    Denver wrote this for his then-wife Ann Martell after their first separation and near break up of their marriage in 1974. He said that it was one of the fastest songs he ever wrote, composing it in about 10 minutes while he was riding on a ski lift in Aspen, Colorado. Denver was reflecting on all the joy he found in his marriage and his relief that they were back together.
    Wrote Denver: "Suddenly, I'm hypersensitive to how beautiful everything is. All of these things filled up my senses, and when I said this to myself unbidden images came one after the other. All of the pictures merged and I was left with Annie. That song was the embodiment of the love I felt at that time."
    Annie recalled the day Denver wrote the song: "It was written after John and I had gone through a pretty intense time together and things were pretty good for us. He left to go skiing and he got on the Ajax chair on Aspen mountain and the song just came to him. He skied down and came home and wrote it down... Initially it was a love song and it was given to me through him, and yet for him it became a bit like a prayer."

    This song always reminds me of my mom, and brings me back. She really loved John Denver, especially this song. Everyone in our small town knew that she loved it. After the mass, at her funeral, as we were taking her out of the Church, the choir, began to sing this song for her. I burst out crying…. her friends were saying good bye to her. I later found out, that upon the news of her passing, they quickly learned the song for her funeral. Even had someone play the guitar, no organ.
    It was a fitting tribute to her.
    Stay safe, stay sane, stay Strong

    I was born in 1965. Whenever I hear songs from John Denver it transports my minds eye back to pleasant, innocent days of my youth. Other songs that do this to me from John Denver are "Country Roads" and "Sunshine On My Shoulder". On a semi-related note, John Denver starred in a movie called "Oh God" with the late, great George Burns.

    Here's a great (true) story about this song: Two random ladies were getting on an elevator in NYC. One older - one younger. This song was playing in the elevator, and the younger lady said to the older lady - this song is so beautiful - do you know the name of it?" "Yes I do - the older lady said - it's called *_Annie's Song_* - John Denver wrote it for me when we were married back in the 70's."

It was like a fairytale, I remember holding her in my arms and her smile and my smile and being so happy. She cheated on me, and even after the fact I couldn't get mad at her I was too in love, so I calmly ended it and kept the pain inside with a smile on my face. 🥹💔

    It's tragically amazing how many great story telling song writers died so young. John Denver, Jim Croce and Harry Chapin to name a few, they wrote wonderfully touching songs along with funny and serious pieces as well. We will never know how many more classics they could have produced, a terrible loss not only to their families, but to society as well!

      Pretty sure John was in his mid 50’s when he passed away. Not exactly young, but certainly too young to go. The immense fame took a lot out of him. His long battle with alcoholism was more than likely a factor in his tragic passing.

    John's stardom lasted much longer, but in 1973-5, when he was "new", he was the biggest singing star in the country. His great songs, written by him, just cascaded out on top of each other and this was one of them. For decades, his "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" has been played at Orioles games and when the organization took it away, the fans made them bring it back. Moreover, we loved his upbeat enthusiastic personality and he occasionally was a substitute host on the Tonight Show.

It was one of the few MCs my parents had and I fell in love with his songs. Not understanding a single word as a 7 year older German kid. But the melodies just resonated with my heart. And they still do. Through all my rock an metal journey Denver has never been a guilty but proud pleasure of mine. He was one of kind songwriter. And this song is one of his best.

    He was so popular when I was a kid and his songs were on the radio all the time. And he had a decent variety and what he did. Because he also had some super upbeat stuff like Thank God I'm a Country boy, and, grandma's feather bed. You should check out either of those. And then Sunshine on my shoulder makes me happy was it huge hit, especially with the girls, and then to me one of his most beautiful and haunting songs is, Take Me Home Country roads.
    Around that time I was at this summer camp in the mountains of Colorado with the Boy Scouts, and on one of those nights, we had a bonfire and everyone gathered around and John Denver showed up and played and sang with us and just hung out with us for a while. That was a real treat. It was a surprise kind of thing so you can tell how that would go over with kids, it was awesome. I can still remember the firelight kind of reflecting and flickering off of his spectacles while he sang and told stories. We were impressed that he was also a pilot and had flown in there for the event that night.

    An overlooked great song from him is "Looking For Space"... I love that one.

    Wow I’d forgotten how beautiful this song is, she is every “sense” that he finds perfect and thrilling. Lex is right, everyone should feel this way about their partner.

    John Denver was a true poet….such a loss….I grew up in that Era … my mother used to play his 🎶 music and I can’t hear one of his songs and not think of her….

    There are so many great voices that many of us have learned to know starting in the sixties and John’s is up there with the best! It is so pure!

    This is my favorite song of his and one of my favorite songs of all time from any artist. And with Lex's description of how that instrument sounded maybe it was the flute that we heard that was being played in the song.

    Aside from the message in his music, what I've always loved about John Denver is his effortless vibrato and his range without having to resort to falsetto, things you rarely see combined outside of operatic tenors.
    For something even a step up from this, you should listen to his song "Calypso", which is literally about the research vessel used by famous 70s oceanographer and conservationist Jacque Cousteau but is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

    I used to figure skate endlessly to this song.. because the gal who taught us skating would loop this song somehow and play it in the arena when we were all practising lol... i was only 6, but I can remember people being annoyed ^_^ My favorite part of the song, after the lyrics.. is the feather guitar that plays throughout almost the entire song.. it['s so feather light but you can hear it ringing behind the scenes with a sometimes solo and it beautifully comes through..the flute finishes it off... with such elegance. Yep.. loved the song since childhood..
