6.15 min. | 4.8 user rating		 Video for Special Friends (Best if watched full screen..some of the text is small) "You've Got a Friend" was included on Carole King's breakthrough album "Tapestry". The song was never a hit for her, although the album was a smash, going all the way to #1 in the US and #4 in the UK. To this day, many singer-songwriters cite "Tapestry" as an influence. This was a big hit for King's friend James Taylor in 1971, going to #1 in the US for him. Taylor played guitar on several of King's albums. Roberta Flack and Donnie Hathaway recorded the song as a duet and released it around the same time as Taylor. Their version hit #29 in the US and started a successful partnership between Flack and Hathaway, who teamed up for an album of duets in 1972 that included the hit "Where Is The Love?". Other artists to cover the song include Barbra Streisand, Michael Jackson, Anne Murray, Tom Jones and Al Green. "You've Got a Friend" won the Grammy for 1971 Song of the Year.

3.38 min. | 5.0 user rating		 Hey Fans, Supporters, Friends, and Fam. Just felt like singing a simple song of appreciation. I really appreciate the supporters and fans but I can't thank my friends and family enough for sticking with me throughout everything. I know it's not easy being a friend to someone that sometimes is not always there for you all the time. Times get real busy and it's hard to find balance doing this as a career, but I will never forget that I have people in my life that love me regardless of what's going on. Thanks and I Love you all! :) -Jeremy ps- James Taylor is the man! He's one of my favorite artists and is definitely a classic hit maker :D But it was brought to my attention that this song is originally by Carole King and Mr. James Taylor just covered it! :D
