James Taylor just gets better and better .....This man is truly a gift to this troubled world...we will not see the likes of him any time soon again.....When I think of JT ..I think this guy is on a mission to heal our souls with his music ...he would say not ...but he does have a very healing like persona ...and where does he get his energy from ,as he about to embark on tour of over 60 concerts..in 2012.....If everyone took a little fix of James Taylor daily the world can be a better place
acatnthehat, you must be so filled with hate if all you can see from this beautiful song and performance his oral sex with a political opposite. Sorry you can't just feel the music
Truly his talent is a gift from God to man, I love his music and always will. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away they say so, I guess his fellating Colbert while prostituting his talent for the Filthy Left prove that in his case musical genius and a beautiful soul are mutually exclusive. How unfortunate for America and how awful for Baby James.
@acatnthehat Why don't you keep your hateful opinions to yourself safe in your belief the rest of us will burn in hell eventually. You brainwashed and bigoted piece of human filth.
im glad he had his drug addiction, it gave him an incredible life lesson that gives u no other feeling in music then before. either sober or not his music sounds incredible.
As a singer/songwriter James Taylor is up there with the best. Makes you feel all's right with the world when you're feeling down. I've been listening to him for 40 years and will carry on until I can hear no more.........
@eve0803ful This song makes me cry, too, but I don't know why. I'm not from Carolina, north or south, and I've never even visited the state. But this song just strikes some chord in me. It's so beautiful...
This song by James Taylor was absolutely beautiful. James your voice is soo smooth, and perfect, it is heartfelt. Your family must be soo proud of you through the years of what you have done. Sincerely,
I heard this song for the first time while I was in Georgia, visiting my (now ex) girlfriend's father. He had the TV on, and this exact concert was playing. I was awestruck, and I tried to learn it on my guitar the minute I came back home. Well, a few days after I returned, I became single. This song is a beautiful reminder of what was, and it helped me through a hard time, so I'm doing my best to learn it all the way through as a sort of tribute.
@EpicVblogs I think that every person has different tastes in music. Just like food, some foods we think are discussing are tasty to other people. You can't judge peoples music because of what it sounds like to you, that is just ignorant. Me myself am not a fan of skrillex but who am I to judge what other people like.
I discovered JT when I was a young teenager back in the early 70's. For the last 40 years or so when I'm down I listen to him and I manage to find a smile.
I was named after this song and my dad has sung and played it to me ever since it was a lullaby and i was in a cot. I'm now fifteen and the song just keeps getting better... I don't ever think I'll stop playing it <3
i honestly cried when i heard this..i know you shouldnt have this emotion when you hear great music but i cant help it..i cried because nothing can compare to this with the shit-faced so called "musicians" that we have today..i wish i was 9 again when i always hear these music in the radio and when my dad would play this loudly in his compact cassette player..im going to bring back these memories..i'll play nothing but the music of the greats from now on..thanks James Taylor and to everyone..^_^
hey don't feel alone things turn the way they are cause you either in the pass or the beginning of something i lost some one special and i don't know whether to start or to end
what ballbag disliked this?? james taylor is someone all musicians should aspire to be like, across the genres, the man's professionalism and humility adds so much sincerity to his (already stellar) songs. what a legend
we should all be going to carolina--it used to be a good place to buy property to rent out. however--nobody can afford to go on smokey mountain vacations anymore-great place to rent or buy. still beautiful--that will never change. and james still does it the best.
It's such an honor to see you young folks posting your appreciation for this music! I love to read your comments. Thank you, from an old lady who has loved James and his music long and well. May you carry it with you and keep it alive.
I just now learned this guys name. Every time i hear him on the radio i think "oh, it's that singer with the really friendly sounding voice," But I never knew James Taylor's name. Now I think I've found a new obsession!
James Taylor is the greatest singer/song writer that we will ever see. I have listened to him since the 70s and have seen him in concert numerous times. He calms me and makes me feel everything will be ok when the world gets crazy.
@tmzadk He fills me with love and makes me cry everytime he opens his mouth. Everything he sings hits ome - and this song in particular defines a huge portion of my life.
@garcemac -couldn't said any better, he is home to me,being from N.C too, his tour this summer will be coming here to Memphis, and I will be there...kleenex in hand
@turd111111 dude thats awesome! im 15 and i thought i was the youngest but I guess afterall there's a great future ahead of us other than all that rap crap.
It's going to be a sad day when JT leaves us. I'm only 23 but I have so much appreciation for him and his music. Music today has no meaning behind it other than dollar signs.
@CalypsoRaz i feel the exact same way, i am 25 yrs old. james taylor is one of MANY greats that have existed. fuck todays corporate driven Bullshit. no matter what ppl our own age say, this IS the great music, the SPIRIT never dies! generation after generation brother!
@FlixMaker64 I'll second that CalypsoRaz! JT is great im 33 and discovered his music only a few years ago whilst learning to play guitar. It was an almost life changing moment, the world seems like a much nicer place when you've got a James Taylor song going round your head! I went to watch him live in Bournemouth this year, if you havent seen him live GO!! :)
@CalypsoRaz So happy you feel that way......being 23 and with all the influence out there. JT is a great artist. Thank you for enjoying his music....his STYLE! =-)
