[@Stephen17249]

If you've ever suffered depression you will truly understand this song . It's a tribute to Brian that he could write this song with such veracity !

[@pattyhaley9594]

One of Peter Cetera's favorite Beach Boys song too.

Every day, since Brian was 20 or so. Didn't know what it was, until 2000. Funny, this song sung to me, since I first heard it. Like Brian, I didn't have my own room. steve

What a blessing to see Carly singing this song and a toast to the lucky people who got to see this in person. Carly had had her own struggles with mental health issues, one of which was (for a time) stage fright. So, it great to see her on stage with the likes of legendary song writer Jimmy Webb and harmonic friend David Crosby paying tribute to the AMAZING Brian Wilson. What a gift this is!

[@bearballin]

RIP David... 🙏

[@toddanderson1506]

RIP David. Thanks for sharing your golden voive with the world. Great harmony with Carly and Jimmy.

[@diannespalding6542]

Love that song. And Carly Simon has a voice as smooth as butter. A treat to listen to!

[@tectorama]

What an enormous talent Brian Wilson was, and still is. Nobody like him around today.

[@garyhinman1332]

This song really showcases what a beautiful voice Carly has. Excellent harmonies from David and Jimmy. One of Brian's best!

[@gupman62]

No Sir...She is a Lady...With much class and talent. Growing up in the rock and roll era...and keeping her nose clean..speaks volumes for this legend. Thanks Carly...

[@cpcattin]

20 years ago. Great harmony ! I wish to say with authority, Jimmy Webb. is a really good human being. My mom (96) and I enjoyed Jimmys show in Seattle a while back. after the show mom and I went back to say hello to Jimmy. My mom was enamored with Jimmy who spoke about his upbringing in Oklahoma not far from where my recently deceased father was born. Jimmy automatically gave my mom a big bear hug. What a complete package of a talented man.

[@robertthompson5908]

Wow, just wow. One of the most beautiful songs the BB’s did, and this rendition was amazing.

[@MrChrissy1r]

Carly Simon is Tops, just brilliant,, love her to bits!

[@jjs490]

Carly Simon wow what a voice, I love her as I'm sure millions of people do, lol.

[@markwalls9072]

Wow is this beautiful. One of Brian Wilson's greatest compositions. I've even heard it called Brian's personal anthem. Carly, David, and Jimmy sound amazing.

[@WMUH1]

A great version of this song. When someone wonders why people like Carly Simon so much as a singer, I just point them to this song. Incredible.

[@twadicusable]

No one can sing like Carly! What a voice❤️

[@cottonceena]

Carly..... Timeless beauty and talent. LOVE her!

[@rosangelaleite9437]

Sempre!!

[@phillipthomas8278]

OMG I was 8th row from the stage. Such a child at 28 and I was mesmerized by this concert. It's stayed with me almost 20 yrs and I love each time I see a clip from the concert.

[@lanes58]

David Crosby once said, “The first time I heard “ In My Room” I thought, I might as well burn my guitar”.

[@fredgien]

lanes58 Happy he didn’t!

[@richardlee1972]

It's such a great song. That's why.

[@waynejones205]

No need for That, it's just the Human Voice is the finest instrument in History. And like the Guitar, when played properly!!

[@bjs001001]

WOW, what a great tribute to the greatest four part harmony band of all time, in my opinion of course.

[@irishpogi]

Jimmy Webb wrote so many great tunes! I love this version of "In My Room!" Thanks Carly, Jim, and David.

[@christophers.8553]

But Jimmy Web had nothing to do with the writing of this song...

[@irishpogi]

@@christophers.8553 That I know.

[@sydIRISH]

I'm not a huge Beach Boys fan, but it's VERY hard to not like this song. Anybody and everybody can relate to it. My dad is a HUGE CSN&Y fan, so I was always hearing them. "Deja Vu" is a brilliant album. I wasn't born 'til the 80's, so all this all was before my time, but the music from that era blows anything since out of the water. I'm really jealous of you Baby Boomers.

[@Swampzoid]

Bravo. Carly is top notch.

[@bearballin]

I had to come here upon hearing the news of David's passing. One of my favorite performances by two of my favorite hippies. Love you both forever ❤

[@roberthouser789]

A favorite Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys favorite song of my teenage years rendered beautifully by Carly, David, and Jimmy.

[@norwegianwildass]

I love your version of this song! Miss Simon you are so beautiful! Thanks for posting...

[@SailorGal7353]

Their voices blend together beautifully. Great job folks....

[@flowerdoodle2438]

I disagree. I think Carly might be ruining the blend.

[@chrismahfouz7709]

[@reggiewandling2845]

spot on!

[@moboutmen]

How beautiful was THAT ?!?

[@annwags]

So sad Carl wasn't around. Lovely version. Thanks!

[@derekec]

Haha..was going to comment on the beauty of the cover till I got that glimpse of Carly's cover, or lack of it, at the end...my heart skipped a beat. Truly outstanding harmonies.

[@richardosullivan8102]

Timeless, wonderful version. Paying homeage to the original.

