I moved to Fort Lauderdale when I was 25 yrs. from my home of NJ. We rented an apt. on Sunrise Blvd. and all of a sudden a ton of kids my age were moving in like crazy from all over the country and we all shared a balcony and all lived next door to each other. This was 1977/1978. I was taking down the big palm branches which had served as a Christmas tree for about 12 of us. One morning before work I was dragging them down to throw away and my friend Elaine was home and took a pic of me throwing it over the balcony. It was SO much fun! I knew this was a Very special time that I would Never forget! From inside apt. Elaine had the radio on really loud & Carly Simon came on w/her song "Anticipation". At the end were the words "we'll stay right here "CUZ THESE ARE THE GOOD OLD DAYS!" i GOT CHILLS AND KNEW FOR SURE I'D REMEMBER THAT EXACT TIME AS THE BEST I WOULD EVER HAVE!! I WAS RIGHT. I JUST FELT IT! If I ever heard that again in my lifetime i KNEW I would ALWAYS remember that exact moment during those two VERY SPECIAL years. AND to this Very day (I"M 70 now) I remember that exact moment of my life to Always be THE GOOD OLD DAYS!!!! SO SO SPECIAL!!! So thankful to have lived there in those times with the most amazing, FUNNIEST people!
What I love most about Carley is she called out Donald Trump, and said he was a disgusting pig of a man truly grotesque who smelled like human waste😂😂😂
76 yrs old here, I'll NEVER forget these words from the voice of an Angel, ever. Jesus, how Blessed am I? For whatever time is left, THESE ARE THE good old days. ❤❤
Bass player flubbed a couple of notes. Who cares. Live and very rare to hear a flat note or mistake. Ah the good old days. I always loved Carly. Great song writer and performer as well. Carole King was great too, but somehow, Carly had something extra.
Amazing talent. She was the absolute total package! Wrote her own songs, performed her own songs, played multiple instruments including this fabulous Guild 12-string guitar. It just doesn't get any better than this? Not to mention the fact that she was stunningly beautiful and a great personality.
The guitar strum started , then the words came out and the hair on the back of my neck stood up , I felt like i had just gone back to 1971, Those certainly were the good ol days.
@@raechelyndawn2580 yep i was 14 as well, you look back and wonder where have they gone , I have just celebrated my 40th wedding anniversary with a girl i met in 1974, still remember what she was wearing on the night, the good old days.
@@raechelyndawn2580 I also was 14... and less than a year later tragedy hit our family and childhood was over for me. The good old days indeed... Watching this, I can believe I am 63... and that this will shortly be 50 years ago...
One of Carly Simon's great songs. When I first heard it - in 1971 - I thought it must be an old standard. Amazing lyrics for a 25 year old ! ( I am 6 months younger than her ). It took me a few decades to appreciate the insights in those early 70's poems. "And I wonder if I'm really with you now Or just chasin' after some finer day" Blows my mind - as we used to say. "So I'll try and see into your eyes right now And stay right here 'cause these are the good old days" Yikes! Carly Simon is/was a master Singer-Songwriter.
Wow, the way you move, tilt of head, smiles, way you move, is so warm. Wouldn't need electricity living with you because you light up the room just walking in.
Her music got me through those teen years, and listening to each one takes me right back. I vividly remember listening to her albums in my bedroom on my record player. When her No Secrets album came out, we were so scandalized by her picture on the front braless, but in a good way! We thought she was so cool, and she was!! She still is, and always will be. I love you Carly!! ❤
I’m 71 years-old and still go to concerts. I don’t even take my phone with me. I’m there to see the artist and hear their music. I don’t care who knows I’m there or not. I go to the concert for ME!
Me too. I'm 69 and going to Rifflandia in Victoria next month. No scrolling for me. Would have loved to see Carly Simon in concert. Gorgeous voice and great talent.
She is fantastic. I've seen her in concert when I was about 11 with my sister who was 17 and vans full of friends. At Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh. That's when I was hooked on concerts of mass amounts of people who all got along even many many giant rock concerts thru the 70s early 80s. We were so lucky to have grown up with the best music ever. Peace
I agree 💯%!! In fact. ,b4 I saw your comment I had just mentioned that👍🤗 When ppl reminisce in a sad way ,I always remind em *So stay right here because THESE are the gooD oL days,🎵these arrre🎶the GooD oL daYS.!*🎵📻🎶☮️ 🌜🎵📻🎶✌️✨😃☮️🌛!!
I was born in 1959. Was a late bloomer. Can remember seeing Carly on TV around ‘70 or so. I didn’t understand what would be happening to me physically when this goddess would be singing but it was really noticeable. Her songs were among the most memorable of that time. Her beauty undeniable. Grateful to live in that time period, all that great music and beauty.
Sure put Old Donald Trump in his place when he tried to grab at her at a party, she said of old Donald that he was the most grotesque bloated discusting man she had ever met and that he stank of human waste ouch 😂😂😂
@@larrysmith2638 You're right, Larry, but honestly, as an amateur performer, that gives me encouragement to know that even the best of 'em can occasionally goof up! There's a video out there of Leo Kottke doing a seventies song called "Rings" (one of the relatively few songs on which he sings as well as plays), and he accidentally mixes verse two in with verse one; just smiles and keeps on going!
+Ken Nickels OH - They most certainly did - I know for certain that it was 8 figures - PLUS - she got/is getting paid $35 every time it was played on TV!!!!!! And the new bottle that is actually "upside down" with the squirt top - was a $13,000,000 invention paid to the inventor to give the patent to Heinz!!! Heinz has along - long - long record of very profitable years!!!!!!
As a young man, I could listen to Carly without seeing her and be enthralled. I could also look at her without hearing her and be enthralled. Combining them both was the ultimate. I would say she's one of god's most blessed, which is what makes her our blessing....
She suffered from crowd anxiety! Yet she was flawless. She is Beautiful and so talented! Thanks Helen for buying me this Album for Christmas way back when!
Fantastic! I have had a life long crush on Carly Simon. At 62, I'm not giving up yet on taking her out to dinner for a respectable date. I LOVE how the audiences back then were so respectful and into the performance. No smart phones taking videos at all. In many ways those were really the good old days....but today is a great time to be alive too.
Celebrating her golden anniversary for not just Anticipation in November, but her debut album too, "Carly Simon". I love these live versions. Carly is all legs in that gorgeous 5'10" frame!
God yes! Take away my cell phone, computer, all mellennials and snowflakes. Give me back roll-up windows and vinyl records. You can have your tech world. I'd be happy, very happy to retreat to the NORMAL world of my childhood.
You said it ! I miss those sacred beautiful days. Nothing can compare. I still think it could be a bad dream and that I am about to wake up. The art of music in this era....there simply is no comparison or ever will be.
strawberryseason its so damn sad. My grandson listens to 70s music due tothe fact there is no music today.. yes i would love to go back and do it again
It's great to see live performances of her early stuff, when we now know she was dealing with serious stage fright. Makes her performance here all the more courageous. What a fabulous singer, and a fabulous babe.
These were the good old days. This song started me loving her music. Don't know what happened with her and James Taylor but they seemed so right for each other. Like she said and it was true, "tomorrow we might not be together".
... I miss these "good old days" for sure! In '72 I was a young teen and already a dedicated Carly fan. I watched her career rise like a shining star--with every song, every album. She's always been one of the very best in my opinion.
The good old days are always when you're young because you remember the fun times. I'm 61 years old now and I have realized that a day can take forever, but the years fly by.
My God she's beautiful/ I mean when you see her perform, she has got to have one of the most sensual, and aesthetic human qualities I've ever seen. Simply outstanding! HM
Sometimes pop music expresses the most sublime ideas with absolute clarity and remarkable power. Carly Simon achieved that level of expression when she wrote: "And tomorrow, we might not be together/I'm no prophet, I don't know nature's ways/So I'll try, and see into your eyes right now/And stay right here, cuz these are the good old days." Be in the moment, take in the beauty, and revel in the love of others, because it doesn't last long.
1971-2024, 53 years flew by fast. I was 17 looking at the draft Army coming for me, 1972 entered the Navy. Brings back memories here for me. I retired from Fed service in early Jan 2016, enjoying the days with family and grandchildren now. I had a wonderful time last week at Kill Devil Hills OBX, boogie boarding, surf swimming, and fun with grandkids on the boogie boards too :)
I was 21 years old and my girlfriend Linda joy Jansen was 19 years old and we were in California when this song 🎵came out. And yes these are the good old days ❤❤
The good old days indeed.
Awwww, those were the "Good Old Days" I wanna go back to the 70's. Now.

