John Denver - Rocky Mountain High (REACTION) with my wife

I spent my life and career working for the US National Park Service as a Ranger. These places do exist. I have seen them. Please protect the wilderness, we lose more every day. I have retired now, and my wife of 50 years and together found our own peace.

Watching you today from Denver, Colorado. John Denver and his music are American treasures. I think he is extra special to us in the mountains and high plains.

Denver was a great songwriter, vocalist, guitarist and environmental activist. He is greatly missed.

Hi from America. Colorado is beautiful. God put me in Michigan. A Michigan is also so beautiful. William s

This song by John was about himself. 15 years ago i left New England on Atlantic coast with my two black lab dogs and went to Rocky Mountains for three months and just explored the beauty. My wife encouraged me to finally take the steps and go. Those two beautiful dogs are gone now but the memories are fresh as if were yesterday. Now i have a Siberian husky and she and i explore the White Mountains of New Hampshire making new discoveries and memories., John Denver accompanied us every step of the way to this very moment.

He loved and appreciated natural beauty everywhere on earth. Singing about your own backyard is where you start.

Mountain lakes like that are truly amazing. They are crystal clear. You can see through the water 20-30 feet out. On a trip with my wife and daughter swam in one and the water could be drank right from the lake. So many beautiful places

What a beautiful state and John Denvers voice is amazing 😊

What you were saying about the US having everything is very correct, especially when it comes to scenery etc. Many people from other nations wonder why most Americans do not travel to other countries etc...we just do not need to. We have every form of scenery etc you can ask for right here in America, beautiful forests, gorgeous mountains, deserts, plains, tropical areas you name it we have it right here in America. Even people who love travelling to the huge cities we have those all over and the small rural towns and farming areas for people who like that.

I've been to Colorado, and the Rocky Mountain High is a real thing. Such a beautiful song, and I enjoyed your réaction.

i have made several, multiple several, hikes and camping excursions into various national parks. the thing that i most remember is a sign i saw as we went into the grand canyon for an 8 day hike down into, then along the river, and then back out of the canyon. that sign said.... "take nothing but memories.... leave nothing but footprints." words to live by.

At the age of 27 John Denver wrote this song "Rocky Mountain High in (1972)." It's about his rebirth when he came upon the State of Colorado in the US. What he saw was the beautiful Rocky Mountain Ranges, Lakes, Rivers, Streams and Abundant Wildlife and Fauna. He later would make Colorado his home for the rest of his life until his passing in 1997. You cannot go wrong going down the Rabbitt Hole that is the late great Singer/Songwriter John Denver. Great reaction as always. I am an empath just like your wonderful husband. Peace and love to you both.

You should listen to his “Sunshine on my shoulder”…..beautiful!

I've literally been around the world, and there are so many wonderful places and things to see--and from my experience, the vast majority of people are welcoming and beautiful. I'm now living in Colorado for the third time in my life and it is as beautiful as the late great Mr. John Denver portrays it in this song. I would gladly host anyone who would wish to share God's beauty in this amazing place if they would agree to do the same in their home country as I'm sure I was be just as amazed at the beauty of their homeland.

My favorite Denver song! John was often referred to as "a song's best friend," and he truly was! Thanks for this one guys, great job!✌️❤️

John Denver wrote most of the songs he ever recorded. He did write this one. He became popular in the 70s and early 80s. But I tell you the music from the 1970s was the best ever and very eclectic

This one gets me every time the more i hear it the more i love Its pure Joy to the ears

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 "Take Me Home, Country Roads", "Grandma's Feather Bed", "Fly Away", "Leaving On A Jet Plane", "Poems, Prayers & Promises", "Annie's Song", "Calypso", "Sunshine On My Shoulders" 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.

Imagine John in concert and 10,000+ fans/friends singing along. It was incredible.

John Denver did so much beautiful music. Loved him. So talented. Gone too soon sadly 😢
