Carly Simon had an anxiety disorder that caused terrible stage fright so consider that while watching this. As a child she had a bad stammer when she spoke, but not when she sang. So she sang what she wanted to speak instead and that cured her stammer. She was a brilliant singer/songwriter. The world is a better place for having her in it.
David ..no stage fright there!
@Ricky Spanish I am no fan of the rich and privileged, but to imply that because someone grew up wealthy they could not and did not suffer emotional pain doesn't make sense. Are you perhaps envious of the material things that another person had so that you can't see them as a human being? She is not some polluting, warmongering billionaire that we can all look at and say bad person. She is a human being like everyone else, and her songs reflect human emotions that we love to hear and relate to.
Thank you for that story… I knew she had stage fright, but not the rest (the singing-through-her-stutter).🙏
This is such a haunting song. Her upbringing sounds so empty and sad. Even the prospect of marriage has it's hopes clipped. The entire song is like one giant tear that hangs, waiting to drop. Carly Simon has always been one of the most powerful, to the point, song writers. And I agree, her voice is amazing!
I always loved Carly. This is pretty rare because she was known for having stage fright.
Love that you smiled at the words “…just me first, by myself.” Knew then that you totally resonated with this song. Thanks for sharing your story. Not tired of that at all. Yes, Carly Simon and Carole King - both had big first albums about the same time, early 70’s. They were part of the singer-songwriter/troubadour thing that defined the 70s for many of us.
Carly is one of the all time great singer songwriters. Huge catalog of hits. You’re So Vain is a must
Completely agree with you
As is;
the spy who loved me;)
Nobody does it better;)
I remember Phylis George a football commentator did a video of Walter Peyton running a football to “Nobody does it better”! WOW!
You hit the trifecta… She was married to James Taylor who Carol King wrote many songs for. They even have duets together like Up On The Roof.
The 70's reflected in a single song. So wonderfully sad.
Carly Simon - a unique voice and a unique beauty. All of her songs stand the test of time.
Agree with you!
Hello Angela: Rest assured, nobody is tired of hearing how and why you relate to certain lyrics. I am delighted to hear that you listened to your instincts, and chose the challenging unkown of personal discovery, over the security of the mundane. It can be wondrous to share your life with a spouse, but nobody requires anyone else to "complete" them. Good on you! 👍👍❤❤
When I first met my wife, she "completed" me. Now, I'm finished.
A great poignant song that exposes the truth of so many relationships.
oh yea....and I was always able to pick up on the sarcasm in her lines....she's not ready to be pressured into someone else's ideas of 'happiness'.....great song and very deep
I can relate to this song. It's doing what you're expected to do not what you want to do in a relationship. So you do it. George Harrison and Art Garfunkel are on stage with her. It was recorded at Jones Beach Long Island NY. The full video you'd see it.
Carley Simon "Coming around again" (original video) is my FAVORITE from her. Sooo good ❤️ Here's the link:

Same!!!
Every time I've ever heard this song, I am touched so deeply in my heart. Just the best!
Awesome song
I was in college when this came out. It hit me then and still hits me now.
Carly came from the Simon and Schuster world. Made her own World. What a career.
Carly who was married to James Taylor at one time has had several hits in her career and has performed with some of the greatest names in music is a absolute treasure
Thank you for sharing Angela, I could tell that you were feeling it. And yes Carly does have a wonderful voice, This was her first hit off her first album, just her voice piano and drums sold it. It must have hit a place with many others.
Carly finally about to get her due in Hall of Fame. More, more, more Carly!!!
So happy that you are finding out how talented the women, and men, were back in the 70's and beyond, especially the live performances where you actually see and hear how close they sounded to the original recordings. So many of today's generation have not and probably never will get to feel the emotions you are feeling and expressing to us by hearing these great artists of our generation.
"Their children hate then for the things they're not.
They hate themselves for what they are."
Those are very poignant lyrics for those of us who are parents.
That's actually pretty horrible to hear that from your children!
This is an aspect to some families and it resonates with certain people. It is a very powerful lyric.
I've always loved this song. And as you mentioned, she does remind me of Carol King. Carly Simon has a great catalog of music. Songs like You're So Vain, No Body Does It Better, Haven't Got Time For The Pain, You Belong To Me and many more.
