I watched "Oh God" a few weeks ago - he was great in that too.

It was exactly 50 years ago at this very time that John Denver's first big hit ("Take Me Home Country Roads") started climbing the charts in 1971. Of course, he had already written a number one hit for Peter, Paul & Mary ("Leaving On A Jet Plane"),

"Annie's Song" will always remind me of Richard Nixon. That because it was the song that was playing on the radio just before the DJ broke in to announce that Nixon had decided to resign the presidency over Watergate.

Doesn't even seem that long ago. Fifty years can sure fly by.

IMO - One of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed.

Agree. I liked it so much I learned to play it on the piano.
