Susy Bogguss - Take It to the Limit

Yeah, two of the songs you recently listed here stand out. Flying For Me is a very beautiful song, indeed! But as for Take Me Home Country Roads, there's a story behind that...

Well, when I was little, I had a Disney cassette of songs with a traveling theme. Anyway, one of them was that song. One night, I was listening to it with my grandmother, and she started singing the song along with the tape. I was surprised, because I thought it was just another kids song. I asked her how she knew it, and she told me that it had been on the radio in the 70's.
Fast-forward about 4 years later, (Wow, is that all? It seems like more.), and my grandmother had recently died. I was doing my Spanish homework one evening and listening to my John Denver CD, when that song came on. All of a sudden, I thought of that day long ago, and for a moment I actually stopped in the middle of answering a question and cried a little!
Sorry for my rambling; I just like sharing these little anecdotes.