Also, I enjoyed your comments as well. Nice to hear you sharing your thoughts and feelings. Take care!
I personally do not mind hearing about your life, its part of who you are, do not be ashamed or never talk about it.I wish I could respond better
One of the mist BEAUTIFUL SONGS EVER DONE LIVE PERIOD!
I know this is late to the reaction, however, you just described my life… I did what was expect, did school, did the marriage, and it fell apart… BUT I grew and became the person I was meant to be. So much happier.. traveling abroad, seeing other countries/cultures, live alone learning “Me”.. now with my wife of 16 years, and enjoying life.
In fact Carol King and Carly Simon share history with the same man!! He was James Taylor.... When he started an artistic relationship wit Carol King, Carly came with that big hit song called "You're so vain" written for James!..The clue is in the lyrics of the song when Carol refers to him as "flying in his learjet to Nova Scotia to watch a total eclipse of the sun" In fact, James's parents weres born in Nova Scotia, Canada!! Also James Tylor and Carol King shared the same hit "You got a friend" and seems to be they are singing that song in duo in a video in UA-cam if I'm not mistaken... That's life!!
best singer songwriter of her generation, totally unique
Carly was one brilliant songwriter. Her use of imagery to draw you into the lyric and see exactly what she was feeling was incredible. This song intro you actually can see her in your mind's eye. Some Carly history, her father was Richard L Simon the founder of the publishing house Simon and Schuster a powerhouse in American Publishing and media. Carly grew up in wealth and privilege. Her song You want to marry me is a cynical appraisal of the institution of marriage through the lens of her upbringing and the loneliness she learned from her parents. She walks through snapshots of her life and the way she witnesses the hypocrisy of acceptable married life only to pull back the curtain and look at the damage. She still wants to try. God, know we try and make a marriage work but Carly sings about her trepidation as a woman embarking on a commitment.
Your reaction & facial expressions were beautiful priceless
"Nobody Does It Better" is a very fine slow song by her. "Mockingbird" (a fast song) is great, too, which she sings with her Ex (James Taylor).
You are right Ken, Nobody does it better is a great song. When it first came out I thought it was just alright. I don’t know if you are a football fan or not, but I was watching football one day and they played a video of a great running back by the name of Walter Peyton, and this song played to that song, and I was instantly a big fan of it. Just thought I would share!!
@@nrwlkguy Peyton's nickname was "Sweetness". It fit him perfectly. Too bad he died way too soon.
@@maajorkv When Peyton passed away, it was heartbreaking. Can you imagine if he could have ran behind the Cowboys offensive line of the 90’s? One can wonder!!
Besides the joy and appreciation you show for much of the music you react to, your honesty and openess in telling stories about how you personally relate to songs is a big part of what makes you such a wonderful reactor. Don't think about stopping it! What you say is rambling on is part of what makes it so easy for us to relate to you ❤
If we've subscribed to your channel, and we're continuing to give you views, then we're definitely NOT tired of hearing you inject your own life experiences into your reactions. Heck, that's what makes YOUR reactions unique to other reactors of the same song. Keep doing it whenever you feel moved to do so.
Love your reaction. Love how people relate to it to their own story. Which good songs do. Her describing her parents marriage was like she saw my childhood and teenage years. My dad cheated on my mom I found out and never wanted to get married. But I did finally at age 33. And guess what. He cheated. Probably through the whole marriage. My biggest fear and it all my making sure it didn’t happen didn’t matter. Sometimes I think God knows we have to go through stuff. Had two beautiful kids so I will never call it a mistake. At 49 remarried to a wonderful man. We’ve been together for 9 years now and we are so so happy.
You have one of the best "reaction" channels because you actually REACT to the songs! Other channels just go through the songs like they are being forced to. Often giving no reaction at all. Just asking for likes and subs!
If you don't like a song you tell us. When you like a song you tell us why you feel a connection to it.
As long as YOU feel comfortable sharing your feelings and thoughts, please keep doing it.
Two songs that might make you feel something are both sung by Phil Collins.
The first is with GENESIS: "Your Own Special Way" and solo "Don't Let Him Steal Your Heart Away."
Hi Angela! I've been in a similar situation. Thank you so much for sharing! Carly Simon - Nobody Does It Better. That is THE one! I highly suggest it for your reaction.
