    This is a cover version of an Inez and Charlie Fox song from 1963 performed at the No Nukes Concert in 1979. James Taylor and Carly Simon were married at the time and their chemistry shines right through.

    This song was on one of Carly's albums. I think James wrote some additional lyrics for it. I recall that it got a lot of radio play at the time. It's just a fun song. They both are very talented artists. James is a fantastic acoustic guitarist , has a beautiful honeyed kind of voice and he has written a lot of terrific songs. Carly also has fabulous voice and a lot of great songs. They both have a unique sound to their voices. If u heard them on the radio--u knew it was them right away. And when they sang together their voices blended beautifully, which is interesting since they both have such singular sounds.

    I’m so excited & I haven’t even watched the reaction yet! James is known as 1 of the best song writers of all time…my brother is a musician & they have very similar voices. Growing up I always thought it was my brother on the radio. Then when I’d go see his band in person it sounded the same. Obviously eventually I learned the truth lol! My brother wrote a song for James Taylor’s brother Livingston Taylor. Carly Simon is an amazing singer songwriter & musician too. They were together at one point in they’re lives. I’ve been to many many of Taylor’s concerts! Great Crowd! Great People! Great Music! Great Atmosphere! He still performs anyone who can should go see him if you can! ✌🏻☀️

    A favorite Carly Simon song is That's the Way I've Aways Heard It Should Be. And James Taylor is an endlessly engaging singer/songwriter. Please check out his duet with JD Souther on Her Town. There's his iconic Fire and Rain of course but also Mexico, Steamroller, and a song I completely relate to called Traveling Star.

    There is some basic physics involved with the tone and size of the mouth, etc. Large structures resonate at low frequencies and resonance is required to both emit and absorb waves (light and sound). Elephants can communicate with other elephants in notes way too low for us to hear. Cats and dogs can hear and emit pitches higher than we can hear. If they're bigger than us, lower notes, smaller than us, higher notes, our size, same notes.

    They weren’t amicably divorced. James Taylor has refused to speak with Carly Simon for many many years now. They share two kids. It’s really quite sad actually.
    Fun fact: Carly did her Ancestry research with Finding Your Roots a few years ago. Her grandmother was half black. Her father was Jewish & the famous ‘Simon’ of Simon & Schuster’. She’s had a very interesting upbringing.

    They had WOWO sung like 35 times and to win, you had to listen all songs in the order. It was a very hard contest but thousands took up the challenge I think a 13 year old girl from Fort Wayne, Indiana finally one it after the contest ran all summer long.

    When this song came out it was played on the radio CONSTANTLY. I got sick of it, and it's one of those songs that will stick in your head and you can't stop hearing it. And Carly's vocal range is likely 2nd alto, and she may have a range down into the tenor area. I know her range is below my natural one, so I always had trouble singing with her songs.
