"It'south Too Tardily" is a song from Carole King's 1971 album Tapestry. Toni Stern wrote the lyrics and King wrote the music. It was released every bit a unmarried in April 1971 and reached number ane on the Billboard Hot 100 and Adult Contemporary charts. Sales were later gilt-certified past the RIAA. Billboard ranked "Information technology's Too Belatedly" and its fellow A-side, "I Feel the Earth Move", as the No. 3 record for 1971.

Music and lyrics [edit]

The lyrics describe the clean-living end of a loving relationship.[1] Music critic Dave Marsh saw implicit feminism considering the woman left the man.[2] Marsh also remarked on the maturity of the theme.[2] Music critic Robert Christgau wrote that "if there's a truer song about breaking up than 'It'southward Too Late,' the world (or at least AM radio) isn't fix for it."[3] Marsh described the melody as Tin can Pan Aisle and the organization every bit a cross betwixt low-cal jazz and "L.A. studio craftsmanship."[2] Rolling Stone remarked that King'south "warm, earnest singing" on the song brought out the song'due south sadness.[four] According to author James Perone, the experience of the song is enhanced by the instrumental work of Danny Kortchmar on guitar, Curtis Amy on saxophone and Male monarch on pianoforte.[one] Kortchmar and Amy each take an instrumental solo.[1]

The sadness of the song is emphasized past its small-scale key.[five] Greenbacks Box described the song as "a sensitive carol with a strong stone under-shell."[6] Perone pointed out several melodic techniques used by King to help make the vocal a hit. She builds the melody out of syncopated rhythmic motifs which are modified and combined over the grade of the song, in dissimilarity to other songs' ordinarily repeated rhythmic phrases.[1] Perone also thought that she fabricated the melody memorable past repeating the highest note several times earlier descending to the tonic.[1] This marks the highest and lowest notes in the listener's ear, aiding recognition.[1] An important emotional element of the tune is that rather than resolving on the tonic chord at the end, as most songs do, "Information technology's Also Belatedly" ends on the mediant chord, which is closely related to the tonic (being its relative major) just leaves a sense of inconclusiveness.[i] This contrasts with the lyrics, which imply that the singer has fully accepted the end of the relationship.[1]

Toni Stern told author Sheila Weller that she wrote the lyrics in a single twenty-four hours, afterwards her love affair with James Taylor ended.[vii] [viii] The recording won a Grammy Award for Record of the Year in 1972, and the song is included in Rolling Rock's 500 Greatest Songs of All Fourth dimension.
