For 40 years she kept a secret about who she was singing about in this song. Well it was about actor Warren Beaty. Some though it was Mick Jagger. Such a great song from a talented lady
Such a wonderful song to start Sunday morning. Been singing it all morning. So glad someone opened up the Carly Simon door. She really is a timeless classic.
I never knew Mick Jagger did backing vocals on the studio version of this song, until somebody told me. When I specifically listen for his voice, it seems so obvious that it's him. Good live version here.
Me too! I love it when you are singing along and realize you know every last word to song! So many years later, and a handful of songs still stick all the way through. This song was one of those songs😜
@@knightngail1 Actually, she did several years ago, for a charity donation. It's about David Geffen, the head of Geffen Records. She was mad he promoted Joni Mitchell instead of her.
This whole concert is beautiful! Carole King and Carly Simon are the two earliest female singer-songwriters of my youth! They were breaking new ground within the industry!
Short list of Carly Simon to consider - That's The Way It Should Be, Nobody Does It Better, Haven't Got Time For The Pain, You Belong To Me, The Right Thing To Do, Legend In Your Own Time, Anticipation.
Sarah!!! SO glad you chose some Carly Simon!!!! She is so talented; singer, songwriter, TIMELESS music! ❤️ Teez, I hope you hear more of her! "You Belong To Me", "Coming Around Again", "Mockingbird" with her ex-husband, James Taylor...
New subscribers and came on board because of this reaction. THank You Reez for reacting to songbird Carly & thanks Sara for dropping this off - love Carly!!
There was speculation that this song was about Mick Jagger. He sings background on the studio version but Carly says the song is not about him. It's actually about Warren Beatty✌
She rocks..keep her on your channel. She is great! The wife of a close friend.. David Bowie's ex-wife Angie says that's her..Who knows? Warren Beatty says he's the second verse..Who knows? Only Carly..
This was a big hit around 1973. Song came on at a restaurant on a date. Girlfriend said song described me. Moral is that this song has broken up more relationships than any song ever written.
Carly Simon has confirmed that the second stanza is about Warren Beatty. She also has said they doesn’t mean the other stanzas are also about him, but she did not rule it out. At various times, she has said it was not Mick Jagger (or James Taylor, David Bowie, or David Cassidy).
Enjoying your assessments and open mind. One question. Why do all of your videos feature a pic of you with your mouth hanging open, looking like you just saw a ghost? Doesn't go with your chill, thoughtful personality and is a bit cheesy. Haha.
Teez, youre cool, butt you need better placement of your images. Your e small, Carly IS tiny. You need to have a full screen of you with image of the video about 25% of the screen. And move out of the kitchen. If your wanna get bigger, your gotta get this stuff fixed.
This song was played everywhere when it was released. It's a classic. We can still listen to it on the radio in the UK.
For 40 years she kept a secret about who she was singing about in this song. Well it was about actor Warren Beaty. Some though it was Mick Jagger. Such a great song from a talented lady
My dad will rock out anytime anywhere when this song comes on
EVEN HER DISMOUNT FROM THE PIANO WAS IMPECCABLE!!!!
Such a wonderful song to start Sunday morning. Been singing it all morning. So glad someone opened up the Carly Simon door. She really is a timeless classic.
❤️❤️❤️
The Lady is a legend.
the song, the setting, the singer, the lyrics: INCOMPARABLE!!!!!!

Oh wow this song I know every word, played it a thousand times I’m sure
😂 👍❤️👍 💕🇨🇦💕

@@RUSHChick
🌺💕🌸. 🥰🇨🇦🥰
Spoiler Alert: Warren Beatty definitely knows this song is about him.
Actually I thought it was about James Taylor
I thought it was Mick Jagger. 😂
She's never came right out and said who it was. 😆

@@KingOfNebbishes I've never heard that story. I'll have to look it up. Lol
I actually had the 45 when it came out. Also. She’s part of the Simon & Schuster publishing house. Her father co-founded it.
This whole concert is beautiful! Carole King and Carly Simon are the two earliest female singer-songwriters of my youth! They were breaking new ground within the industry!
OMG! I was totally thinking the same thing and was perusing through Carole King songs to put in a request. 😜
Such An Iconic Classic Song ! 🎵 😊💓
Love this song your face when your listening is brilliant
I've always loved this song.

