    Welcome to my channel! This is a music reaction channel. For the longest time, I've loved creating content on the internet. I started off with a gaming channel right here on TH-cam, which eventually turned into a Twitch gaming channel, but as time has gone on I've evolved into doing other things on TH-cam. For years now I've wanted to create a music channel on TH-cam, and recently just figured "why not?", so it’s time to give this a go! Give me any suggestion you have for music reactions, and I will do my best to get around to them. As music has fallen further out of my life, I figured this would be a great time to get reintroduced to music.

    This is a very nice live version, but you do owe it to yourself to hear the studio production with the beautiful enhanced strings accompaniment and added reverb on his already emotional and engrossing vocals .
    John Denver seemed like such a beautiful soul that definitely shown through in his music. This is one hell of a love song.
    Check out "Take Me Home Country Roads" by him next.

    12-string picking, and no autotune on the voice. Gorgeous. He had a charmingly warm and goofy personality - a country and western hippie. To quote John: "Faaaar out!" Try his song "Calypso" next, written for environmentalist and documentary-maker Jacques Cousteau.

    John Denver had an incredbly accurate voice pitch-wise, but also a very expressive voice. This one and Take Me Home Country Roads are his best (for me). I also like Calypso. He wrote the big hit for Peter, Paul, and Mary: Leaving On A Jet Plane. John performed a live version of that with Mama Cass Elliott who was one of the best female vocalists ever. That one is amazing.

      The channel Wings of Pegasus does a good analysis of his voice. He does sing slightly flat sometimes, but ever so slightly, and that's what makes his voice so natural. To my ear, he sounds close to perfect. And his vibrato...
      I'm not into this style of music, but this song is magical.

    • @lauraallen55
      @lauraallen55 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@zoeherriot Yes, he does sing slightly flat at times, that's true! I think out ears are expecting things to be a bit flat or sharp here and there when listening to the human voice, in speech or in singing.
      Well, maybe the current generation is being taught to expect robotic perfection in singing now, which is a shame.

      @@lauraallen55 it is a shame, it doesn’t sound natural. Denver’s voice is crazy good though - it’s not even a genre of music I typically listen to, but there is something about his tone that makes me crack out this song regularly.

    John Denver was a great singer-songwriter & actor. He had so many hits in the 70's-80's. Some of his signature songs were "Take Me Home, Country Roads", "Rocky Mountain High", "Poems, Prayers & Promises", "Calypso", "Thank God I'm A Country Boy", "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.

    John Denver is a great singer and song writer. He has loads of fantastic songs and sounds better live than on the studio versions. This song is really good and was written by John on a ski lift in 10-15
    mintues after he had an argument with his wife, but if you want another great love song of his listen to 'For You' live at the same Wildlife Concert. He died far too young and is such a loss to the world.

    John gave us so many great songs! I'm partial to "This Old Guitar" (there's a great live version available on TH-cam), "Matthew," and "For Baby (for Bobby)." I think his original studio recording of "Leaving on a Jet Plane" is the best version out there. If you want some fun stuff, check out his early folk-singer work with the Mitchell Trio in the 1960s. "Your Friendly Liberal Neighborhood KKK," recorded in 1966 (there's a live version of that online, too), still hits hard!

    Annie's parents owned a restaurant near St Peter, MN which is where I went to college. I ate there on a sorority date night event (it was kind of a fancy restaurant). But regarding the song, it was one of the top wedding songs back in the 70s.

    He and "Annie" (his wife) had argued over something simple and stupid, such as the proper way to make a bed. It got pretty angry, and we've all seen this, particularly when the participants are tired. He decided to leave and go skiing ... got on the lift, feeling guilty and wrote this song on the way up.
    The beauty of this man is unbelievable.

    Aw, John Denver is one of a handful of singer/songwriters that have both helped me define my emotional life and inspired me to write. You've covered several of them now, John Denver, Jackson Browne, Jim Croce, Gordon Lightfoot, but one you haven't reacted to yet is Dan Fogelberg. I highly recommend starting with his song called Longer, this one along with the one you just heard, is one of the most beautiful romantic songs I know, or the song Part of the Plan, which is partly responsible for my becoming a poet. With Fogelberg, I suggest stick with studio recordings.
