Who the Fuck is Carole Bayer Sager

Okay, Zoomer.

Hussy rode on my coattails.

A classic, OP.

Keep your gob shut and learn.

Carole Bayer Sager is a 1970s / 1980s songwriter. She won recognition and awards for writing lyrics to some popular movie themes.

I think she wrote the music or lyrics from ARTHUR and ITS MY TURN and ICE CASTLES. I believe Carole Bayer Sager also wrote the # 1 pop hit THAT"S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR from some 1980s comedy. Carole Bayer Sager wrote the James Bond theme for THE SPY WHO LOVED ME.

I think she is almost an EGOT, I know she's won an Academy Award for one of those movie themes.

Isn't the musical THEY"RE PLAYING OUR SONG based on Carole Bayer Sager's experience as a female songwriter?

Forgettable stuff from a period full of forgettable music. Awkward phrasing like Arthur's Song (Burt played a role, of course).

She also invented aspirin.

Two points for that response R6.

Yes, they're playing our song is about her relationship with Marvin Hamlisch. She wrote lot of songs with Peter Allen, and also co-wrote Don't Cry Out Loud (with Allen), Midnight Blue, On My Own, and When I Need You, the latter of which was subject to a lawsuit because it bore a musical similarity to Leonard Cohen's Famous Blue Raincoat.

If it hadn't been for her, we wouldn't have had this moment.

she was third or fourth choice to play Harriet Tubman if our Julia didnt want the role
