The singers singing was compared...I don't think any of us actually think she sounds like an actual horse...just a snarky comparison.

I like her voice. It's distinct and assertive, hard to ignore. . . . and, in the song, it's the horse that naturally won.

. . . and, in the song, it's the horse that naturally won. Yep. I have a soft spot for songs that break the 4th wall. T-Bone Burnett tried the same thing in his song "The Strange Case of Frank Cash and the Morning Paper," but it didn't work quite as well.

The rumor has always been that the song was really about Jagger or Warren Beatty.

I've also heard Cat Stevens and James Taylor mentioned as possible 'targets' of the song.

Carly Simon actually wrote that song after her initial break up with James Taylor. They went on to patch things up and then break up again, about a thousand times after that!

I guess Carly's thematic heir would be Alannis Morrisette then.
Larry David built a whole episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm around trying to get Alannis to tell who she'd written "You Oughta' Know" in honor[sic] of.
