She was 27 when she performed in that concert…..It’s was real, it was visceral, it was pure, no pretense, authentic!! I got chills watching this….. one spot, no choreographed dance troops, no sequences, real instruments, no acrobatics and revolving stages and platforms, no auto tune (not needed), and yet the audience was transfixed, completely involved in the performance…..

Yeah, apparently, a song about the kind of social situation, the upper class life that Carly herself grew up in. The beautiful young debutante daughters who went to all the prestigious colleges mostly to look for young, potentially rich husbands coming out into Society, launched by their families. So many, like the girl in the song, dreaded it, but that was the way it was, so she resigned herself to it.

This song hits me where I live every time I listen to it. I was 15 when this beautiful song was released and I was introduced to the angelic tones of Carly Simon. Her stunning beauty, her youth, her passion epitomize a time that I feel blessed to have lived through and continue to hold with heartfelt fondness. Underneath the flawless performance is what the song has to say about life - not just married life. The lump in my throat is genuine. The true mastery of this song and performance still resonates more than 50 years later. Thank you so much, Carly…

It wasn’t until James Taylor introduced her as his wife that we realized who she was and that we were sitting next to a rising star. That really made our evening being that close to her. She had the greatest smile! The music in the 70’ s were the best! Nothing today compares to the 70’s.

I hear this song and it makes me think of my three divorces - and I feel like crying,

Yes! So exquisite! I believe it's written in a minor key, which gives it that delicious bittersweet edge.

Wow, it's one of those poignant, heavy, meaningful songs that is so heartfelt it makes your head spin. Like a Bridge Over Troubled Water type song.

This song is a haunting reminder of how things were when I was a kid growing up...... I can listen to this a million times and i still shed a tear...... every damn time......

She breezed in and dropped this great performance - all while fighting crippling stage fright. And singing such a quiet, intimate song, to a huge crowd, is quite the task! I read a book on Carly, Joni, and Carole. In the end, Carly appeared to be the most normal of the bunch, by far!

velocità sadly the 70's will never be repeated. I was lucky to be youth during those times. I sit back on quiet days now kids griwn and I reflect with smile and tears on my face rendering!!!
