I know she's a big lib, but what a great voice, along with Carole King, they shaped early 70's music.

Millenials and Z'ers flame away.

Extra-wide dentures.

When I was in infantry training (Camp Geiger) some filthy maggot made fun of me for having “The Best of CS” cassette. “You’re So Vain,” was my favorite tune at the time.

[Gay State Conservative]

I still recall the cover of one of her albums (can’t recall which one). That girl really knew how to wear a sweater!

[Blueflag]

when I was younger I was desperately in love-lust with her. The age difference (12 years) just made her that much more attractive to me.

I was completely politically unawares at the time.

Then I became a thinking adult. She was still hot, but became a “no” in the wrong part of the hot-crazy matrix.

Still love her music, and personally she’s been through a lot.

I wish her the best.

I swear they made the Muppet “Janice” (of Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem) based on Carly Simon’s facial features.

[dayglored]

From the Rolling Stone Interview, January 4, 1973:

RS: Performers usually relate sensually to the audience, and both of you have that quality of being attractive and being attracted to the audience. Can you relate to the audience and be attractive and yet at the same time not let it turn into burlesque?

James: I think perhaps my act is the most unburlesque imaginable. I sit in a chair and don’t move for two hours.

Carly: But you have a very strong sexual appeal. Do you mean you relate to an audience in a completely asexual level?

James: Yes.

RS:It probably relates to Carly more…

James: She’s a piece of ass. It bothers me. If she looks at another man, I’ll kill her.

RS: Carly’s appeal in the beginning was to a female audience, and now there’s a large male audience.

James: Mae West in the flesh.

And she was married to James Taylor, another big lib, but I did enjoy their music.

[Carriage Hill]

If that pic’s is her at 82, she’s still HOT. James Taylor didn’t age so well...

[V_TWIN]

“You’re So Vain”.....if I never hear that song again it’ll be too soon.

[GSWarrior]

She had a string of memorable hits. You’re so Vain is a touchstone of 70s pop..

[Larry Lucido]

She’s so vain. She thinks I think that song is about me.

[ChildOfThe60s]

I’m a Blues and a blues rock person, but I’ll admit she’s talented and she turned out some very slick pop Tunes

[af_vet_1981]

along with Carole King,

To be charitable, I supposed that is like comparing Donovan Leitch to Bob Dylan.

Yes, they all were talented and successful. However Dylan and King were more prolific. King has written more than 400 songs, recorded by over 1,000 artists. Gerry Goffin was a co-writer on so many of those songs as the lyricist.

[Vendome]

Whatever, I haven’t got time for the pain

[Responsibility2nd]

FWIW she was not a Trump fan.

I love Carly, but she has the world’s biggest MOUTH!

Loved everything she did or wrote. Don’t give a fig about her politics.

[married21]

Oh, I wanted to sing like her. She was one of my singing along while driving somewhere favorites.
