| How can I be the first person to read this and comment on it? John Denver wrote and sang some of the best music ever recorded, and this song is one of his greatest achievements. A great song to listen to at night on the way home from driving across the country. It almost puts tears in my eyes with the beauty end eloquence of its words and the love with which it is sung. I may be crazy, but I love it. | |

| Lame rituals are what college is all about. Don't knock it until you try it. P.S. I loved the song long before I was a student at WVU. I love it more now. | |

| i'd never heard this song until i moved to west virginia. but i learned to love it. and when john denver wrote it, i'm sure he never imagined that at every bar in morgantown wv, at the stroke of midnight, thousands of drunk college kids would be screaming the lyrics at the of of their lungs. gotta love wvu. | |
