She was 27 when she performed in that concert…..It’s was real, it was visceral, it was pure, no pretense, authentic!! I got chills watching this….. one spot, no choreographed dance troops, no sequences, real instruments, no acrobatics and revolving stages and platforms, no auto tune (not needed), and yet the audience was transfixed, completely involved in the performance…..
Never knew she is my mom’s age. I was a bit surprised seeing Carly Simon now how old she has gotten old but now knowing she is my mom’s age, both have aged gracefully.
A few years after this song came out, my parents divorced. I only understood the song years later & the unhappiness of my parents. I had an emotionally rough childhood after. I made it through God’s grace. Many songs from the 1970s remind me of what I went through and how resilient I am because of the experience. I’m good now. Happy, healthy, and enjoying life!
Agree with you. No stupid fireworks., dancers, smoke and mirrors ,etc. Just beautiful singing. Don't understand how people can get into the crap today?? So much of it sounds the same.
you are saying that like it doesn't exist any more. That is silly. And ALL music deserves a space. it is all someones expression. Fuc& the fans, like Neil Young would say.
I love everything about this video. Carly Simon’s voice, the lyrics, her performance, her red outfit, her hair glowing in the light, the haunting presents of sadness, and even seeing Art Garfunkel chatting with George Harrison back stage. I love it all!! ❤
Take me back to a time of Carly Simon , Linda Ronstadt, Carol King, purest of voices and songs that came through with emotion. Man I miss the 70’s Best music ever.
This is becoming a forgotten era. The lit cigarette glowing in the dark. Reading the newspaper. Marriage was an expectation. It speaks for a generation.
Yeah, apparently, a song about the kind of social situation, the upper class life that Carly herself grew up in. The beautiful young debutante daughters who went to all the prestigious colleges mostly to look for young, potentially rich husbands coming out into Society, launched by their families. So many, like the girl in the song, dreaded it, but that was the way it was, so she resigned herself to it.
I’ve loved her and her music since she started. Got to meet her at an album signing in Atlanta. She was so sweet and kind. She had been there for many hours and very tired. My daughter and I were last in line but she treated us as if we were first. I was 35 at that time. Now I’m 80 and still love all the REAL talent from the 70’s. Carly is pure class. Still listening in 2022. Anyone else?
@@gailhendrix7267 yes, Gail, me too. I'm 66 and still love most all the 1970's music. Her songs were always so deep in thought and touched people's lives. I think a lot of us were more mature back then. For whatever reason we had to grow up fast.
My Wife and I got married 06-08-71 and are still together as of 04-14-2024. Yes we had our stormy mornings and cold bitter nights but she still makes me a cup of coffee before I rise and I get her the British Detective DVD's from the library she enjoys so much. Things that last require sacrifice, toil and firm commitment. So good to hear this song again as it really took us back to the start.
I was 15 months old when you got married, but grew up in this music. Congratulations on your many years of ups and downs and stick to it loving each other approach. I'm missing my husband and have been listening to Barry Manilows New England song about when we will meet again in the other side. Much love to you both 💗
Those long gone days of this music and it's authenticity will be missed forever. Thank the stars for vinyl and the impetus to record these real sessions.
Hey same here! I got so sick of "You're so Vain" which was played constantly for about a decade, that I lost track of how brilliant her composing and singing is. She's amazing in retrospect.
I've loved this song since I heard it...geez about as long ago as you....Then I probably had no true idea of it's meaning LOL but, It is one of my favorites of all time.
I remember when I was literally girl I used to sit quietly and listen to this song and think about the future. And cry! And now here I am 50+ years later and I'm still waiting for it to be the way I've always heard it should be. 💚💛💙
We all strive for our dreams but nobody has all of them come true. Gods got reasons for that we don't understand yet. Just continue being your best you. :)
+Melanie Daniels That's usually very true. But I am fortunate to have a granddaughter with an old soul. She has a tattoo written across her, below her neck that reads, "This To Shall Pass". She's well aware the beauty she possesses today will not last. So every day is precious to her. It has to be because she's a model.
+bjcotton09 Don't tell her she misspelled "too." If she ever finds out, she could always have her tattoo artist add a "t" to the end of "to." "This Tot Shall Pass." It would be super-meta when eating tater tots. Or when pregnant.
Carly Simon is one of the most talented human beings who ever lived. She just steps in and turns a good song into a legendary song with her talented voice and timing. It's hard to believe that during the 70s people could enjoy Carly /Carole King/Linda Ronstadt/Stevie Nicks/Karen Carpenter/Joan Biaz/Emmy Lou Harris/Olivia Newton-John/Joni Mitchell / Diana Ross/ Judy Collins and many more. Year after year. Amazing talent. By the way, who do we have today??? I tend to forget.
They don’t write songs like these anymore, ones that speak to the heart, soul, and life; we need more Carly, the late Karen Carpenter, and Carol King, ballards written so beautiful. Always loved Carly Simon music.....
yes sick of these 2 ladies.....they have technical help in all they do......and they have zero charisma.....add arianne grande...madonna and all those others
49 years ago, sitting in my car, heading toward a divorce, I burst out crying when I heard "That's the Way I've Always Heard It Should Be." I've loved Carly's songs ever since
It really is a great song that still holds up all these years later, too many UA-cam commenters have an idea that life in 60s/70s/80s was something close to perfect, not at all.
