That song is absolutely the most beautiful song there is. Timeless masterpiece to me ❤️

We heard this in junior high school. We all liked James Taylor then and 40 years later still do. Mr. Taylor, you are priceless ❤

This song came out in 1977. My high school sweetheart and I were engaged to get married. We never had any problems until then. We started having problems and he started getting doubts about marriage. I was heartbroken because we had wanted to be married since HS. This was the perfect song for me. My heart was broken. He got over his doubts and we’ve been happily married 40 something years.

This is one of my favorite songs. The other one is "I'm easy like Sunday morning by Lionel Richie. When I say "easy" I mean mellow. I was raised in the 70s and I was surrounded by mellow, peaceful music. My father moved next door so even if my parents were separated I was able to see my Dad every day. I was happy. My brothers from my Dad's first marriage said I was the peace maker because I was my mother's and father's go-between. Later when Dad came to live with me my mom would bring me a meal for him to help me out. As my mom was walking up to my house, my Dad saw her walking up, he said "She's a good girl." When I was a teenager I asked my Dad why he hated my mom, he said, " I don't hate your mom, how could I have you beautiful children without her." That was very healing for me.

La voz de James Taylor es tan dulce y relajante... una canción tan escuchada y amada por décadas.

This reminds me of my boyfriend who passed away from liver cancer 6yrs ago. He was my handyman, he tried his best to fix our 😢stuff around the house, but what he did was fix my broken 💔, cause I met him years after my boyfriend of 3 years got murdered .I didn't think that I would ever love again but I did with my handyman.

I was 8 when this song was released. Still listening 46 years later. Just a timeless classic. What a voice

I'm still listening to this in 2024

My dad was an electrician and loved this song. He has since passed away from prostate cancer. Tonight, everyone at a poker game I was at, were signing along when this song came on. And I thought, these are the precious moments in life... There are so few really.

Never tired of listening to this song., it always gives me a feeling of peace within🥰

Had forgotten all about this song, hadn’t heard it in years, until I watched an episode of the 70s comedy What’s Happening and Dwayne was singing this song. All of a sudden it came rushing back and I even remembered it was a James Taylor song so here I am! I’ve always liked this one so no idea how I could forget it and leave it behind in my past. All I can say is that time is a nasty thief that eventually robs us of everything. 😞

เวอร์ชั่นปู่เจมส์ไพเราะที่สุดแล้ว ฟังแล้วเย็นสบายใจ เรียบง่าย กินใจ ไม่ว่าเวลาจะผ่านไปนานแค่ไหน เราก็จะกลับมาฟังเสมอๆ

I bought this album when it was first released. As usual..... Anything James does, it becomes gold! I love all of his music. The man is truly musically gifted! 😎👍🏻

James Taylor is my girlfriend's favorite artist. This her favorite song by him. Always brings her to tears for some reason. It is a great song no doubt.

Thank you Dad (2012) for raising me on great music❤💔

James Taylor é simplesmente maravilhoso.

I have loved James Taylor about 30 years now! He's got such a soothing voice. God Bless you James always!❤

I love James...He tells you how it is in a pretty soulful way.

I was trying to sing these songs before I could even talk. Love James Taylor 💙

This is the kind of pop/soft rock music I love.

Ah beautiful memories listening to sweet JT, such a simple and gentle man.🤍🌟🤍

loved JT since in my twenties, now 71 and still a huge fan, we are so lucky he is still recording and is as good as ever, remarkable.

ฟัง ค่ะ เพลงเก่า ความหมาย ดี ดนตรีเพราะ ฟังตั้งแต่เด็กๆ นี้ 56 ฟังอยู่ค่ะ นั่งรอ หมอ ตรวจ โรงพยาบาลชัยนาทนเรนทร

James Taylor voz diferenciada! Som de ótima Qualidade

Summer of '77. My favorite James Taylor Song. Love his guitar playing. Love the intro of the song, from start to finish.

ฟังมาตั้งแต่ชั้นประถมเจ็ด หนุ่มช่างซ่อม (หัวใจ) กินใจลึกซึ้ง "Hey girl I'm your handy man..... ผมทำด้วยหัวใจ และผมจริงจังนะ..."

THIS SONG NEVER GETS OLD. ONE OF mr TAYLOR'S BEST SONGS!

It's Febuary 9, 2024. I finally found it. I always confused this with Niel Young's heart of gold. Back in the mid 90's, this was played a lot during my childhood. Thanks for making this song.❤

James Taylor's music has a way of doing that❤

James Taylor is EVERYTHING!

