One of the greatest pop singers. Who can forget Mockingbird? She is on my iTunes playlist and won't age for me...
 

I read somewhere that she once had a stuttering problem. She got over it by singing everything she had to say.
 
She wrote a book a little while back and talked about it and many other things, quite a story and quite a life!
 
Sounds interesting, I'll try to find the book in our library. I like Carly now, but didn't care much back in her heyday, when I was too busy to pay attention, except for ' Your So Vain' constantly playing on the radio.
 
Always liked Carly (btw her father is/was the Simon of Simon & Schuster Publishing). But nobody sings “Mockingbird” like Charles & Inez Foxx (1963). Carly and her ex James Taylor recorded the remake in 1973.
 
Here is one that was never popular, but I always liked it---better than some of her hits. The Itsy-bitsy part is not so great, but the tallest boy and tallest girl, among the kids, are hers with James Taylor. The boy looks just like him. Love the socks and sneakers, too. Btw, I think she is 5'10" tall. (trivia)
