Thanks guys! The world needs to hear this more than ever. JT’s music should never be forgotten ✨he often did his own background vocals and was married to Carly Simon
Carly Simon is singing backup on this. This always was a favorite song of JT for me in the 70s!
David....not much love in the world day I'm this crazy world...politics.
When the Beatles started their own record label the first artist they signed was James Taylor. He is the pride of New England. 😊
James Taylor has ties in the south also, he has written several songs about the state of North Carolina, perhaps he was born there? There is a bridge named after him in the town of Chapel Hill.
@@chrisoakley5830 HIs Mom was from Massachusetts & his Dad was from North Carolina. James was born in Boston, but his physician father accepted a position at the Univ of Carolina medical school and moved the family down to Chapel Hill. His Dad later became the Dean of the medical school. James & his siblings spent the school yr in NC and their summers in Martha's Vineyard in MA.
@@lla788 Thank you very much for this information, as I said, I knew there was a connection to the Chapel Hill, NC area but I didn't know the exact details. I live in NC about 30 minutes from Chapel Hill, so his songs about our state are very enjoyable to me.
@@chrisoakley5830 Did u ever see the Chapel Hill house? It was up for auction about 6 yrs ago and they were giving tours of it. I believe they were calling in the James Taylor house - even though his family moved back to MA years ago. I think JT may have gone down to see it again- not sure. It was a very cool looking house.
@@lla788 No, I never knew about that but wish I had known. It would have been cool to check it out.
He's a master guitarist and prolific songwriter. Still gives lessons (free) on his website. Voice like butter.👍💕
Asia & BJ, You’ll love his “You’ve Got A Friend”(cover), “How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You)”, “Your Smiling Face” and many more!!!
He’s one of the great singer/songwriters and guitarists!!
I was fortunate enough to get to know James a little and I can tell you he is a genuine person soft spoken and cares about others , his fans are very important to him because he didn't forget were he started and who put him where he is. After the last concert I ran in to him after the show he sat on stage for hrs to make sure he signed all the fans shirts and other things, the stage was torn down and the security people and crew knew he wasn't going to leave till the fans were all gone.
The James Taylor that you are referring to is JT Taylor who was the lead singer of Kool and the Gang on many of their biggest hits. This James Taylor has been a huge star since around 1971. He is one of the best songwriters of our time, and he tours almost all the time, even now at 75. The background singers on this song were Carly Simon (whom he was married to) and James Taylor.
@Judith Hill Lol...I fixed it!
This reminds me of driving on the family vacation in the 70’s. Our station wagon all loaded up and my sister and I sitting in the back listening to these type songs on the radio! Priceless! ❤️🔥🎶
James Taylor has such a nice voice
JT is like a saint in our house, and this song is ONE of the reasons why.
It's gonna be a bad, BAD day for a lot of people when James passes.
Let's not think about that, he's still singing and bringing the world happiness.
What about everybody else that's passing with all this horrible violence.
Amen. So glad I FINALLY got to see him live a couple of years back, with Jackson Browne opening. Like watching my childhood right there on stage. It was awesome!
@@nettiemac That must have been surreal. I sometimes stop and marvel at how many legends I've been relatively "close to" in a concert setting. It would be a trip to be in JT's presence.
Nothing makes me more nostalgic than hearing a James Taylor song. Somehow, his voice and his songs were always 'right there' at times that were so important and formative for me in my 20s. 50 some years later, he takes me back...
If you have a broken heart don't run away and hide and be by yourself. Shower the people you love with love show them the way that you feel. Don't run and hide let the people you love help you
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Young JT's voice is, so uniquely innocent and American.
I just love James Taylor, he sings from his heart, all his lyrics are so relatable (I also had a huge crush on him,Lol). Thanks Asia and BJ
A James Taylor song that I believe u will really like is "Don't Let Me be Lonely Tonight" It was a big hit, & has a great sax solo by David Sanborn. It's not folk rock, it has more of jazz twist. James Taylor wrote all kinds of songs
I got to see JT and Jackson Browne in concert last year. So glad I did as they both are treasures. Back in the 70s I win this album by calling in to a radio station contest. I wore the album out.
James Taylor is definitely a talented artist, so many great classic songs
Never get weary of James Taylor’s golden voice ❤
You need to see the live version this song that he did at President Obama's first inauguration concert in 2008, with John Legend, Jennifer Nettles and Arnold McCuller. Always brings tears of joy to my eyes & makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck!
A timeless message that will keep this song forever relevant. By the way, yes, that's his (then) wife, fellow music legend Carly Simon on BGV's. They collaborated a lot on each other's work throughout the 70's.
Check out some live versions of this with Arnold McCuller. Unreal. As for Jame JT Taylor… was former lead singer for Kool and the Gang.
Amen
Thank you for doing this reaction. This is one of my favorite JT tunes. "Whenever I See Your Smiling Face" is also awesome.
