She won't say for sure. Check her website.

I've heard Warren Beatty, it could be true.
I know who inspired the song "Anticipation" though.
She wrote it while waiting for Cat Stevens to come over and take her out on a date.

All those people saying it's Burt or Warren could be write but only she and one other person know. A columnist paid Carly to tell him who that song was about. She said that he could never ever tell who that song is about. I'm assuming she will sue him or simething like that if he does tell.

I don't think she's ever officially revealed it, but my guess based on 35 yrs of gossip is Warren Beatty.

Assuming that the song was written to entertain her audience, then it was written for her audience. As far as the target of the song is concerned, that is another topic.

She has never said. However, it is speculated that the song is about James Taylor.

It was about some unfamous guy that she was in love with. All those other guys mentioned just think it's about them.