I always thought she were a very attractive women. I don’t see comments about how a natural beauty she really is. I read that Carly wanted to try acting, and one of her husbands said to her she wasn’t pretty enough... instead of supporting her he tried to hold her back. She could have been anything she wanted with her beauty and talent. Js 🤷♂️
I'm glad somebody mentioned Carole King. This is coming from a classic rock fan who's favourite bands are Pink Floyd King Crimson Moody Blues and Uriah Heep
Yes! ,Been loving me some Carly for years her haunting alto, her songwriting ability, this honor (sic), is way over due, congrats Carly, you are truly a modern Master, with great respect-a fan
I was a young boy in the ‘70’s when this song came out, I wanted to marry Carly Simon and live happily ever after with her, she singing beautifully as we traversed through life…sometimes dreams will always stay forever dreams…so glad I saw this video tonight, it brought me back to happier times in my life
This song hits me where I live every time I listen to it. I was 15 when this beautiful song was released and I was introduced to the angelic tones of Carly Simon. Her stunning beauty, her youth, her passion epitomize a time that I feel blessed to have lived through and continue to hold with heartfelt fondness. Underneath the flawless performance is what the song has to say about life - not just married life. The lump in my throat is genuine. The true mastery of this song and performance still resonates more than 50 years later. Thank you so much, Carly…
We are lucky to be able too say this is the music of our youth, you rarely see talent like this today. Stay safe, healthy and back by popular demand ✌️
At the time, leaving the 8th grade and going into high school the next month after this was recorded in August, 1971, I had no idea how this song was a warning to me...wow, had I listened closely to these words...
@Ali The '60s yes... the early '80s sure but the later '80s/early '90s ehhh... there were moments/people but largely uhmmm... I don't know how to finish that. Don't get me wrong I liked the music but late '50s to early '80s then skip to the late '90s/early aughts had the songs that stay with me. Goes without saying I'm sure but this is just my opinion.
The good looks, the grooved-out fashion, the soft sounds w/ more than some exceptions, the lyrics that made so much sense, pure originality without hi-tech.......and the list goes on and on.
Oh Carly....We love your song...We heard it and we got married it anyway and named our daughter Carly...35 years later...still married...still in Love...That's The Way I Heard It Should BE...We went after Love not perfection...Now it's 2020...We know this...we can still try to love each other and others in spite of the virus. Love Never Fails.
She was always my fantasy woman. Shame she made bad choices foe husbands, one a heroin addict and number two came out of the closet after ten years of marriage.
@Barry White , You are absolutely correct! Carly Simon and Joni Mitchell were my two favorite "female" singer/songwriters. They are Luciferian-Baphomet/Reptilian entities. It's very evil, very deceptive and very sad!
You are so right! I remember watching this when I was ten years old on TV . This just mesmerized me then and still today. Was that Simon and Garfunkel before her performance?
Her dad, the Simon in "Simon and Shuster," mustt have had mixed feelings about Carly and this song. Can you imagine the captain's of industry asking him how did your daughter turn out? "Well, she's a millionaire rock star who writes her own songs. She just married James Taylor, and I'm gonna be a grandfather. So I'd say she turned out pretty good."
@@emilymalden3310 wow...Too bad, that must have been crushing. Him not knowing what an icon his daughter turned out to be. Must have been all that hard work put him in an early grave. Still, it woulda been a kick, them discussing this song "honey, your mother isn't gonna like it, her sitting there reading her magazine." Carly S: " Sorry pop, I call em like I see them."
Melodically this is a beautiful tune, but don't forget that's it's also a song about how marriage sucks, which mindset has contributed to the breakdown of society that we're currently experiencing today.
I remember going to a James Taylor concert when I was in High School. My girlfriend and I were sitting right in front of the sound system. But little did we know that sitting behind us was Carly Simon. We just stared at this beautiful woman, with big hair and a hat. It wasn’t until James Taylor introduced her as his wife that we realized who she was and that we were sitting next to a rising star. That really made our evening being that close to her. She had the greatest smile! The music in the 70’ s were the best! Nothing today compares to the 70’s.
One of the most unique voices there will ever be, "NO ONE" sounds like Carly, and Carly like no other, I still Love her, that has never changed. Thank-You Carly for the love, and the memories.
@Robert Ramsey yeh, our self-righteous, self-aggrandizing, narcissist, with schizophrenic tendencies, potentate, believes himself to be a demigod, and his own party believes, he walks on water, and take pride in all his rhetoric, just remember: "Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall."
@@hawkeye1836 why do you have to bring Trump into this discussion? I think people like you are a big reason why our country is in the state it in today. Why must conflate things by injecting your bullshit into the discussion on any topic. You're a lot like Trump, Take a look in the mirror and listen to the way you act and sound.
@@hawkeye1836 only a true narcissisti would try and hi jack people's memories of a awesome musical time with their own vitriol that has nothing to do with this video...
This song ...so much truth...hate themselves for what they are. I wasn't what was expected I guess. Coming up the backstair trying tip toe...not be noticed. Expected to marry. My mother always said sweet dreams. I love you for reaching out to a kid in 1970s. I can still listen and get it at 70. Thank you
@@kw6382. Yes, thank you for the correction. This song is the perfect explanation to people who complain about Boomer parents. Listen to what it is saying.
Such a devastating yet wonderful song. Carly Simon is a great talent. “ Their children hate them for the things they’re not; they hate themselves for what they are.” Wow.
Thank You; was Familiar looking, but, i couldn't place the face talking to Art, and it was driving me nuts. Yes. George. Thanks. Would that have been a show to be at, or what? Wow, what a time.
I was 13 when this song came out. It has such deep meaning, and Carly co-wrote it. Everybody asks her about "You're So Vain". I'd ask her about this song. What was the inspiration to write it? This song still sends chills through me, and is so haunting, and so true.