She has an oracular voice ❤️💯🔥😎
In my opinion you’re far and away the most genuine of persons who do the reaction videos. Don’t feel badly that you share personal things, you’re being genuine and honest. You have a great feel for music and how you break down songs & musicians/ singers for us. I respect your opinions and honesty. Great to hear you’re happier now, tells you that your moving and being on your own was the right decision. God Bless You Angela !! 🙏🏻✝️❤️
Don't stop talking about yourself. That was really great what you shared. Keep being you!
A beautiful song that highlights Carly's beautiful voice and her ability to convey emotion. I remember so well when it was a huge hit. I was in the challenging "move in together" phase at the time.
One of the best female singing voices of all time that's for damn sure!!!!
Your candid statement of your own life circumstances brings more power to your channel. Thank you for opening up about your emotional experience and weaving it into Carley’s song ❤️
Genius writer and singer!!
Carly is awesome!
She like Carole King were both part of the Singer Songwriter Era of the early to mid seventies.
I see you got a little teary-eyed .I loved that song back in the day good selection .
I've always loved her voice. Thanks for covering her. Don't live up or down to others expectations. I was very happily single for 30 years. I did and saw most of all that I wanted to. Then. The girl I married was lots of fun and lots of frustration for 37 years. Things work out.
Yes I also love Carley Simon
A true masterpiece. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Amazing debut hit song by Carly Simon. An exceptional talent from a prosperous, distinguished family (with their own troubles). Thank you so much for sharing your personal reflections on the subject matter. Your honesty is much appreciated.
Angela I could sit and listen to talk all night you share what you feel comfortable sharing. Love you reactions best one out there
she has such an iconic voice.
I love your reactions and your “babbling “! Share your amazing insights
Thanks for sharing the vulnerability we all have, It shows a lot of courage.
Good point, Carol King was popular then. Carly is a great singer from the early 70s, very popular for many years. For some reason she became forgotten. Life can be strange. Her biggest songs were Anticipation and Your so Vain. Was married to successful singer James Taylor for some time.
Nice Choice, Carly is just so classy and yeah, a great voice and songwriter. Try Your so Vain. That was so nice, been awhile since I heard her, she is still great all these years later. Thanks pretty lady, you did great. 😎
Absolutely beautiful her music will never die out
Carly is a powerhouse legend...
she has an extensive collection... A great rabbit hole. Here's another song of her "Carly Simon - Nobody Does It Better - The Spy who Loved Me (Live)" another artists that was Equally as famous was "Helen Reddy - I Am Woman (Australian Tv Special/ 1975/HQ)" she also has a great collection. Thanks and Take Care~
They say laughter is the best medicine and it may be true, but music is the surgery that opens old wounds and removes the infections left behind.
Carly is an amazing singer. Please do more Carly reactions.
Such a haunting voice.
Carly Simon"s music cuts right though the soul.
“Their children hate them for the things they’re not, they hate themselves for what they are...”
ANGELA : A note about Carly Simon. this is from the spring of '71. -------Carly Simon is the daughter of the publishing empire of SIMON & SCHUSTER publishing. She was raised in wealth & went to the best schools. She composed this song, & then as fate would have it, met & fell in love with singer--song writer, James Taylor. they married------he had addiction issues & of course, he cheated on her while she was pregnant-----& eventually, they divorced in a very --------VERY------contentious divorce . Sad. --------- ------MJL, 77 y/o
Carly Simon is a national treasure. I love her music. A few of her songs you want to listen to are,
YOU'RE SO VAIN
NOBODY DOES IT BETTER
ANTICIPATION.
And she has a song, YOU BELONG TO ME that Michael McDonald sings background vocals on. Speaking of Michael McDonald, he also sings background on the Steely Dan record TIME OUT OF MIND. And has an amazing video duet with Patti Labelle, ON MY OWN. You will really like it. I hear you talk about relationship songs and think this one suits you.
I have a song, not a golden oldie but it's from a heart broken you girl that has suffered the loss of her mother yet through it all she found her voice and its simply a miracle, Rhema Marvanne and the song is Just as I Am, it's emotional.
Wow, thanks for sharing. It made a lot if sense and im glad you were brave enough to not settle. The fact that you cut it off and moved was big. Great reaction.
