      I saw a YT analysis of his singing recently which gave me some insight as to why he's so good. He's always on pitch, with a slight, very well controlled vibratro, which he can increase for effect, as he wishes. He's also at one with his songs: perfectly conveying his thoughts and emotions.

    In 1975 I was attending the USMC Officers Infantry School (TBS) at Quantico VA. I'M from Montana, and it was the first time I was that far from home and everyone I loved. I saw John in concert and he took me home for that moment in time. Have loved his music for all these long years, and have prayed that he is in heaven, singing to the LORD! RIP John Denver!

    I was a student at the University of Georgia in 1972 when my roommate convinced me to go see a fellow named John Denver who was to perform on campus. I had no idea who he was, but agreed to tag along to see him. I left the concert stunned at what I had just heard. What a magnificent performance! What a magnificent voice! What wonderful music. I have loved John Denver since that evening. Thanks, roomie, for your insistence on me going!

I felt he expressed in his music what was important to me - I was a part of his tribe. My heart broke at the news of his death. I miss him. I miss his music. The world needs John Denver today.

      I know I’m way late to this conversation but I’ve loved his music since I was a little girl. I’m 56 now and i have a 6 month old granddaughter and every since she could no longer be rocked to peace or sleep (around 1 month of age) I began to carry her around the house and sing Sunshine on my shoulders to her, softly in her ear and it would stop all crying or fussiness and ease her to sleep.. I then began to play it and sing it to her while she needed comforting and to this day no matter how frustrated or upset or fussy she is, I pick her and rock with her around the house and play that beautiful song and she just settles immediately. She loves it. Thank you John, for giving me a real & deep connection with my sweet, precious girl that belongs to only her and I. 🥹♥️

    A truly beautiful song. John's music brought my wife and I together, celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary this year. We managed to see him in concert 5 times, the last was in our home town and we took our three young sons (10, 8 and 5). Met him at the stage door afterwards and he made a fuss of the boys being out so late. I still have a personal letter from him which we treasure.

      I'm sorry to hear that. Sometimes you just have no other choice except letting go. A friend of mine lost her son this February. His death was an indirect consequence of mental illness. He was diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was 16 and institutionalized. When he turned 18, he was transferred into a half-house. A few years later, he was allowed to move into a studio apartment of his own, but he was placed under legal guardianship. Then, one day in late February, a farmer found him dead on a pile of pallets next to a heap of manure. He was wearing nothing but pajamas and one slipper. According to the autopsy, he died from hypothermia. He must have walked at least 200 miles that night, because that was the distance between his place and the farm. It turned out that he hadn't obtained o refill for his medication since October last year. Both he and his mother wanted him to recover instead of dying, but fate does not ask for consent. At least, in death, he's free from his misery.

    I had seen him once in Seattle and enjoyed him. A couple years later had the opportunity to see him again. I was excited. But then before the show started I learned that he would be preforming alone, without his band and thought about leaving figuring that he couldn't possibly entertain. I was wrong. Of all the concerts I have been to over the course of my 65 yrs, this one with just him showing what an absolute talent he was, was the very best. Shortly after I was up late watching Tv and CNN came on with the announcement that he had died in a plane crash. I cried. I cried for his family and I cried that we lost someone who had his own struggles but yet was in so many ways just a pure sole wanting what was best for all. I miss his music to this day.

    I found John's music in college in the sixties. it gave solace, hope and comfort in a decade full of turbulence and uncertainty. My daughter was raised on his music, though it seems none of the love found its way into her heart or life. I treasure the times we sang so many of his songs while we drove many miles together. This song is really how i feel about my wife and the love we share. It's love that's kept us happily together for two decades now and we hope many more. Peace and love to all of you.

I played this song at my husband's funeral after a battle with cancer. Such a beautiful song and very heart rendering. If you are still with us love snd peace to you and my heart goes out to you. No worry or sorrow or pain is all that remains. God loves you.

    I'm not exception, like most, I have an opinion and my opinion is I just listened to one of the greatest songs every written, and performed. Not just the words, but the tune, them melody and all those other song technicalities. And John Denver is the one who sings it best. No apparent effort, it flows from his mouth right to your brain. I thank him for his lasting gift to the world.

      It was in the early 70's that I first heard this man and his music. As a New Zealander it was quite strange for me, so many of my friends mocked this choice of music, but in my heart it expressed what I felt , what I tried to express , to explain me.
      50 years later, I have never found a better way to express myself.
      I don't sing much anymore , not that is no longer important - just that nobody cares anymore -
