    In a report on JD's untimely death,

    "There was no trace of alcohol or any other drug in Denver's body at autopsy"

    As you know Roders I think J Denver is amazing and his songs are wonderful.
    This one was played at my daughters wedding by the String Trio I hired as she signed the register....:luv:

    Its so sad that when we are children we cant wait to grow up, then when your an adult you would love to be a child again. The saying is oh so true. " The youth is wasted on the young".:yez: 02

    Hi Nick,

    That has always been amongst my favourite songs (there are hundreds of my favourites:)) but it was rather ironic that eight years after he wrote that lovely song for Annie his wife and it became a world wide hit, she divorced him. :(

    He also wrote 'Annie's Other Song' which was good but not as good as the original.
