Windsong was released at the peak of John Denver's career, and rode to Number One on the strength of his previous success, and the epic "Calypso," which happened to provide the touchstone for the album. Essentially, Windsong is an album about communing with nature, and an overall thematic thrust is missing from many other Denver records. There may not be that many songs that match "Calypso," but many come close, helping elevate Windsong into Denver's front rank of albums.
Fly Away" is a 1975 song written and performed by John Denver featuring vocals by Olivia Newton-John. Released as a single from the Windsong album, "Fly Away" peaked at number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and spent two weeks atop the adult contemporary chart in early-1976, Denver's sixth number one on this chart. Fly Away" also peaked at number 12 on the country chart.
The wind is the whisper of our mother the Earth The wind is the hand of our father the sky The wind watches over our struggles and pleasures The wind is the goddess who first learned to fly. The wind is the bearer of bad and good tidings Weaver of darkness, bringer of dawn The wind gives the rain (yes), and builds us a rainbow The wind is the singer who sang the first song The wind is a twister of anger and warning. Stephen Thomas Erlewine. 1 Windsong John Denver 2:47.
