“I had no idea that it would mean so much, to so many people” – Carole King’s enduring classic You’ve Got a Friend
Celebrating Music's Greatest StarsAvailable for over a year
When Carole King started writing for her second album Tapestry she had no idea the record would go on to become one of the best-selling albums of all time, and that one of the songs on it would become almost hymn-like for generations of people. Carole talks to Michael Ball about how the success of You’ve Got a Friend surprised her, and how she still finds it difficult to hold back the tears when performing it today.
