John Denver would be 82 had he lived. He’d be very happy today.

He was a big-time lefty

Critics hated him but the fans loved him.

His hypocrisy showed up when he installed a 5,000 gas tank on his property while advocating the virtues of conservation.

Years ago I was speaking with a German foreign exchange student (who is now closer to retirement than high school) and asked her what she and her friends sing on trips etc.

She started to sing an American song. I went 'no no' what do you and your friends sing when you're in Germany - and she switched to ' A hundred bottles of beer on the Wall'... I started laughing. I'm guessing Country Roads was a song they grew up singing. Which is really sweet and wonderful when you think about it.
