Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond Lyrics
"Sweet Caroline" is a soft rock song written and performed by American artist Neil Diamond and officially released as a single on September 16th, 1969. It reached #4 on the Billboard chart and eventually went platinum for sales of one million singles.
In the autumn of 1969, Diamond performed "Sweet Caroline" on several television shows. It later reached #8 on the UK singles chart in 1971. In his 2007 interview, Diamond revealed the inspiration for his song was John F. Kennedy's daughter, Caroline, who was eleven years old at the time it was released. Diamond sang the song to her at her 50th birthday celebration in 2007.
On December 21, 2011, in an interview on the CBS Early Show, Diamond said that a magazine cover photo of Caroline Kennedy as a young child on a horse with her parents in the background created an image in his mind, and the rest of the song came together about five years after seeing the picture.
On October 20, 2014, on the NBC Today show, Diamond confessed that the tune was actually a love song to his then wife Marsha, but he needed a three syllable name to fit the lyrics and picked Caroline as a substitute..He explained it
The song proved to be enduringly popular, and as of November 2014 has sold over 2 million digital downloads in the United States.
