Gorgeous gorgeous. Carole is a genius song writer and piano.player. Love James's voice completely. Together they are magic. Wish I could have seen them perform.

She has been inducted twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a performer and songwriter.

I love them together. Just such a magical bond between them! They sound like they are suppose to be together. And I love them separately as well. 💜💜love you both!!!💜💜
This song brings back great memories! My dearest friend lived in Philly on 3rd and Bainbridge back in 2017-2020 and we would go up to the roof. We would bring some food, beers or wine, cushions, a blanket,and the Oontz Bluetooth speaker. A great view of the city skyline and sky. Such wonderful memories!!!! I'll cherish them always. ❤
i saw james taylor, i want to say around 1971, at the greensboro nc coliseum. one of the best concerts i ever went to. never have had the privilege to see carole. both are 2 of my favorites of all time!
I arrived in US 1974 n my fist concert was Carol King opening for CSNY in Santa Barbara in 1975 wow she is still great after all these years love her ♥️
Who remembers James Taylor performing this on Sesame Street? It was terrific and the reason Sesame Street was so successful in the early years. The parents enjoyed watching as much as the kids and that was the whole point!
Russ, Le ( + Excalibur ") and Kootch provide a superb backing for surely one of the best live concerts ever. Simply trust the audience appreciated the truly stellar quality of that which they were privileged to both witness and be a part of.
What more can anyone say? Two of the best voices singing a song of what we all should try sometime. Makes you forget about your hectic life if only for a little.
Saw these two and the Immediate Family all together ❤️ in the round at Key Arena (now called Climate Pledge Arena) in Seattle in 2007. Great night great show and timeless memories.😊❤❤
I had someone in my life 40+ years ago, I will always have a place in my 💓 heart named Chris in Portland, OR! He helped me find the woman in me, after a bad marriage! ! I wish we had a child together, J&E! Ha!
Such a sweet, sunny, moving message that shines thru her lyrics and his voice. Can hardly believe King wrote so many great hits long before she herself was a renowned recording artist as well in the early 1970's. She seemed so young and "new" when Tapestry was released yet she had been writing some of the greatest hits for bands over a decade earlier.
We are blessed to have these two making music in our lifetime.
IN addition to hearing one of the greatest pop songs ever written and the brilliant musicianship, the pure love on that stage is something glorious.
Song of my life, thank you Carole and James ♥️
I have always thought that this was a perfect idea for a song, so original, so simple.
I cry with joy every time I hear this.
me too!
Gorgeous gorgeous. Carole is a genius song writer and piano.player. Love James's voice completely. Together they are magic. Wish I could have seen them perform.
The original song is good , I love these two together. Love this version.❤
Watched this video and bought the dvd. Enough said !
Carole, James and Leeland... Musical Royalty!
James' voice on this is just superb. The harmonies are the best. Paradise for me just listening. Thank you for the music!!
I could listen to James and Carole all day!
It's difficult to even comment on how spectacular they are.
Carole & James - special personified. I have seen them live, nearly just melted with the overwhelming passion that they share.
Just catching this now...great performance. Lets not forget Leland Skylar on bass, It makes the whole team complete.
Two of the most amazing Legends on the same stage - what a show that was! No one has topped that in my concert wheelhouse and never will.
actually 5 amazing legends Danny Korthchmar, Russ Kunkel and Leland Skylar...are legends themselves Google them !
Ted Bishop__ Ditto!
@ Ted
You beat me to it !! 🇬🇧 👍 !
The magic of James Taylor and Carol King nothing better in life. I've had the privilege to see them in the round.

Dated - like me, on the other hand! - but always enjoyable!
She is the queen!
Back when Music, was Great !!!!
God I Love Carol King
You had to do it, eh. Couldn’t get through 1 music video without making the embarrassing old-person remark
So love this..doesn’t matter how old you are...you’re still the same inside all your life
You are so right. But you don't get it till you get old !
I love them together. Just such a magical bond between them! They sound like they are suppose to be together. And I love them separately as well.
💜💜love you both!!!💜💜
Eles formavam um casal tão lindos. Na época. ❤❤❤
Jeez, this is the most moving thing I've ever seen.
James Taylor's voice💖
Who doesn't feel better after listening to "You've got a Friend?"
Think it is the same for men and women, James Tayor's voice is so beautiful!

From the first day I heard this song (I was 18 in 1978) to this day, I love it.
I could listen to James Taylor sing the phone book and still be happy. There will never be another like him. Simply epic.
As Carole sang you just drift away to this beautiful song!!!!!
This version makes me so happy.
Theres a whole lotta love invested here
The best band ever to back James and Carole. The originals.... Danny Korthchmar, Russ Kunkel and Leland Sklar...
@MusicMadMaurice Kortchmar introduced Taylor to King when Taylor was looking for a pianist. Have loved their albums for since the early 70s.
Leland Skylar is a legend
Watch out Kootch...🤫
