John Denver - The Eagle and The Hawk (1974, "The John Denver Show") 

You never hear other people covering this song... Because you don't mess with perfection.

The song that leaves me in awe every time I hear it

John now soars with the eagles! It's where he always wanted to be! He'll be forever missed. 😢❤

didn't know how badly my soul needed this right now until it popped up in notifications

When I was 15 and living with my grandparents, I played this over and over again for hours. Changed my life!

John Denver: The man respected everything he saw.

My very first Concert in 1980, was a john Denver Concert 🥰

I heard this song for the very 1st time while at a J.D concert, and I was in that moment of awe and I get that exact same emotion and feeling everytime I hear it even too this day! It's mindedness like that in our lives that never leave us. I'm so thankful I was able to be in that Era of time! "Make beautiful moments" that take your breath away, and hang on to them! Time goes by so quickly and unexpectedly. 🙏😇❤️‍🔥✨️💕🦋

I'm still in mourning that he'd gone. He'll be forever in my heart ❤️

I first started listening to John denver while recovering from a stroke. I think his music saved me from a very dark place

Immortal

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this song!!!

I've been blessed with two dreams including John. One was him and me singing this together, and me flying and soaring and swooping over the landscape, lol. I so love flying in my dreams!

😊 I ❤ John Denver music.

Legendary song sung by John Denver! Greatly missed! Taken too soon!

❤

Always loved John Denver

❤❤.

The things he stood for.....the things he represented and preached about are only now being understood ....this man was YEARS AHEAD of his time.....and his message and his work will endure....will there ever be another butterfly?....i think not....rest in peace John.....here in The Cambell Valley British Columbia ...you are a hero to all..🙏

His voice soars around the eagle. He lives on! ❤❤❤

I've always lived by his ways. He's missed. ❤❤❤😢

I can still hear his voice in the wind. I live by them. ❤❤❤

The Eagle and The Hawk has always been one of my favorite songs but like John Denver himself, it ends all too soon and leaves me with a tear in my eyes. 🥺

I could listen to these words every day! He's the eagle, I am the hawk.

Miss you JD...your music lives on💖💖💖

His music so deeply moved me when I was a child and I wish I had understood my attraction to him and his music. As an adult I understand that he was pointing to all of the treasures of our world and wrapping it in beautiful melody. From the moment I moved to Colorado eight years ago I finally deeply connected with his message and now understand what we all should be seeking as human beings. In a time of Reaganism and materialism he was trying to point the way to what is real and important.

Short but sweet! One of my favourites. Had the privilege of seeing John two or three times. Last time just after Challenger tragedy. He and the crew will never be forgotten.

লিজেন্ড ❤

He was a prophet. So lovely to see this video.

I love his songs

He is missed very much!!! I live my life as he would. Country Road Take Me Home! ❤❤❤😢😊

Absolute chills, followed by tears of profound gratitude. What a glorious blessing , and living legacy of melodies he has left us. As always, straight to the heart. Fly free John. You are so loved.

I've loved his music since the early 70s, and still do! His way of life was/is the best! I'm a 73 yo hippy that still lives his life. Peace to all.

Soar with the eagles, John! You're forever missed! 😢❤❤

This is my fav song of his. His songs and ethics meant a lot to me growing up and more so now. What a lovely soaring voice.

Incredible voice...pure talent...immortal John

This song always leaves me wanting more! 💖🤗

His voice goes to my bones! He sores with the eagles! ❤❤❤😊

One of his best songs. I'm sure that he's flying with the eagles now! ❤❤❤

His music will always be in my heart ❤️ 💙 💜

I just miss him and the 70s.

A couple of friends of mine sang this song at my oldest son's Eagle Court of Honor on October 12th, 2012, the day John Denver died. The song has always meant so much to me.

Brings back some beautiful memories 😔🙏🏻❤️

His words saved many lives!

I love how his voice soars so easily and freely - makes me think of sunshine, chill winds and mountain peaks. Rest In Peace John - you were taken too soon.

He's flying with the eagles! I miss him! ❤❤❤❤❤❤Love 😊

Marvellous... Sad and stupid death. He misses us.

Love this song ❤️

Unforgetibel❤❤

This some make me know all of us truly have wings, we just need to find them.

How I miss him! 😢❤

I really miss him.

Nice :)

Love playing this song.

I've never known someone who was so close to nature, the earth, and how believed we should be. ❤❤❤ He is sadly missed, but his music will live on forever! 😢❤❤❤

WHAT IS THAT MELODY 🔥🔥🔥

So verry beautyful the hawk and so good gitaar playing he good whirh animimamals birds and the see ❤❤❤

He soars with the eagles! ❤❤❤

Always loved how his voice sort of cracks during the long "fly"...

Best ever! ❤❤❤

Never forget; always believe!

Intelectual musical, em memória.

Oh John, how I miss you. Your music made me feel expansive & magnanimous even from my wheelchair. You will never die. Much love, Amy & Zoe 🐈‍⬛

God I miss him 😢

Very few people understand his words/music. Ignorance is not always bliss. There's a lot of people walking through life with blinders on. Sad, but true.

I miss his music/philosophy. I hope he's flying with the eagles! ❤❤❤

I have this song on my phone music list too!

Música linda show abraços parabéns pelo vídeo 👏👏👏👏👏

Sometimes I fly like the eagles...sometimes I'm deep in despair.

One has to know how he lived and what he believed in to even come close to knowing the meaning behind the song. Few people do. I feel sorry for the rest. They'll never know. ❤

One of my favorites from early in his career❤

I've always believed about life as he did. Most respect this; some dismiss me. Ignorance causes the brain to die.

I saw him in concert when he premiered Shanghai Breezes

Bom dia felicidade paz vc e Chow legal .

My only complaint about this song is that it’s way too short. This and Calypso are my 2 favorite JD songs!

Al vin Gu zman love you dad

Dammit. I was 9 years old

So sad what happened to him. I wish he had just hung on to it.

FAR OUT! Sorry...

lebt der noch

Excuse me! I meant to say 1997, not 2012!

My death wish... peace

you cant always escape home.

Miss you, John Denver!😢 I live my life by what you sang about. ❤

❤❤

I remember seeing this as a kid….thought it was the best thing ever👏👏👏👏

John Denver is the eagle!!!❤❤❤
