Hmmm...Could'a been...'Course I can kind'a see her spottin me somewheres at 10 years old and thinkin'..."Law'd A'Mercy"...!...Nope there is another out there that she won't talk about...Not Warren Beatty, and not Mick Jagger, and whoever this folk bee's-"Curtis LeMay"...Someone else in her age group and..."Gets Around"...and would wear an Apricot Scarf...and be flown 'round in a lear jet when on an assignment...[?]...
I loved her "No Secrets" album. Not the songs; just the album cover. [:p]
Shoulda been titled "Is it cold in here?"
What a huge mouth on that femme!
Don't worry, it'll stretch!
Curtis LeMay
What????????

Nice sweater Carly!
That girl had a voice that was the shizznits.
And it was Beatty.

Carly Simon
My father sits at night with no lights on
His cigarette glows in the dark.
The living room is still;
I walk by, no remark.
I tiptoe past the master bedroom where
My mother reads her magazines.
I hear her call sweet dreams,
But I forgot how to dream.
But you say it's time we moved in together
And raised a family of our own, you and me -
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be:
You want to marry me, we'll marry.
My friends from college they're all married now;
They have their houses and their lawns.
They have their silent noons,
Tearful nights, angry dawns.
Their children hate them for the things they're not;
They hate themselves for what they are-
And yet they drink, they laugh,
Close the wound, hide the scar.
But you say it's time we moved in together
And raised a family of our own, you and me -
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be:
You want to marry me, we'll marry.
You say we can keep our love alive
Babe - all I know is what I see -
The couples cling and claw
And drown in love's debris.
You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds,
But soon you'll cage me on your shelf -
I'll never learn to be just me first
By myself.
Well O.K., it's time we moved in together
And raised a family of our own, you and me -
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be,
You want to marry me, we'll marry,
We'll marry.

Great voice but one ugly women. She could swallow a watermelon.
At least she is a tad intelligent...

Exactly!! I was in 7th or 8th grade when that album cover came out. I liked it then and I like it now.
BTW Carly was a babe and a killer singer. Whoever posted that she was ugly needs to clean their glasses.
I always admired her, because she is beautiful, and she has a great voice, her music, and now as a fellow BC survivor. She writes children's books, too.
