I had often heard that they were competitive between each other but with that said, they are two timeless classics that have changed the music world for the better and they are both legendary in their own ways. Wish music could be that way in today’s world ❤❤❤
Carly Simon is not only a gifted singer/songwriter, but the woman herself is a Queen! God bless her, what a beautiful soul. I'm grateful we've had her as an example of goodness and love.
In 1979 I was a Senior member in a high class hospital in the Netherlands. No one here had a radio, but all had 100% healthcare, and a solid economy! And no idiots as Trump on the road, we might have given more throttle!!!
I was wondering the same thing. Also, it seems like she had a lot of relationships “in the early seventies” when she was also married toJames Taylor? 🤔
I remember sitting in the elementary school gym in Oak Bluffs here on Martha's Vineyard back in 1970,and listening to them do a concert for the benefit of I think our hospital here.Both of them were so nice and friendly over the years
@@skyeblu1722 no… there isn’t. Music in the 50s to the 90s were more real and a lot of artist wrote their own music . Now everything is Woke. And a lot of singers use Auto tune and other computer gadgets so anyone can sound decent. and 99% of music today is written by the same people and all the songs are the same. If you listen to any new songs today, if you really listen. They are the same . The words are a bit different, but the music is the same. Back in the day, when I was young, the music brought out feelings . Not just about sex, we hear them today, they bring back feelings and great memories.
@@maestromike91971 They still are lots of music with meaning. You're just not looking hard enough. Here are some suggestions. William Wild, William Fitzsimmons, Paris Jackson, Duquette Johnson, Evan Bartels, Joe Purdy, Matt Maeson, Phoebe Bridges, The White Buffalo, Avi Kaplan, Adele, Chris Stapleton, Cigarette After Sex, Lana Del Rey, Nothing More, Father John Misty, Tyler Childers, S.G Goodman. And a-lot more just got to look for it.
Music can really heighten the romantic feelings in a relationship, when both people love it and play instruments, sing, or get involved in some way together. Music bonds people.
I think it was James Taylor describing their relationship as Hungry woman Angry man, have to say that comment never left my head. I enjoy both of their music, Carly being the more ethereal of the two.
Yeah always heard it was James Taylor but having met Warren Beatty he is definitely Vain yet His wife Annette is a absolute Sweetheart. I met them at a very prestigious dinner party in Pacific heights in the early 2000s well actually I really only met her because he walked by like his Shit don't stink.
I just love Carly and James together and always will ! So want them to be friends, they have 2 awesome kids they created from all their own creativity! ❤
@@FactsVerse I liked the tone of your video. I would like to see more videos that have a respectful tone. I really dislike videos that are click bate and sensational.
Jim Hart’s eventual decision to come out as a gay man was a major factor in his divorce from Carly Simon. This fact had been made public in memoirs written by both Jim and Carly.
@@TheVineyarder I am very glad to learn that Jim and Carly have remained friends. In particular I’m glad because she and James have essentially no contact, and Carly has admitted publicly that emptiness has hurt her greatly.
James Taylor was the love of her life. She really could not ever stop thinking about him. Read about her in "Girls Like Us", a book about the lives of Carly, Joni Mitchell, and Carole (Klein) King.
Although both are far too politically left for my taste, I'm still a huge fan of Carley Simon and James Taylor. If they ever competed against each other, I can understand why. They are both huge stars in the music industry. Two of the greatest we've ever and will ever, have seen in our lifetime.
I was never able to hear Mick Jaggers backing on You're so vain. Couldn't hear it over the radio or when playing the single at home 20 years later heard the CD release whilst in the supermarket and heard it loud and clear. Dont think they were still doing mono mixes in 1975 so dont know why.....
Every woman who dated Warran Beaty has either praised him or kept it private. Nobody has said anything negative about him. What a lucky guy he was given the women he's dated.
I never really cared for her vocals that much although some of the lyrics are intriguing. I feel most of her branding was based upon her look of the day.
I read her book " Boys in the Trees" & I got so tired of Jim Hart trying to compare himself to James Taylor, like that was his only claim to fame. Jim Hart, you don't look like JT, you look like Jim Hart...lol..I think he was a hanger on to Carly's fame, until she got tired of him & he revealed that he was gay. He was a bad alcoholic & a crack addict ( I read his book ). It didn't seem that he contributed much to their relationship, besides trying to be James Taylor # 2 to everybody. I think JT saw thru this facade also, & was not impressed. Jim Hart thought he was a "trophy husband" for Carly but even she disclosed in her book that he was a lousy kisser, & that this really turned her off sexually. She felt that if she had to teach him how to kiss, that it just took the spark & any spontaneity out of anything that they ever had.
I recall my older male cousin commenting on that cover pic (referencing her breasts/nipples) where you see it ALL thru her top!! It was quite provocative for that time-I always thought she was beautiful!!
Simon was also with Warren Beatty wow 😯 oh no not Jager ❤ oh no the woman that looked like a school 🎒🎒 boy I'm a fan who really loved both Carly Simon and James Taylor 💗 and I really don't care about the rest🍁Carly it is really okay 👍 that you are now apart of the 80 🍁 in my heart ❤️🥀 of hearts you will always be so vein ❤ keep it up 🪖70 child of beautiful ❤️🥀❤️🥀❤️🥀 beautiful music 🌹🎶 Thank You Carly 🍂💐💐💐
She married to james from 72-83, but.she had affairs with these guys during the 70’s. She did the worst thing by announcing to the public that she was leaving him because he was a heroin addiction. I haven’t listened to her since the 70’s and wont
Both of them unfaithful. They are two talented musicians with complicated lives. Carly said they had 9 great years. The rest probably they were emotionally distant and busy with other things.
James refuses to speak to Carly even though they share children. I think she is too much a reminder of his massive drug addiction which he has overcome. Her second husband, James Hart, came out as gay. This video was quite a whitewash.
It is so sad how all these adults acted as if breaking up families won't harm their children. Marriage is meant for life for the sake of the children brought into the world not necessarily for the adults involved. They should have worked things out for the sake of their children. Not jumped from bed to bed.

