Me and my Dad shared this song as a connection that holds us together through the distance of growing apart, lovingly, my dad, my best friend and hero, dying of cancer. I will love you always and remember my daddy! I will miss you. My special gift from God. When you pass on, Dad, I will always ❤️ you and sing this song to the sky. ❤❤❤❤ Thank you God for blessing me with the most loving father.
I can promise you that your friend is truly at rest now. A couple years ago I lost my wife, mother to my son, and my best friend, so I truly know your pain. Just know that our spirit, our soul is truly eternal, and this human existence is but a glimpse of what we truly are, and what we’ve got ahead of us. I hope you can find peace in knowing that your friend is by no means gone, they’re just on the other side of a mountain that is in between the two of you. One day, that mountain will be moved and the two of you will be reunited. Take care, fellow human 🙏🙂
Life is so hectic, but James Taylor is one of only a handful of recording artists/singers that put me at peace almost immediately. So glad he’s been and always will be a part of my musical life. ‘Love Always’ Proverbs 3:5
I heard this song a week ago and every hair stood up on my neck. I was instantly transported back to my 9 year old self. It’s bedtime and I’m huddled amongst some old musty smelling cream wool blankets , I’m alone in a pitch black room. There’s a creaking around me and a whistle of wind coming in through the cracked rickety window. Theres a scratching noise behind the skirting boards. Usually scary but insignificant now compared to the excruciating throbbing pain in my heart that keeps taking my breath away. My whole body ached like never before. I need my daddy to pick me up and hug me . I need to snuggle against him while smelling his soft warm jumper. I need to push my face into his to kiss him and for him to kiss me right back even with just stubbly chin The nuns at my school had said miracles exist. So I prayed while I sobbed for God to return my daddy back to me or to take me to him. I knew he wouldn’t leave me without a goodbye .I screamed into the pillow covering it with tears, mucus and spit . My jaw hurt so badly. I wept until my head felt like it would explode. I needed my daddy more than anything in the world. I knew he’d come back , he just wouldn’t leave me .. he would send me a message I wasn’t sure how. I hid under the blankets scared a monster would come . Under my pillow was an old tranny radio. Battered and old with a dial to try to find a station . My mother had told me if I listened to it at night the a policeman would come and shout at me and we would get into trouble. . So I’d hidden it well. Under the covers I’d try to tune it in . The reception was iffy , muffled voices and crackles over music , voices came and went I was hoping my dad might talk to me through the little old radio . His voice might just come if I listened intently . The pain in my heart battered and bruised me. I wondered if it was possible to die under my blankets and God lift me up through the world to my daddy. As I turned the nob on the battered paint stained radio suddenly this song came on and spoke to my pain . The words entered my mind and my broken heart. They soothed something in me as the ends of my fingers chewed broken nails throbbed to the music . The words in the song told me my daddy was always with me . He was still here he was my friend I just couldn’t see him. It’s impossible to convey how much this song comforted and spoke directly to me. Talking about my dad’s death was not an option at that time . I was left to find my own way to process the pain. James Taylor I thank you so very much for offering something to me to hold on to.
"You've Got a Friend" is a 1971 song written by American singer-songwriter Carole King. It was first recorded by King and included on her second studio album, Tapestry (1971). Another well-known version is by James Taylor from his album Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon. James Taylor and Carole King were married if I am not mistaken. Wonderful, wonderful song.
It's been almost twenty years since the last time I heard this song. I remember hearing this song early morning while on my way to pre-school on Lite FM. Now I'm in my early 20s, searching through early 70s songs to listen to as a temporary escape from these trying times. So relaxing
Ok circle of love story here. My ex husband's husband was my best friend. My husband and ex husband have the same birthday. We have all celebrated together every year for the last 35 years in a most beautiful loving friendship. Last night we all went out to dinner together for the guys mutual birthday. After returning home my ex's husband died. I dedicate this heartfelt song to the memory of their love for each other and to us. God speed Steve. You gave us everything you had with all your artistic creative love.