[@2Hearts3]

It's wonderful to see and hear the love, appreciation, and respect that other big names in rock have for Brian Wilson, and rightly so. 👏🎶♥️

[@rvbvbaservices]

One of the best Beach Boys songs ever... I wish kids all over the world have their own room for having their dreams for a future alive:)

[@andywolf5403]

Crosby has such a great voice. He is the reigning hippie godfather and I love him for that.

[@michaelb8809]

I love the way he can harmonize. Very few can do it as well as DC

[@DJL-ms5xl]

Michael B totally agree

[@richzamperini]

Andy Wolf A great voice is felt, not heard. Croz is only noticed when he's NOT singing. The sweetest blend of anyone I've ever heard...

[@janfromnycsavesmoney8723]

Yes!

Carly rules

[@louswire]

Dayum... I been crushin on Carly since the late 60's... this song is even in my key... nothing to hate here... I just love the blend of voices on this track.

[@Drdms62]

"In my Room" like it has never been sung before!!! Carly and some old timers doing some great harmony. DMS

[@tomcampbell9645]

It is fast becoming my favorite Beach Boys song. Brian Wilson nailed the teenage experience with this piece. These three did a great job, but the original by the Boys, was and is an absolute masterpiece !!

[@b3j8]

That's one famous trio! Jimmy Webb wrote some wonderful music. The other 2 speak for themselves!

[@Music_is_Breathing]

This song saw me through a very tough period in my life. Thank you, Brian Wilson!!!!

[@neilwilliams929]

1mikera Ta 1mikera. I was just going to look this up to see who first sang it aswell who wrote ...you save me the trouble ...I'll now go and listen to the original version from the beach boys

[@bufb]

Perfect song

[@alpelletier6199]

For all those that go through periods of depression and anxiety, this is perfectly true!! What a great song by 3 great artists.

[@jerryhumphries7475]

There isn't a person who has not gone thru a period of depression at some time or other . You can let it break you down and tare you apart or you can choose to climb out of it and live life. We all go thru deep valleys at some point in our lives, I choose to climb to the mountain top !!!!!

Three legends absolutely nailing a great song. Fantastic!

[@austinteutsch]

Introduced by the great actor/writer Chazz Palmenteri. Crosby is s genius. Simon is still fine. And Jimmy Webb, one of the greatest songwriters in pop/rock history. Great idea to put these three together. The they sing one of the best songs ever written.

[@jimcee830]

Beautifully done

[@derekstocker6661]

Phenomenal performance of this fabulous song, great backing also. So well done by all. Thanks so much for this!

[@ryanaiden]

David Crosby is the only one not fighting for the spotlight or trying to sing the loudest. He knows harmony.

[@charliekucharski2079]

Super cool, plus I don't think I ever heard the super songwriter Jimmy Webb sing before. Nice harmony.

[@priscillawilson2634]

She has an awesome voice!

[@deckardcanine]

It makes sense that Carly would cover this in addition to "I Only Have Eyes for You." Those songs sometimes run together in my head.

[@jimmig8542]

NEVER BEEN A MORE THRUTHFUL SONG EVER WRITTEN.........

[@victorberquez3254]

I love this version. The harmonies are just brilliant, and so soothing. Victor from Australia

[@GuiitarBilly]

Wonderful performance of a great Brian Wilson/Beach Boys tune. For those asking, this tune was an early period Beach Boys hit. Their 'hits years' were approx 1962 to 1967. 'In My Room' appeared on their second album "Surfer Girl" in 1963 and was an early indicator of Brian's musical genius with chords and vocal harmonies. "Endless Summer" came out in the early 1970s and introduced a new generation of fans to Beach Boys magic...it continues to do so. If i can only have on BBs album, that's it.

[@bradcookson5959]

Nice version and performance. Written by one of Americas greatest song writers Brian Wilson!

[@leighfrasier2814]

It was actually written by Brian and Gary Usher

[@bobphillips3222]

Wow! What a line up!

[@jrfields321]

What a wonderful harmony!

[@lynnlobliner3933]

What a totally interesting trio. I do not think this song should be relegated only to those who suffer depression. Many of us as teens who were fortunate enough to have our own rooms understood it on that level. We played the radio stations we wanted to hear, or the LPs (I'm old) or cassettes or CDs we loved (that our parents didn't want to hear), did our homework, read, shut out the noises of the rest of the house. We didn't even need to have our own TV or phone, but that would be an added luxury.

[@Stephen17249]

While the song is about being alone in a room, the lyrics suggest a contemplative state of mind, not exclusively relegated to depressive thoughts, but “ all my worries and my woes” suggest a troubled state of mind. It is not a cheerful song. Wallowing in sadness is something that music can accommodate. It’s in the power of music to induce all sorts of emotional states.

[@donnastitz1497]

FANTASTIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TATOIANENTERPRISES]

As a scared kid growing up in a dysfunctional family, I would listen to this song alone in my darkened room dreaming of better times to come.

[@larrycass3198]

Defiantly one of Brian’s Best Written Song’s! RIP Brian because your music will always live on… 💙
