If you truly love America (not Bush's America, but real, authentic America) and the environment, you "must" love John Denver. His songs are timeless and made up of pure beauty ... Calypso is one of my all-time favorites; it totally captures the spuirit of ocean life. As cheesy as it sounds, you can literally smell the water all around you; that tune is incrediblke.
My dad is a huge fan of his as well, and I think I was even secretly sadder than he was when John Denver passed. After his death, for the next couple of months, I "could not" listen to one of his songs all the way through. We had a chance to see him in conert at a winery amphitheatre several months before, but opted not to; if we only knew what we know now ... I have "always" regretted it. As much as I regret not ever having seen Ray Charles in concert (whch I always wanted to do).

"Don't let them mold your mind, they want to control mankind, seems like their only intention is to exploit the earth; and you trust in their deceit, your mind causes your defeat, and so you become an invention to distort this earth; propoganda and lies, is a plague in our lives, how much more victimized, before we realize (hey) ... they'll make it attractive, to get man destracted, corrupting your (soul), polluting your (soul), destroying (your soul, mind control) ... ooh grand master, let the people go, you put them in total confusion, to downs-troy their soul; for they practise what you preach, so they're always in your reach, hi-tech slavery in these days, its mind control"
