James Taylor Gets Motivated by Audiences
In the interview with the outlet, the singer opened up about keeping his shows interesting. One thing that motivates him to continue what he does is the audience that always supports and watches him.
"The audience, always. The event itself has never failed to supply the motivation and the energy that is required. You know, it's very compelling to go a great distance and to find a crowd of people that have bought tickets to come see me and the band play again," he said.

At his age, Taylor needs to look out for his health. To prevent him from being exhausted from performing, he said in the interview that he doesn't do many shows in a row as he needs a day off unless he has several concerts in the same town or city.
Regardless, there are still times that he gets tired of what he does as he admitted: "I definitely burned myself out a few times."