It’s absurd how good one man and a guitar can sound. I could practice for 1000 years and never sound this good. What a blessing to at least be able to feel this music.
This song was played at a wonderful friend”s wedding about twenty years ago. She passed away five years ago. When I hear this song , I think of her and wish she was still with us and of how much she was loved and is sorely missed ❤
Saw James in concert many years ago, truly loved his music then. Means so much more now, guess I've grown a little. A man who has had his own struggles with such a great ❤. This or Up On The Roof, my all time favoites!! They always get better!!!!!
I'm a Christian, years ago when I was going through a dark period in my life I happened to be walking through a store and this song was playing, to me it was Jesus reaching out to me through this song telling me everything was going to be ok
It won’t be the last dark moment…. Jesus did say ‘whenever two or three gather in my name…’ This must refer to that surely…. I’m not a believer but it makes sense…
Aaaa... I had the same feeling about a few days ago- just heard that song and felt something very deep in my heart-like a blessing... searched te lyrics... Yes! He is Jesus, calling me...
I had this feeling in my teenager time when suffered from depression. I perfectly understand the verses "When people can be so cold. They'll hurt you, and desert you" mainly if it comes from those ones you imagined were your friends. Sometimes all we need is just one loyal person to hear and hug you. I thanks God as I have today some ones with this profile around!
This song still touches me. Afters so many years...still love the simplicity of an acoustic guitar and words of simplicity that leave one in a happier place. Thanks
This was one my Uncles favorite songs.... oh the memories, some times when you are a kid you don't realize the precious moments and the people around you.
You absolutely do not. But it is so good to when you look back at those fond memories...bitter sweet for sure...this is such a beautiful song reminds me when I was growing up as well as my mom had us listening to this type of music...
This song is my best friend. CAROL an I dedicate to us as our song. Now were getting old one foot in grave or two . This made me cry Carol thank you for sending /share this song. We're friends till the end an we known each other for 60 yrs. Hope you get well so bad.
In these days of fear and sadness, I think it's a necessary song to remember. In my opinion maybe coud become an hymn these days all around the world..Best regards from Barcelona (Spain)
This was played at a good friend's funeral this week .She was such a wonderful friend and I can't believe I won't see her again .I will miss her so much 😢
My father just passed away, his memorial is Saturday, he played this song when his parents passed. I asked for this to be put in his ceremony after i speak, because i know it's what he would have wanted.....
Sang this for my 6th grade graduation 97 . This song bring back so many memories for me . It still makes me cry now that I'm a mother of almost 40. It takes me back to that day holding on to my best friends hands so tight looking out in the crowd and seeing my mother wiping her tears she was so proud of me . So many friends have moved on or gone to the other side now but this song brings me to that day when our lives was just starting out and we thought we would be together forever.

