LOS ANGELES (Billboard) - Carole Bayer Sager and Carly Simon are writing together, Bayer Sager tells Billboard.
The two had a big hit with "Nobody Does It Better," which Simon sang for the 1977 James Bond film "The Spy Who Loved Me," but that song was written by Bayer Sager and Marvin Hamlisch.
The pair have written about six songs together, including two that Bayer Sager believes will appear in "My Little Black Book," a film starring Brittany Murphy and Kathy Bates.
One number for that soundtrack that surely will have tongues wagging is "Walk Away," the first song Bayer Sager has written with Burt Bacharach since their divorce in 1991.
"Carly and I have about six songs, so I'm trying to convince Carly to do her own record. She sounds so great, as good as ever," Bayer Sager says.
Other co-writers with Simon and Bayer Sager include Britney Spears choreographer Wade Robson, David Foster and Babyface.

When Brittany Murphy, one of the stars of My Little Black Book, was on the David Letterman show a few weeks ago, Paul Shaffer had the band play her on with Burt's (and Hal's) "My Little Red Book". I would imagine that only a small percentage of the viewer's got the reference, but I could have predicted it. Paul is an enormous fan of Burt's, too, after all. (What knowledgeable musician isn't???)