Esp. when he hits the high note! My oldest sister had this album.
Check out My Town, and Copper line by James Taylor.
Been waiting a long time for someone to react to this. It's my favorite James Taylor song. He has so many great hits. Thanks.
The man's voice is like butter, crisp clean and you can always understand every word he sings.
He is an incredible writer also, a master with the lyrics.
Thank you so much for posting this. For saying these things that need saying. We need to tell the people we love that we love them. We are all one family, all brothers and sisters. Let’s feel the joy in that.
I had the pleasure of seeing this performed live in Seattle about five years ago. Absolutely gorgeous. Tell ‘em how you feel while they are alive to appreciate it.
Love JT. And love this song. ✌
james taylor is a living legend
A superstar of folk rock. A legend of legends with dozens of unforgettable tunes including You’ve Got a Friend which was written by his lifelong friend, Carole King. His tune Mexico is incredible and Suite z for 20G!
There are no bad James Taylor songs! 😊
To me, James Taylor is “the 1970s”, an absolute legend!! He is definitely one of my very favorites from my teenage years. Still a huge fan after all these years!
This song and "Gone to Carolina in my mind" are 2 of my favorite James Taylor songs 🎵 Just saw him in concert about 5 years ago, He still sounds good live !
This is always been my favorite James Taylor song. If only people would really listen
Also check out James Taylor's You Got A Friend, Fire And Rain , Handyman and Steamroller.
It’s a great song. Been following you guys for years. Always line and comment if I have something worthy to say. Love you guys.
I’m disabled now. My husband had a heart attack last year and then a toe amputation (a Purple Heart veteran). My 87 year old mom has had an auto accident and two falls. I’m caretaker for both. We have mold in our house we’ve been living with for a year and we think the Legion people will be able to help us soon. I’m not saying this for pity or anything. Just that you’re highlighting people who donate and we can’t. Doesn’t mean we don’t love the reactions, love the music. And I know you have to make a living - why I’m subscribed and always like the videos I see. Just know there’s people out here here who adore you but can’t contribute. ❤
There are few singers that you never get tired of hearing their voice, and JT is one of those. By far my favourite song of his.
You should ALWAYS do James Taylor songs live, he's way more blues-y & soulful in his live performances. One of the best all-time singer-songwriters!
Sweet baby James is a true legend. I'm very happy a new generation is appreciating his music
Asia and BJ you both are Awesome 😎 Helping to keep the Classic Music Alive ✌️
James Taylor wrote so many great songs. He had some great duets with Carole King and worth checking out.
Love this song!
Sweet Baby James was my first album of his, it’s a must do reaction ✌🏼
If you want to hear a rendition of this song that will blow your mind, check out the live performance at the Beacon Theater where he lets Arnold absolutely steal the show with a solo. Breathtaking!
Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight is a really great song that you might want to check out, by JT. Since I have a forever 32- year old son, I am constantly reminding my 18 y/o grandson, (and other sons, also, of course), about making sure not to have any missed opportunities. Also, I ALWAYS say I love you, last words before hanging up or parting, since i distinctly remember that it was the last thing i said to my son. JT and Carly were married many many years ago and I don't believe it was for very long. They did do a song Mockingbird together that is on YT.
"HANDY MAN"..... JT WAS A PLAYER...!
"SOMETHING IN THE WAY SHE MOVES"...!
"YOUR SMILING FACE"...!
"HOW SWEET IT IS TO BE LOVED BY YOU"...!
That's Carly Simon singing the harmony with James in this song.. They were together during this time era..
Tell me how can you stand there with your broken heart ashamed of playing the fool. Such a great line.
My favorite James Taylor song..
One of my favorite songs by James Taylor, but really anything he sings is great.
On his live performances he tried something that no one has ever tried, he has the back up singers on a reel to reel tape recorder, and it was edited to the point that when they are not needed the recorder/player shuts off, either by remote control or unplugging it, and when they are needed it turns on again, it was very precise timing. I've never seen anyone else do that.
Great song !! Great reaction guys... You guys should react to "Love will Follow" Kenny Loggins & Shanice, Live from the Redwoods !!! I think you'll love it...
Hey guys.. try James and Carly Simon..Mockingbird 😂 fun song❤😊😮😅
ha ha I love this artist and song...some folks don't get James.
Love James Taylor. He did a cover version of Sam Cook's "Wonderful World" (lyrics: Don't know much about history ... don't know much biology ... etc.) together with Paul Simon and Art Garfunkle which is just wonderful. I think it's on an album by Garfunkle. Anyway, you ought to give a listen to that one -- it's great!
You should listen to the live version of this. In fact the live versions of all his music. It just takes you to a great place. Listen to "Shed a Little Light." Live
Thanks so much for this guys, it's such a lovely song which resonates strongly with me. There's also a lovely version of this song by The Dixie Chicks which they sang to James on one of his special tribute nights and he loved it and so did they too. What an amazing songbook JT has made for all of us to enjoy. God bless him.
