I really hope I go first the pain would be too much to bear, I'd drink myself to death 😢 I hope you men find something to live on for. Remember the old Irish saying "Don't be sad im gone, be happy i was here"
I lost my wife to cancer a few years ago, and this is just one of many songs that God put in my path to help me cope. The funny thing is, while I like John Denver, I've never been a HUGE fan...but this one really hits home.
I lost my darling sister Anne suddenly. I loved her much and I hope Anne is with Mam and Dad. I,am lost and heartbroken Anne loved John Denver so this is for Anne this for you.
Lost my wife 10 months ago to cancer age 50 just. Married 25years together 30years. Was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer last May lasted 4 months. This song sums it all up
So sorry. My partner of 20 years passed away in 2022 from 2 brain tumours and lung cancer. He didn't tell anyone. He was only here 3 months after I think he was diagnosed. I've never heard this song before. Just been on radio. What a gem
He was a good songwriter! He does't happen to have written this one, though; Deena Kaye Rose wrote it about "her struggles with gender identity prior to her own coming out as a transgender woman" (from wikipedia, which here is paraphrasing an interview that I have not personally read/watched)
My Dad requested this song to be played at his funeral....We did, one of John Denver's cassette albums...It reflected my Dad's days, when his health went bad (bad heart, diabetes, & Mesothelioma).....RIP, Dad (Aug. 17, 1931 - Apr. 1, 2003).
The voice of America the voice of country music the voice of pure heaven its hard to listen to that voice without breaking down in tears but what a treasure he was RIP voice it is impossible to forget you
My friend Fi and I have been friends for 50 years this December and her mum was considered my rent a mother. When her mum.died, Fi played this at her funeral as it was mum's favourite JD song. I shed a tear every time I hear it. Miss you rent-a-mummy. 2nd best mother I could have ever wished for xx❤
This song sort of describes my life. The face that I see in the mirror, more and more is a stranger to me, more and more I see there’s a danger, in becoming who I never thought I’d be. Yeah.
I only came across this song recently;- but I've always loved his Music! 🕯️I also liked Midnight Radio;- and the rest is History;- but may he rest in-peace, as I heard about his Fate;- and I was Sad 🕯️ to hear about it!
As did my mom. He came into ther restaurant/tavern where she was employed in Missoula MT. A very good friend had taken a nosedive into one of our mountains & was in the hospital. He spoke w her, gave her his autograph for me. Still have it still& always will listen. He could sing w ANYONE. Rare gift. Blessed heart. So missed.
Listening to John Denver sing his amazing songs always touches me deep in my soul and often brings me to tears. The lyrics, the tune, the tone of his voice brings such a longing in me for something better and good. Miss this special man and his gift of music which was so much more than that.
What a great song. It says it all...! My passion is Trad Jazz but I love a wide range of music from rock n roll music of the 50's to the 60's and 70's loved the songs of John Denver and that era or music was fantastic..Nothing today compares. What a loss to the music industry. This song in particular is very poignent.
I love these songs of all time, that's why I listen to them alot. This was the best music of all time. This is better than the new stuff of now. Really I never ever liked rap music.
Use to drive past his house in Colorado on my way to visit friends in Evergreen Co. Never got to meet the man but loved his music from the very first time I heard him sing, and will always be a fan. His time in this life was way too short.
When music was music, when country singers sang from the heart. Dam good song, like George Jones said, WHO'S GONNA FILL THEIR SHOES THEY WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER.. RIP JOHN DENVER..
What kind of moron gives this great music a thumbs down?!? Thanks John... RIP Brother 🙏💔 😢 If I'm lucky enough to get to Heaven, I hope you will shake my hand!!!
+Phil Holloway There are different kinds of morons? To answer your question, I have met people that are into “metal” that claim not to be able to handle John Denver’s music. For me John’s songs brought a feeling of friendship and even being home while the song played. I love his music.
@@AIvey this was used in Logan Lucky (2017) that's where i found the song actually. Movie with Daniel Craig, Adam Driver, Channing Tatum. Love the movie personally!
Hard to hear about other peoples hard times. I often think that it might help others to just show some kind of love or compassion. So that I do... Hoping that I could point towards where there are rays of light.
When you asked how I've been here without you I'd like to say I've been fine and I do But we both know the truth is hard to come by And if I told the truth that's not quite true Some days are diamonds, some days are stones Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones Some days are diamonds, some days are stones Now the face that I see in my mirror More and more is a stranger to me More and more I can see there's a danger In becoming what I never thought I'd be Some days are diamonds, some days are stones Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones Some days are diamonds, some days are stones Some days are diamonds, some days are stones Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone But sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones Some days are diamonds, some days are stones Some days are diamonds, some days are stones Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
John Denver ever more deserves to be in heaven. Thank you for everything you did john. rest in peace. dead serious im super confused why this doesn't have more views
John Denver was my mum's favourite singer. We grew up listening to him and he become our favourite singer. I could listen to that beautiful voice all day. Definitely a favourite of mine. 😊.
I grow up with country music, because my father always plays this music when we had something to celebrate. And I still love this kind of music! And also this song, I love it.
I listen to this stuff all the time, because this was the best music of all time. This stuff never ever gets old. I'm telling you that this better than the newer stuff of now.
I miss John and often wonder what he'd think about this crazy world. He sang of simpler times his music is timeless. I Love You John. Can't wait to sing with you when we meet.
I knew this song back when i was 7 years old from my Papa, this is his favorite one of john denver' songs, and the last day of his life, at ICU, filled with life support, at his age of 77 years old, i touched him, kissed him, and whispered to his ears.....Pa, SOMEDAYS ARE DIAMONDS, SOMEDAYS ARE STONES....I love you Pa, all the best for you😪😔
I have loved this man since the first time I heard him when I was ten. His music led me to backpacking, skiing, river running, the Rockie mountains, Alaska. I'm 63 now and I miss his music. I was lucky enough to see him in concert three times. Never forget him and his wonderful voice. Even learned to play guitar and banjo because of him.
John will be missed by all the people who has a great Love 💖 of Country Music. I was Fortunate Enough to see him Live and he thrilled that Audience with not just his Music , but John had a great sense of Humour and he made you Laugh with stories about his Life. You will be Missed Always by so many People .God Bless 💓 You Forever.Angela Arnold.🌹
Sure was one of the Greats!!! This Song, Some Days Are Diamonds Some Days are Stone... Defenitly My Favourite !!! Loved All His Music and One of a Kind Voice 😊 Always and Forever 🙏 Rest Easy John Denver ❤❤❤
I,m hearing you my condolences May your son rest in peace to you and your family ...🦋 Lost our daughter 2010 It,s a day at a time . Have the best week possible