So who was the love of her life? You made it about as clear as mud!
I was wondering the same thing. Also, it seems like she had a lot of relationships “in the early seventies” when she was also married toJames Taylor? 🤔
Answer: "James"
Love how the video and headline don't match. Seriously?
She seemed to have many
i think it was rodney dangerfield .
I believe we can have more than one love in our lives and our hearts.
Who wasn't with mick jagger and warren beatty.
LOL-RIIIIGHT!!! 😱🥹😆❗️❗️
Carly Simon told People magazine that the 1972 , Your so Vain is indeed about Warren Beatty, but only partially. More specifically, the second verse.
From what I've read, it's not clear if Carly was ever 'with' Mick.....................As for Warren, she realized he was a 'nothing'.......a 'player.'
McKenzie phillips was with Mick ?
Mother Teresa was the only celebrity from that time who wasn't with Mick or Warren and even then you have to discount the rumors.
Love the fun they had with Mockingbird! Adorable! ❤😊❤
Carly is still beautiful. ❤
Only because she's got money for treatments
I remember sitting in the elementary school gym in Oak Bluffs here on Martha's Vineyard back in 1970,and listening to them do a concert for the benefit of I think our hospital here.Both of them were so nice and friendly over the years
lucky you!
Cool, you were there, Wow.
@@sgrowe56 yup! they knew each other much earlier-as kids here in the Vineyard

Taylor was a insecure dick, who was threatened by Carly's talent and fame. She's MUCH BIGGER than him in all ways.
She sure can sing .
And write
Love. Both. Of. Them❤❤
I've always thought Carly was the premier female singer of the last 30 or more years. Powerful vocals coupled with meaningful lyrics are impressive.😊
I have always loved and respected both Carly and James!!
A great talent, both of them, especially together.
So glad that Carly and Stevie, two of rhe best from back then, are lasting much better than I.
I just love Carly and James together and always will ! So want them to be friends, they have 2 awesome kids they created from all their own creativity! ❤

NO.....Carly Elisabeth Simon born June 25, 1943 according to several reliable sources.
Wrong, born June 25, 1943 = 81.

@@FactsVerse Nobody Does it Better is my favorite and then Haven't Got Time For the Pain would be 2nd. Of course You're So Vain is her biggest hit.

James Taylor was the one.

James was definitely
Wow she really got around.
Musical Geniuses tend to have destructive realationships but I suppose thats what defined their music and Great songs.

It's remarkable how these so called, "Power couples" never seem to have enough power to keep their relationships from falling apart.
The song It Happens Every Day, was on her 1983 album. Hello Big Man, not her 1973 album Hotcakes.
JT has and always will be the love of her life. The song "so vein" was written about Warren Beatty, IMO
Thanks for letting us know, I always knew the truth about this story, It was farmer Joe from down the road.

So who was the love of her life
I think they were all the love of her life! She sure got around didn’t she?!
James taylot
Taylor.
Me 😄😘
JT of course she still loves him he was a junkie so she strayed a lot he probably did too
Adore them both ..❤lucky enough to meet JT🎉😍
So who was the Love of her Life? I don’t recall it ever being mentioned…. Uggggg; frustrating 🤦🏼♀️
It was James Taylor. Hands down.
Carly said it!! James was the love of my life.
to see them together when they were so young and just married as I did there is no doubt who her 1st love was
I never really cared for her vocals that much although some of the lyrics are intriguing. I feel most of her branding was based upon her look of the day.
Taylor most likely was bi-polar. He turned to drugs to self medicate. Love them both!
Sad but true! What other types of video would you like to see?
I don't think that James was civil to Carly; I don't think they talked at all after the divorce.

Carly is 80? No wonder I'm also old.
I liked Warren Beatty in "McCabe & Mrs. Miller".
He was with Julie Christie then
Simon wrote her famous song, “You’re so Vain” about her romance with - well, it was NOT Taylor!
Never knew Carly and Cat Stevens dated. Hmmm shocked.
She wrote " Anticipation " about him.

J.T. was a heroine addict during his time with Carly.
It is so sad how all these adults acted as if breaking up families won't harm their children.
Marriage is meant for life for the sake of the children brought into the world not necessarily for the adults involved.
They should have worked things out for the sake of their children.
