You know what to do - Carly Simon

Carly Elisabeth Simon was born on June 25, 1945. Her solo music career started in 1971 with the debut album 'Carly Simon', quickly followed by a second album entitled 'Anticipation'. She scored the biggest success of her career in 1972 with the song 'You're so vain'. Further hits were 'Nobody does it better' (taken from the James Bond movie 'The spy who loved me'), 'Coming around again' and the classic album 'Boys in the trees'.

'You know what to do' was released in 1983 and only made no. 36 in the UK, whereas it didn't even chart in the Netherlands. I liked the song a lot, though, and so I bought it six years later when the opportunity presented itself.

My collection: 7" single no. 897
Found: All that music, Leiden, June 23, 1989
Cost: 2 guilders
Tracks: 'You know what to do' / 'Orpheus'