I lost my wife of 53 years this is a memorable song. Struggling but getting though it.
I lost my wife also of 59 years. It is a struggle but I will endure. John Denver' s music brings back fond memories.
So sorry for your loss of your life partner. JD's songs are a suave for the soul.
Your not on your own Peter I lost my wife after 55 years look after yourself
Lost my dad and this was one of his favorite songs fond memories indeed
I really hope I go first the pain would be too much to bear, I'd drink myself to death 😢 I hope you men find something to live on for. Remember the old Irish saying "Don't be sad im gone, be happy i was here"

The stone days seem to never end as you get older
Younger days were all diamonds
We thought and maybe your looking at it backwards. Peace
Some stone days are actually diamonds in the rough that have yet to be ground and polished. Grind and polish them all to find that perfect stone.🙂

Lost my wife 10 months ago to cancer age 50 just. Married 25years together 30years. Was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer last May lasted 4 months. This song sums it all up

l been with my boyfriend for 15 yrs.but now i believe he doesn't love me anymore.😢this song gets me right in my heart.
What a loss, compared to todays songwriters he was a genius. RIP.
I really miss him. I first heard him in high school. One of our teachers was a big fan of John Denver and played his music in class. :)
A very talented drunk who flew his plane into the ground
Haters gonna hate.@@francismorgan4206
He was a good songwriter! He does't happen to have written this one, though; Deena Kaye Rose wrote it about "her struggles with gender identity prior to her own coming out as a transgender woman" (from wikipedia, which here is paraphrasing an interview that I have not personally read/watched)
Legend!
Hearing John always makes me happier..he was so talented!!
Wow John makes me sad ... cos he was so sad... and sad songs all but rocky mountain too me
I cried my eyes out when John Denver died. He was one of my favorites.
Every day is stone, but there is always someone who can make it a diamond.