I was reading the lyrics and the page quoted Carly as saying this about the song: About the song, Carly was quoted years later as saying: When I first wrote it, I thought it was an unusual thing for people to break up and now all my friends are divorced.
A wonderful of example of "let the song speak for itself" - Performed so simply, no frills or ostentation, no ego or star trip evident, pitch perfect singing, she "allows" the song to just be there. That's greatness right there. Brava Carley Simon.
Spoken like a pro! Touches the far reaches of our soul. She understands pain and respects it. The love of music allows her to reach out to trillions of us. Gentle and bold Carly!
She is the real deal. Love her. The reason music from my generation was so genuine is there weren't any rules. Music was evolving and there was room for genius writing and performing like this song has. I was in high school and I remember wondering if our music could possibly be as incredible as it seemed. In retrospect, it was. Artists like this created magic for us, and I am eternally grateful for all their talent and hard work.
+sunlitweb They touched our thoughts and feelings by weaving their musical creations into the fabric of our lives; ensuring that we'd carry our experiences as we aged, while their voices and melodies became the back drop, the soundtrack if you will. You're right, our music more than stood the test of time.
+sunlitweb Being a very young "60" now....Carly/Taylor and the majority of the 'soft-rock' registrar was not my hip.....mind you...lOl I was (am-ll) quite the hipster....BUT...in my broad knowledge of contemporary music...these songwriters stood TALL. Carly Simon has always owned a SPOT in my personal vinyl bin...JT///Nope...Still, here in 2015...this song never fails to bring tears to my eyes for so many reasons I quiver inside in an attempt to categorize them...oh...yeah, I'm a 100% oversexed hetro living with a gorgeous easter european (bulgarian) woman 18 yrs my junior.....who , with a massive bunch of letters (degrees) after her name still finds my catagoration of music dificult to annex.......so goes life: whatever's left at this point..."WHO-you're- I am? so VAIN!"
As a senior member, class of 1946 Baby Boomer, we................all.... had memories of all the best of times, of music, of life in general. It will never be again, no matter how good things become. It was a time of unprecedented optimism, of joy and ...of just plain fun. I am so grateful for being there. I don't know what I did to be so blessed, but, thank you, God, for the privilege of being there. Carly was one of us, such a talented girl.
I remember first hearing this song. Even on AM car radio, it gave me CHILLS. The intensity, the clarity, the lyrics. Found out who, & bought album. Wow. NOBODY else could sing this song. And nobody has.
She commands full attention and gets it - watch the audiences everywhere- they are totally fixated on every melodic word Carly sings as if it's her first!
@kevin w I'm so sorry you had to go through that & live with a toxic crazy person. The kids will grow up & want to know your truth & you'll tell them & they'll adore you! I'd wish her something awful but I believe in karma so I wish her nothing but the ability to be a good mother if nothing else. Btw, I stayed with my ex so long thinking you're suppose to!?! I'm glad there were no children involved but I waisted way too much of mine. It is what it is...I hope today with little exception you're happy & have a life full of promise, joy & laughter today & everyday 😊😌🤣
Same. She was my mom's favorite, thus the reason I was named Carly (Megan is my middle name)....my mom passed when I was 8 & I cling to Carly to help remember the time we had together 💓
I was lucky that I went to high school in the mid-70s; there was so much good popular music on the radio during those years. Simon, Carole King, James Taylor, Cat Stevens, Gordon Lightfoot, Janis Ian, Phoebe Snow, the list just goes on and on. And all so distinctive --- nobody else sounds like Carly Simon, Stevens, any of the others. Nobody like 'em today.
And the best part back then was, you had no diversions when you went to see a concert. No friggin' I-phones or selfies, just pure enjoyment of the act. Then afterwards, we'd go to a house party, and anyone who went was abuzz with their experience. And we'd play the artist on the turntable (yes, a turntable-and we'd hold the cover and comment on the picture or design of the cover) over and over. Good times. RIP Johnny Boy (best party's)
I agree! 1973 grad.... I still listen to all of them... I went to a class at the YMCA on Monday, the music, if you can call it that, was all electronically generated. I was wishing for wireless earphones.@@awomanwonderful
Carly Simon. When I was a kid, I thought she was the most beautiful, sexy, amazing singer ever. I am now 68 years old, and I still think that. Love you, Carly, and may God bless you and your loved ones. 2024.
Yeah E.S....But if we all did that and relived our good ole days over again, it just wouldn't be as beautifully remembered and powerful as the very fist run. We just need to keep our good ole days alive...
Mama Jacqueroo i was 13. This is the first top 40 song I can remember that made me get choked up. Until then, I thought pop was only dancable and fun. I think the word to describe this song is poignant. At 13, I was torn up inside by this.
This song is a haunting reminder of how things were when I was a kid growing up...... I can listen to this a million times and i still shed a tear...... every damn time......
She breezed in and dropped this great performance - all while fighting crippling stage fright. And singing such a quiet, intimate song, to a huge crowd, is quite the task! I read a book on Carly, Joni, and Carole. In the end, Carly appeared to be the most normal of the bunch, by far!
Some of today's music is good also. Don't get stuck in the past? I think we sometimes get a little nostalgic from memories from when the hormones raged during high school and college.
1955 here, so much has been forgotten. . . But my youngest (19) changes everything. She took my wife, who is 62 yrs old, to Ed Sheeran. Music will never die.
My God, she is the most beautiful, talented woman, that has ever sat at a piano, this song takes me right back.... Mid 70s. Life was much, much simpler.... Just sayin.