Me too
We can never go back , and every dot should be “ the good old days “ … Every dot is good , some are just better than others .
Look I know times flies by and the past is over...but I can't believe this is over 50 years old.
Not dubbed, just her natural unadulterated voice and guitar. Pure magic.
AUTOTUNE ? ...who the hell needs that
plus all the reverb, EQ, etc., added at the mixing board.
@@richarddewilde8555 and expensive Mike's and the best sound men in the business
What I love most about Carley is she called out Donald Trump, and said he was a disgusting pig of a man truly grotesque who smelled like human waste😂😂😂
And barefoot. She’s awesome.
stopped by to see if it still gave me a chill.. yep
lol me too!
Dammit I miss those days…
Those were certainly the good old days.
Absolutely! We are/were the generation with the best music ever!
Those guys whistling at her when she walked on stage know a beautiful woman when they see one.
The good old days. I remember and miss them. The music eas amazing.
One of the most incredible voices of my generation. One of the few that were recognizable from the first note.
i EFFEN Agree
i AGREE!!!!!
So many back then.
Another one is Anne Murray!!!
She was RIGHT
Those were the good old day😢
50 Years ago...how is that possible ???
YOU GOT Me!! Scares me.
76 yrs old here, I'll NEVER forget these words from the voice of an Angel, ever. Jesus, how Blessed am I? For whatever time is left, THESE ARE THE good old days. ❤❤
I was 19 years old in 1971 and I'm so glad I grew up listening to really great artists like Carly. She just nailed!
I was 7 when I first heard this song on the radio and my Mom singing with the radio. Memories awesome.
Bass player flubbed a couple of notes. Who cares. Live and very rare to hear a flat note or mistake.
Ah the good old days. I always loved Carly. Great song writer and performer as well. Carole King was great too, but somehow, Carly had something extra.

