Carly Simon

Recommended Posts

can't believe there is not one thread on Carly

 

Her first (and best) from 1971 painting a sighing what else can one do because that is what is expected

poetic and painting a word picture just like Lana  (who through her own life painted the same word pictures)

 

That's the Way I've Always Thought it should be

 

sit back, close your eyes and listen to the words

 

 


Lana is our modern day Edith Piaf. Totally unique. a mixture of Brian WIlson Roy Orbison, Leonard Cohen, Gram Parsons, Elton & Bernie. Born to Die/Paradise is comparable to Elton's Captain Fantastic. All the records need to be listened whole. Waiting for a box set vinyl of all 400 songs not on any lp

Lana should do a medley/duet with Carly Simon

That's the way I always heard it should be / Video Games (Born to Die)

 

 

the resignation of not being able to fulfill one's own dreams

©Jacob Brackman Music based on an old classical theme

That's the way I always heard it should be" 1971

the final verse-

 

You say we can keep our love alive
Babe all I know is what I see
The couples cling and claw
And drown in love's debris
You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds
But soon you'll cage me on your shelf
I'll never learn to be just me first
By myself
