I never cared exactly who she wrote it about. What made the song a HIT was the fact that all of us could apply it to whoever WE wanted it to be about. It’s My Opinion that the majority of artists suffer from some form of vanity. It makes them keep on plodding along when the so called experts try their best to tear them down!!! ❤❤❤ The fact that she kept adding names to the list of who was it about speaks volumes about the validity of gossip. She used it to her advantage. Way to go Carly. Write a book,,, have it released upon your death,,, add the tag that this persons identity is FINALLY released within it and BOOM,,, Leave your family even richer than they already are.

Jesus @user-ho9zz7wi7v, talk about “never car(ing) exactly…”. Once you stated that, the rest is an EXTREMELY long winded justification for your lack of interest in Ms. Simon’s message. Honestly, I was done after your 1st sentence, “I never cared exactly who she wrote it about.” That’s that. You’ve made your point. Next! 🤔👍

Carly Simon never revealed keeping it a mystery who You're So Vain was about until recently, since 1972. I love all her songs. We thought the song was about Mick Jagger, but it was about Warren Beatty. The Anticipation has been makin me late keepin me waitin all these years. She's So Beautiful and has a beautiful voice.

Beatty was iconic. He was so bad that by error on his part, he even TRIED to pick up on me. There is no need to brag. He tried to pick up on EVERYONE. Even me. I was born local to all of all that garbage. I was physically there. He became engaged the week before to my favorite actress, Diane Keaton. I waved, indicating my ring finger, then my middle finger. I am a Keaton fan. I could not REPLACE Diane. That would be ridiculous. It just so happened to be in a certain place where he was. Nothing more.

she has "finally" told us who it was like a hundred times. I remember her telling Howard Stern in the 1990s. It's like if you did a story where Rupert Homes finally told us what drink his song "Escape" was about. Spoiler, it's pina coladas.

Facts we do know….🧐🤫 He walked into the party like he was walking onto a yacht His hat strategically dipped below one eye And the scarf it was apricot He had one eye in the mirror, as he watched himself gavotte…. And all the girls dreamed that they'd be his partner… And… she had him several years ago when she was still quite naive But , he said that they made such a pretty pair and that he would never leave… But he gave away the things he loved… And one of them was Carly😢 Just some dreams in her coffee …dreams in her coffee Then she hear he went up to Saratoga And his horse naturally won Then he flew his Learjet up to Nova Scotia To see the total eclipse of the sun Plus , he’s where he should be all the time And when he’s not… He’s with , some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend Wife of a close friend and He’s soo vain… Poor guy, probably thinks the song was about him…….

I think entitling a song as "You're So Vain" with the lyric following that being - "you 'probly' think this song is about you" - when in fact, it IS about that person, is more contradictory than any song I know of. And it blows my mind that I'm the only one who ever noticed this - in MY world. I'm sure I'm not the only one who ever noticed this EVER. I would even guess that Ms. Simon saw this contradiction (or question) when she was writing it and simply thought it to be good writing because it's "artistically ambiguous." No, it's a contradiction.
