I’m 71. I fell in love with great voices that wrote their songs. Joni. Jackson. Neil. Cat. Judy. David. Stephen. Bobby❤️

how does a 16 year old aquire the head of a 70 year old? Blows my mind. Just amazing.

At 56 .. I’m still trying to figure things out and leave as few regrets behind in my life as possible. This song .. keeps me motivated to do just that.

Jackson Browne is the greatest artist ever, Jackson Browne is the most underrated artist ever.

i was about 50 yards from the stage when this was shot. i don't think i'll ever forget this, as long as i live.

“Don’t confront me with my failures I have not forgotten them”. ..16 years of age..Holy shit

He is an old soul. We are blessed to know his voice.

“I wrote this song when I was 16”. That line, & fact, has to have caused thousands of would-be songwriters to just go “well fuck me, I’m quitting this crap”. What a generational talent Jackson is, really no one like him.

It seems almost every time I hear some half-familiar song that fills me with nostalgia, it turns out it's a Jackson Browne song. He has a special gift for capturing the bitter-sweetness of life; to create this melody and mood at the age of 16 is really quite incredible.

This man's talent isn't obfuscated in any way. He's just genuinely good, and doesn't have to hide behind any goofy gimmicks or quirks to show it. I tried so hard for years not to like Jackson Browne, and I just couldn't make myself like him. He's just downright outstanding. I feel like my parents. Bummer.

don't confront me with my failures, i have not forgotten them.............. best lyric ever............ painting that on my urn for my ashes.

A 16 year old with a very old soul for sure.

no showoff .just plain and simple music ..legend .thanks for the music .

Amazing song writing and the sweetest voice on the planet.

Old soul. It's a real thing. Once you realize, it all makes total sense.

I really was not ready for Jackson to get old.................

Absolute genius. I can't imagine writing this song after living a lifetime, much less at 16. Some people get all the talent.

Been in love with JB since I was a teenager. It is his words...

I just paid $500 for two tickets front row in Columbus,OH 06/28/2013.Don't regret it a damn bit,felt lucky to get them.Saw him in Charleston,WV a couple years back,he had 17 guitars on stage and played every damned one of them.A magic evening!

As a teen I loved Tom Rush’s version of this. It wasn’t until I bought “ For Everyman” in my twenties that I realized my new favorite artist was the author. To then learn that he wrote it at age 16 simply blew my mind. Of course Jackson does it so much better than Tom could ever approach. “These day I sit on cornerstones and count the time in quarter tones”...Awesome.
