Original vs Remake #29

Take Me Home, Country Roads
(written by John Denver, Taffy Nivert, Bill Danoff)


John Denver reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #5 in Canada with this 1971 single from his album Poems, Prayers and Promises.




In 1973 Olivia Newton-John released her version of Take Me Home, Country Roads and went to #15 in the UK and Top 10 in Japan but never cracked the Hot 100 in the US.
