    @Harry: Before Thriller and Dark Side of the Moon, "Tapestry" was the biggest selling album of all time. It came out in about 1971 or 72... and she'd been writing songs in the Brill Building for many years before that.

    But yeah, how time does fly.

    Concur with Harry and JohnBecker, time has truly gone by. A very talented and classy lady, with some timeless songs under her belt as well. Too bad she will be letting SMAP brutalize them.