Eileen Joyce. And she’s just one example of a more “talented” piano player. Carly is prodigiously talented. But what Eileen Joyce was doing was something totally different, way more complex, etc... still, I’m pretty sure we can say, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that just citing this one example disproves your “hype”. I love Carly, and I know she was stunningly gorgeous. But she’s just one of many.
velocità sadly the 70's will never be repeated. I was lucky to be youth during those times. I sit back on quiet days now kids griwn and I reflect with smile and tears on my face rendering!!!
I never married either. Engaged three times but in the end, I didn’t see myself settled in. I enjoyed my freedom too much and our life’s goal ended up being way too different. I see all my friends both males and females ending up miserable and confiding in me saying I made the best decision not to get married.
She was 27 when she performed in that concert…..It’s was real, it was visceral, it was pure, no pretense, authentic!! I got chills watching this….. one spot, no choreographed dance troops, no sequences, real instruments, no acrobatics and revolving stages and platforms, no auto tune (not needed), and yet the audience was transfixed, completely involved in the performance…..
Never knew she is my mom’s age. I was a bit surprised seeing Carly Simon now how old she has gotten old but now knowing she is my mom’s age, both have aged gracefully.
Amen. Astonishing in the age of Ai
Absolutely
Well said.
This was when music was real. Today we are forced to listen to vulgar rap.
She didn't become a singer... she became an icon.
And she got married.
I'd forgotten how sexy Carly is.
Howd that work out....? She had quite a childhood.
You didn't leave a comment... you etched your statement in stone for all of eternity. Three cheers for over-embellishment.
No enhancements,no autotune,no pretense,no social media- just Carly. Simply beautiful in every way.
They use high end equipment... You bet there is some enhancement help there. Lol they are professionals.. But they are not perfect..

No electronics voice modulation, no oversampling or prerecorded tracks, just a great talent with a pure voice.

❤
One of the most truthful songs that i have heard in my seventy years of life.
❤
She's incredible and still is. God, I miss her. Still have her music, thank goodness ❤
If only the young people of today could experience the more friendly, open, easy-going days of the 70s. Really miss those days.
One of the most exquisite performances ever caught on film.
yup
Yes, indeed!
Actually on video tape.
I heard she had terrible performance anxiety and didn't like to do concerts
In béisbol terms, she hit it out of the park.
Honorable mention: Those legs.
Carly Simon is one of the most talented human beings who ever lived. She just steps in and turns a good song into a legendary song with her talented voice and timing. It's hard to believe that during the 70s people could enjoy Carly /Carole King/Linda Ronstadt/Stevie Nicks/Karen Carpenter/Joan Biaz/Emmy Lou Harris/Olivia Newton-John/Joni Mitchell / Diana Ross/ Judy Collins and many more. Year after year. Amazing talent. By the way, who do we have today??? I tend to forget.
Yes so sweet
We have no one
We lived a different time and place
women in the 70s were amazing.
@@josephpajestka8586 yes they were and they had more talent then singers who are around now which is junk
I think this performance by Carly Simon is the greatest live performance of an all-time great composition in the history of popular music. Astounding
They don’t write songs like these anymore, ones that speak to the heart, soul, and life; we need more Carly, the late Karen Carpenter, and Carol King, ballards written so beautiful. Always loved Carly Simon music.....
Try Taylor Swift: Evermore
@@abih1986 Taylor's music is crap!
So true thanks so much
And a bit later, Janis Ian!
Don't know about Karen writing many, not sure, but she delivered them perfectly like Carly and Carol
Why lord doesn't anyone sing like this anymore? Where are today's Carly Simon's? Please, we need more of her and less of you know who.
No who? Adele? Lady Gaga?
yes sick of these 2 ladies.....they have technical help in all they do......and they have zero charisma.....add arianne grande...madonna and all those others
Taylor Swift? Katy Perry? Beyoncé? Sick of these too!
Sara Bareilles is a good one...
Taylor Twit
49 years ago, sitting in my car, heading toward a divorce, I burst out crying when I heard "That's the Way I've Always Heard It Should Be." I've loved Carly's songs ever since
It really is a great song that still holds up all these years later, too many UA-cam commenters have an idea that life in 60s/70s/80s was something close to perfect, not at all.
Same here Marilyn. Also one by Carly Simon. I’m sure you know the one I’m thinking of. The just falling out of love one.
I messed up I meant Carol King
Very sad, I hope you found happiness and love.
That was the same for me wow! This song had a powerful message.
She is easily one of the top music artists of all time. Her looks, huge talent and unique voice, amazing
It looks like she's going to eat that microphone...I love her and her music.
Those were the days, huh?
Just a voice. Wow, no other fake stuff.
I always thought she were a very attractive women. I don’t see comments about how a natural beauty she really is. I read that Carly wanted to try acting, and one of her husbands said to her she wasn’t pretty enough... instead of supporting her he tried to hold her back. She could have been anything she wanted with her beauty and talent. Js 🤷♂️
Carly Simon and Carole King were two of my all time female artist. Listening sure brings back some fond memories of lost loves in my life.
Karen Carpenter also
Absolutely I agree. I have to toss in Karen Carpenter .. All of these women had unique vocals, and they all just were so amazing.
I'm glad somebody mentioned Carole King. This is coming from a classic rock fan who's favourite bands are Pink Floyd King Crimson Moody Blues and Uriah Heep
Mine too as well as Babs.
Love the above-mentioned but it was Stevie Nicks for me. Still my favorite female vocalist. Always will be. ❤
Finally Carly’s in the Rock and Roll 🎸 Hall of Fame. Sooo Deserving. I ❤️ her.