1977: Rainy day in LA. I went to the store and the papers read, "Elvis dead at 42". Song playing at the store..."Handy Man"

Never heard a cover of an old classic that was so different than the original but yet so damn good.

Olha o arranjo da música, olha a voz do cantor tudo perfeito.❤❤

Amo James Taylor suas músicas são inesquecíveis, que saudades da sua presença nos Rock in Rio.

Escuché por primera vez este tema a mediados de 1978. Cada vez que vuelvo a oirlo es como si fuera esa primera vez. Espectacular esta versión de Taylor!!!!

Nowdays, I am almost 64 yrds old and with kids in College. I need some extra- fundos, so: I am a " handy Man ". Oh ,I also take a good care of my " mummy ". She is 91 yrs old with a good health. God bless we ALL!

I've always loved all of James Taylor's song. This is my most favorite 1 though, & that's because my father would always sing this 1 to both my Mom & I all of the time. He'd play his 8 track tape version of James Taylor's JT album, which I was lucky enough to find on cd years later. It was the 1st album from him that I ever listened to & that's why this has always been my most favorite o e of his too. 1st favorites are the most special I find because they've been your favorite the longest. Thank you, James, for this song that will forever remind me of my Dad the most. I call it,, my Dad & I"s song. A lifelong fan of yours always from Iroquois Falls, Ontario. :)

Hey girls, gather round Listen to what I'm putting down Hey baby, I'm your handy man I'm not the kind to use a pencil or rule I'm handy with love and I'm no fool I fix broken hearts, I know that I truly can If your broken heart should need repair Then I am the man to see I whisper sweet things You tell all your friends They'll come running to me Here is the main thing that I want to say I'm busy 24 hours a day I fix broken hearts I know that I truly can Come-a, come-a, come-a, come-a, come, come Come on Yeah, yeah, yeah Come-a, come-a, come-a, come-a, come, come Oh now, they'll come running to me Here is the main thing I want to say I'm busy 24 hours a day I fix broken hearts, baby I'm your handy man Come-a, come-a, come-a, come-a, come, come Come Yeah, yeah, yeah Come-a, come-a, come-a, come-a, come, come Come Yeah, yeah, yeah That's me (Come-a, come-a, come-a, come-a, come, come) I'm your handy man (Yeah, yeah, yeah) That's me (Come-a, come-a, come-a, come-a, come, come) I'm your handy man (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

This is when I fell in love with James so many years ago..glad I saw in concert with my Mom 💋

The guy is a rare DNA. I remember i was just a kid in the early 70's. He presented his live performance song with a reel tape recoder (Akai brand i think), and he sang with his own playback creating harmonies & AD libs. It was so impressive and that served as one of my foundation in doing harmonies from thereon. Very cool dude! His collaboration with JD Souther was a classic: Her Town.

Nem falo o quanto eu fico nostálgica com essa música..❤️❤️❤️

There is such a genuine sweetness about JT.His songs take me back to sun filled youth.

When I was like 6 or 7 I used to listen to my dads records. He had this 45. I loved it and played it over and over. Now 45 years later I still love it. Think of my dad and growing up in Ayer, Massachusetts.

James Taylor you are still the voice👍my children love this song👍

Esta canção pra mim,é a mais bela dos últimos 50 anos, linda.

『京都人の密かな愉しみ Blue 燃える秋』から来た人 この指と～まれっ！！

Nossa não tem noção o quanto eu admiro esse música o quanto eu amo essa voz suave de veludo o meu coração chora de saldade quando eu escuto

Awsom , Just pure heaven, I love you so much,,, James

I’ve loved this song since I was a young girl! Idk why? But I’m still listening to it today I’m 53 it’s 2020. James has a great relaxing voice still

Thank You Mr.Taylor for being a handyman in fighting the 2020 virus your donation is definitely appreciate let's hope it reach the right people.

Uma honra escutar essa melodia.😎🇧🇷

James Taylor, la colonna sonora della mia vita.❤

Good morning everyone and have a great day! Thank you, Mr. Lynch.

Aí que Saudades, quando conhecir meu esposo estava tocando essa canção.

This is really amazing! One of my favorite from James Taylor..

As a person born in 1949 I had the pleasure of enjoying two very different versions of this song growing up. The first was by Jimmy Jones when I was in the 6th grade. It was a kind of hyperactive fun version. Then in my late 20's came this beautiful rendition by James Taylor. It took a genius to see the lovely potential in this song.

Cresci ouvindo essa musica, e hoje descubro que ela é do ano que nasci.... Voz gostosa, melodia suave... Meu Deus, nem se compara com esses lixos que fazem sucesso atualmente.

