  • J.T. ! Lovely and relaxing voice !!

  • rất hay , bà koan nên nghe thử

  • Uncanny how well this song fit into the film. Good times :)

  • =(_8^(1) Humer Simpson !

  • This reminds me of the good times, the stressless and free times. No worries.

    But that was yesterday...

  • Long ago, but not so very long ago

    

  • james taylor...the master of the soul u_u9

  • There is a great documentary James ought ti lend this song to. Its called "Home". Its about a small town in Oregon called Valsetz that was destroyed by corporate greed. Check it out sometime and tell me if this song wasn't written for those people?

  • Love song Yeaaaa!!

  • Such a beautyful song

  • 9 dislikes???? For what???? what has this world come to??!!!! :O Even 9 is too many!

  • Thumbs up for Diseny Pixar and James Taylor

  • cest puissant JT

  • a dislike bar?!?! for what?!?

  • this is a great video this music we must share

  • I was trying to find the root of Kate Rusbys song,,

    "Our Town". help. Kate Rusby is a brilliant English singer, song writer and she collects good tunes and writes her own.

  • @306bad Kate Rusby version was written and performed by Iris Dement

  • Thumbs up if you just heard about Cars when coming here. lol jk

  • "Love it any way". Yes. That's so wonderful

  • what a fantastic song (:

  • Yes, the first time when I heard it, I almost wanted to cry. What a nice song

  • Amazing song! :)

  • @tERO141  Exactly :)

  • James Taylor remains one of the best live artists anywhere. I sincerely hope all of you have a chance to see him before it is too late. He is a truly gifted artist with great musicians surrounding him... you will NOT be disappointed, promise!

  • @tERO141 : it probably has SOMETHING to do with the fact that this song was written for Cars;))

    It's author's name is Randy Newman. And yes, it is awesome.

  • i would listen to james taylor over iris any day i couldent even listen 2 her our town song 4 2 secints she was that bad

  • muito boa essa musica

  • Łike if Cars brought you here ;D

  • glad i have never seen cars

  • @rudetoddboy how can u say that!?! its an amazing movie! and it has a great meaning even if it looks kiddish. its a great movie!!!!!! <3

  • @RainbowKitty1397 yea but it would have spoiled this song for me.. as is would cloud over the true meaning.. don't hate the film but i will never watch it.

  • Cars 1st... 

  • cest magnifique

  • @TheTiobiloute62 oui! tres tres magnifique <3

  • good

  • buenaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaso tema,lastima que nunca podre conocer la verdadera ruta 66 :(

  • Not as good as Iris Dement's song.

  • @doobeedoo2 : Sorry, but these are two distinctly different songs by vocalists about as far on each end of the spectrum as any two can get. James has a smooth, heartfelt way of telling his stories through his music that hasn't really changed in all the years he's been performing. On the other hand, while I'm sure Iris has her followers, she has an irritating nasal quality to her voice that makes it difficult to listen to an entire song without stuffing a rag in her mouth to shut her up.

  • Kiedy update?

  • @azulvioleta02 Your comment, along with this music playing, has made for 1 of the most touching I've yet read on Youtube. Well said azulvioleta02...........well said. :-)

  • SUBLIME! ;D

  • 7 people prefer jb`s music

  • this song is for people which are gone from your life... love them anyway.. its dedicated to them

  • wooohoo 500ste thumbs up^^

  • @tERO141 Well, it was written for Cars, so yes. (Personally, I didn't like the movie as much as I liked Toy Story, and some of the earlier Pixar animations.)

  • i didn't know that this nice song exist until i watch CARS.. a very nice song.. = )

  • @MrKratos07 The song was made for Cars...

  • Linda musica... Ai vai a tradução em português. (Nossa Cidade) Há muito tempo, mas não há tanto tempo assim O mundo era diferente, oh sim ele era Você se estabeleceu construiu sua cidade e a fez viver E você a assistiu crescer Era a sua cidade O tempo passa, o tempo traz mudanças, você também muda Nada vem que você não consiga lidar, e assim você vai Jamais viu o que estava chegando, o mundo desabou em você Em sua cidade Nada você pode fazer....
  • super piosenka

  • great song

  • LINDA!

  • The funny thing is, I always enjoyed hearing this song when I watched Cars. Then my uncle introduced me to James Taylor recently and I love his music. I watched Cars again and realized that this was him. What a beautiful song and a great singer.

  • like if you first heard this on cars ;)

  • @roryiom like if just shut up

    

  • ohh my god it's my first time i have been comment coz it's the best song ever and remind me of the beutyful bast waw for this song also best from all bull shit justine songs the gay

  • i super duper like this song! :D

  • Heerlijk nummer!