I adore her too! Always wanted to meet her!
I love her
Yes! ,Been loving me some Carly for years her haunting alto, her songwriting ability, this honor (sic), is way over due, congrats Carly, you are truly a modern Master, with great respect-a fan
So? She was no good until some shitty outfit recognized her? You missed the boat.
@@foobarmaximus3506 who said she was no good?
I was a young boy in the ‘70’s when this song came out, I wanted to marry Carly Simon and live happily ever after with her, she singing beautifully as we traversed through life…sometimes dreams will always stay forever dreams…so glad I saw this video tonight, it brought me back to happier times in my life
It happened for James Taylor
@@robertthacher-ro6bh yea, and he sure screwed that up pretty bad
@@jeand8943 What do you mean?
@@robertthacher-ro6bh he was married to her and then they got divorced
@@jeand8943 I know. They had two kids as well. Both adults now. Talk about talent!
This song hits me where I live every time I listen to it. I was 15 when this beautiful song was released and I was introduced to the angelic tones of Carly Simon. Her stunning beauty, her youth, her passion epitomize a time that I feel blessed to have lived through and continue to hold with heartfelt fondness. Underneath the flawless performance is what the song has to say about life - not just married life. The lump in my throat is genuine. The true mastery of this song and performance still resonates more than 50 years later. Thank you so much, Carly…
I remember when this hit the radio I felt it was kinda close to the situation in my house...but it couldn't, it was a just a song...right...?😢
I heard this first as a teen now I really understand it at 60.
We are lucky to be able too say this is the music of our youth, you rarely see talent like this today. Stay safe, healthy and back by popular demand ✌️
At the time, leaving the 8th grade and going into high school the next month after this was recorded in August, 1971, I had no idea how this song was a warning to me...wow, had I listened closely to these words...
I'm 64 relative I hope we can help the young fellers learn this music.
Indeed!
Oh crap I was actually in school then to. This really sucks. Guess I'll burn another 1.
The 70’s was the greatest decade of music ever.
Definitely. I will always believe this.
@Ali Yes a shame too.
@Ali The '60s yes... the early '80s sure but the later '80s/early '90s ehhh... there were moments/people but largely uhmmm... I don't know how to finish that. Don't get me wrong I liked the music but late '50s to early '80s then skip to the late '90s/early aughts had the songs that stay with me. Goes without saying I'm sure but this is just my opinion.
The good looks, the grooved-out fashion, the soft sounds w/ more than some exceptions, the lyrics that made so much sense, pure originality without hi-tech.......and the list goes on and on.
Too bad Disco ruined it
Oh Carly....We love your song...We heard it and we got married it anyway and named our daughter Carly...35 years later...still married...still in Love...That's The Way I Heard It Should BE...We went after Love not perfection...Now it's 2020...We know this...we can still try to love each other and others in spite of the virus. Love Never Fails.
Daniel Marin are you a boomer? Sweet, but boomers are so...I don’t know...they just can’t stop announcing themselves.
Enough with the ellipsis!
You are a wonderful man
Good Job! Life can be hard but with hard work and love you can make it work! GOD bless and best of luck.
Love this song and my wife of 30 + years.
A beautiful love story , All the best to the both of you ! Peace and Love
That’s one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Makes me cry every time I hear it.
My son will marry his beloved today and I can't stop playing this song. I'm already crying.
❤
Bittersweet milestone. Congratulations for your dear boy!💗
Don't be watching videos, go and get ready 😂
This song is so powerful it still blows my heart away.
goes right to the soul
I always felt I was born too late. The music in the 60’s and 70’s was pure. I prefer listening to this.
I was lucky I was born in 1952 the music of my life is hard to beat there's nothing and why am I crying
I feel so lucky. Now I'm 70 and feel like I'm fading fast. Grateful.
Very soulful song. I am grateful for the straightforward music of the 70's. God I miss those days..
Same. I was 10 in ‘71
That was flawless. She is gorgeous, and was in her prime. I melted just now.
She was always my fantasy woman. Shame she made bad choices foe husbands, one a heroin addict and number two came out of the closet after ten years of marriage.
@Barry White ,
You are absolutely correct! Carly Simon and Joni Mitchell were my two favorite "female" singer/songwriters. They are Luciferian-Baphomet/Reptilian entities. It's very evil, very deceptive and very sad!
Agree 150% !! Beautiful !!
Wow! What a babe Carly is ! Will never tire of her song ! Simply magnificent !
You are so right! I remember watching this when I was ten years old on TV . This just mesmerized me then and still today. Was that Simon and Garfunkel before her performance?
I have chills just listening to this masterpiece. I've always loved her voice
Her dad, the Simon in "Simon and Shuster," mustt have had mixed feelings about Carly and this song. Can you imagine the captain's of industry asking him how did your daughter turn out? "Well, she's a millionaire rock star who writes her own songs. She just married James Taylor, and I'm gonna be a grandfather. So I'd say she turned out pretty good."
For sure great song
Same here, my friend.
I read her memior, her dad died before she got famous.
@@emilymalden3310 wow...Too bad, that must have been crushing. Him not knowing what an icon his daughter turned out to be. Must have been all that hard work put him in an early grave. Still, it woulda been a kick, them discussing this song "honey, your mother isn't gonna like it, her sitting there reading her magazine." Carly S: " Sorry pop, I call em like I see them."
To the current generation..you have my greatest sympathy.
To my own generation....We may be older now, but man it was worth it,
Melodically this is a beautiful tune, but don't forget that's it's also a song about how marriage sucks, which mindset has contributed to the breakdown of society that we're currently experiencing today.
