Wow, this is one of the best songs ever. What a fabulous album from a favorite time in my life--high school to college. Carly is one of my all-time faves--still after all these years. This album is probably my very favorite of all. Thanks for sharing!!
Hey Christine, hope you have a great weekend! I have this old album! I have a pile of old albums storred on shelves nice and neat so I can look through them. But I have the tinnitus, so I don't get to listen to them anymore really. Wishing you a great day! Thumbs up on Carly.
Hi Ken, the weekends been fine thanks. Thats cool you have this album! She really has a beautiful voice, and I find her songs are down to earth. Have a great day too my friend, and thanks again for watching and commenting on my videos!
I still have this cassette and it is a Great Album and You're so vain is a classic. This is/has always been my favorite Carly Simon song. An absolutely perfect song/music.
I feel this is the greatest record ever done in this particular genre. It is close to 40 yrs old and it's still as fresh as it was the time of it's release in 1972. The compositions were brillantly song and played by all the musicians involved. Truly a beautiful record that will stand the test of time for decades to come.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I love this song & could only find a "samba type version with her daughter. I love Carly & her voice, I was 12 when this came out & I still love this song. Bravo Carly nobody does it better!!!
This song brings back a special time, and special person in my life...in fact I was giving this song (album back when) and told to "think about it"..at that time I was into my self. Many years later "I got it"..sometimes it takes a humbling experience to sort it out"..thanks for the posting of this song!
Amazing singer , I believe the best of the 70s , in a pool of fantastic female vocalists she was right up there , I"m not taking anything away from the rest , But we have fallen from this to Gaga? My God , we are hurt puppies.
I've loved this song since I was a kid, along with You're so Vain...
'...the water was cold, the beach was empty but for one... then some child came; you never asked for her to come. She drank a pint of your rum. And later when you told me, you said she was a bore...' That is just so well written, so full of implicit meaning and pain. This, like every other song on this masterpiece of an album is a testament to Carly Simon's immense talent, wit, sensitivity and beauty. One of a kind.
This song makes so much sense, because some secrets are secrets for a reason, not to be told to nobody.....lol....I really like Carly Simon music, she always have a message it...
I had the pleasure of meeting Carly 20 years ago and has been a good friend since then... Carly is very shy in person, but when she sits behind the piano, she's totally different!!!! Her music is fresh, raw, and very entertaining....this is one of my fav songs she sings.....Carly is very talented....
There aren't many celebrities I'd care to meet (and I've met and know a few myself as it is) but Carly Simon is absolutely one I would like to talk to. She comes across exactly as you described her--shy but extremely intelligent and sensitive. I hope she realizes how much joy and insight she's brought to so many people with her creativity. My thanks to her for very beautiful music and very obvious sincerity as a person. Cheers.
@czechraiser I hear you...Carly is very smart and she's very savvy in her profession....I think she knows that her fans appreciate her music a lot...she once told me that " When I sing my songs to the fans, I can tell that they appreciate the value of my time writing it by their applause. When I hear that my fans love and enjoy my songs, it means I've done my job!" I will certainly pass on your thanks to her when I see her next.. :)
I remember when this song when it first came out, and to this day, this song will always remind me of this one person who I experienced 1972 with..wonderful part of my life!
@rpetrics You are right it is her best. But I personally believe this records happens to be the greatest record ever recorded by an artist in this particular genre. The compostions brillantly delivered by Ms. Simon are truly special. I remember when this record first came out as my sister had it and we were actually talking about it earliar this evening and I mentioned that even though it has been nearly 40 yrs since it's release it still sounds fresh today. A wonderful record, memories.
She's wonderful for sure.. great music, meaningful.. talented woman with outstanding qualities, also beauty. I can see why you have a crush on her! lol Incredible person really. Thank-you for your comment!
@paddycake5201 I still have a crush on her, as well. She's a beautiful, talented woman whose songs tell poignant stories. This is, by far, one of her best albums!!!
Thanks Christine! Hearing Carly sing these days has become bittersweet for me, after my encounter with the greedy music police! It was a battle that I knew I couldn't win, so I had to remove that video I worked so hard on….
Dan I remember that when it happened to you.. your video was excellent. I disputed here, so hopefully it will stay up.. one never knows for sure if their winning, as yt changes their mind daily lol. Thanks my friend !
CARLY SIMON Keeps on Bringing her Extremely Talented Voice 40 years later!!

@RoryNights I think this album came out around the time of Tapestry, by Carole King, which I have put away also. She had quite the voice!

at 2:22 it gets very dreamy and polished. she was born into money but still had lots of talent.
from about 1970 to 1990 she put out lots of good music.
