FIRE AND RAIN
“…I walked out this morning
& I wrote
down this song,
I just can’t remember
who to send it to...”
James Taylor's breakthrough hit was "Fire And Rain". Issued in early 1970, the song deals with the suicide of a close friend and the protagonist's personal struggles.
The track was lifted off the American singer / songwriter's 2nd album 'Sweet Baby James'. In America, Canada and Australia, the ballad reached the Top 10. Taylor drew inspiration from his personal life for the lyrics.
As
