You're so vain

[Mitchio7]

soo its not about me?

[karrtt1234]

This song is not about Mick Jagger ! It is about Warren Beatty..

[Penilius]

It turns out this song was about Buddy Hackett.

[paddywacification]

fuck jose!

[joeldesmarais]

This song make absolutely no sense... if the song is not about the person who is vain, then who it is about???

[staklee2002]

i guess many of you know this was about cat stevens

[gerardoloi]

Great Carly !!!!!

[RikkeMig]

It is so great!

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you. Don't you, don't you? ;-D

[candycorps]

I love this song but I'm not sure i like the montge. Not all celebrities are vain just because they are famous, some work their butts off and are great at what they do.

[iqherrera]

YOUR SO VAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheReasonWhyGirl]

You probably think this song is about you, don't you don't you don't you

[gaspipemike5]

The song is a classic...the video is clearly retrospective of the aspect of the need for attention,,,Lindsey..Oprah..To­m..Warren..Paris..Kate and Ashley...they represent a group or a soul individual that think vanity will carry them farther into the future with greater outcome by being bad...or better than other celebrity types...as long as the American people suck it up...and the glory of the celebrity knowing that "They really like me" attitude will never disappear...

[ConditionalID]

great photos. This really just speaks to that whole Sugar Daddy/Sugar Baby meme. Way to go.

[MPTHEBRO]

I had some dreams..they were clouds in my coffee..what a trip down memory lane this song brings back to consciousness..simply exquisite..

[SweetthingSweety]

Isn't this song about Warren Beatty?

[danb1215]

if you look into it, its NEVER been admitted who it is. If you look at the evidence, Warren is the most likely.

[osinho1234]

It's about Mick Jagger - who also sings second voice (Chorus) "I'll bet you think this song is about you. Don't you? ..." A nice bit of self-irony.

Greetings from Germany :):):)

[lantragls]

a song for all times

[miniheli]

Great quote:)

[urbnistiq]

thanks . one of my favorite shows .

=)

[beachbumv1]

I know that song applies to many of the clebs in there, but some of the ones in there are most assuredly not in that category. I could be wrong, I've never met them, but I never got those vibes from Ed Norton or Mel Gibson. Or George Cloony. But screw Demi More. and Tom Cruse. And Paris Hilton. But to say that all of them are like that is a little biased. Not all performers are completely vain.

[catwdpnt]

Dear DeMaddin123, Way to put Hollywood in its place, just as the beuatirul Carly did.

Yours truly,

catwdpnt

[drunkensailor112]

it's about warren beatty

[OnlyAPawn1970]

Song's got to be about Warren Beatty-arrogant bastard.She got'em good.

[drunkensailor112]

how do you mean she got him good?? a song like this is like the biggest compliment a guy can get.

[OnlyAPawn1970]

Being a vain,fashion-boy is a compliment?Grow some balls.Real men aren't prima donnas.

[Dominum]

It's a compliment. And a guy being beautiful does not make him prima donna, being beautiful is good =]

[OnlyAPawn1970]

"you threw away the things you love and one of them was me"-I just think it makes him look like an asshole,asshole.

[KingStevoPunk]

Carly: No, it's definitely not about James, although James suspected that it might be about him because he's very vain. No, he isn't, but he had the unfortunate experience of taking a jet up to Nova Scotia after Id written the song. He was saved by the fact that it wasnt a Lear.

Carly: It certainly sounds like it was about Warren Beatty. He certainly thought it was about him - he called me and said thanks for the song.

[espetasetas5545]

I'm so vain, I think so....

[kevkods]

sounds like your just jealous!hahaha ;)

[bobbyr54]

I just loved the pictures in this video and the way they matched the song so perfectly. You did a fantastic job.

[78rstp]

you can say it again the chicks wow- must be nice to have cash like that -someday

[dollydot123]

If I had to guess who this song was about, my money would be on Mick Jagger.

[alodelafuentecrazy]

i love this songgg... i feel moree speciallll

[HoustonPublisher]

I thought this song was about me. I guess I'm so vain.

[locdogx]

this video is so fucking stupid

[peaceseeder]

who's that girl at 3:57 ^^

[HoustonPublisher]

She's my wife.

[cityboyjeff]

and yes this song is about me LOL

[locdogx]

thats the attitude

[cityboyjeff]

very cool song

[foggie]

Most runway models aren't vain or self-absorbed. They are teenage girls with eating disorders and enormous self-esteem issues.

