"YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND" CAROLE KING (1971)

Listening to Tapestry, I can’t help but marvel at the depth of this classic album from top to bottom. Without exaggeration, it is like the great American songbook, with every song carrying its own weight and contributing to musical history. One of my favorites has always been the sincere, heart-filled “You’ve Got a Friend”. Simple. Raw. Honest. Beautiful. All of these qualities make her original superior to the popularized JT cover.

“If the sky above you grows dark and full of clouds and that old north wind begins to blow, keep your head together and call my name out loud. Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door.”
