4. I could have sworn that I read a quote from Carly Simon
soon after the song came out denying that it was about Mick Jagger, and saying that it was about Cat Stevens. I wish I'd saved the article because I'm pretty sure it was in Rolling Stone.

7. Wikipedia says that only Carly Simon and Dick Ebersol know.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You%27re_So_Vain

Not even the fact that Deep Throat was revealed would make her give up who it is.

8. Mick Jagger sings backup on "You're So Vain"
So, I rather doubt it's about him. :-)

9. It so broke my heart to discover she and James Taylor were divorced!
I don't know why. Some people seem better as pairs than individually, and they were two such. Kind of like Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley.
