Morning Aural: Carly Simon
"Let the River Run"

We realize a significant number of Queerty readers are slackers, unemployed or general layabouts. This morning, however, we thought we'd dig into the past for a special dedication to all you working girls out there who read Queerty on company time. Keep on keepin' on, guys!

Oh, how I missed big hair, big shoulder pads and the days when Harrison Ford was still super hot.

Great song by Carly Simon. She won a Grammy, a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for that one. She wanted a jungle beat because she thought NYC was sort of like a jungle and she wanted that to come through in the song. She has a beautiful new album out, Into White, with some great covers of new material, traditional standards and some lulabyes. Check it out. Her voice has deepened to a smokey contralto. Quite beautiful and unique.
