Rocky Mountain High – Colorado’s Other State Song

By Mike Rosso

In our October 2012 issue, #223, we wrote about Colorado’s first official state song “Where the Columbines Grow” by A.J. Fynn, which was adopted in 1915 by the General Assembly.

In March of 2007, “Rocky Mountain High,” by singer songwriter John Denver, was named the second official state song by the Colorado State Assembly.
