I truly dont think that Karen knew how beautiful and talented she was...her voice is pure liquid gold...she was a star on earth...now a star in heaven...R.I.P. Karen...we will never forget you...
Sad but true..Karen had no idea how beautiful and talented she was.She will continue to leave her talented voice for years to come.Thank you Karen for that angelic voice😘
I believe that too! All she really ever wanted was for Mother to tell her that she loved her. I believe that by Agnes doing that it would have made all the difference.
February 4, 2023 today is Karen's 40th Anniversary. It does not seem like 40 years have gone by. Fan since I was a kid in 1970 when I first heard your voice. A voice like no other and a sparkling personality that grabbed me and never let go.Thank You Karen! Love You and really Miss You! Thank You for doing this and posting this!
IMO the best female vocalist this planet ever had and will never be replaced.....RIP Karen your voice was the 8th wonder of the world....be assured sweet angel you are not forgotten.....
While many famous entertainers have died, very few of them still inspire such pain as the passing of the Angel Karen Carpenter. She is still truly loved by millions. If she only knew.
I think she knew. But she had inner spiritual battles just like many of us experience in our lifetimes. She not only comforted millions with her angelic voice but she also exposed the problem of eating disorders - probably saving the lives of persons who battle the same inner conflicts. Of course we miss her - but at least we had her on Earth for 32 years. Karen's resting place is gorgeous. Good job to Richard with its design and tribute to his sister and parents.
Richard only knew how to do one thing in life: Select, arrange, and produce songs for his sister. Sometimes in life, all you need to know how to do is one thing. Such a heartbreaking, tragic loss, even still in 2021.
40 years and 4 days before Burt Bacharach's passing on February 8th, 2023 this angel Karen soared to heaven. Imagine the musical gifts we lost in that time but what heaven's choir gained.
The saddest day of my life was the day that Karen passed away in Downey I miss you Karen and I love you I will always love you an angel in the sky just like you were on Earth
I was a young child when this song was a hit. Living in Brighton, England, at the time. I connect this song and Top of the World with my school summer holidays in the early 70s. She left us far too soon x
I agree, she had the best and warmest female voice. I grew up on her music. I felt so bad as a kid when she passed away. She was the female version of Elvis in my opinion.
Oh yes it was in 1983 I just moved in downtown Saint Louis Missouri I heard on the radio that Karen carpenter had passed away me and my siblings loved listening to the carpenters music 🎶 🎵 on a record player I loved her singing voice she is singing for the lord with her incredible voice rip Karen 🙏 🕊 ☮
It is very very sad that no one saved Karen Carpenter. No one managed to help her when she really needed it. SO THAT SOUND REMAINS TO ENJOY. SO MANY BEAUTIFUL SONGS FROM SUCH A WONDROUS ABSOLUTELY WONDROUS VOICE. THE DEAREST VOICE.
Karen Carpenter, Loved and Missed forever. She is an Angel now and perfect in Gods house and sings again to greet ones who have gone to meet their saviour. I hope she sings to me when my soul arrives.
Its yesterday once more... Thinking of Karen Carpenter is a melodious memory. It is true that some people are unforgetable like Karen is. Rest in peace Karen. I can't forget Karen because I love her memory....But I must telll u Karen, I love u... and this love will never go away... even after I die.
Karen Anne carpenter is my cousin on my mothers side of the family.love you cousin Karen forever and eternity.god bless you forever.untill we meet again in heaven.
I feel so distraught whenever I return to hear her sing - because I'm reminded of the untimely death of such a talented, beautiful, young woman. She had a unique voice, and it was one of the most beautiful ever.
Karen was amazing but so was Richard who was incredibly talented as a composer and arranger of their music. Their music is timeless and Karen was lost far too early. My favourite song was "This Masquerade" its just so beautiful when sung by Karen.
We always love you Karen I always listening to your songs since when I was 6 years old. Until now I am 21 still growing up and listening to your songs..
A beautiful memorial thank you for sharing as I wanted to see her grave site she was a lovely singing angel her soul goes on thank you beautiful tribute beautiful resting place
I feel so heart broken the Carpenter family after got word that Karen's passing the first song that was played.this gifted soul has such beauty voice that was giving as a blessed gift from above,cause God knew that Karen was going to be a gifted singer with a voice of a angel and singing like an angel.
Such an amazing crooner. And a talented drummer. She couldn’t see how dangerously thin she was, and her mom couldn’t see that Karen was the huge talent in the Carpenter family.
I never got to say goodbye to you Karen carpenter I grew up with your music thru my brother and sister in law you were a beautiful soul you and your brother Richard will ALLWAYS be part of my life thru your music miss you two hope Richard will make an appearance sometime in the near future 🙏rest in peace Karen 🙏
I miss you Karen. I was so thrilled to see you in the pharmacy at Gemco, to get your your brother's signature when my friend and I were selling mistletoe around our neighborhood when I was 10 and I was so glad you were our neighbor! I knew Frank Pooler. I blew him away in a singing class at CSULB because I worked so hard to sound just you. I've been writing songs since I was 10; used two cassette recorders to play piano and guitar and overdub singing. The quality wasn't too great, Ha ha. I tried 'making it' but got beaten up. Now I teach piano to little kids. I'm putting an Army of piano players out there. I've been teaching 42 years and can't believe I get paid to 'produce' music makers. It's a blast! Move over crappy music of today. The pendulum is a swingin'! You're the best, Karen, along with Ella. I miss her too but not like you.
Karen Carpenter. She sang very nice. Thanks for your songs. Rest in peace, this great woman. Very sad her departure. We will never forget her. Someday I will go to the United States to visit you.
The very first album I ever bought when I started working was a Carpenters album. I loved her voice. It sounds like smooth molten chocolate. Even if you don’t know the song her voice was one that was instantly recognisable. I recall being so shocked when I heard back then that she had died.
Karen Carpenter and Richard Carpenter awesome memories lwill always cherish them Thank you both.lstill listen to the Carpenters to this day I really enjoy their music 🎵🎶.I think about Karen Carpenter she was too young to pass away Rest in peace my angel 😇🙏 Richard Carpenter l am praying for you and your family You and your sister made awesome music 🎵🎶 love you all very much.Your fan and friend always Sharon Curry from Decatur IL 🌈💐🙏❤️💐🌟⭐🙏💐🌟
simply the most beautiful and touching female voice to date. Amazing how this beautiful voice touches the heart and soul. I imagine that angels sing like this... so naturally the voice comes from the soul...
Wonderful idea to put "Yesterday once more" as background music. Thank You. Also a big Thanks to you for showing where her parents were laid to rest. Karen's father directly below her ... their bonds were stronger than her bond with her mum Agnes...
