I’m in the midst of listening to “Boys in the Trees” audio book narrated by Carly herself. Just finished Chapter 9 and I love peaking into classic home movies of her, Joey, Lucy and their Mother. R.I.P. to Joey (Joanna) and Lucy Simon. 2 very lovely, talented ladies that passed last week. My heart goes out to sweet Carly. I can’t fathom losing both of my older sisters within a day of each other. 😢❤

I am just so amazed to find this incredible gem. What a journalistically fantastically put together piece. You could never ever know about the whole Simon family save for one wonderful person putting it on youtube for you to discover and feast in. Amazing. In different interviews of Carly Simon and things I've read I always wondered about the Simon Sisters. And now I get to hear them. And it is so wonderful to get the context of Carly Simon - seeing her childhood life. And the three sisters. Absolutely amazing. And what an elegant mother they had. Thank you so much for posting this wonderful clip.

Pretty strange to think that it’s been 40 years since this was filmed, and everybody is now twice as old as they were….including me! I was SO glad to hear them sing, “May the Lord Bless and Keep You” at the end. It made me wonder what church they went to. 😀 Life is short…

That is our family hymn. We always sing it when we are together. After my mother had her stroke, it really cut deep as we went outside to say goodbye to two carloads of loved siblings, all of us, mom and dad included, holding hands together in a huge circle in the yard, singing the hymn together, not knowing if it would be the last time. We couldn't finish the hymn. Too many tears. At the graveside service of my dad and two years later my mother, we were able to sing it with no stopping.

@@newlywedbeth : Wonderful story…thanks for sharing. “May the Lord Bless and Keep You” always reminds me of the big campus-wide gatherings at the college I went to. The whole crowd sang it together. It was so beautiful in 4 part harmony, sung a cappella. Always gave me chills to listen to it. For family gatherings (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter), we have always held hands before eating and sung The Doxology, instead of saying a more formal, spoken prayer (“Praise God, from whom all blessings flow”). It keeps a family close, and is great for young children to observe. 😀

Her musical Dr Zhivago - A New Musical played around Australia in 2011 and was the most exquisite piece of musical theatre I've ever witnessed. I was so enthralled, I saw it four times in three weeks! Such a gifted musician/singer - they all are. Thank you so much for sharing.

Money doesn't buy you happily ever after. Carly's love life has been anything but a fairy tale. James Taylor was addicted to heroin and unfaithful to Carly and emotionally disengaged from their marriage. All of his self-improvement came after the divorce. Then Carly married a social climber who used her for her access to other celebrities and hid a double life of homosexual affairs from her.
