No offence but such a personal song about Taylor's own experiences in this song and his delicate voice can only be an original. Whilst Denver is unquestionably a poet in his own right, Taylor's song blows this version away...everytime

But John's flying machine was in pieces on the ocean.... (It's awful black humor, by the way...)

Daydream is in Denver's "Rhymes and Reason" album, and Fire and Rain is in
his "Poems, Prayers & Promises" album.

OMG, I never heard or knew JD sang this song!
Distinctively a James Taylor tune yet John Denver give his own individuality in vocals and his strumming.
..and I treasure both for their music and insight.

I am 36 and have lost both an older and younger brother. I have found tremendous healing in listening to and playing John's music. I must say... no one can do it like JD.
I wish someone would come along and make music like he did.
