FISHER FINDS EX SIMON'S SONGS 'TRIPPY'

Story Image


Saturday November 28,2009

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?"
