Classics: Annie's Song


Original video located here. Accessed 10th August 2018

Song title: Annie's Song

Artist: John Denver

Year: 1974

Why I like this song:

History has not been kind to John Denver with his repertoire making him look a real wimp. Matters are not helped with that urban legend that he was a sniper.

But personally, I view this song as the kind of love song that other songwriters can only dream of writing. They say sincerity is difficult to convey in a song but somehow, against the odds, it works here.
Truly this song is lightening in a bottle
