lydiaquayle 05/09/21 1:26:51 PM #1:	The road that inspired the song is actually in a suburb near Washington, DC. And it was originally going to be Massachusetts, but West Virginia sounded better . I wonder what southern conservative folk think about this shocking development... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Take_Me_Home,_Country_Roads#Composition "*Take Me Home, Country Roads", also known simply as "Take Me Home" or "Country Roads*", is a song written by Bill Danoff, Taffy Nivert and John Denver about West Virginia. Inspiration for the song had come while Nivert and Danoff, who were married, were driving along Clopper Road in nearby Montgomery County, Maryland to a Nivert family reunion in Gaithersburg.[4] According to a radio interview with Nivert, the road is close to Washington, D.C., where Denver often worked. To pass the time en route, Danoff had made up a ballad about the little winding roads they were taking. He had even briefly considered using "Massachusetts" rather than "West Virginia" as both four-syllable state names would have fit the song's meter. Today, the landscape around Clopper Road has changed drastically due to development and little resembles the countryside scenery that once surrounded it.[5] To Danoff, the lyric "(t)he radio reminds me of my home far away" in the bridge is quintessentially West Virginian, an allusion to when he listened to the program Saturday Night Jamboree, broadcast from Wheeling, West Virginia, on WWVA at his home in Springfield, Massachusetts during his childhood in the 1950s.[6] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vrEljMfXYo&ab_channel=JohnDenverVEVO --- [Feminist][CisGender][Straight Supporter][Non-Binary] I'm not Ashamed to Dress 'like a Woman' because I don't think it's Shameful to be a Woman. ~Iggy Pop~ <cite>lydiaquayle posted [p:953726164] in Take Me Ho...
