My dad is from West Virginia, so we are all quite familiar with this tune. Nothing more ethereal than driving through West Virginia while listening to this song, something I've done many times.
@@Amara-e5t what? Comment not meant to be funny, yours - rather puzzling. Guess my assumption that everyone has the same comprehension level is mistaken.
Always brings tears to my eyes. My Mother's family was from Clarksburg W VA and they were the most family centered and loving people you could ever know. Italian Americans who were so country. Love all around. I was just a little guy but that love still is still with me to this day. They're all gone but they'll always have a place in heart forever. Fishing trips to the river with my Uncle, nights at Rosie's deli with the WHOLE family, like 40 people, kids running around and so much food. I was so lucky and blessed. So very fortunate. And so, so grateful.
Makes me cry every time my father's absolute favorite, now he's gone and me and my 2 little girls listen at least once a day. RIP daddy we love you down here
After a stroke this mans beautiful music got me through many days and I'm still saddened by his untimely passing. The world is a sadder place without John Denver's soulful soothing music rip sir your music has touched millions.
Y'all come on down for a visit sometime. It'll get ya. Been here my entire life and can't imagine living any place else on this planet. We've had more than our share of problems and that's a fact, but you'll not find better people or a more beautiful state.
I was stationed in Germany with a good ole boy from WV , we listened to John Denver all the time to remind him of home. It never got old, DAM I miss that ole ridge runner 🥲 @@billm9709
Song reminds me of my dad listening to music on the weekends on our floor model stereo speakers. Worked hard, died too effin' early chasing someone else’s dream. Makes me cry every time.
I agre with you West Virginia is a very beautiful state.There is no other state in the union like West Virginia.I am pround to be born in the great state of West Virginia.
My grandma loved this song I remember when it would come on she would always get giddy like how she would when she heard it first come out. Rest in Peace, Sandra. It's been a long year without you.
I live in West Virginia and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else! If you visit our state I suggest visiting the smaller, Mayberry type towns for the best experience 😊.
who else got waves of nostalgia when they said take me home remembering all the golden and unforgettable times in lifetime this kind of country music doesn't only affect us but everyone has flashbacks to childhood, that time you met your cousins you haven't met so long ago it also called back to for example people that you knew that passed away like your dog wanting to take you back to the days, a place you once called home. you will understand soon
Almost heaven West Virginia, blue ridge mountain, Shenandoah river…Oh! how beautiful, you really feel almost heaven passing through…..the blue ridge mountains on our way to New Jersey coming from North Carolina
After having a difficult childhood with parents who treat me lesser and dont respect how god made me i cry every day hoping for them to just treat me equal and how god made me ive been living in depression most of my life they keep me from being myself and I cant deal with it all my hope in this world is to cast my goals into my spirit and become someone great whenever my childhood haunts me i lose hope and fail so whenever i want to do something i set my goal to become great at it and then i will become great at it "take me home country roads to my goals and to god" soon you'll remember me as great....
I love this song. I only learned of it about two or so months ago. A friend of mine was singing it and she is from Kenya. I am from Massachusetts my whole life and I knew of John Denver but never about this song. It is…a moving song for sure…
What i absolutely love about this and what makes it so much more impactful for me is that the general area he’s singing about here is literally where i grew up. I moved to central Missouri in 2013. I miss home.
@masashikishimoto3930 it still is Bayern sell out every game, every season of just Germans and that the very first to be held there with fans all over Europe
this song makes me cry because i sang this with my friends in 3rd grade for a talent show and i miss them so much :( Edit: super late edit I apologize but I just want to thank you all for the support it really means a lot to me 🥲🫶🏻
I was just in Harper's Ferry WV on vacation. There is a pub and grill called Almost Heaven there and you're surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah River converges with the Potomac River. The town embodies this song perfectly. It felt like home to me, I didn't want to leave. I've been there several times. First time I spent a few days there. Usually I took day trips. I highly recommend a trip there.
I am STILL listening to John Denver! When I was pregenent with my last child, I craved his music, my husband thought that was one of the weirdest things he ever heard! At least he didn't have to go out at 3 AM to get me pickles and ice cream at 7/11! LOL!!!
Been working away as a pole dancer . Nothing fancy 5 pounds in the pot type stuff ..but helps to get me through university for my degree in eithics. Anyway was heading home to my aunts in some guys van and he played this and it made me smile because I never listened to country music before and I'm glad he gave me that ride or I wouldn't have heard this song ..when I git there I put it on the you tube and played it a few times and it's so nice
Me and my bandmates in marching band always play this song when we get home from Away Games or Competition Shows. I love them all so much. If anyone in band is reading this, I love you guys more than words can express. I’m proud of you all
This song makes me think of my roommate in college. He was from Osk Hill, West Virginia. Often we’d drive three hours to hang out with his family and friends back in West Virginia. Good memories. However, my best memory is when this good ole’ West Virginia boy led me to the Lord. This Baptist boy shared the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ wherever he went. When I surrendered my life to Christ, it changed everything. I’ll forever be grateful for this dear friend from West Virginia. Though flawed, I am blessed to travel throughout the United States preaching the life changing power of the gospel. For many reading this, to come home is to surrender your life to the Lord Jesus Christ.
I drove through Wheeler, WV when I moved from Sacramento, CA to Pittsburgh, PA, it was beautiful and yes I played this on repeat the whole time I was in West Virginia and I was sad when I made it to PA and had to turn my soundtrack off. The song gets me emotional now, it always has, really, but much more so after that drive. That’s one of my favorite memories, long story as to why exactly, but it’s a good memory. Of all the major cities and small towns I drove through, wheeler was my favorite.

Bring back good memories. West Virginia is a beautiful state. This song stirs thoughts of going home.

This song hits deep because it was played out of the blue at my best friends funeral at 16. One of those things that be with me forever.
