Nothing is more beautiful than this song when you're driving your car singing with your family😊

John Denver was an American treasure. He was the real deal. 🙂

John Denver was always one of those singers/songwriters everyone liked, even if his type of music wasn't really their thing. So much talent, so many hit songs. I'd bet if he was still with us, he'd be making music just as great as in the past.

Anyone from a "rural" area is touched by this song.

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 "Thank God I'm A Country Boy", "Grandma's Feather Bed", "Fly Away", "Leaving On A Jet Plane", "Back Home Again", "Poems, Prayers & Promises", "Calypso" 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. Home Free does an awesome version of "Take Me Home, Country Roads". Hope you will check it out.

Another favorite of mine. His voice just soars and his songwriting abilities were so unique.

His great clear voice is so special in all of his beautiful songs.

It certainly IS an amazing song. It touches us to the heart.

After every West Virginia college football team home game win the whole crowd sings this song and it is amazing!

The version /cover of this song in the Studio Ghibli film "whisper of the heart" is beautiful, not to mention the film itself is magical😊

I've always loved John Denver's music. This is a beautiful song. I just discovered your reaction videos tonight and they are my favorites.

Rest in peace with Jesus John 💟✝️🙏

John was as big as the Beetles in his day. Huge songwriter and performer. World is blessed to have his songs! Been a follower of his for 40 years.

Gorgeous song!! So nice to watch you enjoy this😊

What a great Musician he was i always think of home and summer days when i listen to this one👍👍

He had one of the purest voices out there! There is not one of his songs that you would not enjoy.

😊 I'm a truck driver actually in West Virginia with a delivery tomorrow. Beautiful state, especially this time of the year. All the best to you.

I've never met anyone that can sit through this song without singing along.

Lovely reaction! This song nearly always brings a teardrop to my eye.

It is pretty amazing when you realize that John Denver wrote songs that have become the State Songs of two states: West Virginia and Colorado!

I was lucky enough to go see him in concert here in corpus Christi Texas before his untimely death may god rest soul

This is one of the official songs adopted by the State of West Virginia. It may not be the law, but it would be UNTHINKABLE for a WV bar not to have this song on its jukebox!

John Denver was one of a kind! He gave us a true gift!!!

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I live wv this song does this to people all over the world and people know this song all over the world

My dad was born in Elwood city, Pennsylvania, but grew up in Wheeling, West Virginia and was a die-hard Mountaineers fan and watched a lot of their games and every time this song would play on the radio me and him would always sing along to it. He sadly passed away on August 31st 2021. Rest in peace dad.

Pure joy watching your wonderful reaction!

The ultimate nostalgia song! Pure bliss!!

Love your reaction! KEEP ON SMILING!!

I was 8 years old when this came out, loved it then and love it now at 60 😊

Your reactions are a joy! Thank you.

An jedem Lagerfeuer wird dieses Lied gespielt,seit 50 Jahren.

Ha! I just moved to a rural part of West Virginia 3 weeks ago.

Makes a true West Virginian proud that you loved our state song

West Virginia is mostly mountainous. And one can find moonshine here and there.

I live in Ohio. West Virginia is gorgeous!

You must react to Calypso!!! It's an amazing song, as are all of John's. Love your reactions! (from Lise Hull)

Beautiful woman, beautiful song, great reaction. Just complete. Sarah, listen to this song performed by Geoff Castellucci, believe me, it's worth it

The music critics consistently panned John Denver in their reviews, but usually they would end their bad review by saying "but the audience seemed to really enjoy the concert, from start to finish!"

Now listen to "Rocky Mountain High", also by John .

One of his CD's is titled, John Denver: A Song's Best Friend, alluding to his voice being a perfect vehicle for telling stories.

I've never been in West Virginia, for some reason though, I'm feeling homesick for this place...

Sarah, do you see that title song on the album? "Poems, Prayers & Promises"? (Trust me.) 🙂

You should definitely visit West Virginia, rent a side by side, probably a guide for your first time which is pretty cheap, and ride the Hatfield and McCoy trails. It's beautiful and lots of fun. It's beautiful scenery and a total blast!

The anthem for every service MSN and woman stationed overseas and everyone stationed so very long away grom home

Please try "Matthew: and "Perhaps Love" by John Denver. I think you would like them a lot.

greetings girl from Uruguay 🇺🇾 great ✌️😊

You'ew sounding good there, Sarah.

I really like his duets with Olivia Newton John, who you should also do some reactions to. Please Mr Please is a good one from her.

Hi Sarah. Listen to a song called "Where you want to be" by Darren Hayes. He used to be the singer in a band called Savage Garden. Beautiful song.

Try a listen to Lee Marvin singing “Wandering Star” from the movie “Paint Your Wagon” ,now that’s a voice you’ll never forget.

for another country masterpiece, look for "CITY OF NEW ORLEANS", in the version of Steve Goodman 4/18/1976 - Capitol Theatre - Passaic, NJ

Nice reaction! Thanks! I know you've done several Geoff Castellucci and VoicePlay videos before. Geoff does a wonderful cover of this song you should check it out :)

West Virginia's state anthem. Do you know your state anthem? I live in Alaska. We have an anthem too. What are yours? Would love to hear them. Most folks forgot, every state has an anthem. A state bird, a flag, a chosen animal, and a flower. Do you know your's?

In kingsman .no.2 I think.....

Check out Craig Morgan ( That's What I Love About Sunday ) ❤❤❤❤ your newness to American music.

A ittle history of this song. John Denver did not write the song. The song was written by Bill Danoff and Taffy Nivett., Denver did contribute some changes. Taffy was born in Washington DC. They were married and driving on Clopper Rd in Montgomery County Maryland when the inspiration for the song came to them. I live just a few miles from Clopper Rd. Today there is a lot of development but back then it was very rural. Maryland did not fit in the lyrics so they used West Virginia.

Love John Denver. He reminds me so much of Dan Fogelberg. By the way, when are we going to get more reactions to him? You really need to check out his song called Longer.
