James looks so proud of his handsome son. Almost as if he is looking at himself from a different place. How beautiful to experience!
My favorite James Taylor song. Great version
He was speaking of Henry on Colbert so I had to see what I could find of Henry Taylor on utube. You are so right - when he speaks of Henry you can just hear how proud he is of Henry and his talent. Hope to see more from Henry in future.
I wish he had the same pride in his amazingly talented son Ben, the son he abandoned when he was a junkie and who was raised by his first wife, Carly Simon.
Henry look so much like his dad and sounds wonderful too! James Taylor’s voice is a national treasure!!!!
No he does not.
Ben Taylor is his spitting image -- and sounds much more like him, too.
But James loathes Ben's mother, so . . .
JT is despicable, as far as I'm concerned.
@@mariab6389 I agree with you. Neither the appearance nor the voice ... Ben Taylor really looks like James 😍
@@mariab6389 Ben doesn't sound like his dad at all. Ben and Henry sound more similar. Ben has that quiet deep voice.
@@martingardner9124 We can agree to disagree.
When I heard him singing on a television ad, I mistook him for JT.
That's how similar they sound to me.

I’ve been listening to James for 50 years now, and he never disappoints. Cool to see him with his son!
Me too.
1974. The girls in my dorm, my floor, got together and replaced my record, his first, because they had worn the grooves out. Husband claims that's not possible with vinyl, but he doesn't understand teenage girls. (I think I'm about 30 still, so I have a hard time claiming that memory.)
I used to sign this to my youngest daughter every night when she was a baby....I surprised her on her wedding day and sang it to her at the reception
What?! Wow!! Beautiful.
Wow,way to make me cry! Beautiful!
Great story for a dad and daughter, the most treasured things in life are still free.
What a sensational father you are!
Douglas, my daughter's lullabies were Simon & Garfunkel's "59th street Bridge song (Feelin' Groovy)" ...and James Taylor's "Sweet Baby James." Lovely music.
We played this song at my husband's funeral. Such a beautiful simple song for breaking hearts.
I'm sorry for your loss. May the good LORD provide comfort and peace in your heart. In Jesus name. Amen.
@Sandy Peak May your husband’s memory continue to endure as a blessing.
What a beautiful song to play at the funeral.
I’ve asked to have some James Taylor music at my funeral. He has always brought me joy and comfort.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost the love of my life too. Here's to better days in better places.
I get goosebumps with just about any jt song I'm 64 my parents turned me on to him . I learn to play guitar to his songs and still play him today .I could listen to him all day
There is and will always be only one James Taylor. God bless him and keep him safe.
What a beautiful moment between father and son, and how wonderful that James has passed on the gift of music ♥
I think Carly is Ben’s mom, not Henry’s.
I was lucky enough to be present for this concert. This last song was so very touching and beautiful on so many levels. JT is indeed a national treasure.
I’d sing this to my baby boy (he has Down syndrome) when he was in Neonatal & later hospitalizations. He still loves to hear it today! Many thanks for posting and for the Taylor’s beautiful performance!
What a precious memory! How old is your boy now?
@@maryannturton9830 he’s 19 years and very much a ‘typical’ teenager … seemingly eats pizza for every meal; sleeps ‘till noon on non school days; wants to ‘look cool’ for the girls … but he still loves for me to sing to/for him ❤️
@@rockhead1428 That's great👍
Hi, Rock Head. I am also the father to a Down syndrome son. He tells me that he picked me to be his dad. Who am I to disagree? He is 16 and has survived leukemia, lymphoma, and is still not well. He is my hero and the man that I try to be.
All the best to you and yours. Bless you for singing to him, loving him like you do, and sharing it with others. We are so blessed to have these guys!
@@independentmusicguy thank you for reaching out to me and sharing your story! Brought tears to my eyes!
I sang this song to all my children, grandchildren and countless pediatric patients. Thanks for the memories.