  • This song is such a testament to the differences in the way life is lived today versus years ago. Everyone today is in such a rush to get to where they want to be, people and business pressure us to always move faster, if you go to slow, your old, washed up, you need to be passed by. So sad. If you go to fast you miss things along the way, you bypass so much you could have seen and things so beautiful they make your heart sing. I also cry everytime I hear this song, it's such a testament to life

  • this song makes me cry and im only 13 so thatll tell u tht more people need to listen to this song and maybe the world would be a better place we need more songs like this!!!!<3

  • i love this song^^

  • 6 People are absolutely retardet !!!!!!!!!!!

  • @MRcheetah222 Now are 7 :/.

  • Sounds like the story of Roseburg, Oregon. Once a thriving town with all sorts of jobs in the mills and great people, now a dying town with no jobs and nothing but white trash.

  • @tERO141 yeah, i used the app Shizam on my Galaxy. XD

  • I want this song to be played at my funeral.

  • @jvfunn3000 I hope it's a long way away! : )

  • @1bol390 I'm only 20 1/2 so don't worry I think it's gonna be a long time before I go.

  • @jvfunn3000 GOOOOD ! : )

  • BRAVO!!!

  • I like it !! :)

  • Very true...seems that things are happening a million miles away...always a day, or a week or a month or many years late.

  • So beautiful :'/

  • Awsome. And so sad. Beautiful. Heartbreaking. Great.

  • @tERO141 shhh, don't let them know!

  • it touch my heart :,( ...it so sad

  • so relaxing.. =D

  • makes me cry every time i hear this song because it reminds me of all

  • this song tells me much from my life. As many of you my life was perfect until one day I noticed I had go a long way away from the life that had make me happy for so much early years but it was too late. The town changed, all that places that I loved as a kid where gone and worst of all, some of the most important people of my life that where a huge part of that happiness where gone forever too. suddenly the world is not the same isn't it? This son represents all that for me.. Miss all that!

  • @ruitorre Same here. I grew up in my hometown for 12 years. For those 12 years I had stability, mainly coming from living in the same town. Then my father was killed in a car accident, the next year I moved towns. All of a sudden my world, my reality that I knew for 12 years was rocked and the world wasn't the same, both because of the loss of my father/best friend and moving from the only place I've known for 12 years of my life. You learn to adapt and that's what this song represents to me.

  • perfeita

  • @Elaine7894 concordo plenamente... Pena que a versão em português não se encontre em lado nenhum (disney cars) ainda assim para quem sabe inglês e percebe a letra é daquelas musicas que se entranha em nós e nos faz sentir o que somos, o que fomos e pensar se tera valido ou não a pena algumas lutas da vida. É uma musica linda!

  • Great song. Even when I speak in spanish and live so far from USA ... in Argentina .... this song transport me to the town I am living now but 40 years ago .... incredible different ! and a miss a lot the time when I was a kid. Thank you very much James Taylor.

  • so touching song which reminds me of my ex best friend after she'd changed.... :'(

    still makes me cry whenever i remember our glory days!!.... :'(

  • @jessica6274242 What happened?

  • Really touching song!

    Reminds me off the time when I was a kid, the place where I grew up!

    Brings back great memories of how easy life was at that age.

    GREAT SONG!

  • @DC00l it is a great song, I think it fits perfectly of what has happened to the city of Detroit over the past 50 years and it was a beautiful, hard-working city and now...you know the rest

  • Comment removed

  • Excelente!!!!

  • this doesnt have to do with anything but this song was playing when my family and i were in a car accident. no one was hurt thankfully

  • Cool song

  • the way it was translated into german was so bad

  • one - of this song : too long introduction

  • beautiful music, so beautiful!!! 

  • This song reminds me of the town I left when I went in the Navy so long ago. When I finally came back so much had changed and not for the good. I have the fond memories of that wonderful place on shores of Lake Michigan in Wisconisn, the town of my youth, but now that town only exists in my mind. Take care of your town so it never loses its soul. For if it loses it's soul, it'll lose it's heart also.

  • i love this song. so solemn.. full of harmony. it makes me realize many things in life..

  • this song reaches out to everyone. such a fantastically written song.

  • this songs makes me , bring back to what my life was on my town when i was 7 years old before, it was so happy , i was playing with my childhood friends , and i still saw those who are already died now that i've grown up,.....

    but now it's sad because the town that you usually live before is different right now,.. some were gone , some may have pass by, as the year goes bye...

    it's sad,.... but THAT'S LIFE,, . . we must learn how to ACCEPT...

  • listening to this makes me want to leave the big city, and live a small village somewhere

  • i really loved this song it makes me feel like every thing i have lost is coming back to me again and every one i have loved and gone keep telling me to hold on and don't give up

  • this movie made me hate I-40, i know it sounds strange but it really did!

  • I have just moved back to a small town, had enough of the "big city" and of life so taken for granted there.

    It's my town, and I love it like I love my children.... Made me slow down and see what I was missing. Most of all, I fell in love with my wife all over again!

