I had the best seats I could buy to see James in Baton Rouge so that my wife could see him which was something she always wanted more than anything. She was recovering from major brain surgery and was doing well. The very day he was scheduled to perform, she had a very sudden relapse and instead of going to the concert, we spent the night in the ER. Three months later she was dead from a previously undiagnosed glioblastoma tumor. Nothing he will ever sing will do nothing but bring me to tears. “Going to Carolina” is the hardest since it was one I played late one evening as we drove to...Florida (!), on our first road trip together in my first new car. That song came up on her favorite cassette and i looked over at her in the passenger seat and she was sound asleep. That song and that moment will never leave me. She was so young and beautiful. We were married for 27 years and she was twelve years younger than me. She died four years ago and I still miss her so much.

I lived in Chapel Hill when this song was produced. James’ father, Ike, was the Dean of the UNC School of Medicine. A new Dean arrived when I attended in 1979. Ike remained to teach Social and Cultural Issues and commuted from Boston. I fondly remember one day when he said. “ It’s hard being the father of a famous son “ Years later I watched James in Concert with the Boston Pops. He introduced Ike in the audience. It brought back 15 years of fond memories in Chapel Hill.

His music transcends age,race, religion,physical,mental,emotional and spiritual barriers.Timeless and beautiful ❤

My mother introduced me to you 35 years ago so I'm doing my best to return the favor by introducing her to you in concert this coming 4th of July. Thank you for helping her deal with her pain when I was a very sick child and thanks again for helping me do the same with my very sick daughter now...

We played this at my Dad's funeral...he truly had a 'holy host of angels' surrounding him

[@craigdreier1709]

My older brother joined the Columbia club back in the 70's and James Taylor was one of the 8 tracks he ordered....along with Santana too... beautiful music from back in the day ...thank you!

You got to ask yourself how many thousands of times has this man performed this song and each time he still puts on a great show

[@martingardner9124]

It can be expected when going to see him live that he will play this. Twice when I've seen him he actually started with this song.

I'm Brazilian, I've never been to the US, I don't even speak English, but I've always liked James Taylor's music. My sister died this morning in a small town in North Carolina. JT wrote this song for my solace too. God bless you.

I'm so so sorry for your loss. From Virginia, a state just north of Carolina. The sky is so blue and vast there. It feels as though you can see forever. Peace be with you, Patricia

This is songwriting perfection

[@LucasStoten1]

I love the modest smile that he holds throughout the whole performance

3:48 -- the heavens opened up and a choir of angels joined one of the greatest musical talents of all time in singing praises to God's creation.

My favorite part of this version

[@truthseeker9624]

James Taylor's music was before my time but I have loved it since I was a child. There is something magical about his eyes. He is so handsome. I love you James Taylor!!!!!
