I was there on the very day, January 12 1985, the very first Rock in Rio Festival.It was magical seeing this man performing live, being a Brazilian ,not from Rio though,to me is a special treat knowing that he wrote such a beautiful song!
I think i've listened to the video version at least a hundred time and quite possibly many more over the years. It never fails to touch my heart, when they circle the statue of the Christ. I didn't know there was a studio version and it's just as lovely and meaningful. Someone commented that it is his hidden masterpiece and it really is just that.
Era criança quando essa música foi lançada, e mesmo ela tendo mais de 30 anos, quando a ouço me arrepio toda, e é como se eu estivesse ouvindo pela primeira vez. Lindo ele cantando o refrão em português 😍😍😍
RIO DE JANEIRO! \o/ BARRY WHITE - RIO DE JANEIRO James Taylor - Only A Dream In Rio Trio Rio - New York, Rio, Tokyo The Girl From Ipanema - Frank Sinatra & Antônio Carlos Jobim
A sonoridade, os arranjos dessa canção nos remete a viajar! Defini absolutamente o Rio de Janeiro. O som ao fundo dos pássaros faz lembrar o Jardim Botânico e a linda paisagem do Estado do Rio. Tive oportunidade de conhecer e achei simplesmente surreau, lindo demais!
Wow.. JT singing live over the recorded track! - Amazing. Just look how happy he is to be newly clean and sober, for life. Thanks for the post. Love it!

you can trust the people of paradise to call your keeper and tender your goodbyes .......best lyric. The lovely true people in the ghettos of Rio, we love you and all you give.
"Quando a nossa mãe acordar, andaremos ao sol/ quando a nossa mãe acordar, cantará pelo Sertão/ Quando a nossa mãe acordar, todos os filhos saberão/ Todos os filhos, saberão/ E regorzijarão! " 🙏🙏 I Believe it! I'm Brazilian and this part, always make me goosebumps! It's so beautiful!!! 😭😭
IKR? I've been bargaining with God for years to keep JT alive forever... or at least until I'm gone. Fact is he's only 11 years older than me so maybe my prayer will be answered! 😊❣️
My late husband took us to mgm Grand (10-11-11-one month after the hellish carnage in nyc). The love, emotion that we all experienced that magic, was a balm for every soul present. Thank you everso, sweet baby James!!!!!👼💛💗💛💙💜💚❤👼
Na Terra Carioca desde 1497 sempre o som e a Música. Carioca Heart music pulses through the drums of the Indians. Carioca pride of the Americas as the first gentile in America, given by our Indian ancestors.

É super linda demais essa música de tantos anos atrás é extremamente excelente pra gente relembrar muita saudade de uma passado bastante coisa linda demais é muita saudade 💞💋👁️👁️💕💔💞👫💋💔🙈
@James Taylor Yes and why not?I have adimiration by your work on music.Ever lising your music befor of sleep on RUclips.Are beuthul music and want lising more.
2:55 Caught in the rays of the rising sun On the run from the soldier's gun Shouting out loud from the angry crowd The mild, the wild, and the hungry child
This isn’t the album version. If this is the official video, that is really neat though I don’t actually remember ever seeing this video at the time it came out. Most official videos used the original recording, whereas the vocals here, at least were recorded live. This is a beautiful song and reminds me of my Freshman year in college out in the Boston area. My friends and I were huge fans and I recall seeing JT at Great Woods that year- in the rain. Even still it was beautiful.
My favorite James Taylor song.
You can say only one favorite??? I never can't. Only one?? Ufff
Nós do Rio que agradecemos por essa porção de amor vinda da sua letra james!
Love all of James Taylor's hits, however, 'Only a Dream in Rio' and 'Never Die Young' are my favorites.
I was there on the very day, January 12 1985, the very first Rock in Rio Festival.It was magical seeing this man performing live, being a Brazilian ,not from Rio though,to me is a special treat knowing that he wrote such a beautiful song!
yesssss me 😊
TRULY his hidden masterpiece. This tune is as good as Fire and Rain or anything he ever wrote. This is beyond incredible
Couldn't agree more! This is an all time great JT song but there is a better version on RUclips
❤
Agree ☺️
Beautiful music, beautiful poetry
Beautiful so peaceful thankyou
Thank you a million times for this beautiful song - the best you ever wrote..
One of my favorite song, from Mr. Taylor 🧑🎸🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Such a beautiful song straight from and to the ❤ heart. Thank you James
Perfection.
I'm in tears. I've always loved this song. What artistry. I miss that kind of beauty in music.

The man & his music....TIMELESS!
So beautiful. Love how you sing the last several lines too - takes you deeper. Thanks JT!
it's very hard for me to 'pick' one "best" song from J.T.'s opus but this one is so close...
Eu era criança, mas lembro como se fosse hoje a primeira vez que ouvi essa música! Me veio uma paz indescritível...
So many years so many emotions Lord let him stay many more...
Angela, I hope for the same. Blessings to you..JT is ENORMOUSLY Special
IKR? I've been bargaining with God for years to keep JT alive forever... or at least until I'm gone. Fact is he's only 11 years older than me so maybe my prayer will be answered! 😊❣️