    Its been 25 years now... Come what may... I'm ready now.

  • this song reminds me of a friend that left for florida... we were like brother and sister, spending every sunday at church, going over to her house, watching movies, swimming, going on a trampoline, and when she moved to florida, i went to her house, and she wasn't there anymore. her house lost that smell that reminded me of her house. her christian icons were filled with non-humble art. i miss her so much.

  • i love this song...it makes me to cry...!

  • TIMELESS

  • The great thing about this song is "your town" could be a symbol for a lot of things. For example, a relationship that used to be good, but isnt anymore.

  • This movie sank my heart far more deeply than I ever imagined possible before watching it. Lasseter and Jobs, you are true geniuses.

  • Main street isn't main street anymore.My life sin't used to be before...

    very emotional..touching my heart.

    James~ you're great singer. thank u.

  • how does this only have like 75k views?...

  • I wish I could go back to the good days no worries about anything

  • i cry everytime i listen to this song. i think about my dad who passed away about a year ago. i wish i could go back to all the great times i had with him but i cant. my life has just become a nightmare, im a mess. however this song encourages me to be happier because thats what i know he would want.

  • *wipes tear*

  • awnsome

  • Just brilliance!! pure classic!!!

  • JAyala37, I wish I had a time machine, too. I would go back to the summer of '83. With my high school sweetheart in our hometown. It was over much too soon, and I go back in my mind almost every day. I wish I could re-capture what I lost. I haven't seen or talked to her in 26 years, and the only thing left is the memories.

  • @Tippecanoe1841

    lean on some good memories behind. it's our most precious treasure.

  • oh my God, it seems that everyone is nostalgic.. I thought it was only me:P amazing song

  • "Our Town" is the type of music that make you change your vision of life and realize

    how the life can be wonderfull in the simplest things or in those person that you don't speak after long years.

  • I wish I owned A time machine to go back in time every once in a while....................sweet memories

  • @JAyala37 HEY, SO DO I. ALL I HAVE IS MEMORIES AND NO ONE CARE'S.

  • reminds me of the past and how it should of been with me and my ex gf but its ok we have both moved on and now i m stronger from it, so thank you to her. My Adriane.

  • It's a wonderfull music. My city is small and cozy, like the city of this music. Express the feeling of all small cities of world: the afraid of oblivion of the rest of world.

  • the older you get the more the people you love leave you but thats just life

  • Why does the world have to change? Why do we have to grow older? Why can't we stay kids forever? *sniff sniff*

  • @Aussiemarco wow grow up crackhead your not cool

  • @Shadow2647 You're demonstrating why Americans suck puss. Fucker.

  • yes i agree with mayatuck this makes life worth living.

  • Polish text - Our Town

    Dawno temu,ale nie tak bardzo dawno temu,

    Świat był inny,O tak był,

    Zamieszkałaś w dolinie,wybudowałaś miasto,i sprawiłaś że ożyło,

    I patrzyłaś jak rosło,

    To było twoje miasto.

  • Czas mija,Czas przynosi zmiany,twoją zmianę też,

    Nie przychodzi nic z czym nie mogłabyś sobie poradzić,więc idziesz naprzód,

    Nigdy nie widząc tego przyjścia,świat się rozpada na ciebie,

    Na twoje miasto,

    Nic nie możesz zrobić.

    Główna ulica nie będzie główną ulicą nigdy więcej,

    Światła nie będą już tak radośnie świeciły jak przedtem,

    Powiedz prawdę, Światła nie świecą w całym,

    naszym mieście.

  • Słońce wschodzi każdego poranka, Tak jak zawsze to robiło, Wstać,pójść do pracy,zacząć dzień, Otworzyć firme,To nigdy się nie stanie, Gdy świat oddala się tak daleko o milion mil . Główna ulica nigdy już nią nie będzie, Nikt nie wygląda jakby nas potrzebował,tak jak wcześniej, Trudno odnaleźć powód by zostać, Ale to jest nasze miasto, Kochamy je bez względu na wszystko, Przychodzi co przyjść może,To nasze miasto.
  • @Czajopres i have no idea what that says but it looks cool.

  • Dear @hokie4life757, what you see is the text in Polish

  • We've been there. We love you. You are not alone.

    YOU ARE NEVER ALONE !!

  • Happy New Years, CrashJakFan. Try to be around people you love this Christmas and New Years. If you can't be around people you love, try to be around those you like. If you can't do that, try to bearound those you can tolerate (even if it is those you can barely tolerate).

  • I can't. I'm always in the house, not being called by friends.

  • Maybe you need to give them a nudge and call them. Doesn't always feel as rewarding as RECEIVING a call........but it's a start.

  • wooow take it easy xD fanny guy....this is not a movie.....

  • feeling isolated :S I watched your video on "my personal favorit video games" you take a goooooood look of that video clip and your self and reply me on this question why are you not called by your friends??
