Well, I'm watching this in May 2024. I'm in my 60s and I have been an intrigued follower of Carly Simon and her music ever since I can remember. Even before seeing this video, and as of today, I still have several of her songs on my USB playlist in my car. As was said, Carly sings for everyone - we have gone through what she sings about. I won't ever stop listening to her music - even today, her music brings a calm and a smile to my world. Greetings from New Zealand.
It's 2024 she remains an outstanding songwriter and vocalist. I never saw her I wish I did miss her. Down to earth great human being. Great mom that's is a legend. ❤❤❤
I can't imagine my high school years without her music. It was the soundtrack of my teenage years. Especially at that time when there was not many female singers who wrote and sang their own music. I adored her....wished I looked like her...( I don't)...and her albums played on my little stereo constantly. My daughter grew up with me listening to Carly all the time....my daughter especially liking the "Itsy Bitsy spider" !!! . what a national treasure she is.... and I hope she does get invited into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. God knows she deserves it.
This video was made about Carly through 1995 (nearly 30 years ago), and is still so fascinating because Carly continues to captivate us with her talent, gentleness, and beautiful spirit. In person, one-on-one, she is so genuine and doesn't put on a fake public persona. She truly is an American treasure.
Carly was before my time but I heard one of her songs and it just stopped me in my tracks. Now I'm a bit obsessed and just learning as much as I can about her. It's incredibly rewarding so far. I'm glad to live in an age where we can just look up whatever we want/need to. So thankful for her art.
Her songs hit you like a ton of bricks. They're real, sincere, and the product of someone who has dealt with the same pain we all have had. I'm 66 and I honestly go to pieces when I hear them again. Life is really about a lot of pain, a lot of forgiveness and a few moments of indescribable joy. Carly, you speak to all three.
I have loved her since I 1st heard You're So Vain & ran out to get that album all because I heard Mick Jagger singing, and I was crazy for Mick Jagger. But that lead to buying every album Carly Simon has ever made. I'm also 66, & these songs bring back such awesome memories of that time way back. But I loved her words, she wrote about sitting home alone, wondering where James Taylor was. It just cut right down to every emotion. Sometimes I felt she was writing for me, exactly about what I was going through. And Carly wrote most her songs, played every instrument, she was so unique in that respect. She's amazing, I would sew my own clothes and copy her outfits. And, I was always told that, I looked like Carly Simon. But more, I look like Steven Tyler
@@janemmb James Taylor and Billy Joel were the Rock Bottom crawlers of the 1970s ...no talent, no looks grotesque to look at , grotesque to hear.... they were byproducts of a rigged music industry
Carly’s singing voice brings comfort to me, I’m talking for a period of 45 years till this very day. Her smile is amazing and she is so pretty. She’s also very intelligent.
+ladygagagal123 I totally agree with you! She's amazing & she's is an great example of true love for life, her children & music! I admire also her strength!
I worked for photographer Lynn Goldmsith around the time when this show was produced. Carly was one of the nicest, most sincere, and coolest, uber stars I've ever met. What a great artist, human being, and cool rock chick forever! Great recent autiobio too.
I adore Carly Simon. From her first hit, I was hooked. I was 21. Love the music and the words seem personal and sincere. One of my favourite artists. Truly original and so talented.
I went to Riverdale Country School from 1958 to 1961 with Carly. She was in the girls school but we both sang in the Riverdale Country School small Chorus. This was directed by Russel Ames, a talented Harvard trained music director who also organized musicals at the school. We sang classical music like The Fouree Requiem or others classical music for the Riverdale community. I never knew that she stuttered. I considered her a classy lady. We even went over to her home and played pool after the Friday night small chorus rehearsals. She had a very strong alto voice and we even did duets together. I have always admired her and followed her career.
This Lifetime Portrait is the best expose on her life I've seen. 1974 I was 14, and she was the 2nd female artist to have a strong influence on me as a writer and singer. The 1st was Carole King in 1970 with "Tapestry". Theses ladies were and are wordsmiths of the finest quality. My 'discovery' of Joni Mitchell at age 18 in 1978 began a lifetime of inspiration and admiration as well. Thank you for being human, and vunerable and creative Carly.
I could have written that. Except I am male and in addition to a deep love of her, Carol and Joni's music, anytime I see Carly my "heart" goes pity pat😂..her voice her spirit and her sexiness is such an incredible mix. Stevie Nick's may be pretty much in the same league. I've read all of her books, some more than once. When I start watching her videos or listening to her music, it is hard to stop! May she be with us for many more years❤❤❤
what an amazing person. so gifted carly the good lord has kissed your throat and you have created wonderful music for the world to enjoy. so thank you so much. I listened to your beautiful voice growing up and I still do.
There are rare voices that brings happiness & memories as we continue to grow older. Coming Around Again because nothing stays the same but my love for your songs Carly & Nobody Does It Better…my favorite other song. Thanks for sharing your talents…big smile!
Not many ever got the right melodies and lyrics across quite like Carly. She's been one of my close inspirations. I just watched her blogs and luv them. :D
LOVE your music and yes I have anxiety problems, thanks for sharing your trials & tribulations with us. Grew up loving your songs here in Ga. After a bad day at work I can click on to any of your songs and fade away. Thanks Paul & Susan North Georgia
This was so great! I have been a fan for years. Love her voice and her music/lyrics. Spent a lot of years singing into the family candle sticks with her songs.

