    No autotune, no lip sync. True artist. What a beautiful song and vocals. Denver is a legend.

      Annie was a classmate of mine at Gustavus Adolphus College. When John came to visit her, I always shot a few rounds of pool with him. He wasn’t very good, so, I won quite a few games with him. A great guy!!!

    Lyrics:
    You fill up my senses
    Like a night in a forest
    Like the mountains in springtime
    Like a walk in the rain
    Like a storm in the desert
    Like a sleepy blue ocean
    You fill up my senses
    Come fill me again
    Come, let me love you
    Let me give my life to you
    Let me drown in your laughter
    Let me die in your arms
    Let me lay down beside you
    Let me always be with you
    Come, let me love you
    Come love me again
    Let me give my life to you
    Come, let me love you
    Come love me again
    You fill up my senses
    Like a night in a forest
    Like the mountains in springtime
    Like a walk in the rain
    Like a storm in the desert
    Like a sleepy blue ocean
    You fill up my senses
    Come fill me again

    This is one of my very favorite versions of Annie’s Song. It showcases how good John’s voice was live, with just him and a twelve string guitar. I was blessed to see John in person 16 times over the years and his live concerts were always deeply spiritual experiences for me. The vibration of unconditional love and compassion in his voice really connected with the audiences. You don’t just listen to John with your ears, you EXPERIENCE him with your entire being, heart and soul.

      always forever we'll end and begin
      there will be magic in a small while
      the music will again bring a smile
      in the meantime we remember
      like the rain in September
      and the fertile moments of grace
      as his music will again fill this space
      I just wrote this little poem for the love of a man who cannot be mistaken for anything other than a beautiful being and there is that in all of us 💓

    Can't even fathom walking out on stage... alone... and performing like that.
    Just to be able to write lyrics, and then the music that brings them to life, is unreal. But then to play the musical instrument AND sing the song, is astounding. And to do it all to perfection.
    Thanks John. We lost so much when we lost you.

      @@davebryant8050I was born the year of your graduation. My dad would play John Denver constantly on road trips across the country. I was only 4 or 5 at the time. Life certainly does have a way of letting you know it is in charge and nothing is guaranteed. Thankful for the small moments, like enjoying good music in good company.

    His voice stayed absolute perfection right up to the end. But the personality and entertainer in him was gone after he and Annie divorced. I think his heart really just went out of it after loosing Annie. He just wasn't quite the same after they split up. But God bless him for having the strength to keep singing and performing for us.

    My mum died 20 years ago and my brother, sister and I were clearing out her house! We looked round her empty bedroom and cried! All that was left was her old radio which was in the middle of the room! Suddenly the radio came on and played this song! When the song finished it went off! My sceptical brother went over to see how this could have happened! It wasn’t plugged in and there were no batteries in it! Our mums name was Annie and we believe she letting know she was still with us! My brother said he wouldn’t have believed it if he wasn’t there! X