[Neil6000]

I always thought this song WAS about me.

[mpf52194]

haha..

[torino273]

The amusing thing is I wish this song was about me. Good job on the video. A fitting tribute to a great star.

[kmrollings]

i don't really

think all of these ppl

are vain. i mean they're

just good looking tht doesn't

mean they are vain exactly

for example, i don't

believe angelina jolie or

gillian anderson are vain

but great song!

[erajcii94]

i love this song!

[hasnfefer]

who's that girl at 3: 45

[tehDUB]

Lindsay Lohan. Welcome to planet earth.

[hasnfefer]

Wow, well, what to say. She is a bit problematic girl, and I can't recall any movie which is worth to see so I didn't recognised her. And wheh she was with Paris they didn't wear underwear, so I didn't look at face!! But, anyway thank you!!

[alodelafuentecrazy]

yeahhh cool song /..... except for the slideshow weellll...it was coollll

[MdixieL]

DeMaddin123...... do you have issues with good looking people, models and actors....? So you think that people who find themself on covers of magazines are all vain??? Do you live that far from society and reallity.... Maybe you just have a self-estime problem, you know!!! GREAT song by the way! And what a GREAT ARTIST!

[custer1968]

Atualy..this song is about Micheal Sovain...an Austrian sculptor

[espetasetas5545]

probably yes

[AlexDCl]

So...was the song about him or not? That is the question.

[espetasetas5545]

this*

[espetasetas5545]

tis song is about meee!!!!

[nonie73wgrace]

I Love what she or he did here with this song and the celebrity pictures great work !

[magi134ema]

i love how shes saying that they are vain cuz they think the song is about them but really it is...ha ha ...the irony

[spider196047]

Dedicated to THE ICE QUEEN MURRAY! Head of our HR Department! Walks on everybody and pauses and wipes her feet on you than moves on...A daily occurance!

[kieghacat]

should have shown more pics of keira knightly. she goes pretty well with this song...

[magi134ema]

harsh

[kieghacat]

but true...

[magi134ema]

maybe...probably

[00Alexis11]

Who can tell me what "sabbine mossie" means?????

[juanchiii]

who is the one on minute 3:15 ??

[00Alexis11]

Brittany spears end desperate housewives

[bleachedblak]

watta bitch

[rketman]

nice slide show to a great song.  my vote is that it's about Mick Jagger. I don't think back then the Beatty could afford his own Lear jet like Jagger. And JT was her husband during this time and is totally opposite of the song.

[kharms2007]

It's certainly not about James Taylor. Yes, she was married to him, but they have children and he is the OPPOSITE of vain. Check out his videos. I understand that she did confess recently it was about Warren Beatty.

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

TAKE A WILD GUESS WHO IS ON BACKING VOCALS???????

carley wont say who the song is about

its from the 70's

[kelliarn]

lookayad I am sorry you feel that way. I guess I really didn't know you.

[lookayad]

Hey Kelli,this song kinda fits your personality...

[iamthepeppernator]

Heh, Beatty thinks he's the one of the song...Stern makes it seem interesting though, with another, less obvious choice.

[michellemabelle23]

que de souvenirs !!!!

[christophkoenig]

Graet! Thank YOU!

[godofskillz]

If the song isn't about that person, than who is it about? lol. I love this song :)

[Doodlebug43]

Great job with the video - I love the song and I happen to think the song is about one of the three: Jagger, Taylor & Beatty; however, Carly only knows who.

[msmiles2007]

Very well put together, I thought this was a great video! ;)

You're so vain i'll bet you think this Comment is about You!

[pRpAnGi3]

good video!! but i'm a vain

[michaellovesthecat]

wow know comment love the post good  work

[TheMasterEye]

cool :)

[pocomamma]

Don't we all know people in real life to whom this song applies? I sure do and aviod them like the plague...smile.

[evomuns]

i bet your really ugly and jealous.

[evomuns]

i bet your really ugly and jealous.

[RobertGary1]

Its really not fair to fault celebrities. This is their living. Its how they feed themselves. If anyone is vain its the people who watch them.

[GermanFox88]

Uuuuuuuh, social critic on them stars. Aaaaawesome. 1/5.

[kylebe611]

Excellent Video! I love this song! Oh, and great choice on the stars and starlettes.

[gjanie]

Great video? I think to myself what contribution do models make to society, the world, besides looking pretty on the runway and getting paid ridiculous amounts of money.

