 | FISHER FINDS EX SIMON´S SONGS ´TRIPPY´CARRIE FISHER is baffled by her ex-husband PAUL SIMON´s songs about their failed marriage - insisting it´s "trippy" to hear the rocker complain about what went wrong.
The Star Wars actress, who was married to the rocker for less than a year before they split in 1984, is referenced in a string of songs he recorded during their tumultuous union - including Hearts And Bones, Graceland, She Moves On and Allergies.
Decades later Fisher admits she still struggles to understand his bizarre musical interpretations of their union.
She says, "It is kind of trippy 15, 20 years down the line to turn on the radio and hear yourself complained about in song."
Reciting lyrics from Allergies, she laughs, "(He says), ´My heart is allergic to the women I Love and it´s changing the shape of my face...´ Is that flattering?"
============================
Sometimes I wonder - will Carrie ever overcome about the end of this relationship? 25 years later?

 | Carrie dedicates a chapter to this very subject in ´Wishful Drinking´. I recommend that everyone read it :-)

 | That clip fails to mention that Paul and Carrie´s relationship was off and on over 12 years even though they were only married a short time.
Her show and her book are extremely funny, and she really doesn´t say anything bad about Paul. She pretty much takes most of the blame on herself.

 | When you read her book Surrender The Pink, she´s not very kind with the male character who´s supposed to be Paul ;-) |

 | Whishful Drinking ? Yawn...
I regret having read this.
But on the whole, she seems very happy and proud of having been part of Simon´s songs. |

| As she said : "If you have a chance to have Paul Simon write a song about you, do it - he is brilliant at it". That is an understatement if I ever heard one. |
