James Taylor
I've written a number of songs over the years and it's a big part of my life, this sort of tension between a longing for home and the call for the open road. It's sort of like a tug between two families. I even love to miss my home.
James Taylor
I think it surprises a lot of people that I'm still around, you know, still - that I'm not pushing up daisies, as they say.
James Taylor