ชอบฟังเพลงแนวนี้มากกกกก พ่อชอบเปิดให้หนูฟังทุกเช้า

Thanks, mom, for introducing me to great artists like James Taylor, Billy Joel, Elton John, and many others from this time.

He is just himself, that’s why it’s good.

This one came out the same year I was in college. Brings back so many memories! Many of my female friends at the college called me their "Handyman" because I was willing to listen when they needed a non-biased ear. Miss you all!

I first heard this cover after watching "Smooth Talk" for the first time recently. It's a tender song that attains a truly haunting quality in the context of that terrific film.

I was in a busy record store when this came over the loudspeaker and all motion stopped. People just stood there and listened.

Tem coisas inesquecíveis que acontecem apenas uma única vez, tipo está música é seu cantor... Aplausos!!!!!

Heard this on the radio throughout my childhood. Great song.

The texture of his voice is so fulfilling. Without James Taylor, the world would be still awaiting the arrival of thee "James Taylor"!

OOOHH,❤❤❤, HERE COMES MY FAVOURITE SONG WHEN I WAS 13 BUT NOW AM 56😂😂😂❤❤❤😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

This song popped in my head last week while I was cleaning my room for some unknown reason . I haven't heard this song in at least 40 years, so I wrote it down on a piece of paper and taped it to the wall so I wouldn't forget it . Handy man is such a beautiful song and it's been so long since I heard it , and listening to it I still remembered the words and his voice is so soothing . We'll all in all I'm just saying I still love the song .

One of the best remakes I’ve ever heard. James slows it down so much. Result: masterpiece.

David Lynch did not send me here. I just found a bunch of old tapes, and my dad recorded this song off the radio in Orange County when he used to travel. I haven't heard this song since I was a pup. Great song!

wintersummer springorfall... DJ DocH loves the music of Mr. Taylor you`ve got a friend!

Adorava essa música! Quando era criança falava que eu iria tocar violão para poder cantar! Saudades dessa música!

Não canso de escutar essa música maravilhosa, viajo no tempo, maravilhosa ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Glad I grew up listening to tatay's playlist of these classic songs.

Yes, I still like to hear that❤

Não tem como não se encantar com estes acordes ,esta batida, esta canção!...Boas saudades, ou aínda a viver 🎸🎶💜

I love this song so much, I was in USA when it first came out. I stayed home taking care of my very young child, so I had all of the time to listen.

Nostalgia...such a beautiful yet bittersweet emotion.

As 3 horas da manhã, ouvindo essa música linda e meus pensamentos lá fora . Buscando uma pessoa que esta muito longe de mim ❤

I went to a JT concert last weekend, and he played this song. A wonderful memory.

Just love JT, the pure soft voice

QUE SAUDADE, ESSA ERA A MINHA JUVENTUDE, SAUDÁVEL!!

I love his sweet voice, I get the feeling that he sings to me.

I got this weird feeling he's not coming over to update my electrical outlets or install a new kitchen faucet.

I had a video tape of a concert of his music from PBS. I would put that tape on every night after I would get off of work. Good stuff.

Simply the best!!!! I ❤️ James Taylor!!!!!

That feeling when a song you never heard before hits home like it's been living with you.

My absolutely favorite song, can never get tired of it

งานนะผมรักแต่คนนี้ซีทำไห้ตอ้งราออก.. ทีทำงานเงินนอยผมรับได้นะแต่คนนี้ซีทำไห้คิดมาก.. ไม่ไวๆๆ.. เพลงนี้ทำไห้สบายใจ🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

My childhood vibes in taxi. I was reminiscing my childhood when I was 5 years old in 1998 while eating popcorn inside the taxi together with my family. 😊

His songs are timeless. I continue to enjoy listening to them to this day.

James Taylor you can fix my broken heart anytime this Aussie Girl is speaking for you

Esta canción, me trae, recuerdos de mi juventud!! Hermosa!!! Gracias, por hacerme revivir, momento a felices👏👏🎶😀

Best song all time. Great meaning and arrangement.

Como é bom lembrar que vivi minha infância numa época em que tínhamos grandes vozes e músicas que realmente diziam (e ainda dizem) algo e tocam a gente no fundo da alma. Cada geração com seus gostos, mas jamais gostaria de ser dessa geração atual. James Taylor e sua voz incrível.

James your voice is awesome, I remember when I first heard this song, my two youngest children, who are grown up now, they love this song when they first heard it, and we are still listening to it this very day, James Love Ya🤗👍

one of the most beautiful tracks ever.