Could this song be anymore beautiful? I was twelve, with dreams of being an NHL Goalie. One dream died w/a carreer ending concussion. But I still have a friend!!! MK 🇺🇸
Amen 🙏🙌 bless your heart 😮 my mom used to Tell me that she worries so about me cause I was always alone and I told her mom as long as I have Jesus lm NEVER ALONE !! PRAISE GOD
Every time I hear this song I feel the joy deep in my heart reminiscing those sad memories we’ve gone through, me and my mother and sister! Grateful of those experience that made me who I am as a person and as a soul! Really, Really grateful! Thank you Father the source of all energy for sending my divine helpers who never left me, not a single second!
Summer '71: Just turned 12. LOVED this version on first listen! ♥ Fast forward five years. My BFF then and now (we talked earlier today!) borrowed my sheet music for this song. He auditioned for a specialty choir and got in!!!
This song ..shows just how important it is to have a friend or a lover you feel strongly about. Someone who transcends the gift you have been given by meeting and knowing them and their love!
When I heard that Mum didn't have long left to live, I rushed to up to see her. It was a beautiful 3 days together before she passed away. This song reminds me of that time.
Heard this song when it first came out. I was 17 and in my last year of High School and was left my mom to fend for myself and finish my last year alone. Don't know how I would have made it without my best friend. Can't hear this song without thinking of her. One of my biggest regrets is not staying in touch with her. Think I'll call today😢
I hope you are able to get in touch with your friend again. I know the comment of a random internet stranger doesn't mean much but I also try to live by the philosophy that you don't know who would benefit from a kind word... So I wish you well and I hope you are able to reconnect with your friend.🙂
every time i listened to this song i cant help but to cry. This song is my fathers favorite song he used to sing this during our karaoke time. this song is will always be a special to me and also my favorite i always listen to this every single day. also when i miss him, it feels like he is the song who singing this for me and, I always heard his voice. I miss you so much papa. i will always love you!
that‘s a wonderful memory. i‘m sure he misses your karaoke times together as well and is always smiling when he sees you singing this song from above. you got this
When you're down and troubled And you need a helping hand And nothing, nothing is going right Close your eyes and think of me And soon I will be there To brighten up even your darkest night You just call out my name And you know wherever I am I'll come running, oh yeah baby, to see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you've got to do is call And I'll be there, ye, ye, ye You've got a friend If the sky above you Should turn dark and full of clouds And that old north wind should begin to blow Keep you head together And call my name out loud now Soon you'll hear me knocking at you door You just call out my name And you know wherever I am I'll come running, oh yes I will, to see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall, ye All you have to do is call And I'll be there, ye, ye, yeah Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend When people can be so cold They'll hurt you, and desert you And take your soul if you let them, oh yeah, don't you let 'em now You just call out my name And you know wherever I am I'll come running to see you again, oh baby, don't you know Winter, spring, summer or fall Hey now, all you have to do is call And I'll be there, yes I will You've got a friend You've got a friend, yeah Ain't it good to know you've got a friend Ain't it good to know you've got a friend Oh, ye yeah, you've got a friend

During the summer of 1971, a time period between 10th and 11th grade, this song was like a friend. A friend who was always there when you needed them. A friend who listened to you but wouldn’t put you down. Now just a distant memory but only a touch of a fingertip away…

That was truly a miracle! I pray you experience more of the astounding love that God has for you. He is your eternal Father. ❤️❤️❤️
That is such a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing. God Bless You
You should also thank Carole King as she was the one who wrote and sang this song. Then she also would team up with James Taylor to do the duet.
"You've Got a Friend" is a 1971 song written by American singer-songwriter Carole King. It was first recorded by King and included on her second studio album, Tapestry (1971). Another well-known version is by James Taylor from his album Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon. James Taylor and Carole King were married if I am not mistaken. Wonderful, wonderful song.

Very nice song by Carol King but l like to by James Taylor singner from Canada like me.
Very beautifull and truly lyric
Bravo !
A friend in need is a friend indeed forever but only few can be trusted!

I'm now 67 and this was the first single I ever bought at 15 I learned it by heart and it still brings a tear when I hear it
Beautiful song! Loved it when it came out, I was 14 at the time, and still love it today. It’s timeless!
Amazing classic.

This song still touches me. Afters so many years...still love the simplicity of an acoustic guitar and words of simplicity that leave one in a happier place. Thanks
Beautiful favourite carried through the decades.
We were so privileged music wise in the 60s/70s
Indeed
Indeed I was a little boy and it's the best music of my life
@@jeffreygorsline472 I still have all my vinyl from then to
Strongly agree!
Agreed. But as a musician, I would also throw in the 80's and the 90's.
Had this stuck in my head earlier today, humming it in the hallway, folks didn't seem to mind much.
"they will hurt you and desert you...take your soul if you let them but oh don't you let them..." life lessons were in these songs for sure...
My favorite singer from early 1970's and this is my favorite song by him.
In a world without Jose Feliciano, this version of the song probably wouldn't exist. Thanks and blessings to Jose, Carole King, and JT.
This was one my Uncles favorite songs.... oh the memories, some times when you are a kid you don't realize the precious moments and the people around you.
You absolutely do not. But it is so good to when you look back at those fond memories...bitter sweet for sure...this is such a beautiful song reminds me when I was growing up as well as my mom had us listening to this type of music...

It definitely hugs the heart.

