I'm not ashamed to say but I'm in tears here ,what a simply beautiful artist Karen carpenter was and we as mere mortals could look at her with immense admiration for blessing our ears with such music.
Karen Carpenter was and still is the best female vocalist ever. Not saying there aren't great female singers today. But Karen Carpenter is a legend. She is the BEST. Her voice makes you feel the song. RIP Karen, you are still on top. 2022
This is my favorite cover of this beautiful Leon Russell song. Karen Carpenter was the most incredible singer, ever. This song makes me cry every time I hear it. ❤️😥
Karen's voice has no match. Natural born talent steered by Richard's compositions. 'And when my life is over . . . I was singing this song for you. . .' Bravo. Just plain simple beautiful music that carries me through each day. Love you Karen.
Unparalleled voice. She must have been under so much pressure, stress, and strain. She accomplished so much in her relative short life. I didn't know her but I'm still grieving over her passing and the way it happened. 😢
Richard's arrangements gave the Carpenter's that magical sound and framed his sister's voice perfectly. He never really got the credit he deserved. He recognized Karen's voice and forced her out front. She only ever wanted to be a drummer but Richard saw where she needed to be.
Thanks to that, he increased her anxiety and self hatred. She could sing, just as well, from behind the drums . Where she felt safe and happy! His controlling, in her musical and private life, and their mother's rejection of Karen (in preference for Richard) triggered the Anorexia Nervosa that killed her. Yea, thanks Richard...
@@jacqueline8559I kind of agree with you about the mother, but Richard made the only possible decision when convincing Karen that she had to be front and center once they became stars. It wasn't going to work with her singing and drumming while performing songs such as this.
Unearthly tone and ability she had to reach deep inside of you and own your heart. All backdropped with the sad story of her leaving us at her young age, in the peak of youth and success !
Miss Carpenter will always have a place in my heart ❤️ 💙 💜 forever . Her rich, beautiful, warm, sincere heart felt performances I'll remember fondly through my entire existence on this earth 🌎 💖 ♥️.
A beautiful woman with a beautiful voice singing a beautiful song... mankind can lay claim to no creation, be it art or artifice that can rival that for natural beauty.
I hope before to leave this life, have the opportunity to say to my dear friends and mother "I love you in a place where there's no space and time, I love you for in my life, you are a friend of mine. And when my life is over, remember when we were together"
The lyrics are so beautifully written! Thank you Leon Russell for your gift, and Karen Carpenter for her amazing performance and interpretation. I totally get immersed in the voice and lyrics. ❤️
I love u in a place where there’s no space or time.. i love u for in my life u are a friend of mine.. and when my life is over, remember when we were together. We were alone and I was singing this song for u..
As a young Lad growing in Asturias Cebu esp hischool days @jayme moncado academy it refreshes my willbeing upon hearing dis song cuz it really reminds me a girl i cherish most...cant express my feeling towards her cuz one of his suitors is my bestfriend
Yes very romantic lyrics there. I find it to be sadly ironic that for all of the beautiful and romantic love ballads that KC graced the world with that she never found anyone to truly love her.
Oh my god 😭 what planet HAVE I been living under?😢I never ever knew Karen C covered this song....😢 here it is mid-july 2024 and I am just finding out and hearing her version for the very first time its very very pretty ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Que linda gravação, desta maravilhosa música e cantora! Que versão amorosa e delicada! Parece um anjo cantando. Parabéns ao Carpenters, pela belíssima apresentação!👏👏👏🤩🤗❤️
Here here i agree Karen sang this very beautiful this song indeed I just wish Karen loved herself the same way as she sings this song it's sad Karen left us that way I so miss her deeply 😭💖
Song for You / Lyrics I've been so many places in my life and time I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhymes I've acted out my life in stages With ten thousand people watching But we're alone now And I'm singing this song to you I know your image of me Is what I hoped to be I treated you unkindly But darling, can't you see? There's no one more important to me Baby, can't you see through me? 'Cause we're alone now And I'm singing this song to you You taught me precious secrets Of a true love withholding nothing You came out in front when I was hiding Now I'm so much better And if my words don't come together Listen to the melody 'Cause my love is in there hiding I love you in a place Where there's no space or time I love you for my life You're a friend of mine And when my life is over Remember when we were together We were alone And I was singing this song to you I love you in a place Where there's no space or time I love you for my life You're a friend of mine And when my life is over Remember when we were together We were alone And I was singing this song to you We were alone And I was singing this song to you We were alone And I was singing this song, mm Singing this song to you