This was written whilst waiting for cat Stevens to turn up for their date!! He is arguably one of the greatest singer/songwiters of pit time too
Exactly, I wonder why so many people don't like Taylor Swift who is doing the same thing. They don't have to like the music but why that much hate?
The guitar strum started , then the words came out and the hair on the back of my neck stood up , I felt like i had just gone back to 1971, Those certainly were the good ol days.

Carly Simon is/was a master Singer-Songwriter.
Agreed, and even more incredible to realize Carly was just 25 here.. such confidence on stage.
Klass imagine
She was 28
Born in June 1943
I love her in 2023 ❤ She. Is such an outstanding artist ! ❤🎉🎼🎼🎼🎼

Agree I'm 69 this yr. 4/29/2024
Me too. I'm 69 and going to Rifflandia in Victoria next month. No scrolling for me. Would have loved to see Carly Simon in concert. Gorgeous voice and great talent.
She is one of the best musicians of all time. I am glad I was raised during this time.
Man,what a beautiful woman,and vocalist.
And songwriter. She wrote this!
LONG BEAUTIFUL HAIR, PRETTY FACE, SMILE, AND GREAT OUTFIT. YUP, THEY WERE DEFINITELY THE SUPER 70'S. DAMN, THOSE WERE THE GOOD OLD DAYS!!.
These really were the good ol days
There are so few recording artists that sound as great live as they do in a recording session. Carly is one of the best.
Back at you! I wish it were the 70's again. A great period of time, awesome music and a great period!!
Can’t believe this is over 50 years ago
What a voice energy and enthusiasm

Those legs, that smile, the song ! Wow !
Beautiful Woman With a Fantastic Voice

Great, passionate performance
"These are the good old days." Such a classic line. Love this performance.