Hi, Carly! I don't know if you will read this but I have to say that I love you. I'm from Brazil and I've been listening to your songs since childhood. Your voice is such an amazing God gift. And the way you right the songs is so unique. You're timeless! You're very special for me!
I was 15 years old in 1971 when I first heard Carly. She rocked and ruled! Of course there is a lot of 'nostalgia' involved. But, if Carly Simon was a new 'talent' in 2014... She would again rule the day.
She is one of the two people I would pay to see. I love all her tunes and I love her. She is the real deal and her songs play in my head like a friend who has come to greet me. I love the hits and all the others that didn't get to be hits, but should have. I love you Carly your music has carried me through so many good and bad times and I thank you for that. I have one disc in my car and it's yours!
I'm a man but even I recognize the value and significance of Carly Simon's music, and I am glad to see all the gratitude and appreciation for her music. I like many of her tracks, but my favorite is "The Stuff that Dreams Are Made of". The meaning and message of this song can really change someone's life in an instant moment. It opens up a channel to what matters and suddenly you can be in heaven on earth. That's amazing and wonderful.
There is a young Aussie pop singer, Megan Washington who turned to music to cope with a severe stutter. She told her story at a TED talk in Sydney about it.
Carly Simon "the legendary singer /songwriter extraordinaire ". Thanks for sharing the personal memoirs as it shows the incredible beauty and sensitivity of one of my idols. So articulate and accomplished at a young age.Thoughtful and full of novelty for us to admire. A "godmother" to Moses and so much more.I really get the meaning of" Taymon". Sweet melodies of love".Thank you for this inspiration.I believe she could be my soul sister!Charisma plus ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Such an inspirational story. An inspirational magical woman and entertainer. Carly helped raise me and still does. Thank you for sharing all your talents and thoughts and love❣🥰💋
Beyond awesome I too have the panic attacks Carly has suffered with most of her life, but we have something in common we hide it like the actors we are, lots of love to you Carly thanks for showing me the demons dont always win :)
Listening to Carly Simon takes me into a world that I will never be a part of. I could picture almost everything she sang about; and when I was writing, her songs inspired me like no other. Still does!
It all came to a head in October of 1981, when Simon had embarked on a tour in support of her 1980 full-length, Come Upstairs, and breakout single, "Jesse," which peaked at #11 on the US Hot 100. While onstage for the first of two shows in Pittsburgh, the singer was gripped by an overwhelming anxiety attack.
Carly Simon standing at the gate on the cover of her album “Anticipation” She was obviously positioned with a good deal of light behind her sheer outfit. That album cover got certain juices flowing for my fourteen years of age at that time. Of course that incredible Powerful sensual voice, yeah she had the whole package. Meeting her in later years was quite an experience.
Thank you, Carly! I love your work! You have been an incredible inspiration for my own writings. I also take comfort from your battles with stage fright that help me overcome my own. Keep smiling! It's infectious! ;)
Her songs are simply fantastic and she was working with the best musicians and Richard Perry who produced some watershed records of this era. I once made a guitar for her out of Honduran Mahogany, and she is as nice and normal as anyone.
Listen to her talk, listen to her lyrics, listen to her music, or just watch her, and it quickly becomes apparent that Carly is a very special, extraordinary human being, and not just in music. Even if you’ve never seen or heard of her, she’s one of those people that you instantly think to yourself, “Wow, who is THAT, who was THAT?!” She’s very, very special, and has brought so much joy, to so many people, in so many different ways. And she’s probably not even aware of it. I hope she’s truly happy. She deserves it.
Beautiful exciting talented Carly a pleasure for the ears and eyes I feel I am a woman of extrovert and introvert also ,I have a feeling a lot of Artists are it can feel confusing but you are one who felt the fear and did it anyway ..so glad you did ..Thank you x
Carly - You are truly wonderful, my two favourite songs of yours are Coming Around Again and Nobody Does It Better. Your music theme song for the film Heart Burn just totally sets it up right from the start. XXX
Definitely not a saint. What Carly wants, Carly makes sure she gets, no matter who gets hurt in the process. I've loved her music for decades, and felt sorry for her re: JT. But not after weighing up all I've learned over the years... She's a very cagey game player, and an arch-manipulator. A survivor of a horrendous childhood which left her chronically love-starved and self-absorbed, but also quite ruthless. This memoir is full of contradictions and significant gaps...
Thanks for this, Carly. You are, and will always be, my favorite vocalist. Will you do a performance in Minneapolis at the very cozy, and local legend, Guthrie Theatre..... (or any major venue, for that matter) PLEASE!!!
As a young gay teenager in the early 1970s, not being to be myself and had to hide, Carly and Carole King got me through those tough times. And , to this day, now that I am 64, the music takes me back and gives me much joy and gratitude. Love you Carly.

