Carole you make me feel alive!!!! I LOVE YOU... Carole King(born February 9, 1942) is an American singer, songwriter, and pianist. She was most active as a singer during the first half of the 1970s, but she was a successful songwriter for considerably longer both before and after this period. Carole Klein (as she was then known) started out playing the piano and then moved on to singing, forming a vocal quartet called the Co-Sines at James Madison High School.She attended Queens College, where she was a classmate of Neil Sedaka, who dedicated "Oh, Carol", his first big hit, to her. She in turn wrote an answer song called "Oh Neil". While attending Queens College, King befriended Paul Simon and Gerry Goffin.Goffin and King soon formed a songwriting partnership, eventually marrying and having two daughters, Louise Goffin and Sherry Goffin Kondor, who also became singers. Working in the famous Brill Building, where chart-topping hits were churned out during the 1960s, the Goffin-King partnership first hit it big with "Will You Love Me Tomorrow". Recorded by The Shirelles, the song topped the charts in 1961; it was later covered by Dusty Springfield, Laura Branigan, Little Eva, Roberta Flack, and King herself. When Carole divorced Goffin and married Charles Larkey (of the Myddle Class). Moving to the West Coast, Larkey, King and Danny Kortchmar formed a group called The City, which released one album, Now That Everything's Been Said. She released a lot of albums but her 1971 album Tapestry is one of the best selling albums ever. She has won four Grammy: best album “Tapestryâ€, best song “You’ve got a friendâ€, best composition of the year “It’s too late†and as “best female interpreterâ€. In 1973, Carole King performed a free concert in New York City's Central Park and broke all previous records for such a concert with over 100,000 people attending. in 1983, King took a hiatus in Idaho, where she became an environmental activist."In 1996 a film loosely based on her life, Grace of My Heart, was released. In the film an aspiring singer, Denise Waverly/Edna Buxton, sacrifices her own singing career to write hit songs that launch the careers of other singers. Mirroring King's life, the film follows her from her first break, through the pain of rejection from the recording industry and a bad marriage, to her final triumph in realizing her dream to record her own hit album."King is very politically active in the United States Democratic Party. King launched her "Living Room Tour" (in a nod to her appearances in private homes during the Democratic primaries) on July 15, 2004, at the Auditorium Theatre (Chicago, Illinois). That show, along with the shows at the Greek Theatre (Los Angeles, California), and the Cape Cod Melody Tent (Hyannis, Massachusetts) were recorded live and released as The Living Room Tour album on July 12, 2005. The 2005 leg of "The Living Room Tour" kicked off on July 3, 2005, in Ontario, Canada. Carole King wraps up successful tour also in Australia and New Zeland in 2006 form November until December...
