You can tell that she was genuinely thrilled. Carly Simon is truly a classy artist.

Carly Simon was the first artist to won the three Top Awards with the same song : OSCAR , GRAMMY and GOLDEN GLOBE with "Let The River Run".

I can't believe Sammy Davis and Gregory Hines has passed on!!! RIP

So deserved, and Sigourney should have totally won for best supporting actress!

I totally agree, Genna Davis, a great actress, but what Sigourney did is magnificent, a well-made villain, she deserved the Oscar, plus she was also nominated for best actress, one at least would have won.

@@superyoutubemiranda9800 A little unfair to compare because Geena Davis was actually lead, and Siggy was supporting. Geena was incredible as Muriel and much better than William Hurt, whose character was insufferable. I would still nominate Kathleen Turner in the supporting category and also Kelly McGillis for "The Accused".

Ground breaking film. Women were no longer “secretaries” ,they became assistants and This song was perfect for the movie.

"Let The River Run" is a masterpiece!This song is a hymn. For me, it's a Manhattan symbol and a NY trademark. :)

One of The Greatest Movie Soundtracks, By Miss Carly Simon

Love this song... Love Carly Simon

Love Carly Simon, she so deserved to win.

she seems like such a super lady.

Love this song !!!! Forever one of the best !!!!!

Calling You is a masterpiece.

I love you Carly Simon ♡

Great win, although "Two Hearts" would've also been a worthy winner. However, where in the world is "If We Hold On Together" from THE LAND BEFORE TIME or any of the songs from OLIVER & COMPANY? Those are snubs that everyone overlooks, and the Oscars could've easily had 5 nominees that year.

They may have not had that many eligible songs that year, so that may be why. I agree on almost all accounts except it should've been Two Hearts instead of Let the River Run.

Too bad the songs "Love is my decision" from the movie Arthur 2, and "Why Should I Worry" from the movie Oliver And Company - were not nominated for an Oscar in a year where only 3 songs were nominated.

i agree they shouldve been nominated even Dudley Moore who presented the nominees for Best Costume Design with his 10 costar Bo Derek was there that year

who doesn’t love her?

This was from the dreadful Oscars show when Snow White danced with Rob Lowe to 'Proud Mary'. They only had 3 nominees that year for Best Original Song for some reason. None of these songs were performed on the show and they didn't even play a clip of the songs while announcing the nominees.

UGH! l love them all, you know? But three others like "Arthur 2," "Caddyshack 2" and "Vibes" - that didn't help my themes and interests anymore. I'm sorry but that's how l feel. Now I have my own life/ego about dozens of wonderful songs with colors, textures and images were kept everything together. That really moves with me all the way. It was a real sudden change of heart to do lots of singing in schools, classes and churches with such wonderful style and substance.

Calling You is a much better song. Unfortunately Bagdad Café was not strong enough of a movie to carry that song to a win.

I really love Carly Simon, but the other two nominated songs were better!!! Carly should have won for "Heartburn" (1986), but she wasn't even nominated!!!

Let The River Run, The New Jerusalem, even though the song was used for Working Girl, it's all a metaphor and has nothing to do with the movie.

This is completely incorrect. She literally wrote this after reading the entire script of the movie and it is a love letter to the city of New York. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Two Hearts should have easily won this.

Her song is superb, but she and her acceptance speech were pretty anticlimactic (was she drunk ?). Plus, she didn't even thank Mike Nichols. I mean, without the first shot of Working Girls, without that grandiose panorama of Manhattan, Let The River Run, no matter how brilliant it is, wouldn't have had the same impact.
