
Hello from Colorado !
Ever state is special 50 gems ❤
I so wish u two can come to the states and visit Colorado!!!
Great song choice..great reaction/review!
Oh it's real. It's actually hard to believe when you standing there looking at it. There's a lot of places in America like that. Tell you see it you can't believe it. William s
You probably should listen to Denver's song about West Virginia now: Take Me Home, Country Roads.
Come on over guys. The views will never change.
Henry John Deutchendorf Jr, his parents were German, his father its said was a fighter pilot for the USA in the 2nd world war...
He was the best thing since sliced bread in the 70s, I think the highest earner, he had his own TV show.
Then his popularity dwindled RCA dropped him, he started drinking had 2 DUIs and crashed into the sea in his Long Eze experimental Kit plane which he'd just bought, he was 56....
Beutiful. 😊.
Tip; Jonna Jinton (Swedish) sings the national anthem ("Du gamla du fria") in her own way. Beautiful view/ northern Sweden. 🇸🇪
one has to intentionally make time to stop & appreciate the beauty of nature.
I've learned, maybe a bit late, that one must make the time to appreciate life...through nature, family, just life.
Make some time. The chore will be there when you get back, and the world won't end because you put it aside for a little while.
You should come visit the US. Colorado alone, even just driving through it, is 1000% more beautiful than even those photos
❤😊
If you haven’t already John Denver Country Roads is a good listen.
