Best James Taylor Songs

The Top Ten
1 Fire and Rain

Sweet dreams and flying machines IN PIECES ON THE GROUND. Haha!

Great lyricist, great musician, great voice

"But I always thought that I'd see you again."

2 Sweet Baby James

"There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway,
A song that they sing when they take to the sea
A song that they sing of their home in the sky
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep
But singing works just fine for me..."
What a Phenomenal album - his best

3 Carolina in My Mind

This is the simplest most beautiful song he has sung in my opinion. My apologies to Sweet Baby James and Fire and Rain. Those are certainly deserving of #1 as well.

4 You've Got a Friend
5 Something in the Way She Moves
6 Shower the People

Just a great song,

7 Your Smiling Face
8 Secret O'Life
9 Country Road
10 Handy Man
The Contenders
11 Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight
12 Mexico

This will always be my favorite.

13 You Can Close Your Eyes
14 How Sweet It is (To Be Loved by You)

Super catchy song, and sweet sax solo!

15 Walking Man
16 Steamroller Blues
17 Suite for 20 G
18 Caroline I See You
19 Up On the Roof
20 Copperline

If this came out in the 70s, it would have been one of his biggest hits.

Fantastic song. Terribly underrated.

22 Her Town Too
23 Blossom
24 Long Ago and Far Away
25 Song for You Far Away
