True it is an oxy-moron. Indeed, somebody did offer an obscene amount of $$ to Carly Simon to "fess up"..but all she did was say the song isn't about ex-husband James Taylor. Mine money is on it being Warren Beatty

Yeah I thought the woman who sang that song was defeating its purpose because she WAS singing a song about 'him'.

yeah, but no one ever discloses the name, then he would be vain in assuming it was about him... I know I never thought it was about me, how about you?