@@musicoldies83 It's a shame that marriage sucks so much then, huh? 🤣
Music Oldies . Maybe it’s an observation put into words . Not a contribution to the breakdown of society.
@robt555 . Maybe you could play it at your 4th wedding to your obnoxious two friends..
generation ralph wiggum
Carly is a real legend and still is in July of 2024
I remember going to a James Taylor concert when I was in High School. My girlfriend and I were sitting right in front of the sound system. But little did we know that sitting behind us was Carly Simon. We just stared at this beautiful woman, with big hair and a hat. It wasn’t until James Taylor introduced her as his wife that we realized who she was and that we were sitting next to a rising star. That really made our evening being that close to her. She had the greatest smile! The music in the 70’ s were the best! Nothing today compares to the 70’s.
One of the most unique voices there will ever be, "NO ONE" sounds like Carly, and Carly like no other, I still Love her, that has never changed. Thank-You Carly for the love, and the memories.
@Robert Ramsey yeh, our self-righteous, self-aggrandizing, narcissist, with schizophrenic tendencies, potentate, believes himself to be a demigod, and his own party believes, he walks on water, and take pride in all his rhetoric, just remember:
"Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall."
@@hawkeye1836 why do you have to bring Trump into this discussion? I think people like you are a big reason why our country is in the state it in today. Why must conflate things by injecting your bullshit into the discussion on any topic. You're a lot like Trump, Take a look in the mirror and listen to the way you act and sound.
@@hawkeye1836 only a true narcissisti would try and hi jack people's memories of a awesome musical time with their own vitriol that has nothing to do with this video...
the music in the sixties was pretty darn good! I love the sixties too. Seventies run a close second though.
This song ...so much truth...hate themselves for what they are. I wasn't what was expected I guess. Coming up the backstair trying tip toe...not be noticed. Expected to marry. My mother always said sweet dreams. I love you for reaching out to a kid in 1970s. I can still listen and get it at 70. Thank you
One of the saddest songs I've ever heard. Beautiful
Indeed. So many have gone through this. 💙
A voice. Not dancing, just singing.
‘Their children hate them for what they are, they hate themselves for what they are not’.
Man, that sums up 1970.
Worse today I think. Parents aren't parents anymore.
Their children hate them for the things they're not, they hate themselves for what they are
@@kw6382. Yes, thank you for the correction. This song is the perfect explanation to people who complain about Boomer parents. Listen to what it is saying.
@@kw6382You got it right.
That's a powerful line as Carley wrote it.
Such a devastating yet wonderful song. Carly Simon is a great talent. “ Their children hate them for the things they’re not; they hate themselves for what they are.” Wow.
sad but true...
@@thegreenbird795 ohv
Words of today
Socks ya right in the gut ! So unbearably true !
So true. The one that kills me as a woman is “I’ll never learn to be just me first, by myself”
I never realised how beautiful Carly Simon was and how passionate and good of a singer she was.
I never realized how hot she was either!
Yes I 2nd that emotion.
Is, she IS a brilliant singer and a lovely lady.
We in the 70's knew exactly her beautiful voice , songs, and passion.
indeed
George Harrison Talking to Art Garfunkal waiting on Carly to play is Priceless.
Thank You; was Familiar looking, but,
i couldn't place the face talking to Art,
and it was driving me nuts.
Yes. George. Thanks.
Would that have been a show to be at, or what?
Wow, what a time.
I was wondering how many other people would catch it.
Bangladesh George.
Got Art missed George :(
Had to look twice at George. But yeah. To be a fly on the wall for that conversation.
I was 13 when this song came out. It has such deep meaning, and Carly co-wrote it. Everybody asks her about "You're So Vain". I'd ask her about this song. What was the inspiration to write it? This song still sends chills through me, and is so haunting, and so true.
I heard it was a song about her family.
@@smujer1 Thanks !! Ya know, I can believe that.
I heard it was about Warren Beatty
I was reading the lyrics and the page quoted Carly as saying this about the song:
About the song, Carly was quoted years later as saying:
When I first wrote it, I thought it was an unusual thing for people to break up and now all my friends are divorced.
Such an awesome song. My mother sat smoking in a dark room!
I never get tired of this performance. Carly sings it so beautifully and sensually.
Hello Holly, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus?
@@trevorjennings72 Lol
Yes. Just beautiful
@@trevorjennings72 Which virus? 🤣
A wonderful of example of "let the song speak for itself" - Performed so simply, no frills or ostentation, no ego or star trip evident, pitch perfect singing, she "allows" the song to just be there. That's greatness right there. Brava Carley Simon.
Raw talent...
What a beautiful comment, DaDa.
BravO
Love your comment...
Spoken like a pro! Touches the far reaches of our soul. She understands pain and respects it. The love of music allows her to reach out to trillions of us. Gentle and bold Carly!
She is the real deal. Love her. The reason music from my generation was so genuine is there weren't any rules. Music was evolving and there was room for genius writing and performing like this song has. I was in high school and I remember wondering if our music could possibly be as incredible as it seemed. In retrospect, it was. Artists like this created magic for us, and I am eternally grateful for all their talent and hard work.
+sunlitweb well said! I love the 70s!
rubytuesday24 I am proud of our generation that stepped "outside the box" and changed the World with it's music as a pioneer.
+Sly Holladay Your generation should be correctly labeled as degenerates.
+sunlitweb They touched our thoughts and feelings by weaving their musical creations into the fabric of our lives; ensuring that we'd carry our experiences as we aged, while their voices and melodies became the back drop, the soundtrack if you will. You're right, our music more than stood the test of time.
