Lyrics:
And it's too late, baby, now it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died
And I can't hide and I just can't fake it
Oh no no no no (no no, no no)
#CaroleKing #ItsTooLate #BBCInConcert - เพลง
I was 20 when this beautiful song came out; Im 72 now and so much has happened to, not just me, but the world. This song never fails to lift my spirits. Thank you Carol King ❤
I bought it then as well. And I’m 72. Speechless
@charlesflett2818 Well obviously great minds think alike! 😉
I seem to like this song in a different way to you. I wouldn't say it lifts my spirits at all. But I am always riveted by its evocation of failed love.
Agreed! But it must be a dark spirit connecting you. Darker song (bc it’s too late). Magical chord changes. W O W.
@@jedgould5531 try watching a live performance. I think it’s an eighties one. It’s even better than the recording.
Carole King, Karen Carpenter, Carley Simon, Joni Mitchell, Roberta Flack, Judy Collins and Joan Baez. Unmistakable iconic voices.
.......and Olivia Newton-John, Elkie Brooks, Diana Ross, and Dionne Warwick - remember them too. These are all way, way.............. better than some very average or poorer vocalists nowadays. Why not also mention the late, great John Miles (Mr. "Music"), and Tina Turner too.
@@Tony-H-Gos I often read comments like this on TH-cam, almost always from older people (of which I am one) and they hack me off. This risible over-generalisation that people can't sing these days. There is more music than ever right now augmented by the TV 'talent' shows so the ratio of 'very average or poorer vocalists' is certain to be higher. But there are plenty of singers who are every bit as good as those you speak of and please don't mention auto tune. Try listening to Weyes Blood and Angel Olsen and tell me, hand on heart, that they are 'average.' Or in the rock/metal sphere, Floor Jansen of Nightwish.
linda ronstadt too !
@@davidbentley4032 Calm down Karen
Legends!
Proof that the music industry survived and thrived without auto tune and pitch correction.
And was much better for it!
Amen !
Back in the days when true talent ruled the airwaves. Carol King is one of the greats. Today’s music (if you can call it that) is deplorable.
Listen to Olivia Rodrigo doing the tribute to Carly Simon with You’re So Vain. Then tell me people can’t sing nowadays.
I think you just made their point.
The clue is in "today's music".
A música atual está ruim porque as pessoas também estão.
You just aren’t listening to the right music out now.
@justinkohl3818 I have children who listen to all sorts and even they aren't all that impressed either.
"Still I'm glad for what we had and how I once loved you...." Oh man....
I know. It eats you
I'm a young millennial, but I have to say Pop stars today can't begin to compare with this woman. I don't know how I didn't discover her sooner. She's awesome.
Trust me I'm 62 ( no judgement or disrespect at all) there's a who lot you are missing so keep watching you tube & educate yourself & your friends on losing all your freedoms SOON... with what you all are being "taught"
Wow we are honoured. Nice to see you. Welcome to the hippie commune.
Yep since the early 70's
@@mikekron6968I don't think they're going to cancel you tube lol
@@RStark-ek7mh Brings back good memories, huh?
I introduced my kids to Carole King in the late 90s. They still love her music. Timeless
I am 66 and watched this show live in 1971 and it still sounds great. The BBC liked to record singer-songwriters in an unplugged environment. Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Elton John, Laura Nyro, James Taylor, Eagles, Cat Stevens, Crosby & Nash were featured. The found quality was always excellent. This was a wonderful era for music.
The 70's wouldn't have been the same without the Tapestry album
Ain't that the truth. One of the greatest albums ever recorded.❤
Absolutely
My sister introduced Carole King to me she used to play it every night when we all went to sleep tragically she got in a car accident at 17 is no longer with us rest in peace Lynn
😢❤🌈🙏Greetings from Germany ❤❤❤❤
@@zeppelinbksaludos desde Mexico🇲🇽
She is in your heart forever. A Hug from Argentina. ❤
Is this your sister singing Steve! She’s a great one! ❤
My deepest condolences 💐✝️🙏
I am 57. I was 6 when "Tapestry" came out. Everyone and I mean everyone I remember owned, liked or played it. It was like the Mary Tyler Moore Show, very empowering to women.