I was fortunate to meet John Denver backstage in the 70's. He was very nice and humble.
As did my mom. He came into ther restaurant/tavern where she was employed in Missoula MT. A very good friend had taken a nosedive into one of our mountains & was in the hospital. He spoke w her, gave her his autograph for me. Still have it still& always will listen. He could sing w ANYONE. Rare gift. Blessed heart. So missed.
Listening to John Denver sing his amazing songs always touches me deep in my soul and often brings me to tears. The lyrics, the tune, the tone of his voice brings such a longing in me for something better and good. Miss this special man and his gift of music which was so much more than that.

Funny how I am also feeling the same… I get this deep longing for something good and it hurts …. He sure had a way of touching hearts with his songs .
God broke the mold, when he made John Denver ! ❤ RIP !
A very philosophical human being..!

My favorite John Denver song
This is a beautiful album and I'm so luck to have had it since it came out.
My favourite he sings, cowboy and the lady, christmas fir cowboys. 👍
Just not the same without you.....
I love these songs of all time, that's why I listen to them alot. This was the best music of all time. This is better than the new stuff of now. Really I never ever liked rap music.
Thanks
I hate rap. I always did and I always will.
This stuff never ever gets old
John Denver’s song Some day are diamonds describes millions of us of what we go through in life.
Great talent for writing and singing. His songs are still played worldwide.
Use to drive past his house in Colorado on my way to visit friends in Evergreen Co. Never got to meet the man but loved his music from the very first time I heard him sing, and will always be a fan. His time in this life was way too short.
When music was music, when country singers sang from the heart. Dam good song, like George Jones said, WHO'S GONNA FILL THEIR SHOES THEY WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER.. RIP JOHN DENVER..
Except John Denver was in the category of FOLK... not country, so he got played on Country (Yetch!) and rock stations!
What kind of moron gives this great music a thumbs down?!? Thanks John... RIP Brother 🙏💔 😢 If I'm lucky enough to get to Heaven, I hope you will shake my hand!!!
Only a heartless jerk does that! He was an amazing person!

now 21 years you've been gone and my heart still cries
Let's make it 22 now. ,-, _ ,-,
😔 not real -can’t believe it’s been that long-too surreal 😭 A very missed performer indeed! Your music and incredible voice live on ❤️ JD
Mine does to
My goodness it's been 21 yrs ago. Where did it all go
He was amazing this song helps me get thru so tough times
Lost my husband of 42 years last July. Can't get past it, so here i am listening to this. All the days since have been stone.
I have just lost my partner of 30 years and one must look for the little twinkles amongst the stones - they are there.
God bless you, honey.
@@heididaniel-mg5ts May God grant you peace.
I wish we could have had him longer, but I am so thankful we had him! Still miss him.❤
this is my favorite John Denver song. I still remember exactly where I was the first time I heard it on the radio.
I was only 9 when this song played, and I still remember it well.
And where praytell was that, exactly? Lol 😂😅
He was truly one of a kind. I love his music and this is one of my favorites.
His music helps me get through this life whenever I'm having bad dog days play John's music it keeps me sane thank you
LEGEND 🎸🕺
It would be glad they use his music in 🍿 movie just change thing up......
@@AIvey this was used in Logan Lucky (2017) that's where i found the song actually. Movie with Daniel Craig, Adam Driver, Channing Tatum. Love the movie personally!
Hard to hear about other peoples hard times. I often think that it might help others to just show some kind of love or compassion. So that I do... Hoping that I could point towards where there are rays of light.
Well said ...
i think this album is way underrated. Great production and great song work by John and crew. His voice is in great shape here.
When you asked how I've been here without you
I'd like to say I've been fine and I do
But we both know the truth is hard to come by
And if I told the truth that's not quite true
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Now the face that I see in my mirror
More and more is a stranger to me
More and more I can see there's a danger
In becoming what I never thought I'd be
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
But sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
Hall of fame now
Anyone struggling with alcoholism will understand this song Beautiful classic
One of my theme song...means a lot to me ...fuel to my fire 🔥 keep the fire burning and light up my world..thank you MrJohn ❤😊😮😢Denver
