    I had the privilege to be there in 1985, seating on the dirt, at that special show and witness James's heart coming back to life, as mentioned in this beautiful song in honor to my Rio...I was probably 50 ft away from the stage and remember the look on James' face, surprised when the Brazilian crowd started singing "You've got a friend" along with him... and what a night! Beautiful sky and the company of some friends who have already left us....

    I saw James perform this wonderful song soon after his trip to Brazil. A free concert he did on the beach in Ft. Lauderdale. I got there very early and got my seat in the sand right in front of the stage. Did I mention it was free?! Great time I had!

    When I lived abroad this song literally brought me into tears bringing back so many good memories of my city. I did make it back to Rio many years ago, and there was a lot to reconcile. Till this day, even with the so so many challenges we have in this city and country, I still feel somewhat blessed to have the opportunity to seize so many wonderful sunsets, watch the clouds in the hidden hills and the holy southern cross in the starry nights. James Taylor is a wordsmith capable of pouring out lyrics and songs that touch our hearts deeply!

      How amazing. A love song about your hometown in English from a gringo who recognized its beauty. Love that it comforted you abroad. One of my favorite JT songs, also touches my heart deeply.

    "Quando a nossa mãe acordar,/ andaremos ao sol./ Quando a nossa mãe acordar,/ cantarão pelo sertão./ Quando a nossa mãe acordar,/ todos os filhos saberão/ - todos os filhos saberão; regozijarão.// Parece uma afirmativa de: - Vejam, nos levantamos com o nascer da Aurora; somos mais - tantos que não importa mais ser competitivo, só amar o próximo e o distante.

    More than a distant land over a shining sea
    More than the steaming green
    More than the shining eyes
    Well they tell me it's only a dream in Rio
    Nothing could be as sweet as it seems
    On this very first day down
    They remind me, "Son, have you so soon forgotten?"
    Often as not, it's rotten inside
    And the mask soon slips away
    Strange taste of a tropical fruit
    Romantic language of the Portuguese
    Melody on a wooden flute
    Samba floating in the summer breeze, take it easy
    It's all right, you can stay asleep
    You can close your eyes
    You can trust the people of paradise
    To call your keeper and tender your good-byes
    Oh, what a night, wonderful one in a million frozen fire Brazilian stars
    Oh, holy southern cross, later on
    Take me way downtown in a tin can
    Can't come down from the bandstand
    And I'm never thrown for such a loss when they say:
    Quando a nossa mae acordar, andareimoz au sol
    Quando a nossa mae acordar, cantara' pelos sertao
    Quando a nossa mea acordar, todos os filios saberao
    Todos os filios saberao, e regozilarao
    Caught in the rays of the rising sun
    On the run from the soldier's gun
    Shouting out loud from the angry crowd
    The mild the wild and the hungry child
    I'll tell you there's more than a dream in Rio
    I was there on the very day
    And my heart came back alive
    There was more, more than the singing voices
    More than the upturned faces
    And more than the shining eyes
    But it's more than the shining eyes
    More than the steaming green
    More than the hidden hills
    More than the concrete Christ
    More than a distant land over a shining sea
    More than a hungry child
    More like another time
    Born of a million years
    More than a million years