We are the same age

This is what happens when you hear a beautiful voice and an interesting lyricist come together... just a wonderful song
I just like her style, she is real
My God, so beautiful in vocals and handling a 12 string.
Nice to see her so happy!
To those of us who found peace and meaning in the music, please work hard to not let the dream die. We must keep Hope alive...
I've 'Goose Bumps' for the last 50 years every time I hear this song; remarkable!
Hard to believe that Carly suffered from performance anxiety. She appears so relaxed and at ease in this performance. and what a beauty!!
Smoking some Pot probably for some Concentration??

I love her!!! so much talent. nothing altering her voice....just a songwriter and her guitar...with unbridled talent!
she was so beautiful

What a powerful voice. She’s so beautiful!!
She's a big Woman, powerful singer.
11 years old, permanently engraved in my brain....the good old days
Love Carly. Her music stands the test of time. The 70's sound is such a comfort for me during these hard times. TY Carly!!!!!!!
I can't believe l was blessed to grow up to this type of music that became the soundtrack of my life.
These were the good old days. This song started me loving her music. Don't know what happened with her and James Taylor but they seemed so right for each other. Like she said and it was true, "tomorrow we might not be together".
Wish it was the 70's again.
It's said she wrote this Cat Stevens, not for Taylor.
@@dianneckcu right, and he wrote her "Sweet Scarlet", his most haunting song ever.
Carly still lives in 2021
... I miss these "good old days" for sure! In '72 I was a young teen and already a dedicated Carly fan. I watched her career rise like a shining star--with every song, every album. She's always been one of the very best in my opinion.
So very beautiful
great song, great performance, lucky audience
Such a great singer
.one of the best❤
Wow so true! Much difference than today's concerts and true appreciation for the performers 🙏
So beautiful
The good old days are always when you're young because you remember the fun times. I'm 61 years old now and I have realized that a day can take forever, but the years fly by.
What a beautiful woman with great talent.
Wow , rocking that 12 string guitar (!) what a Woman!
My God she's beautiful/ I mean when you see her perform, she has got to have one of the most sensual, and aesthetic human qualities I've ever seen. Simply outstanding!

When music was great, and musicians had talent!
There's still great music being made
truely one of the great talents of all time! Why don't they right songs like this anymore. Oh the seventies were great!
Makes me think of warm summer days as a kid with my mom having this on the record player. RIP Mom
aye ,,,, Carly miss you ,,,,,,, lots.,,,,,those were the good ole days...
What a great voice and such a beautiful women.
I have always loved Carly's music, but I never knew how incredibly beautiful she is.....

What an incredible generation! Carly, Carole, Joni, Joan, Janis (RIP)... and sorry if I am forgetting others!

She was right.... those were THE GOOD OLD DAYS!
I had such a major crush on her back in the 70’s. Kinda still do
Sometimes pop music expresses the most sublime ideas with absolute clarity and remarkable power. Carly Simon achieved that level of expression when she wrote: "And tomorrow, we might not be together/I'm no prophet, I don't know nature's ways/So I'll try, and see into your eyes right now/And stay right here, cuz these are the good old days." Be in the moment, take in the beauty, and revel in the love of others, because it doesn't last long.
Not long at all....
You were so very very right those were the good old days…
Amazing performance from July 2, 1971...The crowd and the world had not ever heard Anticipation before...This is the sheet!
So happy to connect with this song again
What a great performance No One does it better!!!!!
