Thread Name: 'You're so vain' (Carly Simon)
Subject: RE: 'You're so vain' (Carly Simon)
I don't think Carly Simon is the least bit bitter about her numerous love affairs. She seems to have enjoyed them all quite a bit. That doesn't mean she can't write an ironical song about one. She's not much inclined toward bitterness, I've noticed.

If you want really bitter songs about love affairs, check out Bob Dylan or Alanis Morissette or any number of songs by various loud longhaired rock bands.
