Taylor Swift and James Taylor sing "Fire and Rain" also "Fifteen"

Taylor informs the crowd that in chorus the only song she liked was "Fire and Rain" by James Taylor. She then finds out from her mother that she was named after James Taylor. Taylor and James sing "Fire and Rain" and then James stays on stage and plays guitar while Taylor sings "Fifteen"

watching this video made me start crying because just think: how happy she must have been in that moment...to sit side by side and play with the man you're named after...wow. Nobody deserves this happiness and recognition more than Taylor. I have met her and she's the most fantastic, sweet, kind person you could ever meet in your entire life. She is so incredible and I am so happy she got this moment. Long Live Taylor (both of them) : )

{{ Someone asked if TAYLOR SWIFT can get any bigger }} --> When one of the greatest singer song writers of (all time) sings with you ( and bows to you ) at your last concert of the year! {{ That is called epic }} --> The passing of the song writers torch to Taylor --> The tale of 2 TAYLOR'S

When I sit here and listen to this I am so glad to love singers like James Taylor and Taylor Swift rather then listening to the electronic crap that all other people on my age are obsessed with..

Swift said that this was one of her top 4 moment on the Ellen Degeneres Show.

Taylor (Swift) is clearly on cloud 9 even ... cloud 13 ;) during the whole performance .

I flew from England to go and see the last two New York shows, and on the second night we got chosen to be moved to the front row by one of Taylors people as an alternative for T-Party as there wasn't one that night. I still can't believe i got to be front row in Madison Square Garden for this song! <3

James Taylor is amazing, that's a given. But to see his finger-picking style when Taylor Swift and the backup band are pick-strumming, it's humorous to watch. Because I can't really tell if he's playing compared to everyone else's arms strumming. :p

I think it would be an honor for any new or old artist to share a stage with James Taylor, and from her intro it was no less for Taylor, she is truly an amazing Young Lady, and how Gracious is JT not to upstage anyone he is sharing a stage with, what a Gentleman. Loved the video, glad you shared it, and it was done very well, as oppsed to back row trying to zoom in, Great job.
