FMM: Simon Says

Carly Simon is one of the most talented and creative singer/songwriters in my book.

She has that 1-2 punch of having that very beautiful and emotive voice, combined with mad songwriting skills. Her iconic hit "You're so Vain" is still one of my most favourite songs so far - both in terms of music and lyrics. It was just very picturesque and beautifully written, and I've featured that song in one of my FMMs before.

With a string of number 1 hits under her belt, and collaborations with some of the biggest names like James Taylor, it's a fact that when it comes to being a female singer/songwriter, she's unique and incomparable.

Which leads us to today's Friday Magic Madness song from 1977:


"Nobody does it better" from "The Spy Who Loved Me" is another one of her iconic hits. And while listening to it again and again, it's easy to see why.

Really, nobody does it better like Carly Simon.
