John Denver was a singing poet, do you agree? I have a book of all his song lyrics, one of the best poetry reads around! Example: Annie's Song You fill up my senses Like a night in the forest Like the mountains in springtime Like a walk in the rain Like a storm in the desert Like a sleepy blue ocean You fill up my senses Come fill me again Come let me love you Let me give my life to you Let me drown in your laughter Let me die in your arms Let me lay down beside you Let me always be with you Come let me love you Come love me again Let me give my life to you Come let me love you Come love me again You fill up my senses Like a night in the forest Like the mountains in springtime Like a walk in the rain Like a storm in the desert Like a sleepy blue ocean You fill up my senses Come fill me again to hear: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkGS263lGsQ&feature=related What are YOUR favorite Denver lyrics, the most poetic to you?

Song title from about 20 years ago possibly sung by John Denver.? Can anyone please tell me the name of the song and the singer, (I think it might be John Denver) whereby in the lyrics he is saying words to the effect of 'let me show you places that I've been'. I can't for the life of me think of the title. Many thanks in advance. Little Ba. This is just what i wanted thanks. But how do I make you the 'star' answe? I can see anything to click, or do I have to wait for the three days? anyway, many thanks.
Cotton Eyed Joe by John Denver? So I've had this song playing over and over in my head and it is the lyrics of Cotton Eyed Joe, and I could have sworn that John Denver sang a version of it. However with endless Googling I have been unable to track it down. I'm being lead to the conclusion that it does not exist, or that it is by a different artist.

John Denver's plant a tree song.? I'm trying to find lyrics for one of his songs, it had the words "plant a tree for your tomorrow". I believe I saw and heard it on an Arbor Day commercial. I've been looking high and low but no luck. I've tried the Arbor Day website. I've even looked on the website lyricsmode.com and I still can't find it. Does anybody know the song title and what website it might be on?
Maybe JOHN DENVER, had it right, all along? In his Lyrics, "A Song For All Lovers". I see the very center of what a lasting Relationship should be like. See if you agree. He wrote: "Imagine the morning; No longer alone. The arms of another; A Place to belong. No Longer the struggle; No longer the night. And ever becoming, in the quickening light. To see in the darkness; To listen within. To answer in kindness; To ever begin. To ever be gentle; To always be strong. To walk in the Wonder; To live in the Song". For those that have been Married for a great many years. You see this in your everyday life. I feel like this is the way to have a successful Relationship. Far too many couples, go about their Marriage for the wrong reason. Is these words, the way to look at your relationship? How many of these statements. Are a part of that Love? Which ones would you need to work on? Yes! This is about Relationships. But it's also about the Music of John Denver. I hope you enjoy it. Dog! But I'm not Married. I lived by these Rules. she didn't! LOL
This old John Denver song (For the musically inclined or have some background in music)? Please help. I was wondering about this old song he did in D major and I can't remember the lyrics to save my life, nor do I know the actual title. I just know I loved this song. The only line I think I do remember from this song is at the end of one of the verses: "...lonely again..." It's in D major, and the chord arrangements are as follows: |G|A|B|G| |D|C#|B|A| |G|F#|E| (lower octave)|G| |A| |G|A|B|G| |D|C#|B|A| |G|F#|E|A| |D-D sus4| Play it on an instrument, (like a keyboard or piano or guitar), if that helps. :P Thanks. Thanks. Conoco, keep me posted. XD Thanks for the link, fugget. Cool site! Right now I got no mike. My dad has it currently. Gotta borrow it back...XD
excavate and analyze the song PERHAPS LOVE by John Denver? any figurative language or musical devices (repetition, alliteration, consonance, assonance, simile, metaphors, extended metaphors, imagery, onomatopoeia, oxymorons, allusion, ECT.!) thankssss. :D here are the lyrics: Perhaps love is like a resting place A shelter from the storm It exists to give you comfort It is there to keep you warm And in those times of trouble When you are most alone The memory of love will bring you home Perhaps love is like a window Perhaps an open door It invites you to come close It wants to show you more And even if you lose yourself And dont know what to do The memory of love will see you through Oh, love to some is like a cloud To some as strong as steel For some a way of living For some a way to feel And some say love is holding on And some say letting go And some say love is everything And some say they dont know Perhaps love is like the ocean Full of conflict, full of change Like a fire when its cold outside Or thunder when it rains If I should live forever And all my dreams come true My memories of love will be of you

