I got to record a vocal session of her for the song "Tired of Being Blond" and she sure lived up to exactly what she says here... "There is something treasurable about everybody". She was genuinely warm and a pleasure to be around.

Love both Carly and Dan Rather's interviews.

[@Grizzlied555]

Love Carly Simon! Still to this day!❤

[@bobsmithers]

I still sing this song today! Amazing!

[@elisaorozco9494]

Carly is not only amazingly talented. She is also very wise............

[@sethwetzel974]

I love her with all my heart!!! She's awesome!!!

[@caleguillory5451]

Mick Jagger sang the harmony vocals on “You’re So Vain”, but the back up vocals were done by the same backup singers who sang on “The Right Thing to Do” - Carly Simon who of course also sang lead, then there was Vicki Brown and Liza Strike - if I’m not mistaken.

I remember my brother playing her songs in his room in the 70s. Wow wonderful times.

[@jimmcdougall9973]

Beautiful woman, beautiful voice. So graceful. One of the top vocalist and song writers of my time. Her voice is up there either the likes of Karen Carpenter. An Angel.

Beautiful Lady that made great music.

Glad Carly made the rock n' rolll hall of fame.

[@LandRunProductions]

I really hope that folks that suffer from a stutter happen across this.
What a wonderful and practical technique.

[@Rockesb888]

Her biography was very interesting, she’s lived quite a life.

[@jarodcarnarvon5198]

Such a talented beautiful awesome sweet woman😊😊😊!!!

[@tenlittleindians]

That's the shortest "Big Interview" on the planet.

If there's ever an eclipse hitting East Canada, I'll be sure to go to Nova Scotia to see it, LOL

[@SamuelM.-iz1un]

Another classy singer of before. What has happened nowadays?

[@pizzalover2809]

Diva

[@glenngrinter6818]

I still go to Saratoga where my horse doesn’t naturally win.💰😳🎼

[@jsizemo]

Warren Beatty? Heard it was Mick Jagger

[@angelabluebird609]

No, Mick sang back up on this song, though.

[@8td8tr]

Neither one was a good catch!

[@kimplummer2672]

we all knew it was warren beatty back then.

[@Juliukas101]

What has she done to her nose? It looks odd! Shame as she was a very attractive lady.