❤
Since when were women not 'empowered'?
and why all of you are single with cats
Three instruments and one incredible unmistakable voice. There will never be another Carol King. I am 63 and I still love this song to this day...
I’ve loved this song yesterday, today and tomorrow. I have no words to describe how much this entire Album affected my life.
I appreciate you always Ms. Carole Queen!
I mean Ms. Carole King 👑
Beautiful voice
I am 64 agree with you
I'm Japanese woman age 55.This song my favorite
I´m 63 too and you are absolutely right, UNMISTAKABLE VOICE. Portugal
I went to school with Carole's daughter, Louise back in the '70s. Carole would occasionally join us girls for morning coffee and date nut bread at Du-Pars in Studio City. Very cool mom!! She is such an amazing songwriter and performer. Her songs have carried me through for decades.
Cool😉👍
U are incredibly lucky to have experienced that. I love the 70s. Wish I grew up in that era
Wow.. that’s amazing. She seems very down to earth. Through some close friends when I was a teenager back in the late 80’s we went out to Martha’s Vineyard and ended meeting and becoming friends with Carly Simon’s and JamesTaylor’s daughter, Sally Taylor. She looked so much like Carly. Very cool girl and laid back. Great memories and I feel very fortunate for my experiences early on. Oh and yes... the artists then were truly artists. TIMELESS
Cool.
Any idea the story behind this song?
@@chaplainmattsanders4884 Nope.
Beautiful! My dad was back from Vietnam and my brother was headed over.
Incredible really how many songs Carol wrote that we still hear today. She really is a genius to write and perform so many songs that we know.
My mom passed away from cancer a few years ago, but i remember her playing this record when i was a kid brings back memories of her. 😊
Without a doubt a national treasure. Tapestry was one of the best albums of all time. Can't help but love that lady! What a talent!
She was EVERYBODY'S very talented big sister for about a year.
I was 20 in 1971 dating Michelle B. (who I was crazy about) when this song came out. It had a melodious richness that blew me away. Man, were those the days.
A piano, a guitar and a beautiful pure voice.
Don't forget the bass player.
This lady is an absolute treasure, misic will always find a way of being unique but this is genuine
I love the way James slips in a touch of the 'Funky Nassau' guitar lick at the end of his solo, much to the amusement of Carole and the bass player. Looks like they were having fun.
The early seventies Brooklyn in this song is positively palpable.
I was taken to a hospital at that time, nine months vanished in a mad sadness, thought wouldn't make it. I had a small radio with me and this song became a significant friend of my abism. Will never forget about that.
I am 58 and anything that Carole King does reminds me of the coolest teacher I ever had. Her name was Joan Saunders. She was fresh out of College and got a Lead Teacher job in my School District to replace a teacher that planned to travel around the World. I still think of her as the most influential person of my youthful life. I was 6 years old and the War was happening and was really bad. She was into Peace, Freedom for all, The Ecology, and treating people the right way. She taught us that everyday. The best part is she filled in for my First Grade year, and did such a great job that she got hired. Then, I had her again in Third Grade. She is part of why I am who I am today. I am a Humanitarian. I am an activist for the Environment and am against War and believe nothing that our Government (USA) says about anything. God Bless you Mrs. Joan Saunders, wherever you are. Spring House Elementary in Spring House, PA.
I can't listen to this song without thinking of what it sounds like on a transistor radio laying in the grass in my back yard back in the 70's
Same here, glorious times!
