  • Not sure why this is not 5 stars!!!! Good as the original.

  • good cover

  • your voice is amazing.

  • loveley.

  • this guy is really good !

  • Absolutely great. Thanks for sharing!

  • This is the best cover I have heard of sweet baby james. you need a record deal.

  • You are so amazing. Keep it up mate!

  • holy moly! this is my favorite song ever and u sound so good!!! and just like james taylor but in a good way!

  • Do you write any music? Id like to hear it. Ive picked up several JT licks from your videos. sounds good

  • nice job mate

  • Sometimes a carbon-copy outshines the original especially when the original artist gets lazy over the years and try talking the song instead of signing. Over the years J.T. and other artist have done an injustice to their original versions. Sometimes the carbon-copies do it even better than the original live version.

  • I think it requires a lot of spirit and dedication to be able to play and sings as well as he does.  Being a player myself, I understand the discipline that is required to be able to play like this. Besides, copying a song that you love only shows his admiration for the "original". You don't know this man or what motivates him so get a life.

  • That was really good.

  • Do you really think he tries to match the original? You have missed the point my friend.

  • This man is precisely James Taylor.

  • I love your voice, it could make me fall asleep. :) Very peaceful, great!

  • you do out-taylor james taylor keep doing what your doing

  • Nasir! I have just commented to your Fire and Rain and thought it was fantastic. And you played this so well. Absolutely wonderful. I hope your life and future is a wonderful one too with lots of love and happiness. Well done!

  • Marvellous !

    La même voix le même hochement de tête que JT.

    Funny to see how Nansir moove his head ( like to say "no") exactly like JT does.

    Hey Nansir, close the window please, we don't need the planes.

    *****

  • This is an excellent version, it's played very well, your voice is lyrical and the pitch is down to a tee. Keep up the great work!

  • this guy does an excellent job on playing the song and singing it, sounds just like james taylor, how does he do it so well, i can't even play that song on my guitar. i wonder if james taylor knows about that guy lol.

  • please do some Cat Stevens I think you could match him too...

  • You got a lovely voice, pleasure to listen to.

    Keep up the singing man, lovely.

  • You out-James-Taylored James Taylor! Fantastic!

  • Very nice my friend. Is that a Yamaha CJX32 from their Chronos series? Keep up the good work man.

  • great

  • Par for the course, my friend, great job!

  • nice work! lets hear more!!

  • Nansir,

    Excellent guitar playing...

    So far I have spent close to $100 and bought almost all tab books for james taylor just to get the tabs the way James taylor plays this song and all the books that I have do not have the exact tab notes or sequences the way you, fargenbastich or james taylor plays... I really need your help... It's getting to a point where I cannot sleep over this. Thanks very much in advance if you can help me get the right guitar tabs.

  • Keep em' coming! Copperline!

  • sounds exactly like jamesypoo

  • MUY BUENOOOOO

  • I have to say that with your simple look I was especially suprised by your quality voice. Great cover.

  • perfect, you've got "groove".  looking forward to more.

  • Fantastic job ...well done

  • amazing man. keep it up!

  • Wow! If you close your eyes, you almost can't hear the difference!!

  • is that a Cj-32 ur playing? ive got an old cj-12.. but i just bought a taylor 412-ce.. let me know if thats wut u got..

  • Make a record of James Taylor covers. You my friend, have a gift.

  • WOW!! I am a HUGE, HUGE fan of JT, i am extremely picky of which covers i listen to. Your voice is perfect. wow, i am in shock

  • oh yes i was really surprised how well you rerally sang that song ! keep on doing your stuff !

    says Andre ' from Norway :)

  • You are phenomenal! You sound pretty close to James Taylor, so much that you could pass for him on record. i love your voice man.

  • Lovely voice!

  • You have remarkable, natural talent. Just listening to your rendition of James Taylor's song leaves me flabbergasted.

  • You Are The Best James Taylor Soundalike I've Ever Heard - You Should Seriously Consider Taking Up A Career As A Tribute Artist - All Of Your Video's Are Truly Superb, Well Done!!!

  • awesome playing and singing man !~

  • I'm trying to learn this song as a new guitar player. Where did you learn the chord progressions? And what are your finger picking patterns??You did a great job.

  • thanks dude for taking ther time--you help alot of us who want to know the cord progressions--and you are awesome

  • Amazing cover. Really excellent voice and guitar skill!

  • wayyy cool, very well done

  • Great. Nice. Time to hit the prof. trail.

  • Best JT cover I've ever heard. Congrats man.

  • I wasn't expecting this to be so good- but it is! You've got a great voice

  • Wow. Superexcellent. I've heard a lot of great JT covers and yours is up there with the best (others have been in live performance). What's great about this is it's a live take. Your dynamics on vocals and guitar are great and everything was spot on.

  • Absolutely brilliant. You are extremely talented. I've check out some of your other covers as well - beautiful. Do you know "Me and My guitar"?

  • I suspect that all too often the talentless make it big and the genuine singer musicians simply get on with the day job. Life isn't fair is it. Well done.

  • did you just call james taylor talentless???

  • No, you are way off. Just look at the Top 50 and see who is talentless!!

  • Hey bro, that was way cool....waaay cool.

  • Very well done!

  • surperb song as usual, you are always a star in our eyes ;o) Thanks for the live performance this morning and a great weekend! Love to S, C, H, and N xxxx
