This melts my heart, hope it does the same for everyone else listening ❤
I don't understand how some people have special voices that just feel completely comforting and magical. Kate Rusby is one of those people, James Taylor is another. And this is a gorgeous arrangement of a beautiful song!
😊
Kate , this is beautiful soothing to the soul ,Thank you.
That voice. That voice. That voice. That voice.
What else is needed to be said?
Such a beautiful voice and person ❤
This song moves me to tears, I remember the song from yester year, heard it a lot when I was young. I’ve loved Kate for 15 years and through the difficult last few years I didn’t listen to her much. Listened to angrier music. Only just recently been able to listen to her again, and today I found this song. It brings home to me the beauty and the purity of her voice and the beautiful lyrics of this song make it magical. A masterpiece 😊
Omg this to me is so so special.
A convergence of two majestic voices.
I'm taken back to the 1999 Cambridge folk festival where I saw Kate for the first time.
The main stage was graced with her singing "Jolly plowboys" and what a fitting precursor to James top of the bill performance later that evening. To have so much talent on one stage in one day was like a musical "spring tide"
I still have the program. It kicked off with Kate followed by such greats as Hal Ketchum, the battlefield band, Louden Wainwright III Suzie Boggus and almost last but not least, James Taylor. Standing in front of so many superstars on one stage literally 15 ft away was one of the best experiences of my life and 24 years later James posts that concert on his you tube channel. What a fitting tribute of Kate to cover this song thus cementing for me the connection of two master artists and so beautifully done. Thank you.
Born & raised in Central North Carolina, this song hits me right in the heart! James Taylor is one of my favorite singer-songwriters, and, he happened to grow up in Carrboro, NC which gave him the inspiration to write this beautiful song. Carrboro is about 45 miles east from our small town of Franklinville. I just recently discovered Kate, and I'm sure glad I did! Her rendition of this classic song is stunning & beautiful! Kate, you have a new fan to add to your long list of fans from around the world! 🙂♥
Every time I hear her sing, I am reminded of a quote from Peter Bradley Adams.
"I guess in this culture of ever shortening attention spans, it's good if a song can lift us out of the madness, even if only for a few minutes."
Thank you Kate for giving us great music.
I hope JT hears this and invites Kate to duet with him when he comes to England.
I'm crying ain't I.
Probably my favourite song ever! Thank you❤
Gosh. Such a beautiful voice. Love this song. I've heard Kate a few times - a late friend of mine was a big fan - but I've not heard this. Sweet Baby James must love it.
Miss you Rob, you grumpy old bugger.
What a gifted lady! Heart rending rendition. Thank you so much for this!
Only just started listening to Kate Rusby ,amazing vocals and a very beautiful woman, so looking forward to seeing her live in Halifax next year ❤️
Just love her keeping her true accent in her songs....so many singers lose that these days xxxx
I WISH you WOULD come across the pond...and down South! I would so love to see you here! What a gorgeous rendition, Kate...
Me too!
Me three
Me 4
You're killing me Kate..... wow
Thank you for these wonderful renditions and reminding everyone what good music sounds like 🎉
So special ,truly a one off......must confess i prefer her earlier music but still a magical voice
The crossover I never knew I needed. Beautiful!
Part of me wants Kate's popularity to explode, and another wants to keep her to myself. I never thought this song could be any better than the original.
Kate Rusty can make anything sound good
I love it, have the album
My favourite song by one of my favourite artists. And yet that alone is no guarantee that I'd like this cover. But I love it!
Absolutely, GLORIOUS! I put you up with Alison Krauss on this one!! Love your music, Kate.
Perfect, Kate. Sweet Baby James would be proud.
An beautiful version of this wonderful James Taylor song.
Strikes you right to the heart, both Kate and the lyrics.
Heard "Who Will Sing Me Lullabies" on After Life. I had to learn that song! I played it for a group of friends at our acoustic jam last month. I am over the moon that I have found this artist!
My favourit song of this amazing album!
