I don't care *how* uncool it makes me. I still like John Denver's music.

I'm a not-so-closet fan, myself. I'm a sucker for songs with humor, and songs about quiet faith and happiness (like Thank God I'm a Country Boy, or Matthew). What's not to like? There was a time when computers were as uncool as you could get, too. :-) Country/Folk music will have its day.

*grin* That's two of us then. I have fond memories (my father used to play Mr. Denver when I was a child - it was very nearly his sole departure from classical music).

Yep yep yep. John Denver was one of the best!

Just yesterday, I but "Grandma's Feather Bed" on my party playlist. :)

The first songs I learned to play on my guitar, in '75, were John Denver songs. I've also always really loved a good chunk of (but never most of) the Carpenter's song book. I like a simple song that I can sing to, and I'm an incorrigible Pollyanna (typed "polyanna" at first) so both work for me.

(Also: There is no doubt that his Muppet Show was the best Muppet Show, and his Muppet Christmas album is one of the best Christmas albums.)

Wow! And the guys tease me terribly as if I was the only "uncool kid" on the block. "Leaving on a Jet Plane" was my mom & dad's song. I actually saw JD live in concert in the 70s.

Why would John Denver's music make you uncool? His "Readjustment Blues" is one of my favorites.

Well, yeah.
