Really wonderful. That's why it is so great when younger singers/bands do older songs. They introduce a younger generation to music they might not have heard. Example: when we went to Rusted Root, they played Suspicious Minds, and it was news to our kids that Elvis had done it. As I wrote, I knew it as an Arlo song, and never heard of the Muppets/John Denver version. :<)Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-44595438963954380432012-05-28T11:56:59.989-04:002012-05-28T11:56:59.989-04:00I think it was Kat of Coffee fame who introduced m...I think it was Kat of Coffee fame who introduced me to the Mallett original. Being of the Muppet Show generation, I believed it was a John Denver song. I think it's nice that we all came to it via different paths.spritehttp://www.spritewrites.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-10458373063117332032012-05-28T10:42:47.894-04:002012-05-28T10:42:47.894-04:00Many, many people have sung his song.

I fear that young people now are mostly urban and don't have that same attachment to 'mother earth' as he sings about.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-53141071665509671932012-05-27T20:27:45.218-04:002012-05-27T20:27:45.218-04:00I'm so happy you posted this song.

For some reason I'd always assumed it was a Pete Seeger song - I had no idea Mr. Mallett had written it.<br /><br />It goes so well with your header image, too.
