Right-Click to Save    Actually, I’m stuck in the 60’s, but 70’s makes me sound younger.  But from 1975 to 1979 I was in a “wedding band” (of sorts) and I’m pretty certain we did this song.  There are people who can set me straight on this, but if we didn’t do it… we should have.  We had a fabulous “chick singer” who would have more than nailed “You’re So Vain” by Carly Simon.  But I digress…

Fans of Carly have always wondered who the song was about.  Personally, I suspected it was Warren Beatty, but no one knew for sure… except Carly, of course.  I started this little article 2 days ago with the intent of revealing Beatty as the culprit.  Doncha’ know this morning I read in the paper that Carly is now telling all… and it’s (yep) Warren Beatty.  What a coincidence, huh?  Thanks a lot, Carly.  Steal my thunder, why don’t you.

Anyway, this would be a great song in your repertoire if it’s not already there.  An interesting aside…. Carly confirmed Warren was the second verse, but is not telling who the rest of the song is about (clever lady – keep the mystery flowing).  Despite her explanation that only a part of the song is Beatty, she said, “Warren thinks the whole thing is about him”.   What a guy….
