About John Denver

John Denver is one of those artists, for me, that produced music that spoke to me from the very beginning.  


There was a point in my life, right after High School, and just before moving to Minnesota where I heard John's song "I Want to Live", and it really moved me, and directly helped me choose my life.


It is only right that I have a page honoring this man and musician.


p.s. When I listened to "I Want to Live", I broke down crying, the memories just flooded back.

Music Forum

I created a Forums website, which is separate from this website to have a place to collect content, ideas and thoughts.  A place to organize these things separate from all other social media sites.  A place of my own where I can claim my successes and qualities, as well as bear witness to the terrible, terrible things I've experienced and learned.

I Want to Live