Wow man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Transistor radio, had one of those with the one ear plug, I had another radio about 12 inches high it had leather on the outside or looked like leather and it had 3 knobs in the front for the volume the station and I forget what the other one was for and a handle on top, I miss thoses days❤🎉😊
one of my all time favorites from one of the most prolific songwriters of my era.
I'm 52. I think I first heard this I was about 6 years old. The melody just kept playing in my head. 😊
Carole King: authentic musician, raw and honest. THIS is music. No bullshit formulaic pop music with autotune and special effects. 2024, are you listening??
Yes, wonderfull❤❤❤❤
Yep
I remember when the album Tapestry came out. I was 12 at the time. It still remains as one of my favorites. Im 65 years old now, and yet i appreciate the older songs that have withstood the test of time.
We don't search for old songs, we search for old memories♥️
MASTERPIECE
Profound
The sweet songs & memories of my life...💕
So true… your comment brought a tear to my eye
❤
Great to see Kootch getting some recognition 👍🇬🇧👍
I could never forget this presentation, it was part of my high school graduation. Congratulations Carole King & James Taylor.
Such a beautifully haunting song - it’s been covered by MANY, but no one’s version is quite as beautiful as Carols.
Brings me back to the good times of the early seventies
Man, just CRUSHING it musically, vocally AND tearing your heart out....and has the time to brush her hair out of her face at the same time.
She just gave up and was like 'fuck that I'll just create my own instrument if you can't hit that note lol'
Back in the day, EVERYONE had that Tapestry album
Hi Ellen
It's a beautiful & heart touching song❤❤Hello from Scotland!.
How are you doing today? I guess you have a great passion for music just like I do? I hope to hear from you soon!!!
1973 at 16 me and my girlfriend broke up., must have played this song and album a thousand times. Fastforward to 2023 my wife and i have just separated, yup, here i am again, thank you Ms. Carol King, your music is medicine.
Carol King s a musical genius. She deserves way more credit then she’s been given, but most geniuses do.
Yes 👍.
2 time rock and roll Hall of famer that says enough.
Her and Todd Rundgren (even though King was a little more talented) never got the credit they deserved
Had all her records way back .She was a Big Star 🌟 in those days
❤️❤️
Beautiful music I the 70's💪🙋still have that album
Absolutely legend in action. Just thrilled to see how the legend played it live ...
The date was 10 Feb 1971, exactly the one when Tapestry was released. The program must be a seminal, monumental event for BBC.
Tapestry was the first Album I bought. Played it non-stop . This music was new, exciting and there was so much going on in the music industry at the time. It was a very creative time. And a precurser of things to come. But a lot of interesting artists and music have evolved since then. Music is perpetual.
It 0nly figures that this MASTERPIECE came to Existence 1971 .........The Same YEAR of My Birth!!!!
I was born in 1969. When Tapestry was released my mom had the LP, and played it until the grooves were worn out. I learned what real music was about, and these are my favorite memories. I was truly blessed to have heard the best music ever recorded because my mom introduced me so early. I went to school with the intention of becoming a DJ. For years my mom would always say if I knew my homework as well as I knew music I would be a straight A student. I had the best teacher, every genre, and it truly spoke to my soul. ❤️🎶❤️
Released 1971......, hope she had no laud speakers
Back in 1971, it was pretty safe to say that Carole King was the top female performer in the world. Maybe even the top period performer in the world. If not, close, very close.
Carole King…you were my first true love! ❤️ what an amazing voice, musician, writer and human being!
I was 14 and and attended a Catholic high school where I played Carol King on the jukebox in the cafeteria , the also had a smoking room so thick you could hardly see, and the nuns baked HUGE chocolate chip cookies for a nickel.
I met Carole King briefly on the side of a stage when she was on a USO tour in Kosovo. she was so nice and we chatted for a few seconds and then pardoned herself as she was "next on stage" she was so nice I didn't realize it was her! Carol, thanks!
Split up with a girl back in 2016 and played this all day as I painted the house...it relaxed me .... still felt the pain though.
