DEF: Carly Simon “Jesse”
New York City-born singer Carly Simon enjoyed her greatest success on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart during the 1970s, when she scored five Top 10 hits. In the 1980s, her biggest hit was her very first hit of the decade. Exactly 35 years ago, that song — “Jesse” — climbed to a peak position of number 11, where it would spend two weeks. Today, Carly Simon’s “Jesse” is the Daily Eighties Flashback.