Just pure class from James I'm belting this classic out my car driving along princess Street in Edinburgh Scotland
Sang this for my 6th grade graduation 97 . This song bring back so many memories for me . It still makes me cry now that I'm a mother of almost 40. It takes me back to that day holding on to my best friends hands so tight looking out in the crowd and seeing my mother wiping her tears she was so proud of me . So many friends have moved on or gone to the other side now but this song brings me to that day when our lives was just starting out and we thought we would be together forever.
Mother of 40!😮
I am this type of a friend and proud of it
Class song for the1977 Bobcats of Nixon High School. Love you guys. Remember me when I’m gone!
It was a pleasure meeting James in Edinburgh in Scotland and having a dram of whisky with him a gent 😊
Thank you for a beautiful song.
I good friend brought me here and I will always be thankful 🖤
❤️
Beautiful voice, it goes deeply to the spirit and the soul. This voice singing to God will take us to the heaven
Whenever you’re down just listen to this song and just call a friend, works for me! 😉👍🏼❤️❤️❤️
This song makes my heart ❤️ smile. 😃
Yes!
Love to hear him sing
When needed, this song always manages to melt my cold, cynical heart.

Grateful of those experience that made me who I am as a person and as a soul! Really, Really grateful! Thank you Father the source of all energy for sending my divine helpers who never left me, not a single second!
Summer '71: Just turned 12. LOVED this version on first listen! ♥ Fast forward five years. My BFF then and now (we talked earlier today!) borrowed my sheet music for this song. He auditioned for a specialty choir and got in!!!
May He Rest In Peace Mr. Mike Enriquez he is a favorite song.

This song ..shows just how important it is to have a friend or a lover you feel strongly about. Someone who transcends the gift you have been given by meeting and knowing them and their love!

Brought me here rest in peace 🕊️
I hope you get this song if not please listen to this old wonderful song❤
When I heard that Mum didn't have long left to live, I rushed to up to see her. It was a beautiful 3 days together before she passed away. This song reminds me of that time.
This song has helped me sometimes.
Masterpiece 🌟 🤗
Heard this song when it first came out. I was 17 and in my last year of High School and was left my mom to fend for myself and finish my last year alone. Don't know how I would have made it without my best friend. Can't hear this song without thinking of her. One of my biggest regrets is not staying in touch with her. Think I'll call today😢
I hope you are able to get in touch with your friend again. I know the comment of a random internet stranger doesn't mean much but I also try to live by the philosophy that you don't know who would benefit from a kind word... So I wish you well and I hope you are able to reconnect with your friend.🙂
every time i listened to this song i cant help but to cry. This song is my fathers favorite song he used to sing this during our karaoke time. this song is will always be a special to me and also my favorite i always listen to this every single day. also when i miss him, it feels like he is the song who singing this for me and, I always heard his voice.

Pure class
When you're down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby, to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you've got to do is call
And I'll be there, ye, ye, ye
You've got a friend
If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep you head together
And call my name out loud now
Soon you'll hear me knocking at you door
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, oh yes I will, to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall, ye
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, ye, ye, yeah
Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them, oh yeah, don't you let 'em now
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again, oh baby, don't you know
Winter, spring, summer or fall
Hey now, all you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend
You've got a friend, yeah
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend
Oh, ye yeah, you've got a friend
King Dave thanks
Upon your door
Yes 👍🏼😇🤩

Beautiful song from the talented James Taylor !
Carole King wrote it and she sings her version on the Tapestry album. This is the best version though.
Always magnific
This Song will touch your heart ❤️,& Soul,just Listen,& let it..!🙏😥
Incrível essa música, quanto mais o tempo passa parece que ela fica melhor!
Me faz lembrar da minha infância nós anos 70,, bela lembrança,, voz fantástica
God gives gifts to men and certainly He gave James his share and what a blessing some of the songs are like this one.
During the summer of 1971, a time period between 10th and 11th grade, this song was like a friend. A friend who was always there when you needed them. A friend who listened to you but wouldn’t put you down. Now just a distant memory but only a touch of a fingertip away…
Linda música 🎸❤ Boa noite ❤
I remember my high school years,my classmate used to play this song during our lunchtime