What is the song that was played on Real World Denver Episode 6 when Jen fell in the bar? On Real World Denver, after Jen faught with Tyrie, Jen is in a bar dancing and drinking and she fell on the dance floor. I googled some of the lyrics I caught and John Lennon keeps popping up, but the song seems more current and harder. So, I am wondering, if that is the song, maybe a different band could have done a cover or something. Thanks for any help!
Canadian Folk Song with the lyrics "Take me home"? I heard the song in a club in Ottawa, Canada. I asked somebody about the song and was told its a Canadian folk song. The only lyrics I can remember is "Take me home". Its a upbeat song that everyone was dancing to. It seemed like everyone in the club knew the song. I know its not the John Denver song.
Letterman plays song when card flies threw window? On the Late Show with David Letterman there is a song they play as a joke whenever he throws a cue card threw the "window" Background set. I think It is a John Denver song. The Lyrics include "flyin, flyin high" I'm aware that is changes/running gag. I've been loving this show since I was 10! I've always loved Dave's type of humor: Will if float? Do you know your cuts of meat? Mujibar and Sarajul, etc. Oh yeah. Old Turkey Buzzard by Jose Feliciano is the correct answer. I have to wait 4 hours though :(

It's really bugging me! I heard it on Absolute radio a little while back.. Its like a country song but a newish one, has country road in it, but its not John Denver - Take me Home Country Roads.

