Carole King (born February 9, 1942) is an American composer and singer-songwriter.
King's career began in the 1960s when she, along with her then husband Gerry Goffin, wrote more than two dozen chart hits for numerous artists, many of which have become standards. She has continued writing for other artists since then. King's success as a performer in her own right did not come until the 1970s, when she sang her own songs, accompanying herself on the piano, in a series of albums and concerts. After experiencing commercial disappointment with her debut album Writer, King scored her breakthrough with the album Tapestry, which topped the U.S. album chart for 15 weeks in 1971 and remained on the charts for more than six years.
In 2000 Billboard pop music researcher Joel Whitburn named King the most successful female songwriter of 1955–99 because she wrote or co-wrote 118 pop hits on the Billboard Hot 100. King wrote 61 hits that charted in the UK. In 2005 music historian Stuart Devoy found her the most successful female songwriter on the UK singles charts 1952–2005.

"It's Too Late" is a song from Carole King's 1971 album Tapestry. Toni Stern wrote the lyrics and King wrote the music. It was released as a single in April 1971 and reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Adult Contemporary charts. Sales were later certified Gold by the RIAA. Billboard ranked "It's Too Late" and its fellow A-side, "I Feel the Earth Move," as the No. 3 record for 1971.

Forget Me Not (EP)
Forget Me Not is a five track promotional album sampler by British pop singer-songwriter Lucie Silvas, released in 2000 (see 2000 in music) in the United Kingdom. Two versions of the sampler were released - one with artwork and one without.
Background
Silvas was signed to EMI Records in 2000 and released her debut single "It's Too Late" on June 17, 2000. It failed to create much interest, charting at only #62. Lucie was dropped from EMI before her debut album was released. However, two album samplers of the unreleased album, which was to be titled Forget Me Not, were in circulation. Each sampler contained the same four tracks ("Tonight", "Diggin' a Hole", "Forget Me Not" and the single "It's Too Late"). The fifth track differed between the two samplers. One sampler, with a picture of Lucie as shown in the infobox, contained the track "That's Why I Love You", but the other sampler, which had a blue cover with simply "Lucie Silvas" and "Album Sampler" written on it, had the song "Take Me Back" written on it. The second album sampler with the blue cover is considerably rarer, which explains why all of these songs are on sites such as YouTube, except "Take Me Back".
It's Too Late (Bobby Goldsboro song)
