What an inspirational legend . Born in poverty in the roughest of neighbourhood, no schooling , no music lessons , no connections to anyone in music industry . Just followed His passion to LA with a burning determination and a god given voice . Thank you Barry white for showing us life is what you make of it .
When you're down and troubled And you need some lovin' care And nothin', nothin' is goin' 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 runnin' To see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call And I'll be there You've got a friend If the sky above you Grows dark and full of clouds And that old north wind begins to blow Keep your head together And call my name out loud Soon you'll hear me knockin' at your door You just call out my name And you know, wherever I am I'll come runnin', runnin', yeah, yeah To see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call And I'll be there, yes, I will Now, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend When people can be so cold? They'll hurt you, yes, and desert you And take your soul if you let them Oh, but don't you let them You just call out my name And you know, wherever I am I'll come runnin', runnin', yeah, yeah To see you again Winter, spring, summer or fall 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 Ain't it good to know you've got a friend Ain't it good to know, ain't it good to know Ain't it good to know You've got a friend Oh, yeah, now, you've got a friend Yeah baby, you've got a friend Oh, yeah, you've got a friend
That is soooo good. Right when she starts the bridge the look on her face she just knows she's Killin' It. One of the greatest singer/songwriters doing one of her best songs. Would have been cool to be there. Stand up bass is the perfect touch.
Muito excelente vc Carole!!! Nossa❤❤❤ Tão linda sua voz, vc, e sua energia é explendosa Não conhecia ela 😢😢😢 Melhor de todos os tempos Já ouvi mil vezes essa canção Estou apaixonado por sua arte ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
ESTA CANCIÓN ES UN HIMNO ENTRE UNA AMIGA Y YO!! ... ANTES DE IRSE A PERÚ SE LA DEDIQUÉ, CADA VEZ QUE LA ESCUCHO ME PONGO A LLORAR POR QUÉ LA EXTRAÑO MUCHO 😢... PARA MÍ ES UN HIMNO A LA VERDADERA AMISTAD!!
it would be nice to see Neil sedaka get inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame twice like she has . from michael from Yorkshire and proud of it .
How sad you’re not even capable of allowing king her dues without bringing up your forever Sedaka bs. Please stop it’s really disturbing. This comment doesn’t belong on this song,get a life man,nobody cares.
@@puldspulds5798 dear puldspulds . I'm not speaking nonsence . he's a great artist who is greatly underated and should be getting all the love honours and respect that she has . and there are plenty of people who care about the shabby treatment that he has been given by the showbusiness world . I'm free to say this on this website . and as I'm a huge fan of Carole I don't begrudge her her dues . From Michael from Yorkshire and proud of it .
@@michaelspilman5220in your opinion he’s a great artist which is fine. My observation and objection as well as many is your constant tagging on kings videos . The night she had her second rock and roll honor you must have made well over twenty or more comments and people where calling you out. We don’t understand why you persist on tagging her . Tag his videos all you want but please stop tagging hers especially with the nasty comments Sedaka has said about king it’s so inappropriate what you’re doing.
Simple , direct and straight to the point. Eloquent lyrics delivered with passion by a great and unvarnished voice and a lovely piece of music. Doesn't get any better than this.😊❤
This is absolutely amazing..brilliant. this is from the Oakland concert. Another video natural woman from that same concert has been on the tube for a few years. I actually just wrote to her daughter about the Oakland concert...Carnegie hall concert..the mcgovern four concert and the central park concert...urging her to do something to release these in some type of package for her fans. If you have time send sherry goffin a similar request!!
@@jamespeyton7312 I went through the web site of king. Since sherry has been her manager I'm hoping if we flooded the web site it might encourage something to happen. I've heard or read so much about the mcgovern concert you would think Streisand. Taylor and king would be an amazing video.
@@andrewnewman8677 Andrew on the tube you can listen to two concerts (boston & Seattle) live no video. I've over the years will play them on a Saturday or Sunday. They are both exceptional. Her piano phenomenal...the tightness with band members fantastic...she calls waddy her identical sister.lmao. so her banter with the audience alot of fun...too many highlights from both concerts...but she slays "music " "alabaster lady" etc...the Boston concert is a make up concert a little over 2 hours.
Actually it’s superior to Taylor’s version….yes Taylor has a good cover but king delivers an absolutely authentic song that is directly from the source,the soul,heart,hook,melody,all king and no one can duplicate that.
@@puldspulds5798I know King is a very talented singing performer and I really like Carole King and James Taylor as much as each other but I just prefer Taylor's version of the song You Got A Friend that's all.
@@alexandertebbiche6061 it’s fine if you prefer Taylor’s version. In your opinion. Your original post was “it’s not as good” that’s what i took exception to. In my opinion Taylor does a nice job but it can never compare to the authentic version of king,,,you hear so much more in her vocals, She is the very essence of this masterpiece not Taylor.
@@puldspulds5798exactly that can be an opinion or preference, it to say it’s better than the version sung by the actual writer is always a goofy statement. I like Jimmy Hendrix’s all along the watchtower much more than Dylan’s but is it better? No that’s ridiculous.
Someone has access to this footage at oakland. Natural woman. Ygaf.some of James tunes.and have sporadically putting the video on RU-vid.......who are you?????????