Oh my God. Who wouldn’t want to be a child of James Taylor. Just love him. My heart is bursting with love. 🌸💕
I’d say this is pretty much a full circle moment for us JT junkies! I’ve lost count the number of times my best friend and I have seen JT. My two sons, now men, grew up listening to their mom serenade them acapella at nap or bedtime. Even thru Henry’s nervousness, the admiration and love for his father seemed present. I just love the two of them together. Thanks to whomever uploaded this.
Yeah 🧡 great and scary as hell too
The world will absolutely not be the same when we lose this tender soul.
Well, this old world will still be spinning around...if there is a world left.
So cute, you can see the proud Dad feeling that James has. What a beautiful memory for them both.
Beautiful song I've known by heart for 50 years and loved this with father and son!!!
This is my absolute favorite James Taylor tune & gave me goose bumps seeing him sing it with his son Henry. I’m a major fan & have been listening & following James since my 1st concert at age 12.
What a lovely way to start out listening to concerts!
Beautiful! You can tell how much they love each other.
I had bought an album of lullabyes for my baby son. The artist was a female folk singer, but I fell in love with song and saw that it was written by James Taylor.
I sang this to my son many times over 20 years ago.
What an amazing moment when James and Henry closed the concert out with this song a few nights ago.
I felt the moment was for me.
I've seen JT three times in an amphitheater arena, and have loved hearing him always; this one brought tears to my eyes. Go, Henry, carry on, carry on!
I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves😊😃 the song but when last did you play it.
@@ginocandia1516 is this comment your meme? You keep repeating it.
Glad I wasn’t the only one brought to tears on this song.
I'm a huge James Taylor fan seeing him live 4 or 5 times but to see his son Henry on the stage is awesome ! FIRE & RAIN will always be my #1 Favorite song with JT and it forever remain !!
Such a sweet song and a sweet moment. You can see the pride and love in James' face.
😊😊I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves the song but when last did you play it.
@@ginocandia1516 LOL, Oscar! Not all his fans are musicians or singers! Some of us are just good audiences!
@@amandawilcox9638 who I'm I talking to, are you a female how old are you?
Oh my. The Harmony just made my skin tingle
Saw this exact final song last night at their concert in Greensboro. Brought me to tears…it was emotionally overwhelming. “You can sing this song…when I’m gone.” 😢😞
My son used to ask me at bedtime: " Mommy, sing the blues"... Our baby lullaby. Priceless performance.
Played this for my Mom as she was dying from Dementia......even put it on her Zoom funeral at the end as a tribute. Needless to say, got rather choked up when I saw this in ATL last Tuesday.
I was there but we left early to miss the traffic.
But thank God for RUclips!
Oh JT and Henry! My heart is overflowing hearing your duet of this favorite, beautiful song. Father and son~how sweet it is. The sound of your guitars and voices together just about does me in. I hope, hope, hope you might do this at Tanglewood next 4th of July (we've been waiting a year and a half to be there for the annual 4th of July concert!!)
oh my, beautiful! I remember when Henry and his brother Rufus were born....JT came to Chapel Hill in 2003 and for a ceremony in his honor and mentioned his twin boys then....amazing to see this in 2021!
I can't tell you how beautiful I find this rendition with father and son. My heart is bursting with love for both of you!
Same amazing sound we enjoyed last Saturday night in NOLA! James and Henry are just incredible as a duo. I’ve listened to James since the late ‘60’s or very early ‘70’s - he’s my all-time favorite musician, and I’m delighted that Henry has joined his dad in so many gigs. Looking forward to many more concerts and recordings. 💞
The sweetest rendition of the sweetest song ever...
the apple definitely doesn't fall far from the tree!!! Great moment between father and son! He learned from the best!
So very lovely - one of my favorite songs ever. I sang it my children every night for years. I can’t sing it without choking up.❤️
Just listen to this song James still sounds good and his son has a really nice voice The Sun also reminds me a lot of James Taylor when he was younger they look a lot alike
That was absolutely wonderful. Talent runs in the family!