What a wonderful thing to say ellie. Not to mention that you have said in just a few meaningful sentences what i cannot express in several paraghraps, as well as capture the feelings of passing years. Im 64 myself and totally enjoyed the music in my youth tnx
That there folks is talent...and a lot of it..
This lovely woman's music has been a comfort to me for 50 years! I just turned 70 years and I am so glad she has been with me all this time!
Nicely said
The ones that had the priviledge to be a teenager at those times can be happy. I was a teen those years
So am I do
This lovely woman has been a comfort to me the last ten years, but she's now70 years old and that could be a problem...
Im 64.bought this album when i left school
Good memories
Was 13 then, I hear her voice and I feel like teen again. Tears.
To SteveGagnon .... my heart is listening to your soul .... words are so relevant to many of us ... how do we go on ... memories and Carole's voice say it all.... we just go on and live ...somehow
It ' s never too late to listening to Carole King
Best comment ever 💗
absolutely
Es una pena su retiro ,yo no me canso de escucharla, bellísima canción
it¨s a really
Time wait for no one
Brings tears as I enter the end of my ten year relationship 😢
❤
😢
I love this song ,when I was 10 was giving this tapestry álbum and i listened to it many many times Every single day ! Thanks a lot Mrs Carole King
Awesome I was 17 yrs old and no matter the time, this music will be in our hearts 💕, love Sergio Mendes and his music!!❤
Brings tears to my eyes. It reminds me how I felt before my divorce. We were circling the drain, caught in a gravity well. No escape
Time will heal what reason cannot. I'm sure I'm echoing the sentiment of everyone who reads your comment when I say may you find peace and happiness again.
I went to see on Broadway the musical about Carole, it was fantastic…but the real Carole is so much better, she’s irreplaceable
One of the best musical 😊 genius 's ever. Can't say enough about her.
I was 11 years old when they recorded this ..I have always loved her music!!!
Considering the performance is over 52 years old the audio and video quality is just simply amazing ! Wow ! :)
Yup... That's the BBC for you, they nail live 👍😥
@@dudestyle01 You are so right about the BBC, very competent employees. It's a totally different music genre, but to support your comment have you seen the "Tubular Bells" live recording done in 1973 also by the BBC. Very impressive recording. th-cam.com/video/KXatvzWAzLU/w-d-xo.html
Analogic technology, the best quality audio ever.
I remember sitting in the back seat of my father's 1974 chevy Nova listening to the song in the fall in st Paul MN. Memories
I love how the guitarist made the most of his moment. His solo was soulful and brilliant
Yep...and I noticed he incorporated the riff from the song, "Funky Nassau" during the solo (3:21), which made Carole smile. Funky Nassau was a hit on the radio but wasn't released until March of '71. I bet the date on this video is off by a few months.
What a bittersweet song of resignation.
Carole King has written & co-written so many good songs. I’m incapable of writing one.
Genius. No lip sync, auto tune , flashy production etc. Pure raw talent
Indudable temaso chidos recuerdos
and really good quality video for 1971
You can always check out NPR tiny desk or Audiotree if you want something similar nowadays
Can we include Melanie Safka as well?😊
Brand New Key etc....
Nice to hear Danny “Kootch” Kortchmar here, not drowned out by other musicians.
I love that I grew up with the music of so many fine artists in my life. Thank you for the inspiration and insight. I hope others are able to find a similar experience.
I've owned Tapestry on vinyl, cassette, CD, and MP3. It's still a perfect album.
The piano intro of this song is one of the best of all time. Just my humble opinion of course.
Carole King is a national treasure, her music is legendary. Love Carole King!
If the U.S. were a monarchy, she would be a "Dame" by now.