[Captainxxjack]

i completely agree w/ Brad Pitt, the Olsens, Brittney Spears, Tom Cruise, Angelina Jole, Paris Hilton and George Clooney..but i love Richard Gere

xDD

[WiccanWitch61646]

Who are all the people? I recoginse some of them - Paris Hilton, Oprah, Brittany Spears, etc. - but others... o_O

[LozMac33]

it could be about christiano ronaldo

[jake482]

Great song, Great vid, Good work

[greenpeace450]

i like this song...yours is really goo quality

[Soundchaser121]

I think this song is about Warren Beatty?In his earlier years, Beatty was an unapologetic womanizer whose list of famous lovers included Joan Collins, Leslie Caron, Madonna, Julie Christie, Liv Ullmann, Brigitte Bardot, Carly Simon (who is rumored to have written "You're So Vain" about him.

[RobertGary1]

some is probably about Beatty, the first part is about Jagger, the rest is probably Taylor. She's all but admitted to this but she seems to want to keep some secrecy until they all die.

[adunn990305]

Rafalko: this may be for you!!!

[sweetcheeks543]

this song should be about paris hilton

[bls31088]

this would have been better if instead of run-way models you had pictures of actors and actresses on the red carpet at the grammies or emmies

[katscat25]

hahahaha  wow what are you REALLY thinking??

[phoneix91]

I thought it was about James Taylor

[phoneix91]

is this song about a guy right ; is about James Taylor the guy she was with

[katscat25]

she won't say, there is a LOT of speculation, she refuses to give away the answer.

It could also be Mick Jagger or Warren Beatty who she also dated around that time. She refuses 2 say.

[ccr08]

uh... why is oprah in there? some of the celebs were a stretch, but oprah?

[bocher222]

gillian is my cup of tea not me cup of tea

[Canstey84]

I love this song! I did a version of this song too . If you wanna check it out just click my username or paste this above: /watch?v=9v5MDMIzjsk

[myredrose1974]

I surely Don't think Edward Norton is Vain. He is Far from it. Nor is Reese Witherspoon.

[silverbow2]

Yeah but no one really "knows" who is vain and who isn't. Sometimes the people who seem the most vain actually have the lowest self esteem. But all of these people have the potential to be vain, and the video is great even if they aren't all vain, or even if they are.

[locdogx]

i think this video is demonstrating how there is such a widespread fad of celebrity worship in our country. Edward Norton isnt vain, its just the role he is playing in society makes him an easy target to be labeled as such.

[myredrose1974]

I have to agree with that. He also doesn't get the full respect of his acting ability. He's F****** great!!!

[browneyes1987green]

its a good song, and this has a good way to bring them all back down to earth. but if you are born natraly beautiful then why no be a model and make some money. especally if you dont have anyother tallent to make ur path with. but i do get this vid.

[cne08]

You can add The Hogans to this video.

[iheartgeeks25]

i adore this song!

[1fishhook1]

Any body no who is before Demi? She is smokin hot.

[loiscotee15]

kiera knightley

[Gem2x87]

Aww Reese Witherspoon isn't vain.

[holiday07]

i agree, she isn't

[tariqsayed]

great song. lol

[softballgirl9362]

LOVE THE VIDEO!!! so true

[tropicaluvr97]

Back off on Britney!

[Traveldoctor00]

Great video and I love it, and i love George Clooney and Brad Pitt and AJ,

[chillidk]

vain all off them.....

[Traveldoctor00]

I agree, they might be vain, though, I commented from their Movie personalities only.

My good looking and sexy  comment is reserved for my husband only:-)

[ptoimagination]

ugh, i always dislike tom cruse and george clooney. i definitley think they are soooo vain. i'm a woman, but I don't even understand that people think they are hot&sexy. yuck! tom is so without personality and can't act, and george is just a guy with an oddly long face and sad puppy eyes. how's that sexy?ugh.

[chillidk]

so true.... it seems that you have more between your ears than others girls... ;-)

[Traveldoctor00]

George Clooney and Bradd Pitt are just good to look at for a while, Not sexy or anything,

I like thir movies more than i like them as people.

Although pitt gets a vote from me for his philanthropy

[adunn990305]

Don't you?

[ANOTHERITGIRL]

Omg, do you know ánything about those stars you call vain? Angelina Jolie, Karl Lagerfeld, George Cloony, they are so not vain! And Oprah neither. Maybe you're just a bit jealous.

[adunn990305]

fucking love it.

[creokawm]

I love mick jagger!

