John Denver and Johnny Cash - Take Me Home Country Roads
Assorted 70's Sheet Music Covers (via: eBay)
John Denver was born in New Mexico, not West Virginia, and the song “Take Me Home, Country Roads” has a funny twist. When it was released in 1971, Denver and his two co-writers, Bill Danoff and Taffy Nivert, had reportedly not really been to West Virginia. Danoff said he picked words like “Blue Ridge Mountains” and “Shenandoah River” because they sounded beautiful in a song. So one of West Virginia’s most loved songs was written mostly from imagination, wordplay, and vibes.

Perhaps love is like a resting place, a shelter from the storm. It exists to give you comfort, it is there to keep you warm, and in those times of trouble when you are most alone, the memory of love will bring you home.