Amen to that Juan and my best to you and your family take care my friend
Yes indeed
Yap! I was second -year student at Moscow University in 1972 when one of my friends received Tapestry on vinyl record as a gift from his relative in US. Since then I have heard-a-many records and tapes, as the Music is important part of my life. So Tapestry is unrivalled in its raw sensuality, wilderness and beauty in all its ingredients -lyrics, vocals, arrangements and specially string arrangements. Carol King is God blessed gift to the humans. Tapestry, Hunky Dory, Dark Side of the Moon, Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. These are four milestones on which entire modern music is held. Es pura verdad, amigo!

One of those songs I find myself riffing in the kitchen or doing housework - very true words in different life situations....
Reminds me of days singing this song with the radio I still love it at 76 yrs old
Boy, I tell you, this is the one that transports me completely back in time...
1972. St Paul, Minnesota. I was babysitting; the kids were in bed, and I put this album on low after grabbing a soda out of the fridge and a bag of chips. The youngest in her fluffy onesie kept wanting to get out of her crib. She's a doctor, now...
I played through the entire album twice, but it's this song that grabs my heart the most... ❤
Great story! crazy where the time goes. Those were great days. No tiktok and distractions. I really feel sorry for the kids today. My babysitter watched for me when I went from Toronto to St. Paul as a 3M rep in Toronto. :)
Ahhh ❤❤
@@andrewdouris6035 Ah, yes. Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing...
Awesome 😊👍
What a great voice and musician.👍
1971 grandparents and I left New York to Miami waiting for the house 🏠 to be finished cold ❄️ November moved in . These were the songs on the radio then .
Such a beautiful song, but sad at the same time. One of the best songwriter's ever.
The best thing that happened is when she started to sing her own songs. Beautiful and perfect ❤️
very well said 👏 👍
carole King I love
You do know she wrote the music, not the lyrics?
Wish I was there watching them live! I wasn't even born yet.
When this was recorded, I was 10 and a bit years old. Its still with me yet.
THIS GEM WAS RELEASED 51 YRS AGO. THE FIRST VINYL I EVER BOUGHT. 🌹❣️. Thank you Ms. King
I just love this!
Hi
It's a beautiful & heart touching song❤❤Hello from Scotland!.
How are you doing today? I guess you have a great passion for music just like I do? I hope to hear from you soon!!!
I think that her 1974 Album Jazzman was vastly underated.
Written and performed before I was born. Loved and enjoyed during my life. Remembered and cherished after I am gone.
"Still I'm glad for what we had and how I once loved you ... " gets you every time.
Nossa essa música me remessa aos meus 16 anos ❤
Oh what beautiful memories. I was not even a teenager but when I heard the song. I beg my parents to buy it. That album was being played all day and all night in our house❤❤❤❤❤
I'm a little boy again in the 70's...lol😅😊 here in CAPE Town ,South Africa,Apartheid and all that but life was still good😅😊❤
I love her!
Hi Lynn💐💐
What a pretty and most fascinating woman ,hello my darling ?
Carol king is amazing
I was born in 75 but i love this decades music
Grew up hearing this as a kid, never saw her or was sure who sang this. She sounds incredible, such an ear caressing voice, so easy going and smooth.
I love you carole king
What a pretty and most fascinating woman ,hello my darling ?
There’s something so genuinely authentic about her.
Beautiful..... truly beautiful.... thank you so much for sharing ..... please keep up the good work ....
It was filmed with a panaflex film camera, the original " high definition", thats why it still looks new !
This lady is a true music icon. Simply a stellar musician.
One of the best songwriters ever - very underrated. Tapestry is an astonishingly good album - every single song is brilliant. And she is utterly gorgeous!!
John, very well said! I second everything you said, with the possible exception of being under-rated. I've seen where some consider her one of the best of all time, and so I'd agree with them. And she is very beautiful indeed!
But if others don't think she's one of the best, then you're right, they are under-rating her.
What makes you think she’s underrated?
Still have the vinyl of Tapestry
I have my tapestry album on CD.
