Go To Hell, Asshole! There are a LOT of people who don't like him. He embarrassed our country throughout the world with his low life self indulgence and desires. I'm entitled to my opinion of him. So 'F' You!

@CRenee127 you're an idiot.

Amazing. Don't know how he kept it together on stage, seeing all those people holding up pictures of their lost loved ones.

James Taylor, good job.

[CRenee127]

The only thing I did NOT like was Bill Clinton. . . He just HAD to say "a good friend of Hillary and mine. . ." He's always propping himself up with some celebrity. I can't stand that man!

Very moving to see this i was only 9 when it happened so this is my first time watching this.

[mrBLUDOGGY]

Clinton acts like he's at a birthday bash. No respect for the victims. It's always about him. James Taylor on the other hand is very somber and respectful.

Been said before, I know, but how very fitting the words, "But I always thought I'd see you again." God Bless America on September 11, 2011...and always.

I remember gasping when I heard him sing, "sweet dreams & flying machines in pieces on the ground," and bursting into to tears. The irony of those words - written so long ago - and becoming so appropriate - stunned me. Thank you, James Taylor, for sharing this with NYC & the world. G-d bless you ~
