He was on his way to a concert in my hometown when he and others were killed in the plane crash, I had friends with tickets to the concert, I was in jr high school, beautiful voice so sad
Photographs and Memories shatters me every time I listen to it, so I avoid it these days unless I feel like a good cry. Operator gets me, too, in the same loss-and-regrets pain that Croce sings so well.
Thank you for this song....one of the earliest memories of music in my life...my parents played his music all the time...I was maybe 10 at the the time but I remember it fondly, thank you.
That was a love song for his wife, I think in an interview that he had difficulty saying words to her directly but it was easier for him to put it to music.
You guys are speaking truth and common sense I never said I love you to my Mother I tried more to show by actions but when she passed I look back and wish I had said like Stevie Wonder these three words short and simple I Love You.
Jim Croce wrote and performed songs that my parents and we kids loved. Was a tragedy when he died.

react to "photographs and memories" another song of his along with his other hits, that just makes me "tear up' for decades now...

Jim is a LEGEND
This is just so beautiful!
I enjoy watching and listening to the both of you so much! Thank you for all the work you put into these videos!

A great song.
He wrote that one night for his wife after a minor argument, I think that's why it's so short. He sung it to her......he really did, not folklore.
MrRondonmon saw that sad sweet interview with his wife where she told this story ❤️😢
Just Another Great Song from the 70's of my youth
Best songwriter ever IMO. Try Croce's "Lover's Cross" or "These Dreams". Cheers!
Croce wrote this song for his wife Ingrid after they had an argument......
This man had some great hits....
We had this played at our Mum's funeral.
Croche..guilty pleasure..:)
The shame about those days and music is the 'required' length of a 'hit' song. Tragic now looking back. This was another masterpiece cut short.
Nice one, you can also his song Time in a bottle,god bless
Jim Croce made 'campfire' type songs. Don't even need good singers. Just someone to play a guitar.
This song is from a time when love songs were written as a personal letter between two people. Not like today.
You two are such a hot couple, and very insightful.
He wrote this in one night for his wife after they had an argument.
Jim croce dies and james taylor is still alive should be the other way around