+sunlitweb Being a very young "60" now....Carly/Taylor and the majority of the 'soft-rock' registrar was not my hip.....mind you...lOl I was (am-ll) quite the hipster....BUT...in my broad knowledge of contemporary music...these songwriters stood TALL. Carly Simon has always owned a SPOT in my personal vinyl bin...JT///Nope...Still, here in 2015...this song never fails to bring tears to my eyes for so many reasons I quiver inside in an attempt to categorize them...oh...yeah, I'm a 100% oversexed hetro living with a gorgeous easter european (bulgarian) woman 18 yrs my junior.....who , with a massive bunch of letters (degrees) after her name still finds my catagoration of music dificult to annex.......so goes life: whatever's left at this point..."WHO-you're- I am? so VAIN!"
As a senior member, class of 1946 Baby Boomer, we................all.... had memories of all the best of times, of music, of life in general. It will never be again, no matter how good things become. It was a time of unprecedented optimism, of joy and ...of just plain fun. I am so grateful for being there. I don't know what I did to be so blessed, but, thank you, God, for the privilege of being there. Carly was one of us, such a talented girl.
almost 50 years ago and it is still perfection!!
She is really the only one who could ever sing this song.
She is the only one who could ever do any of her songs. This woman was truly unique.
She is also the only one who could give Karen carpenter a run for her money
@@michaelhendrickson5287 She had so much "Soul" in her voice.
joni mitchell maybe, but good point
Carole King could probably sing this, reminds me of her song Seventeen.
This is an absolute masterpiece. I love Carly Simon.
Bring This Music Back..2023 Pse❤
She crosses that “alto break” so effortlessly...such a beautifully amazing voice.
I remember first hearing this song. Even on AM car radio, it gave me CHILLS. The intensity, the clarity, the lyrics. Found out who, & bought album. Wow. NOBODY else could sing this song. And nobody has.
Noticed that
what did you said ?😅
"Weird song about marriage". Incredibly beautiful and haunting. They don't write 'em like this anymore. Listening in October 2020.
Watching Carly sing this is 1000x different than I’ve ever heard the song. The audience is beyond quiet, they seem almost stunned.
Entranced
Respectful, no whooping and hollering. Imagine that, actually listening to the performance.
Me too. Absolutely Stunning
She commands full attention and gets it - watch the audiences everywhere- they are totally fixated on every melodic word Carly sings as if it's her first!
@@papakapI can't stand "whooping" in a serious ballad.
Her live performance sounds exactly like the version recorded in the studio. How awesome……what an amazing voice
Now that’s the real deal!
I listened to this at 10. At 58,having lived it and divorced, I now fully understand. Sad.
The angels are listening.
Me too.
I was born in 74 and i remember my mom playing this song all the time. Never realizing till later this was her life.
I'm with you exactly. XoX perfect comment. Best to you today and everyday.
@kevin w I'm so sorry you had to go through that & live with a toxic crazy person. The kids will grow up & want to know your truth & you'll tell them & they'll adore you! I'd wish her something awful but I believe in karma so I wish her nothing but the ability to be a good mother if nothing else. Btw, I stayed with my ex so long thinking you're suppose to!?! I'm glad there were no children involved but I waisted way too much of mine. It is what it is...I hope today with little exception you're happy & have a life full of promise, joy & laughter today & everyday 😊😌🤣
This is my mother's music, my music, and my children's music. Thank you, Carly. Thank you, mom.
And me as brother
Absolutely; this I claim as my generation. Love it so much.
Same. She was my mom's favorite, thus the reason I was named Carly (Megan is my middle name)....my mom passed when I was 8 & I cling to Carly to help remember the time we had together 💓
I really wish it was the 70's again......when i was young....
snowball6389 Me too. 💕
oh yes
Yes, I'll go along with that fantasy - but only if I could know what I know now and not make all the same mistakes.
lorilynn610 absolutely!!
I'd like to stay in present time and be young like I was in the 70s and 80s.
I WAS 10 YEARS OLD IN 1971. STILL LOVING YOUR VOICE, & WHAT U STOOD 4 ❣️ THANK U ❣️ LUV FR FLAGSTAFF,ARIZONA USA ❣️
"They hate themselves for what they are" ... wow.
Absolute masterpiece of a song right here, folks.
cowsongs look at the audience, they are shocked, her singing is blowing them away.
I love Carly Simon's voice. She is a classic.
Hello Jennifer, How are you doing?
I was lucky that I went to high school in the mid-70s; there was so much good popular music on the radio during those years. Simon, Carole King, James Taylor, Cat Stevens, Gordon Lightfoot, Janis Ian, Phoebe Snow, the list just goes on and on. And all so distinctive --- nobody else sounds like Carly Simon, Stevens, any of the others. Nobody like 'em today.
And the best part back then was, you had no diversions when you went to see a concert. No friggin' I-phones or selfies, just pure enjoyment of the act. Then afterwards, we'd go to a house party, and anyone who went was abuzz with their experience. And we'd play the artist on the turntable (yes, a turntable-and we'd hold the cover and comment on the picture or design of the cover) over and over. Good times. RIP Johnny Boy (best party's)
Lock me up in 1971 and throw away the key. There's no intelligent life left in 2019.
Me too! 1973 high school grad. Theres a lot of truth in this song.
This was music then and now. Why would I listen to anything else I’m 63 yrs old!