Carly. If you read this, know that your voice is unique and exquisite. And it’s obvious you are a lovely open soul. Keep making music 😘

@@charlenealexander6663 ooooh. That's awesome!!🥰
I can feel her vulnerability in her songs. Carly writes from the heart.
I named my first born daughter after Carly. Her music warms my heart ❤️
What an incredible woman. I love Carly’s music. James didn’t deserve Carly. She was miles ahead of him.
Exatamente,não merecia mesmo.Penso desse jeito!!
That's the absolute truth!
He truly broke her heart. Agreed. He says he “was just too young to be married”.
James blew it.
Both amazing 🤩 both got so much to give, and they both did, give. NOT for comparison 😩
@@janemmb James Taylor and Billy Joel were the Rock Bottom crawlers of the 1970s ...no talent, no looks grotesque to look at , grotesque to hear.... they were byproducts of a rigged music industry
Carly’s singing voice brings comfort to me,
I’m talking for a period of 45 years till this very day.
Her smile is amazing and she is so pretty.
She’s also very intelligent.
One of my favourite vocalists/song writers of ALL time. Thank you for sharing your extraordinary talent and spirit with us for over 40 years!!
I have loved this woman for a long, long time. She sings what I don't have the words to say.
+ladygagagal123 I totally agree with you! She's amazing & she's is an great example of true love for life, her children & music! I admire also her strength!
Leave her alone then.Some things in life are better left unspoken.
We All loved her and her music.Thats the way the greatest generation came into fruition.
No artist can play with my emotions like Carly.
I worked for photographer Lynn Goldmsith around the time when this show was produced. Carly was one of the nicest, most sincere, and coolest, uber stars I've ever met. What a great artist, human being, and cool rock chick forever! Great recent autiobio too.
..oh how fortunate you are....and look at BABY Carly...joy..
Cool. Thanks for sharing your experience. I had suspected that was the case.
A true rare icon chick...
Quit your damn lying.
Sad,sad Joshua!
I have Carly Simon greatest hits and she's my favorite singer of all time
Her songs take you back to where you were when your heard her music......right back to all those feelings. Boy those were the days 💖
I don't think we had any idea then. An awesome time to be young and alive.
Love her voice, one of the greatest ever!
I adore Carly Simon. From her first hit, I was hooked. I was 21. Love the music and the words seem personal and sincere. One of my favourite artists. Truly original and so talented.

A most singularly awesome voice.
I was 18 in the 70’s and always loved her music to current day 2021
I've always loved Carly Simon & when I was younger knew most of her songs by heart. I always liked You're So Vain!!!!
Nobody Does It Better! One of my favorite James Bond songs and the lyrics ring true.
I LOVE to hear this woman sing! She's written--and sang--some of the best songs of the seventies; they really get you where you live.
You are a beautiful, talented woman with a history of great music behind you!
I have loved you my entire life Carly . Your infectious smile and beauty stunned me as I sang your fabulous songs . Many more years to you my dear .

Always loved her music but never knew about her life. Fascinating!❤
Her songs resonate with me. Have loved her voice and music since I was in college in the 70’s. She’s a gem.