Tgif love your reactions.
This song always reminds me of my parents who lived miserably ever after. My poor mother each her six kids twisted the knife in her a different way.
Karla Bonoff is another great female musician of that genre and time period. She has always been one of my favorites.
From late Spring, early Summer, of '71. Just after Carole King sang " It's Too Late ", & Gordon Lightfoot sang " If You Could Read My Mind " ------------another classic singer song writer. She married James Taylor , & they made it for 7 years, before his drug use & alcohol use destroyed them---------MJL< 75 y/o
Your search reminds me of words in a Madonna song, "Dont settle for second best, Put your love to the Test" which it could also say, Put your Life to the Test.
Beautiful classic , I would highly recommend the studio version.
@Angela Very interesting take. As far as the Carol King vibe goes it that’s probably because they were both NYC born and raised so culturally they probably had similar influences. I think it’s great that you think out loud about life and love. Relationships are complicated and it’s difficult to blend everyone’s needs and wants during “Love Projects”…
Your reactions, like you, are beautiful. Thanks.
beautiful song and reaction
A great voice, and an amazing talent who just happened to be the daughter of Richard Simon of the Simon and Schuster publishing empire! Thank you also, for opening up about your relationship and what happened. It's part of what makes you and your reactions special, so don't change! I've been waiting for some time for you to get to this one so I am so pleased you did at last! Please add "Try" by Blue Rodeo and "Hi De Ho" by Blood Sweat and Tears to your list!!
Finally made Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. Great singer-songwriter.
You might like You Can Close Your Eyes (HD) - James Taylor & Carly Simon is on YT. Them at home in Martha's Vineyard in their studio.
You're So Vain was a big hit.
Not surprising that she reminds you of Carol King. They are of the same time. Many of us feel the same. Both strong women, fabulous voices, great lyricists. This is a powerful song with a strong vision. Romantic vs Cynic (or realist). Go with your feelings, your gut. It seems the struggle to find yourself has been echoed by Adele in her latest album.
"If you wind up with a boring, miserable life because you listened to your mom, your dad, your teacher, your priest, or some guy on TV telling you how to do your shit, then you deserve it." Frank Zappa
You need to listen to "I've Got To Have You" by Carly Simon. It's another amazing song that takes you places before jolting you with a brilliant guitar solo that makes your emotions soar like a bird. When you're missing that someone special late at night, put this track on.
Wonderful commentary. Thanks for sharing
Lather, rinse, repeat. Sometimes it's not so good to perpetuate the same routine. That's what this song is about. Glad you got it.
Angela, I hope you find your someone special.
We all deserve that.
Carly has been nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of fame. Please go to their website and vote for her.
Well said!
Angela: I just want to let you know how much your reactions mean to me. Watch most of your reactions.... you are definitely an old soul. I, too, am a crybaby! Every time I watch you react to the Bee Gees (greatest group ever) .... Carpenters (Karen, best voice ever)....any of the great groups from the 70's...many who I saw in concert.... I feel like that's exactly how I must have felt the first time I heard these fabulous songs. So... I just want to say thank you...every smile you smile and every tear you shed warms my heart. We are decades apart, but are kindred souls. God Bless You.... and thank you so much...you are deeply appreciated....
Good for you Angela.............
I liked your story, you did the right thing! Gotta be true to yourself...I did the same thing years ago.
Please react to ‘ Your so vain’
Carly’s greatest track with Mick Jagger (uncredited) on back up vocals
I see this one really moved you. A great piece of art will do that.
A Must Hear Classic,, Rose Royce "I'm Going Down"
You are so wise... luv you 💓
You have listed to so many songs of my youth. Would love to introduce you to some 80s "love songs" we called them power ballads back then.. you can start with Firehouse. when I look into your eyes.
Lovely song! I just subscribed today to you Angela! Have watched quite a few of your lovely reactions!! You do a great job!

Love to some is a burden - it takes a life time for One to know who one is or what one wants - before they know it, their old and gray - and life has passed them by!
Haven’t heard this in a while- such a beautiful yet surreal song- 💖👍✌️
I love how you listen to songs i grew up with, i sense you have an old soul as you seem to appreciate these wonderful singers and songwriters, great reaction~
