Default James Taylor Reposted my Cover of his Song!

Ok, I'm sure he has staff do it, but they reposted my video of Carolina in my Mind on their Instagram page as part of their JT cover challenge. I'm giddy!

Close? (You say that at the end.) Man, you nailed it! Constant and mellow, with a touch of gentle playfulness, like JT himself. Very nice rendition.
