You're so Vain è un brano scritto e interpretato da Carly Simon, contenuto nell'album No Secrets pubblicato nel 1972. Terzo disco di inediti per la cantautrice di New York, si rivela il suo primo vero successo proiettandola tra le protagonisti della scena musicale internazionale, al punto che rimase per ben cinque settimane in cima alla Billboard 200. La canzone è sicuramente la principale artefice di tale successo e, ancora oggi, resta la sua hit più riuscita; il testo è dedicato ad un suo vecchio amore che lei stessa definisce come "estremamente vanitoso".
