If by Bread (Cover) 

If a picture paints a thousand words, Then why can't I paint you? The words will never show the you I've come to know. If a face could launch a thousand ships, Then where am I to go? There's no one home but you, You're all that's left me too. And when my love for life is running dry, You come and pour yourself on me. If a man could be two places at one time, I'd be with you. Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way. If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die, I'd spend the end with you. And when the world was through, Then one by one the stars would all go out, Then you and I would simply fly away ❤❤💕

So beautiful thank you. That’s one of my favorite songs. In 1978 my brother had a music box created for me that plays this song. He recently passed away having never married and no children. I am going through things he’s kept for years and find a receipt for the last installment payment on this music box 41 years later. He was my best friend and I struggle with him not being with us any longer. As I’m looking at videos of pretty birds talking and the dogs playing carefree - I find this video. I thank you from my heart for making me smile.

Why does this girl not have a major record deal? Looks voice, talent. She has it all!

This young lady needs to put out cd’s as I want to buy them. I am 75 years old and I love her singing.

So beautiful. I'm crying. My wife has been gone for 6 years and this is one of her favorite songs. Very well done. Such feeling.

There is nothing more beautiful than a beautiful woman With a beautiful voice singing a beautiful song. I could watch this for hours. Amazing job, congratulations!

The second coming of Karen Carpenter. One of the most beautiful songs ever written.

Essa música é muito linda e melancólica!!! Seu repertório é maravilhoso e sua voz é como a de um anjo!!!

Comforting. An irreplaceable warmth in that voice. Splendid and well done.

This has to be the clearest, most beautifully sung cover on RU-vid. Beautiful.

So strange, I was feeling nostalgic and started listening to the songs of my early childhood. This song has always been in general one of my favorites from Bread. These songs influenced me musically, long before I went down guitar nerd lane. I was literally looking for the chord charts for this song and saw your totally awesome cover of this song. Well done!

Definitely a beautiful song equally beautifully performed by this nice voice - not to forget the delicate woman behind it! :-)

Keep singing please! You truly have a beautiful voice. I know you make me and I speak for a lot of Fil Ams here in the U.S. so proud of you. I’ve downloaded a lot of your songs and listen to them every day.

Beautiful woman, beautiful voice, beautiful song ... How can you go wrong?? Outstanding cover.

The most beautiful female vocalist I have ever seen and heard

Oh my god, cada vez essa moça canta melhor, essa velha canção do Bread, ficou ainda mais linda em sua voz. Thank you

No doubt, she listened and loved Karen Carpenter songs as she was growing up. Beautiful in many ways

This is just amazingly beautiful. Both your singing and playing are wonderful. Sometimes simple songs are the easiest to get wrong but you did brilliantly capturing the beautiful emotions of this gorgeous song.

Great Sound! I never had hear her before. I loved so much

Where has this girl gone she should be mainstream, there are artists singing today that cannot sing this sweetly!

If a picture paints a thousand words Then why can't I paint you? The words will never show The you I've come to know If a face could launch a thousand ships Then where am I to go? There's no one home but you You're all that's left me too And when my love for life is running dry You come and pour yourself on me If a man could be two places at one time I'd be with you Tomorrow and today Beside you all the way If the world should stop revolving Spinning slowly down to die I'd spend the end with you And when the world was through Then one by one the stars would all go out Then you and I would simply fly away

Just beautiful. Close your eyes and it's Karen Carpenter. Angelic voices the ears recognize immediately. 💕

Has me melting like butter.

This is as close to Karen Carpenter as any woman is going to ever get. But Shane has her own great voice and style and "that smile"..wow.. I'm blown away with her amazing talent. Hope this is the start of a sensational career. Bravo!

This made my evening - keep’em coming, Shanoe ol’girl!!

Karen's soul is living in yours. Bless you for sharing your talent with us.

You are incredible! Beautiful Cover. Thank you.

Nossa, uma artista completa. Será que o Richard Carpenter já ouviu ou já a conheceu? É a voz da irmã Karen, sem tirar nem por. Uauuuuuuuu!!!!!😍😘

UNBELIEVABLE! Re-incarnation does happen! Karen Carpenter is back. On top of that, she sings songs from great artists & bands of the past. If I can make a request, please sing one of Cat Steven's hits?
