"Vengeance" is a song written and performed by American singer-songwriter Carly Simon. Produced by Arif Mardin, the song served as the lead single from Simon's eighth studio album, Spy (1979).
Simon made a music video for the song, and she became the second female solo artist to be featured on MTV's first day of the air. MTV later used a clip from the video in a commercial to entice viewers to get stereo sound on their Television sets. The promotional clip was also chosen by Pioneer Electronics to be part of their first demo disc for its then-new LaserDisc player.