Traffic Jam is one of his best!
Like a lot of James Taylor songs. Most if not all of his songs are straightforward. His Nephew is named James. Brother Alex named him after his Brother. So cool!
love your reviews. may i suggest you do "Paul Simon - Under African Skies (from The Concert in Hyde Park)" this concert is full of great songs " Obivous child ". Graceland Just these songs
are worthy of a listen obivous child will engulf you with happiness
Carolina In My Mind & Sweet Baby James! ❤
BJ ....you are SPOT ON!!! SHOWER!!
Carly Simon THAT'S THE WAY I'VE ALWAYS HEARD IT SHOULD BE
Bout time , James is 1 of the best
Carly Simon possibly on this, but it's Carole King you may have heard duetting "You've Got A Friend" which she wrote and gave to him.
Should have used a live version with Arnold McCuller’s solo break!
One of my two favorite JT songs, the other is "Carolina in my Mind"
One of my favorites!❤
James Taylor just has that way of making you smile u know, thanks u guys , love James Taylor ✌️
WONDERFUL
Back listening and watching again ❤
Amen brother
I have loved JT since I was a wee lass. But true story about this song: I thought he was singing “Showerdy People” - and as a kid who was still into bubble baths , I thought he meant that there were Bathy People (like me) and Showerdy People (like the adults I knew). I think I was in middle school when I figured out it was Shower THE People…. So silly!!
So lovely.. always ❤️
Love James Taylor. What a great singer songwriter. His style is more folk rock. I grew up with his music & had some of his records. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 100 million records worldwide. Some of his hits are "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You)", "You've Got A Friend", "Handy Man", "Sweet Baby James", "Carolina in My Mind", "Your Smiling Face" etc. He was married at one time to Carly Simon. They had a few duets together including "Mockingbird" & "Devoted To You".
Sweet Baby James....yes. You know your JT. Well done.
Yep, and that’s just scratching the surface!! So many great songs by James Taylor. I love “Don’t Be Sad ‘Cause Your Sun is Down”, “Captain Jim’s Drunken Dream”, “Nothing Like A Hundred Miles”, “Another Grey Morning”, “Bartender’s Blues”, “Terra Nova”, “Mexico”, “Something in the Way She Moves”, “Honey, Don’t Leave L.A.”, “Handy Man”, Secret ‘O Life”, “Traffic Jam”, “Sweet Baby James”, “You’ve Got A Friend”, “You Can Close Your Eyes”, “Fire and Rain”, “Carolina in My Mind”, “Country Road”, “ Copperline”, “Sunny Skies”, “Blossom”, “Anywhere Like Heaven”, just to name a few!! 😊
Love James Taylor. Johnnie Taylor also has many great hits such as I Believe in You and Soul Heaven.
James Taylor helped me get through some difficult times.
I wanted to let you guys know Chris Stapleton and Allen Stone are touring together this summer they will be in Houston, Tx. Choctaw and El Paso too. ❤
The James Taylor, U2 are thinking of is James Taylor who is the lead singer of Kool and the gang but he just goes by JT a lot
great song. sorry for my absence just got a new computer so finally back
Welcome Back!
another university of North Carolina Grad making me proud!
Carolina on my Mind please. Or Country Road by JT please.
Love his music, my mom plays him a lot
Love you guys!
No disrespect to any other but this is THE James Taylor 😊
❤
James Taylor's brother is named Livingston.
Such a good hot from him, I've heard this one off and, on the radio, he has a nice soft mellow voice.
You guys were thinking about James "JT" Taylor formerly of Kool & the Gang.
His live at the Beacon Theatre is awesome try handyman and up on a roof
JT!!!!
You guys were thinking of Johnnie Taylor.
Hi you beautiful souls. Will you please get around to two songs that I have just discovered and absolutely love. Ren featuring Eden Nash, Humble and Ocean, think you will approve! Love ya both ❤️ (Ren Kees finding new ways to amaze me) 😂
❤️🔥
Alluding to your Smooth reaction.... Rob Thomas is the lead vocalist and founder of " Matchbox Twenty" and your both wrong about " Maria, Maria" written by Carlos Santana and Wyclef John.....Peace out!!
Tracy Lawrence - I See It Now
💚
☮️💜
JT❤❤❤
3:51 Chicago time...Maybe you are thinking about Johnny Taylor who did Disco Lady , Soul Heaven and Who's Making Love( To Your Old Lady).
Actually they're thinking of James "JT" Taylor, the lead singer for Kool and the Gang.
If you get a chance to see JT in concert, GO! You will not regret it😊
Hi guys! I'm a new sub here, though I've been enjoying your videos for a long time! I have a question... Your opening song - is that Asia??? If so she has a GORGEOUS voice! :) Love your vids! I'm a gay white dude in Virginia and I think you guys are AWESOME! :) Keep up the great vids!