I agree! 1973 grad.... I still listen to all of them... I went to a class at the YMCA on Monday, the music, if you can call it that, was all electronically generated. I was wishing for wireless earphones.@@awomanwonderful

Carly Simon. When I was a kid, I thought she was the most beautiful, sexy, amazing singer ever. I am now 68 years old, and I still think that. Love you, Carly, and may God bless you and your loved ones. 2024.
Carly is an Icon. She just is. She moves your soul at the same time comforting you. That in 2021 is unheard of.
Really?
I am just glad to have had this great Music in my life.
Ours you mean...!!!
It will never be as good as these years either I'm afraid.
I thank God every day.
Yes..... Yes we are......
Me too.
Possibly one of the best songs ever written. So real. I can't hear it without crying.
Same
None of us can
BEAUTIFUL!!! Only way to describe this. An era gone but not forgotten
I too wish to rewind to the 1970's, the best time of my life.
60's, 70's, 80's, 90's...all good for me, in various ways.
'71 thru '75 - Over and over again. Does anybody have the "Ground Hog Day" formula?
'71 thru '75 - Over and over again. Does anybody have the "Ground Hog Day" formula?
Vanilla fudge
Yeah E.S....But if we all did that and relived our good ole days over again, it just wouldn't be as beautifully remembered and powerful as the very fist run. We just need to keep our good ole days alive...
When this song came out on our radios I loved this song. I was a teenager then. I'm 64 now.
Me too!!!
@@93hshadow Me too!
Mama Jacqueroo i was 13. This is the first top 40 song I can remember that made me get choked up. Until then, I thought pop was only dancable and fun. I think the word to describe this song is poignant. At 13, I was torn up inside by this.
I am too...
This song hits home with me now much harder at 61 than at 16 having lived part of it.
This song is a haunting reminder of how things were when I was a kid growing up...... I can listen to this a million times and i still shed a tear...... every damn time......
Beautiful just beautiful!! I sure do miss the 1970s, music was for real!! 2023 here❤🎶
One of the most brutally honest songs ever penned.
When I saw the film "The Ice Storm," I kind of associated it with this song.
@@mysterysurf4554 Yeah Sigourney Weaver's character brought me a few Carly memories too. ;=)
@mi channnal Yup for sure that's the other one that qualifies for DoctoRhthyms description. It was my immediate thought.
I’m stuck in the 70’s, am I one lucky man 😅
Me too at 61!
Oh lucky girl lol!
It was just the best music. There was so much to enjoy 😊 I’m 63 so stuck with all that great stuff 👍
Me too. 70 and stuck in the 70's
62 here and just love the 70s music. Listened to it then and will always be listening to it
She breezed in and dropped this great performance - all while fighting crippling stage fright. And singing such a quiet, intimate song, to a huge crowd, is quite the task!
I read a book on Carly, Joni, and Carole. In the end, Carly appeared to be the most normal of the bunch, by far!
Jus
Carly Simon is a wonderful singer and her performances are always so emotional and charmful. The orchestra is also great.❤❤❤
❤
Glad I was born in 1961.....and grew up & got to hear music like this. God save my children & grandchildren from what's playing now.
Amen to this. Today's music sucks eggs.
Some of today's music is good also. Don't get stuck in the past? I think we sometimes get a little nostalgic from memories from when the hormones raged during high school and college.
Myself. August third. It's been an interesting journey. Hope you're still spinning with us right now.
1955 here, so much has been forgotten. . . But my youngest (19) changes everything. She took my wife, who is 62 yrs old, to Ed Sheeran. Music will never die.
was born a few years earlier, 1954. had 2 kids, they grew up good, wouldn't want to bring kids into this world today.
My God, she is the most beautiful, talented woman, that has ever sat at a piano, this song takes me right back....
Mid 70s. Life was much, much simpler.... Just sayin.
You're damn right Joe. Then everyone made it so damn complicated.
Eileen Joyce. And she’s just one example of a more “talented” piano player. Carly is prodigiously talented. But what Eileen Joyce was doing was something totally different, way more complex, etc... still, I’m pretty sure we can say, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that just citing this one example disproves your “hype”.
I love Carly, and I know she was stunningly gorgeous. But she’s just one of many.
No, humans were just as complicated then, as now. I think I know what you’re trying to say. You’re wrong, but I understand
Oh yes indeed.
Yes you said it right.
I miss music like this. We never thought great songs like this would end, but they have.
They have not ended as long as you keep listening.
The 70’s!!
@@samwisethebrave288 I Agree
NO they haven't I've heard new artists record some of the songs from back in the day!!!!!!!
velocità sadly the 70's will never be repeated. I was lucky to be youth during those times. I sit back on quiet days now kids griwn and I reflect with smile and tears on my face rendering!!!
Simply amazing sound still in 2023!! Legendary performance 👍🏾❤️❤️❤️
As a person that never wanted to get married...This amazing song has resonated with me my entire life. We all can choose our own path.
Yeah men and women are not fit for one another. The goals are too different
Exactly 🥰
I hope you never got married, and I hope you never procreated. Your right to be alone is unassailable. Just stay off to yourself.
I never married either. Engaged three times but in the end, I didn’t see myself settled in. I enjoyed my freedom too much and our life’s goal ended up being way too different. I see all my friends both males and females ending up miserable and confiding in me saying I made the best decision not to get married.
Me too. 66 and never married. Had my daughter, but didn't marry her Father. This song always echoed in my head....
What a PERFORMANCE....outstanding pitch live...
Absolutely - to perform at that peak unaccompanied almost beggars belief - outstanding
Ikr? A lot of performers are badly out of tune ...
Congratulations on being induced in the rock and roll hall of fame- you deserve it !!
Killer song. Heartbreaking now as it was those many years ago💔