[aspicymeatball]

you can't put christopher reeves picture in this music video! if anyone is unselfish it was him.

[lynr30]

this is my karaoke classic i luv it.

[CashStashSecret]

Carly said it was about Warren Beatty in an interview.

[PhantomDog]

I heard it was about James Taylor but I think Warren Beatty myself.

[MsBooLoo]

Love the song...enjoyed the video.

[yaay303]

i love this song its awesome

[italianfemale]

This is a very good song!!!!!! Yup!!!

[aprilxbabee]

how is heather marks vain?

you just took a bunch of models for the first clips. i like the starlets better as being vain

[dootlebopxoxo]

haha wow. i love this song, my mom said this song was perfect for me. Lmfao

[dikerer]

I SHOULD BE IN THAT VIDEO :) LOL

[paddycake5201]

very cool. love carly simon big crush.

love this song you clips were very cool. thank you.

[samran7]

technically the song is about him=P

[creokawm]

I've been WAITING for someone to figure that out!  :)

[krazykritik]

this song is about Warren Beatty..and her tumultuous affair with him..the song speaks of "going to Nova Scotia on a plane to see the solar eclipse"..Beatty did this..and "going to Saratoga raceway and his horse naturally won"..Beatty owned racehorses all over with Saratoga being his favourite place to watch them..he was and still is a very vain man..no it was not about James Taylor..

[CammyPeace]

i am in Love with this song

[peggymummy]

why am i jude whyte  Not in this video

[DIRSAMUSA]

It was about TED NUGENT !

[Zeratul723]

No, it's about Warren Beatty.

[1000brokenlimbs]

thanks for making a clip about me that was fucking shit btw die in hell and rott 4 ever

use your time for some thing not this shit

[sexyboi1966]

to all the jealous fuck up nigga guys in controlling relationships...kiss our asses

[aikoshell]

James Taylor....vain? You don't know what your talking about at all. One of the poorest videos that I've seen lately...

[haleykins17]

You dont even know these people. They may be successful, it doesnt give you a reason to think they're vain. Anyway, i just love the song.

[pyroum]

Christopher Reeve so does not belong on this video. He wasn't a big guy to go on his looks before his accident, he brought awareness to the plight of the disabled. This is an insult.

[karlstevenson]

ok the backing singer on this is rubber lips himself mick jagger,last i heard about this lady she was fighting breast cancer????

[zigzagjoe69]

yeah

mention the bad bits

ya wee cunt

[gypsymiranda]

I heard that it was about Mick jagger

[mzperformerxoxo]

me 2!

[eden1963]

When this song came out, it was thought this song was about Warren Beatty.

[theRubyRunner]

I generally go back and forth on how I feel about Oprah. She does like to give cash and goods to people and charities, but she sorta has a god complex.

[JAGAE]

great bass intro from klaus voormann

[RadicalNewBreeds]

This song is about them!!! Clever! Ha! We knew, all along- we knew. you just put the pictures to it!

[blueeyedangel628]

they're SO vain.. They probably think this song is about them... Dont you ??

[iduhnoe]

i love this song :D anyone ever watch how to lose a guy in 10 days? lol

[HeavenPrayer]

yes, of course^^ nice film

[zeostar22]

yeah like 1 hr ago on channel USA now im addicted to the song...

[ZeroPointLibra]

Youre thinking of another movie, I think its called little black book...oh wait no, they sing this song in that movie as well. But little black book actually has carly simon in it lol

[theRubyRunner]

Very smooth. There are quite a few media whores in the slide show.

[smiles4me3]

i liked this a bunch.

so true, so true

[MaddieMadds]

Very nice, a bit of old, a bit of new

[poetryingreen]

I thought it was a good collection. The Tom cruise face was the best. ... because he is the worst

[boyluvasistas]

son of a gun

[lilacs45]

I don't particularly think Angelina Jolie is vain, she donates a lot to charity and has adopted many kids. But who knows?

[mzperformerxoxo]

Just because your a celeb and you donate stuff... half the time its for... PUBLICITY... AND MOST PEOPLE WHO DO THAT ARE... WHATS THAT WORDS?? CARLY HELP ME OUT...VAIN!!!!!!!!!!!

[pitchycastle]

that's probably true. but still, they are donating and it's not less good for those who get these donations and really need them. so instead of judging maybe everyone should participate and it weren't worth to be called publicity, vanity, image or whatever.

[gbnk1]

i just made a vid based on this song for my bud.

i love it:)

[Susej0]

i think basically vain means people who think theyre good
