  • "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 closer
    It wants to show you more
    And even if you lose yourself
    And don't 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 don't know
    Perhaps love is like the ocean
    Full of conflict, full of change
    Like a fire when it's 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"

      I completely agree. I was a professional singer for many years, and every time I hear him I'm impressed all over again. He sounded exactly the same at age 54 shortly before he died: czcams.com/video/-P1YRVQZKl0/video.html&start_radio=1

      I saw a YT analysis of his singing recently which gave me some insight as to why he's so good. He's always on pitch, with a slight, very well controlled vibratro, which he can increase for effect, as he wishes. He's also at one with his songs: perfectly conveying his thoughts and emotions.

    John and his voice were definitely sent to us by God, for I have never heard such an artist and entertainer like him. His songs were so wholesome and uplifting. But this song "Perhaps Love" says it all about the man John Denver and what he was. A memory of Love. Rest in Peace John Denver for the purpose God gave you here on earth was fulfilled. To sing and remind all of us of what God gave us in the very beginning, Love.

    A truly beautiful song. John's music brought my wife and I together, celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary this year. We managed to see him in concert 5 times, the last was in our home town and we took our three young sons (10, 8 and 5). Met him at the stage door afterwards and he made a fuss of the boys being out so late. I still have a personal letter from him which we treasure.

    I'm not exception, like most, I have an opinion and my opinion is I just listened to one of the greatest songs every written, and performed. Not just the words, but the tune, them melody and all those other song technicalities. And John Denver is the one who sings it best. No apparent effort, it flows from his mouth right to your brain. I thank him for his lasting gift to the world.

    I had seen him once in Seattle and enjoyed him. A couple years later had the opportunity to see him again. I was excited. But then before the show started I learned that he would be preforming alone, without his band and thought about leaving figuring that he couldn't possibly entertain. I was wrong. Of all the concerts I have been to over the course of my 65 yrs, this one with just him showing what an absolute talent he was, was the very best. Shortly after I was up late watching Tv and CNN came on with the announcement that he had died in a plane crash. I cried. I cried for his family and I cried that we lost someone who had his own struggles but yet was in so many ways just a pure sole wanting what was best for all. I miss his music to this day.

His Earthly legacy is here for us all to aspire to, his wisdom, his grace, his wonderful and beautiful Humanitarianism and love for Ecology. I feel extremely proud, privileged and honoured to have shared this world, be it briefly, through his magnificent music and heart rendering vocal lyrics. A gentle man in every sense of the word.💜😪💔

      I'm sorry to hear that. Sometimes you just have no other choice except letting go. A friend of mine lost her son this February. His death was an indirect consequence of mental illness. He was diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was 16 and institutionalized. When he turned 18, he was transferred into a half-house. A few years later, he was allowed to move into a studio apartment of his own, but he was placed under legal guardianship. Then, one day in late February, a farmer found him dead on a pile of pallets next to a heap of manure. He was wearing nothing but pajamas and one slipper. According to the autopsy, he died from hypothermia. He must have walked at least 200 miles that night, because that was the distance between his place and the farm. It turned out that he hadn't obtained o refill for his medication since October last year. Both he and his mother wanted him to recover instead of dying, but fate does not ask for consent. At least, in death, he's free from his misery.

I had no idea who he was, but agreed to tag along to see him. I left the concert stunned at what I had just heard. What a magnificent performance! What a magnificent voice! What wonderful music. I have loved John Denver since that evening. Thanks, roomie, for your insistence on me going!

      I know I’m way late to this conversation but I’ve loved his music since I was a little girl. I’m 56 now and i have a 6 month old granddaughter and every since she could no longer be rocked to peace or sleep (around 1 month of age) I began to carry her around the house and sing Sunshine on my shoulders to her, softly in her ear and it would stop all crying or fussiness and ease her to sleep.. I then began to play it and sing it to her while she needed comforting and to this day no matter how frustrated or upset or fussy she is, I pick her and rock with her around the house and play that beautiful song and she just settles immediately. She loves it. Thank you John, for giving me a real & deep connection with my sweet, precious girl that belongs to only her and I. 🥹♥️