Thanks

Can anyone remember a song from the 1986 Disney movie The Leftovers? You have to have seen this movie to know this since I don't remember any lyrics. From what I remember, the song played at the opening scene where the older orphan girl Jesse (Pamela Adlon) was riding her bike down the street delivering newspapers. It's an "80s" song that I've only heard on the radio once in the past 10 years. It's not something that I've ever found on any 80s compliation and I'm starting to think it never even made the Top 100. The movie was made for TV/Disney Channel. John Denver played the head of some sort of orphanage. It also starred Cindy Williams, Andrea Barber (Kimmy Gibbler from Full House) and Jaleel White.
Does anyone miss the music from the '70s & '80s ? I hate the boring, reptitious hip hop garbage that seems to be loved by both Americans and Europeans. To me, it's like nursery rhymes for babies. When you read the lyrics, there aren't any words or ideas that couldn't come from someone in the sixth grade. It's pathetic. I miss voices like Karen Carpenter. I miss singers who really meant what they sang with all their heart, like John Denver. Luckily, Rush is still going strong. Here is a snipped of Rush lyrics. Compare it with the grade school drivel you hear nowadays from hip hop and rap: We can rise and fall like empires Flow in and out like the tide Be vain and smart, humble and dumb We can hit and miss like pride. We can circle around like hurricanes Dance and dream like lovers Attack the day like birds of prey Or scavengers undercover.
what is this song called?! help please!? it's an older country song, and it goes "rocky mountain.."..."of our fathers" i don't know if those are the EXACT lyrics. it's not Rocky Mountain High by John Denver, but i'm pretty sure it has "rocky mountain" in the chorus. and it's a male singing it. please help!
Anyone happen to know this song? The only lyrics I know are as follows... London, Paris, Rome, I don't wanna do it alone, wish you were here Note: It is not John Denver
70s song bitter man or better man? I am looking for a song, but I am not sure what it is. Sorry not many details to give. Sounds like a 70s slower song. A man sings it. Lyrics are something like "You're a bitter man" or "You're a better man" or "Just a bitter man". It is not the Yardbirds' song. It is more Bread or John Denver-like. Thanks!! No, not Pearl Jam. I would know that.
Take me home by?? I heard a song on CMT Pure a few minutes ago and really liked it, but I didn't catch the singer's name. It's a song with the lyrics "Take me home, home, home home." It's not John Denver. It's a young male, blonde hair with a very rough voice. His voice doesn't match his age and that's why I liked it. Also, in the song, he sings about him, his daddy and some boy named ____ (I forgot lol). The song has a bluesy feel. Part of the video takes place on a bus and the rest is on a porch. Thanks!
why can't i tell and share my personalities? i personally copy lyrics of songs onto note book paper then try to practice . in one day i know the whole song and memorize it. i learned: LONGER by Dan Fogelberg, SUNSHINE ON MY SHOULDERS by John Denver, and BELIEVE by Josh Groban. are songs i memorized. OKAY her is my question.............. why can't i share other people about myself, am i shy? am i nervous I'll get laughed at? please tell me. i need help. P.S. please read before going to the end.
What do you think? What kind of instrument do you think would best suit me? I cannot read music, but I have a very good ear and learn quickly. The last instrument I played, aside from goofing around at a piano and playing with an old guitar, was the recorder in 4th grade. I do not want to play the guitar because I think that is very much overdone, and I do not want to play the drums because I think percussion usually detracts from the music. I really do not want to play the piano. I cannot sing or dance, but I can write lyrics, and I am moderately good at composing tunes. My favourite artists include Harry Chapin, Gordon Lightfoot, Simon & Garfunkel, Patsy Cline, John Denver, and John Tzinieris. I like all music as long as it isn't poppy or hate-filled. I'm looking for something unique, but not so unique that it's overdone. I don't want to be the next big star, just be able to do something fun for myself and my friends, and maybe, maybe a band at some point in the future. I was thinking of playing the fiddle or violin, but I don't know.
The Perfect Song for my video? Hi.. as some of you may know from my previous posts, For a class project (summer class on video production) I am making a tribute video honoring many many singers who have died too soon. People like Karen Carpenter, John Lennon, Buddy Holly,Richie Valens, Hank Williams, some members of Lynard Skynard who died in a plane crash, Janis Joplin, Elvis.. etc etc.. (Had a list of 67, narrowed it down to 45 of the best) Anyway.. what song would be a perfect background to the images and stories of these great artists? Here are some I've been toying with Karen Carpenter- "A song for you" ("when my life is over, remember when we were together.. we were alone and I was singing this song for you") John Denver - "The wings of a dream" ("Why is it thus we are here and so soon we are gone") Don McClean- "The Day the Music died" (Tells the story of Buddy Holly's plane crash and the next 10 years of music history. GREAT song, keeps repeating lyrics "The day the music died" BUt possibly overused? I'm looking for the perfect song so any suggestions will be welcome. A Youtube link where I can hear the whole song would be excellent as well. It would be awesome if the song was done by one of the artists that died young, but that is not a requirement (if it's the perfect song). I was thinking of titling the video "Unfinished song" or something with the idea of a song being too short. Oh.. one more I was toying with Karen Carpenter "at the end of a song" ("At the end of a song, there's no one.. after the last note is played.. only the memory stays and even that fades away..") I LOVE KC's voice, but I'm not SURE that her style of music is what I want for the background.
Jesus the hippie? Would jesus have rocked out to the mamas and papas, guess who, csny, ccr, the beatles, the hollies, grass roots, john denver, jim croce, james taylor, joe cocker, bob marley, or bob dylan if he was around in the 60's and which group you think would have been his favoite? Include song/lyrics Theres more bands i know..add the ones i missed ..too many to list I think he would have loved southern cross by crosby stills nash young
Why do so many people hate Country Music when a lot of Pop music is surely worse !?? People really think Country is worse than Pop? Theres only so many times I can stand to hear Mariah Carey's screaming or some band like Panic at The Disco write lyrics that a 5 year old could write. I really wish people would OPEN THEIR MINDS because Country is not all about pick up trucks or drinking or cheating. The best vocalists in the world were in Country Music- which includes John Denver, Elvis Presley, Patsy Cline, Marty Robbins, Jim Reeves, and countless others I prefer Alt-Country /Americana like Neko Case and Ryan Adams and The Old 97s. But really Country is not any worse than Pop music! It actually requires talent. Yes Pop Music does require talent, but a lot of Pop singers dont even write their own songs or play multiple instruments. Most Country musicians play several instruments and write their own songs based on their personal life experiences. Some Country singers overdo their accents- and I dont like that either. Many in the old days did not. Besides, everyone has accents. Wow COUNTRY singers do not all sound the same. Maybe today's Country singers do. Johnny Cash sounded nothing like Jim Reeves. Patsy Cline sounded nothing like Loretta Lynn. There is tons of variety in Country. In fact its as diverse as Rock and Pop if not more.. It is NOT all the same. There are Lord knows how any sub genres of Country Music and none of it is the same. Its similar enough to be called Country- but Country Music encompasses a BROAD variety of music. I cant believe people are that ignorant about Country Music.
Will Rene Miller sing the Black National Anthem if Obama is elected? A jazz singer shocked some Denver residents after replacing the words to the national anthem with those of the "Black National Anthem" during the annual State of the City address this week. Rene Marie was asked to sing "The Star-Spangled Banner" before Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper delivered the annual address on Tuesday. Instead, she sang the lyrics of "Lift Every Voice and Sing" — a hymn commonly referred to as the "Black National Anthem" — to the tune of the national anthem, MyFOXColorado.com reported. Obama said if this national anthem is sung instead he will place his hand over his heart this time. http://www.watchfreeepisodes.com/black-national-anthem-rene-marie-video-from-denver-singing-lift-every-voice-and-sing-negro/802/
