It is subjective whether John Denver's claims were strong enough to stifle music censorship by the PMRC. While Denver was a respected and popular musician at the time and his testimony did contribute to the opposition against music censorship, it was ultimately a combination of various factors and voices from different artists, industry professionals, and advocates that led to the eventual rejection of the PMRC's proposals. Denver's testimony likely played a role in raising awareness and garnering support for the opposition, but it is difficult to attribute the stifling of music censorship solely to his claims.
