One of my absolute favorites. Sweet Baby James just always delivers. The only songs I don’t like are the ones I haven’t heard yet. So quietly patriotic and meaningful.

This is the most underrated James Taylor song. I play it every year multiple times on the 4th. It’s difficult to listening to it without tears.

This song absolutely kills me. It is one of the best songs I have ever heard. I don't know who sang the backgrounds on the recording, or who engineered it, but they deserve an award.

The chorus goes like Samba de Uma Nota Só (One Note Samba), lingering over the same note. Beautiful.
