    decent, pure, handsome, dignified, intelligent, full of empathy, environmentalist, peace keeper, talented and a true showman.. but he also mastered the art of staying in our hearts forever - who's still here April 2019

    When we lost John Denver, we lost a wonderfully gifted, talented musician who brought beautiful music into our lives. I love his music which always has beautiful messages. He has touched the hearts and lives of many people. His memory and music will live on forever.

    John’s music got me through ten years of a dead end marriage. The honesty and depth of the music he wrote still stirs my soul. Now I have been with my soulmate for 33 years and John Denver music is never very far away. Thanks John, and wherever you are I hope your days are filled with sunshine and rippling waters….

    John was so clean cut, but in a way that I have not seen any other artist be able to be. Why Don't people understand that is people like this and music like this that makes the world a better place, not loud disturbing, disruptive music, with people who screw up their lives. John was a gift and this is his song.

    My mom passed away very recently, and tonight I was talking out loud in my room hoping she could hear me. I lit her favorite scent of candle and told her it could be her guiding light to come see me in my dreams. I had UA-cam open, but the song before had finished playing a long time before I started talking to her. Then when I was crying at the end of talking to her this song started playing. It's my first time hearing it, and I believe she played it to tell me the dark times won't be around forever and to tell me how much she loves me. This song now means the absolute world to me.

When he wanted to he could CRANK IT UP and just blow you away!!!!!! He hardly needed the PA, and I'm not kidding! Just an INCREDIBLE talent, as a performer AND especially as a songwriter. Miss him every day.
    RIP John

    John your music is deeply embedded in my soul. This song is such a gift to me. When John sings remember your darkest hour with dawn so far away, remember the way you longed for mornings light... Several years ago my wife was critically ill with Wilsons diseases and in need of a liver transplant. In the end she was not expected to make it for more than a day or two. Then the gift came at the last minute because of a selfless young lady. We truly are each a gift.

    I have been a fan of John Denver for many years and I never knew of this song. It is beautiful and a true testament of the love between my husband Frederick and I. We were married on December 24, 1988 and we always told each other that we were the best gift we ever gave each other. Frederick died April 9, 2017 and he would have absolutely loved this song. His memory will always be my forever gift.

    John Denver was more than a part of my generation, he was a voice of hope in a mixed up world.His beautiful songs with lyrics that spoke from the heart touched me then, as they still do now. The loss of him to us pales in comparison to the loss to his family. I am a man who has to admit I have never been so moved by a performer . John and his music will always hold a place in my life.

I am still as Moved by his music, lyrics and Spirit today at 62 as I was at 17 when I travelled across this great continent playing & singing his music to anyone, anywhere! He was a gift so rare and powerful, and perhaps most significantly, in particular when he would remind us ALL of our own gifts! Take that with you when you walk out of the door next, and experience the changes when you walk down the street knowing that John Denver himself referred to you as a gift to humanity as rich, powerful and necessary as himself... RIP John...

    It is hard to believe it has been 13 years since the day we lost this wonderful man; a gift to us for so many years. I still tear up listening to his beautiful voice. I lost my husband that same year, so 1997 was a tough year for me. I miss my husband so much, and I hope that John is singing to all that have lost love ones.
    Rest my dear. I miss you John.

    I want to thank you for sharing this video. I am a huge John Denver fan, I have been since he first came on the scene. I'm having a John Denver day today and he was truly becoming such a brilliant musician when he was taken from us. Not to say he wasn't always brilliant... But I knew he had so much more to give and he was giving so much. I miss him so much and I am so grateful that we can share his loss together. RIP DEAR JOHNNY ..... 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎻🎶

    This man, his music, heart and soul, is why I am who I am. His music formed my personality for which I am honored. I saw him in concert many times throughout my life and there wasn't a day in my youth that his music wasn't playing on my, lol, record player. He will always be the air that I breathe.

    John Denver was a very special, exceptionally talented writer, and singer with very unique range. He also was the best live performer I've ever witnessed; you had to drag him off the stage kicking and screaming when the show was over (lol), he loved to sing!

    Hard to believe it's almost been 20 years since the world lost this great talent . I still enjoy listening to him . Loved the songs he sang . They had heart and meaning and he sang them with that too . He is and always will be missed by all his fans that loved him .

    As far as I'm concerned John Denver always under estimated him self when it came to writing his songs. John called 'Healing Time On Earth' a work in progress. He couldn't of been further from the truth. It is really a BRILLIANT song. John's aways said he never knew where his songs came from. well, he must of had 'Healing Time On Earth' hovering over him. Seeing the look on his face as he sings a new song to the audience has always excited me