“Touched by the Sun” is, to me, one of the most powerful emotional songs I have ever experienced.

Thank you for your inner love! I grew up to your songs, which touched my heart & mind! Love you lots! From Flagstaff, AZ.
Hi, Carly! I don't know if you will read this but I have to say that I love you. I'm from Brazil and I've been listening to your songs since childhood. Your voice is such an amazing God gift. And the way you right the songs is so unique. You're timeless! You're very special for me!
Write the songs - not right the songs
I’m with you on that...👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Agree!!!❤❤❤❤
Sou aqui do Brasil e amo ❤ Carly Simon tb.Não me canso de assistir o concerto de 1987.Lindo demais e Carly deslumbrante.
She doesn't read these comments. Get a grip.
I was 15 years old in 1971 when I first heard Carly. She rocked and ruled! Of course there is a lot of 'nostalgia' involved. But, if Carly Simon was a new 'talent' in 2014... She would again rule the day.
One of the greatest in so many ways. ✌️💕
Enjoyed this video very much. I just love Carly..........so many of her songs speak to me.

Just love Carly, fantastic artist.
She definitely put out some beautiful and iconic music
I'm a man but even I recognize the value and significance of Carly Simon's music, and I am glad to see all the gratitude and appreciation for her music. I like many of her tracks, but my favorite is "The Stuff that Dreams Are Made of". The meaning and message of this song can really change someone's life in an instant moment. It opens up a channel to what matters and suddenly you can be in heaven on earth. That's amazing and wonderful.
Love this song too
"Waterfall" is such a great song, too...so many.....thankyou Carly.......my personal favourite? "You Belong to Me."
Both awesome songs! ❤️
Always will Love ❤️ Carly Simmon. Her music 🎶 will always live on. ..!!
I have watched this many times. Carly, you are wonderful!
There is just something magical about Carly's voice and aura. Sprinkled with stardust. An American jewel. Such a charmer!
There is a young Aussie pop singer, Megan Washington who turned to music to cope with a severe stutter. She told her story at a TED talk in Sydney about it.

Panic attacks or guilt trips?
@@aday1637 My dad wrote that 7 years ago, he died 2 years ago you fucking moron
Listening to Carly Simon takes me into a world that I will never be a part of. I could picture almost everything she sang about; and when I was writing, her songs inspired me like no other. Still does!
My heart hurts for her as she loves James so much and he wasn’t capable of loving her amidst his addictions.
One of the greatest female singers in modern era
Fantastic!! Thank you so much!
Loved her music then,, now,, and always will... 🙏 ❤
Thank you so much for this post. It is a portrait that is, simply, wonderful xo
This beautiful soul of a women has enriched every corner of my life, thank you Carly.

the 70s Trio Joni Mitchell Carol King and Carley Simon all of them make me happy when there songs come on.

And, of course, Ms.Judy Collins!
@@stephenstills2 Judy Collins makes a few appearances in Weller’s book too (no, I’m not her paid publicist!).
Her and Joni Mitchell are my girls!
She was and is awesome, what a great talent and beautiful woman.

I have always loved female artist. Carly was one of my first. Her music was warm n personal for me, if only in fantasy personal way.
Her songs are simply fantastic and she was working with the best musicians and Richard Perry who produced some watershed records of this era. I once made a guitar for her out of Honduran Mahogany, and she is as nice and normal as anyone.
Carly ‘s songs enter ones heart all the while ur dancing along w/ her. Carly is so fine!
You have always been an inspiration as a woman, artist! Your songs literally touch my heart Carly, a Renaissance Woman for sure!! Love you.
Love this woman and her huge talent.
Listen to her talk, listen to her lyrics, listen to her music, or just watch her, and it quickly becomes apparent that Carly is a very special, extraordinary human being, and not just in music.

Yup!
Oh yes, yes.🙅♀️💗💥
What a beautiful wonderful story of one of the most gorgeous, smart, talented woman I deeply admire! Her songs go right to my heart ❤️
We love you Carly and your Music. ❤

Thanks for this, Carly. You are, and will always be, my favorite vocalist. Will you do a performance in Minneapolis at the very cozy, and local legend, Guthrie Theatre..... (or any major venue, for that matter) PLEASE!!!
As a young gay teenager in the early 1970s, not being to be myself and had to hide, Carly and Carole King got me through those tough times. And , to this day, now that I am 64, the music takes me back and gives me much joy and gratitude. Love you Carly.
