😮This is absolutely the best song that Carly Simon came out with. This song was made in the 70's?! It will always be a classic song from Carly Simon.

Hard to believe this song is almost fifty years old-Still sounds great!

2023 is almost over but memories of the 70's 80's and 90's will always, always be playing all year long on my sound system throughout in every room in my house, garage, and in my backyard!🤗

I've been listening to this song for weeks now, I'm a teenager who loves listening to classics, this song is brilliant even more amazing than new songs. I actually heard this song in how to loose a guy in 10 days and it caught my attention. I'm probably talking too much but yeah, point is I love this song

Taylor's favorite part in this song-"I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee clouds" -She said in Vogue

After all this time... This song still holds some of the most epic lyrics... "You're where you should be all the time and when you're not you're with some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend..." And of course "You're so vain, you probly think this song is about you..." I mean how sweetly savage is that?!" For all of us girls who love too hard and love the wrong guy and had to pick themselves up after finding out who he really is and for all the guys still trying to figure out that these girls are where it's at.

@MojeZycieWSkrocie

@@cleetorres1351 Hi, if you're asking about the meaning of the whole song, my interpretation for it is that it's like a requiem for yourself. It's when you see a man for who he truly is: gaslighting, emotionally abusive. And or not available in the first place (like just having an affair with you). if you're talking about that first line specifically, "you're where you should be all the time", Nova Scotia (mentioned right before this line) is considered one of the places a person would spend the rest of their live at. It's a destination you'd settle in when you've accomplished your dreams. It's also very naturally beautiful and picturesque. So the singer is telling her man to stay in that place since it's so magical, metaphorically; i.e. you're too good to be true so you might as well stay in that magical realm, again, metaphorically. Because when the man is around, he's either getting in trouble or sleeping with a friend's wife which is even worse because he is cheating on his woman and also betraying his friend. I hope this helped.

@@cleetorres1351 my take is that this guy comes across as the full package... Money, looks, charm with an ego that even exceeds all that. He is also a master manipulator to the point his close friends trust him with their wives which seems to be a mistake on their part. He is so grandiose and suspicious that he is either with some underworld spy (which may or may not be an exaggeration or even a complete fabrication or not) or the wife of one of his "close friends" trying to get with them. So she's calling him out in the nicest way possible - sweetly savage like hey I may have believed you at first but now I know who you really are and I'm gonna warn everyone else about you too.

Great Music at the time, I listened to it as a teenager, until today, the listener, not the teen anymore. I was brought up with great music from great musicians, Carly Simon was one of them, thank You so much for a wonderful time.