I love this song. I also love the rendition that Carly Simon did with Sally & Ben, James' older children. Hauntingly beautiful.
There's a video of the three of them on Oprah that's got terrible audio.
He ADORES his boy ❤️
I saw James and Jackson in Philly last night. What a beautiful evening of music! This was such a sweet moment. Thank you for capturing it!
I’m seeing him tonight in NY
I can’t wait I’ve wanted to see him my whole life
I already know to bring the tissues because it’ll be an emotional concert for me 💕💕💕💕
I was there too! Amazing 👏 Camden, NJ
I saw them at Pine Knob. Henry sang backup, but didn't do a duet with his dad.
@@hsoderberg9929 ....and I saw him in Louisville! We didn't get this duet, though, but Jackson came back out.
@@hsoderberg9929 I went in Chicago. We didn't get this either (Nor did we get You've Got a Friend as we always do when I see him). I planned to go back closer to home but that was canned due to circumstances beyond my control.
Kind of amazing when you look at the Taylor family history of musicians...Kate, Alex, Livingston, James, and now his son(s).
And Daughter. and I do believe there might be a nephew/maybe a niece too.
When I hear James Taylor I can smell the Appalachian trail,snow covered mountains of Colorado,and the California coast. Danny here in Puerto Rico.
James looks quite proud of his son!!🥰
I am happy he has such a beautiful son to hopefully carry on the tradition of great singing.
How proud his mom and dad must be! I’m moved to tears.
Apple doesn’t fall from from the tree - what a pleasure ❤️
They are both so proud of each other and the relationship they have. So very cool. If they never set foot on another stage again, they would still have this very special bond as father and son.
This is James Taylor's best work, I heard it on a TV show when I was a teenager fell in love with it, I've sense learned to play it on guitar. It never gets old. So many chords in this song I can't even remember what they are now.
I remember the show was The Wonder Years, Kevin was the main character.
Whinny was the girl Kevin had a crush on in the show.
Watched this at work. Coworkers asking why I have goosebumps.
So nice! Always loved that tune. Out of his 3 sons, Henry looks the most like JT did at that age.
i’d have to disagree. Ben looks far more like James, they’re almost a carbon copy of the same person. Ben also sounds exactly like his father. Henry has a nice voice but he doesn’t have the voice that Benjamin and James have
@@elijahcambry3319 agree
@@elijahcambry3319 agree 💯
@@elijahcambry3319 Ben looks like his mother, sounds like James.
Is Carly Simon his mom?!
This song always brings me to tears. I played this one at my husbands funeral.
Fantastic!! Love seeing it come full circle as it did with Ben. Henry sounds so much like his dad, yet has his own style as well. Especially on electric guitar. Thanks for sharing this. Great video!!
If you told me that Angels dance to this duet, I'd believe you.
🤦🏻♀️Why's there a tear, running down my cheek?
🇨🇦✌🏻🎶🎸✍🏻♥️✨🌍💫
I loved it then. I love it now in 2021…..Thank u!
Loved it, and you can see in that JT nod that he is passing this song to his son when he is gone.
Yes. I can tell he's "passing the torch".
PS to my comment: The pride and love in JT's eyes for his son is beautiful to behold.
So beautiful, bring tears to my eyes. Just wonderful.
It's heartwarming how many people have commented "I sang this to my babies." I don't have any offspring, but I have sung it to many babies over the years....
And here is the new generation of fantastic JT music!! Does Henry have any aspirations of following in his father’s footsteps?? Sure would be a wonderful thing!! Love you guys!!
always so good. henry can sing. i would love to see ben and sally singing with dad too.
😊😊I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves the song but when last did you play it.
Ben and his dad did a side by side tour one year. Unlike how Jackson Browne opens and JT does his own set and they duet at the end of each one this one started out just James Taylor and then Ben joined him and they did songs by both (JT & Ben songs) over two sets.
@@ginocandia1516 Okay, you're just odd.
So glad to see you safe & sound and out sharing your music as your meant to do! Love you!
