President Kennedy's daughter, Caroline Kennedy, celebrated her 50th birthday recently. And Neil Diamond performed the song " Sweet Caroline" for her birthday party via satellite. That's also when he told her that the song was actually written about her, 40 years ago when he saw a photo of her as a little girl, glamorously dressed up and standing next to her pony. The song became a bestselling hit and was the most important song of his career.
