Victor Fusca is John Denver

🙏💓 LOVE John!

He took his stage name from the capital city of his favorite state, Colorado. Saw him many times in Aspen, where he lived.

“Music does bring people together. It allows us to experience the same emotions. People everywhere are the same in heart and spirit. No matter what language we speak, what color we are, the form of our politics or the expression of our love and our faith, music proves we are the same.”

- John Denver

John Denver was a political activist, and in 1985 when he toured the Soviet Union he was moved greatly by a visit to the Piskaryovka Memorial Cemetery where literally hundreds of thousands of victims of the Siege of Leningrad are buried.

*****
What are we making weapons for? Why keep on feeding the war machine? We take it right out of the mouths of our babies, take it away from the hands of the poor, tell me, what are we making weapons for?

For the first time in my life I feel like a prisoner, a slave to the ways of the powers that be. And I fear for my children, as I fear for the future I see.

Tell me how can it be we’re still fighting each other? What does it take for a people to learn? If our song is not sung as a chorus, we surely will burn.

Have we all forgotten all the lives that we are given, all the vows that were taken, saying never again, Now for the first time, this could be the last time. If peace is our vision, let us begin.