The harmony is perfect and so pretty! Thank you, such an honor!
Lovely. Handsome men too!.(I've loved the song for decades!)
I met my husband at the tender age of 13 & he was 14 yrs. old. Everyone would try and separate us. Parents, school, siblings, friends, church friends, even the state ( we were "too young"). I would sit with his head in my lap and I would sing this song to him. We longed to be together and he could "stay as long as he liked". We married at 16 yrs old, and we are still deeply in love. He can now, and forever stay as long as he likes! This was a precious thing to watch and see the love of a parent and child. Brings back many sweet memories to this old woman of 65! Thank you for the post. A real treat in many ways!
Henry just needs the mustache...I grew up singing to James Taylor's songs...thank you James...and Henry..
I just saw them close the show with this song ..last night outside Seattle..
we were all 😢 crying because it was so beautiful ❤️🌈 . Thanks 🙏 James
Saw. JT. 40 years ago. Music Hall in Cincinnati Ohio. It was one of the best concerts I have ever been too.
So good! They played it last nite, Dec 11,2021 in Columbus, Ohio! It was the best concert ever!!!
What a special moment together! Love you both!
Oh goodness, this is a treat to see. Henry is such a fine looking young man too
We had front row. It was amazing.
Omg! Treasure your memories, Dorothy!
One of my very favorite songs of all time. Beautiful, enduring.
brings me overwhelming peace
Just at saw them do this together a few weeks ago, Sunrise FL. Sang it to my babies… now 38 and 47❣️
I was just a teenager, but I was so broken hearted when James and Carly broke up. I don't know why, but those two together really seemed to have an impact on me to this day. It is just so unbelievable how swift the years pass. Just so darn swift.
Dads love their sons … you can sing this song when I’m gone.
Really really beautiful
Fabulous! I met Livingston Taylor at a college campus in Maryland in 1971. He is James Taylor's brother. Livingston said that he was a pre law student. I was only 17 or 18 y/o and thought that Livingston was easy to look at and had a fine voice.
Daddy and Son...Mirroring.....beautiful...not just in golf....absolutely lovely
😊😊I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves the song but when last did you play it.
I love this song.
Henry...your father is a legend..!! Your a good musician..run with it..!! You already have a better start in life than 95% of us do. Go for it...and don't look back !!....😊😊😊
I think I need to go to Halifax the spring to see and hear these two again!
We all did much right. We can celebrate the beauty in our children. We will live forever in their smile.
Magic and Grace you two!🇨🇦♥️
James is our national treasure.
Beautiful, precious Father and Son duet
Priceless !!!
The way Henry looks at his dad is priceless. How cool to share the gift of music.
We all are praying for good things🤗❤️
One of my all time favorites 🤗❤️
I love this song, learned it 30 years ago, played/sang it to my son's at bed times often.🙂
A great moment. James, you are the best. Henry, maybe the future best.🙂
So blessed to see this for the first time tonight. What a moment for his son to accompany him on one of his greatest pieces. A priceless moment of his journey!!!!!!!!!
who are the 61 deaf people who gave this a thumbs down??? I was at this show and this was a highlight for sure...Copperline was also about perfect this night as well.
Handsome lad and proud dad~
Beautiful ❤️ thank you 😊 for sharing this 💖
Taylor is a national treasure
Goosebumps. They sound so wonderful together. What a gift.
James Taylor 's son is handsome and talented too. Like father like son.
That was wonderful. Your son is adorable, James. Best to your family.
It was beautiful song
Brings me to tears.
How tall is Henry. Man he makes James look small and James is tall. Wow! Regardless, a timeless tune done beautifully.
Not much taller than his dad I don't think.
@@martingardner9124 haha…. Whattt?
The person that Henry REALLY makes look small is Dorian Holley. Take a look at the bows from one of the shows where You've Got a Friend finished the show. The way they arrange the formation is all males on one side: Henry between the other two, JT in the middle, women + Jackson Browne on the other side.
Beautiful. One of my fav JT songs!