What a voice, just perfect ❤️
Absolutely beautiful ❤
I listen to her all day. Her voice is therapeutic. In love
One day - aye I will see this wonderful lady in concert. I can't wait.
I had a wee greet at this. One of the first songs I learned when I bought my first guitar back in 19#%.😍 Wonderful, wonderful version Kate. Xxx
Here in the desert of Australia & in my mind I'm goin' back to ol' blighty for all the beautiful folk music ~ What a beautiful version 🙏💕 (love the tv idea!)
Qué maravilla, por Dios!! 4,5 minutos de absoluta felicidad….
She's the girl that wouldn't fly
She sang about it
stunning.
As someone who recently moved near where Taylor grew up, I'd love to hear you cover "Copperline" XD
Outstanding as always 😊
This is one of my favourites such a beautiful version Kate, I can’t wait to see you live again soon! Xx
How am I just…… I’m either drooling or crying. Maybe both, this is beautiful. The technique is wildly honed. But the emotions…. Wow.
FANTASTIC, beautiful song, sung by an equally beautiful voice 💓💗💓
Hypnotising
So, when will you be visiting the Carolinas?! Won't be making it across the pond any time soon and would love to hear you in person! Until then, thanks for the videos. ♥
My absolute favourite to listen to at the moment, made me have a little cry. Can’t wait to see you live again, it’s always a wonderful experience 💕
Always loved this song, and Kate just made me love it more.
Incredible.....
Beautiful, Very moving...
Brilliance!
Just beautiful Kate thank you
Such a beautiful version Kate. Clear thoughts in my mind slowly arrive in the meantime.
what a beautiful voice but i already knew she had.
I’m her biggest fan 😌
Beautiful Job
Beautiful, lovely
Oooh. Kate can sing so beautifully it can pierce you.
Kate should do more JT songs covers. Never die young, Boatman, Copperline, Shower the people, You can close your eyes, Jump up behind me... Other ideas?
Love this song Kate x
I found her on Spotify by luck. Totally in love with her!!!
I too just discovered Kate Rusby recently (Who Will Sing Me Lullabies). My all time fabourite version of Carolina on My Mind is still Melanie Safka's ruclips.net/video/tz0hB9rrmQA/видео.html Kate's is a very close second.
Her Christmas songs are just amazing...
I also love Kate, but I'm missing some 2nd & 7th chords James put in (his beautiful guitar playing) on this beautiful song.
Played and sung with feeling and sensitivity !
Wow. Just wow.
Utterly superb!!
It would be nice to hear some traditional folk from you Kate although I love anything you sing and write. My favourite of all time is Until Morning. I love James Taylor's singing too. Keep on keeping us entertained.
Hi Angela, there's lots of traditional folks songs in my back catalogue. :-)
Great arrangement and vocal xxx
Beautiful.☺️
In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
Can't you just feel the moonshine?
Maybe just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
Well Karen she's a silver sun
You best walk her way and watch it shinin'
Watch her watch the mornin' come
A silver tear appearing, now I'm cryin'
Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind
There ain't no doubt it no one;s mind
That love's the finest thing around
Whisper something soft and kind
Yes and hey babe the sky's on fire, I'm dyin'
Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind
In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine, sugar?
Can't you just feel the moonshine?
Maybe just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
Dark and silent late last night
I think I might have heard the highway calling
Geese in flight and dogs that bite
Other signs that might be omens say I'm going, going
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
And it's with a holy host of others standing 'round me
Still I'm on the dark side of the moon
And it seems like it goes on like this forever
You must forgive me
If I'm up and gone to Carolina in my mind
In my mind I'm goin', goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
Can't you just feel the moonshine?
Maybe just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
Said I'm goin' to Carolina
I better get back on home again real soon
'Cause I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind
Stunning!
Beautiful version!
Nice version
OK, seen & love this lass, but that first line? Pass the tissues...
Some more tunes kate cmon

Murdered it sadly
