I was at my lowest and was contemplating taking my life when I heard this song over the radio. I broke down and pulled over to the side of the road where I cried. Although it was my mother's voice that I heard singing over the radio, I also knew that it was James Taylor singing. It was then I realized, everything will be all right.

Please take cate of yourself. You will hurt so many people that love you. Sometimes it feels like no one loves you , and you have no where to turn. I have been in your place 2011. I made a promise to my daughter, I've been tempted but I never yield. I pray 🙏. There is so much good in you. Know that . Know that whatever you are going through..ir will pass. The sun will shine again. I have lost my entire family through murder or just sudden death. I lost my job of 14 years to a temporary worker who call me racist names. I reported. I have have been diagnosed with RA, Osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia,5th disc denigrating. I hurt most everyday. But I HAVE PUT MY TRUST IN GOD. And when I feel like I can't go on , He tells me in my heart . I AM LOVED. AND SO ARE YOU. 💖💝❤

And Scs lower register lines up great with JTs. 🤷‍♂️

Just being present in a room or auditorium to hear James Taylor sing is an absolute honor. I was lucky enough to see him recently perform at Caesars Palace, and it will be hands down one of the best memories of my life. He is a truly beautiful soul. His energy fills a room and warms everyone in it, which is truly an experience you can't explain to anyone who hasn't lived it. If you have a chance to see him live, do it, even if you are in the last row. He's one of the greatest of all time.

This is my favorite JT song. When JT sang the song with Carly Simon it was sublime, but as we know how that story ends, hearing it now is bittersweet. But this was just fine. The combination of JT's generous, sparkling, ageless spirit, SC's grateful and humble spirit, and the pure joy they radiate, all subtly wrapped in the incomparable accompaniment of John Baptist and the lovely background singers.

James wrote this song for Joni Mitchell. "Taylor wrote this soothing, grown-up lullaby for his then-girlfriend Joni Mitchell while they were in New Mexico for Taylor's acting debut in the 1971 film Two-Lane Blacktop. Taylor did not enjoy the experience of making the drag-racing drama, but the now-sober singer did have a lot of fun doing mescaline and cruising the Southwest landscape in a camper with Mitchell and co-star Warren Oates. One evening after filming wrapped up, Taylor went back to his Albuquerque hotel room and wrote the song, but he doesn't quite know where it came from." Source Songfacts

I went to see James Taylor a couple of months ago. There were 2 sets separated by an intermission, during which he'd sit on the edge of the stage and sign autographs and pose for pictures and whatnot. While he was giving me an autograph, I told him (as a joke) that I loved that song Carly Simon allegedly wrote about him. He asked which one, and I said "You're So Vain." He said it wasn't about him, because he hadn't even met Carly Simon when she wrote the song. Instead, according to him, it was about Warren Beatty. I told him I hadn't heard that theory, and he responded, "It's not a theory." And now I regret even thinking it would be a good idea to tell him that.
