    I love John Denver, he was in his prime when I was coming of age. Every song brings such deep reflective feelings and memories. They even played "Leaving on a Jet Plane" when I graduated from stewardess training in the 70's. All these years later, that song makes me tear up remembering my grandfather pinning on my wings. If you want a beautiful love song, listen to "Annie's Song" John wrote to his then-wife. Thanks for the memories Harry. ☮&❤

    So glad that someone has finally reacted to this beautiful and simple song. I have a special memory associated with this song, but it's not an important memory... its just one of those moments that inexplicably becomes permanently burned into your memory for no apparent reason. It was winter of 73/74 when I was about 14, and I was going up to the mountains with my best friend's family for a long weekend, to play in the snow. The car was quite full with 7 of us and all our gear, so I ended up sitting in the front seat between Diana's mom and dad. It was early morning, and we were driving eastward, into the rising sun. Because it was early, everyone was still pretty quiet and mellow. The sun beating in through the windshield felt so lovely and warm, and it was making the snowy landscape and frosty trees all sparkly. This song, which I'd never heard before, came on the radio. It perfectly matched my mood as well as the general mood in the car. I've always remembered that moment. It is one of the few days that I call "diamond days." Thank you for doing this song. 💜💙

    Sometimes I wonder if my love of the outdoors and nature is in some way attributable to John Denver, and songs like this we had in the house from my earliest memories. Truly beautiful stuff.
    Hated those freezing cold Detroit winters in the 70s though, but this song just made me explode with joy at the coming of spring, they were synonymous to me.

    Lovely reaction, Harry. You're such an empath. Fun fact:John suffered severe depression. This was written on an overcast day in Minneapolis when he was depressed. He started thinking of things that gave him joy and sunshine was one of them. He was surprised how positive the song came out & was a sign that there is always another day.

    There was actually a movie in the 70's called Sunshine on my Shoulders based on this song. I remember the wife had cancer and her husband was caring for her until she passed. It was a real tear-jerker as I recall. I loved the song long before the movie. Miss you John.

    I miss JD. The critics were always harsh to John. "This song is too slow, this song is too that..." Nobody cared what the critics thought. This was his first #1 hit. Everybody loved John when I was growing up. I got to see him live in 1980. I cherish the memory and its even more special to me now.

    One of the sweet songs from my childhood. It instantly evokes the more innocent, simpler times of the 1960s and 70s. John's talent in all facets of music was immense. His voice was the most evocative and unique I've ever heard. Simply beautiful.

    Glad you guys listened to these. When I was young I saw him live in concert. He played guitar himself alone on stage. He is still one of my favorites. He was a good guy, very into the environment. Built a small plane unfortunately crashed it in Monterey CA on the shore. Wonderful talent like a lot of the best never got to get old. All his songs are great.

    I remember being angry, in 6th grade, that this song only made it to #2 on the charts -- it was topped by "Seasons in the Sun" of all things. I was already a huge John Denver fan, and though this wasn't my favorite of his songs I wanted to see him get the recognition he deserved. Or something like that -- my 6th-grade brain wasn't quite fully wired yet.

    John Denver was so popular in the 70s, especially at the environmental studies college I attended. This is one of his most popular. He loved nature and the outdoors and it was often the theme of his songs. You mentioned the strings in the background. Lee Holdridge did a lovely instrumental album of Denver’s songs. You would probably really enjoy it. This song relaxes me 😃

    It's testament to John Denver that he was pretty much the only 'pop star' that my father liked. Born in 1915 and growing up in the pre-rock and roll era, he hated the pop and rock stars of the '60s and '70s. But, to him, John Denver made 'proper' music, with melody, harmony and emotion, and lyrics of an uplifting nature.

    I just looked up a song that his wife Annie said her favorite song he wrote was Perhaps Love. I googled it 1982 Apollo Theatre London. He said it was the best song he had written as well. He had a little background story and sang it. It had me in tears. I highly suggest you react to this version. You won't be disappointed.

    I love your reactions to John’s songs. I feel so blessed to have lived while he was here, filling our lives with his heartfelt songs. I was born the same year John was, and his music became the soundtrack of my life. I saw John in person 16 times over the years and his live concerts were always deeply spiritually moving experiences. Because his music is so emotionally healing, As a therapist I often recommended that my clients “Take two John Denver songs and call me in the morning.” There are three songs that I would recommend you listen to and react to. “The WingsThat Fly Us Home” from his “Spirit” album, and “Poems, Prayers, and Promises” and “For You” both of which are on his live “Wild Life Concert” album done in the mid 90’s. I always enjoyed the way his voice matured as he got older. I know that I can truly say that his “voice in my ear is like heaven to me.”

    I remember Jose Feliciano was on a talk show & jokingly sang, "Sunshine on my shoulders gives me sunburn, Sunshine in my eyes can make me blind..." lol! Joking aside, it's a gorgeous song. One of John's best songs. Check out "Fly away" with Olivia Newton John. I remember they did a TV special together in the 70's & it was great. That song is also beautiful.

    That song is dessert at the end of a beautiful day.

    I always think about the movie "Sunshine", 1973, that tells the story of the lady who inspired this song.

      Oh, I loved that movie! Very under appreciated. Cristina Raines and Cliff DeYoung were favorites for years because of that film.

    The ultimate relaxing experience would be listening to this song while watching the painter Bob Ross paint a beautiful nature scene. ♥️😊

    1st time I heard this song I was in a park on a summers day by the beach in Santa Monica with my high school girlfriend on a beautiful summers day like he wrote that song just for us every time I hear it that perfect moment wraps itself all over me once again cool reaction I think the high he feels is that feeling of complete peace

    This was my mother's favorite song. Growing up I think I heard it over a thousand times. You should see the reactions I get when I play it on jukebox at any bar I go to.

    It was in a movie where the girls name was Sunshine and she died of cancer. It makes me tear-up as my oldest brother died of cancer at about the same time the song came out. Lovely. His voice is pure.