Oh Mexico ! ...
@@RUSHChick you've got vacation on the brain, lol!
Totally, but looking at Portugal 😜
@@RUSHChick bom dia!
"I had some dreams they were Clouds in my Coffee" has to be one of the coolest lyrics in a song! Oh just found your channel and have subbed!
Nice! Stick with us! Teez will surprise you even more!
Great singer/songwriter of the 70's and on
Song was written about Actor Warren Beatty
I’ve always had a blast singing this song, lol! That venue looks awesome!
HI TEEZ. 💜CARLY SIMON this is a classic.. Love it! Good choice ♥
One of favorite songs! I heard this when I was a kid and as I got older I realized it was written about me 🤦🏻♀️😂🤣🙈
For many years it was fun speculating about who the subject of the song really was. That mystery added something, if you ask me.
I grew up listening up to this in the 80"s
Loved this then love this still
Mick Jagger does the backup vocals on the studio version, song is not about him though
Love her contralto voice. She was married to James Taylor; please check him out also.
Clouds ⛅ in my coffee ☕😍
❤️❤️❤️
One of my all time favorite songs!!!!👍
Two songs in a row bringing me back
Sarah!!! SO glad you chose some Carly Simon!!!! She is so talented; singer, songwriter, TIMELESS music! ❤️
Teez, I hope you hear more of her! "You Belong To Me", "Coming Around Again", "Mockingbird" with her ex-husband, James Taylor...
Pure classic all the way around! Hopefully, we’ll be knocking on James Taylor’s door very soon. ❤️❤️
@@RUSHChick Right? So much great music!
More please, CS singing Mockingbird!
YES!!!
The live version of Mockingbird is Wow !
This song is the OG diss track, way back in 1972.
Great reaction
Can’t do Carly without Carole King! Tapestry was an amazing!
👍 Love Carly Simon. Don't you, don't you, don't you.....?
😂😂😂🔥
Carly Simon is the reason I make sure there are no clouds in my coffee 😜

The original recording had Mick Jagger doing backup vocals. Epic.
She featured on one of my favourite Bond 007 tunes. Song about Dick Tracey 🎭
New sub here!! I found you in watching Elvis videos!! Great reactions! Look forward to more!! ❤️Tennessee
Check out her song -Anticipation.
And her career was interrupted by crippling stage fright. Even with a voice like that confidence isn't automatic.
Wooooooow really?? She looks so confident here
@@TeezMcGee To this day ahe says she doesn't enjoy being on stage.
Knowing who she really wrote this song about may actually be the million dollar question😜
Yup!💙💙🙌🙌
There was speculation that this song was about Mick Jagger. He sings background on the studio version but Carly says the song is not about him. It's actually about Warren Beatty✌
Tell him Carly, 😃😃
She rocks..keep her on your channel. She is great! The wife of a close friend.. David Bowie's ex-wife Angie says that's her..Who knows? Warren Beatty says he's the second verse..Who knows?
Only Carly..
Excellent live version
Great song of hers 😍
No YT notifications!! Would've been here STAT had I known!! Sorry!! ;)
This was a big hit around 1973. Song came on at a restaurant on a date. Girlfriend said song described me.
Moral is that this song has broken up more relationships than any song ever written.
The great thing about the album version is that Mic Jagger is singing on it they used to be in some sort of relationship
I like how "Starfuckers, Inc." by Nine Inch Nails references this song (at least on the album version)
Hello from Cody Wyoming!! You are awesome keep it up🤠
🔥 Carly he probably does think the song is about him.
React to Carly Simon and James Taylor doing Mockingbird live.
💗
TWELVE!! ;) ;)
About Warren Beatty
Any fool can rhyme cat with hat in a song. Try figuring out a way to rhyme apricot with Gavotte.
The gossip at the time she wrote this bout Mick Jagger. ..
You don't want to piss off a songwriter! LOL
The regular song has more bite
This is tad more mellow
Did u know that nobody knows who she wrote this about? But it was an ex. Mick ?

NEIN!
I actually prefer the cover by Chocolate Starfish

😂😂😂 I agree
You're a good sport.
Gee, looks like Carly Simon's popular. Who woulda thunk it???
You're such a wise azz!!! Bahahaha!!! Thanks for the heads up on Teez's uploads!!
@@michaelgilbert197 ha ha! I was SO into folk as a kid and teen. Peace and love!
Carly had a string of hits in the 1970's and this one was a monumental smash on the radio.
@@Swampzoid I was being facetious. ;)
