Karen Carpenter, Linda Ronstadt, Olivia Newton-John, Helen Reddy,,,,Those girls back in the 70's could actually SING! No stupid stage shows, lip-synching, or dancers! GAG! Thank you to those who post these clips from a lost era. Carpenter was one of the best from that time and one of America's greatest vocalists ever. Such a pure distinctive voice and brilliant phrasing. No one can sing a sad song like Karen.
I also cry when I hear this song too. Karen Carpenter 💐💐 had such a beautiful voice and she was such a down-to-earth kind person. It is profoundly sad that Karen Carpenter died so young😢🖤🕯️. I was just a Kid when Karen Carpenter 💐💐 died on Feb 4th, 1983😢🕯️🖤. I just 🙏🙏 pray that there is a Heaven Karen Carpenter💐🌹 singing there 🙏🙏💛💛✨✨.
I miss you. My 17- year old died… helping another. She and her sister danced to your music while I smiled. So miss you and seeing them dance. My only daughter wants to marry to Close to You
God only had one choice to give someone the voice of an angel. He chose this beautiful person Karen carpenter. When I go to heaven I hope I hear her voice. To put me in peace.
I loved listening to The Carpenters back in my teenage years. Soft, beautiful, gentle, comforting tone of music. 🎵🎶 ❤️ I still love listening to Karen's gentle voice. 💕

"Carpenters - Rainy days and Mondays" Talkin' to myself and feelin' old Sometimes I'd like to quit Nothin' ever seems to fit Hangin' around Nothin' to do but frown Rainy days and Mondays always get me down What I've got they used to call the blues Nothin' is really wrong Feelin' like I don't belong Walkin' around Some kind of lonely clown Rainy days and Mondays always get me down Funny, but it seems I always wind up here with you Nice to know somebody loves me Funny, but it seems that it's the only thing to do Run and find the one who loves me (the one who loves me) What I feel has come and gone before No need to talk it out We know what it's all about Hangin' around Nothin' to do but frown Rainy days and Mondays always get me down Funny, but it seems that it's the only thing to do (only thing to do) Run and find the one who loves me What I feel has come and gone before No need to talk it out We know what it's all about Hangin' around Nothin' to do but frown Rainy days and Mondays always get me down Hangin' around (hangin' around) Nothin' to do but frown Rainy days and Mondays always get Me down
Back in the 1980's I worked at the offices of the attorney's Carpenter's. We had an entire section of file space devoted only for their files. Karen lived down the street (in Century City LA) from the office and would come in from time to time. This was around 1982
reminds me of the 70s , mum cooking sunday dinner with radio on , dad up the pub havin a few at lunchtime , the smell of roast chicken , school the next day . They gone now but this song makes me happy n sad , i love it
I just came across her gravesite on a hill in a beautiful little cemetary just off the 101 Freeway in Westlake Village, CA. So peaceful. It was clear that she still has fans who visit. Maybe some of you will.
I Love your voice Karen Carpenter. I love your songs and the music. You and your brother were truly amazing, miss you dearly Karen. God bless you may you rest in peace.
This year I met the carpenters and they captivated me, but when I saw and listened to this beautiful and at the same time talented woman, I ended up falling in love and I can't get that voice out of my mind.. 😭
Her interpration can still make me smile or cry, what a talent, what a gift, taken from us much to soon. Her sadness still haunts me when I hear her singing. How many performers can afftect an audience that way. I am usually critical since I have been singing lead in a Barbershop Quartet and Chorus for 24 years and when I hear Karen's voice it is really something special
Listen, LISTEN to that voice! It's completely insane, it shouldn't be possible, the technique, the range, the effortlessness (is that even a word?). My God she had a rare gift!
A voice of a angel she put my soul at peace boy did I loved her voice! I was in the parking lot of supermarket as read she was gone,sad day for me, I still remember!
Today's singer's come and go but this beautiful singer Karen carpenter has stood the test of time even after she went to heaven 😍💓 it just proves her voice still carries a msg to us all Karen's voice still touches a heartstring in each and every one of us ....long may Karen bring us joy from her smooth song's god bless you Karen carpenter you were quite simply a angel 👍💓😍🐻
The Carpenters,one of my favourite bands of all times,every single song Karen sang is my favourite,she is just too good,RIP and I am happy to be one of their favourite fans
Ahhh takes you back to those lovely days her voice brings many memories friends, family and school days she's missed by many her beautiful angelic voice one of a kind.
The Carpenters are one of my favorites from the 70s. I was looking at the Billboard Top 100 for 1971 - everything from Jethro Tull & Led Zeppelin to Perry Como & Andy Williams - pretty amazing.
the best voice ever hands down I miss listening to her sing all day on the radio when they played good music now youtube gives me my Karen fix lol R.I.P. Karen the world isn't the same without you
I am not really caring what genre of music the Carpenters really is, folk/pop/country. it's beautiful. I wasn't even born in their generation, but my father was heavily into music, loved all kinds of music, glad he introduced me to music, giving me a great appreciation of music in all forms. I always will find the 70's most appealing to me.
