The Carpenters tell Robert Young, from the short lived show "Robert Young with the Young", about the story behind the song "Sometimes". Very Sweet and touching song and a little info about a great song, told and sung by Miss Karen Carpenter and with help from Richard too ;)

Karen's voice is truly a one in a million...Once you heard her start to sing, its hard to resist to not to listened.There is something so magical about her voice that only her can do that. and when you heard her singing you can't get enough of her. You'll be wanting more of her voice. I my self can attest to that.

Divas Live i Love so much Karen Carpenter is The Best singer Of The World

@howard1707 14 лет назад

This world was truly blessed to have Karen Carpenter in it

@mikeilamenk 4 года назад

“Thank you” how does she do that.. She can make me feel emotions with just a single word on how she says/sings it. I even love her speaking voice too. 💙

@RitaSora Год назад

I still get an immediate range of emotions flowing every time I hear Karen speak or sing. It must be her unique voice, warmth and the strong emotion she put in each word.Thank You Karen!

This is for my Mum, recently laid to rest with Dad, aged 91. As my brother said, 'Together again'.

@FLBoy46 10 лет назад

This should be included on all their "Greatest Hits" because it is, truly, one of a kind.

@divaslive6953 9 лет назад

FLBoy46 I absolutely agree...this is so beautiful and perfect in my opinion...i love how Karen put those lyrics. Her voice is truly a one in a million...so hard and difficult to resist. Once you heard her singing you can't get enough of her...i even my self attest to that...

@FLBoy46 9 лет назад

Divas Live This is, to me, their absolute greatest hit ever. Thanks for your comment.

I'm a 40yr old raised on 80s-90s metal music, but I have to give credit where credit is due... Karen had the most powerful voice of the past 3-4 decades. Her style of music isn't my cup of tea, but that voice is hypnotizing... I could listen to her for hours on end and never get tired of hearing Karen... RIP! Such a senseless death!

I remember when I first heard the beginning of this song, I thought it was just an instrumental and skipped it. One day I decided to listen to it and to my surprise Karen was singing and it took me completely by surprise. I remember being memorized by those haunting lows and smooth velvet tones. It was truly a wonderful surprise, it’s certainly one of my favorite songs in the whole collection. I played it 30 times that day. Im glad I have all the original vinyl albums, this song is on the album Carpenters. I recommend that you listen to it on a record player, it’s so mush more natural, haunting and beautiful.. I believe it one of their best albums..

A solitary piano, a humble voice, and simple words are enough to crush your bones and break your heart. I am simply stunned at how devastatingly beautiful this is. And to think that Miley Cyrus is older now than Karen Carpenter was here ... makes me want to jettison out of this world for what it has sadly become. Whatever happened to decency and modesty and purity? Too much liberalism is not all that great... How I wish that young people still comport themselves the way these two did. Is America gone forever?

You're simply a pure class, Karen. Those past and present singers, none are even come close to you. Love you for ever.

@nahheyheyhoorayjames7290 6 лет назад

@greenwich1754 11 лет назад

I have always wished that Karen & Richard would have done a whole album "unplugged", with just Richard's fantastic piano skills & Karen's rich voice. It would have been a classic. I don't know if it's posted, but Richard & Karen doing the "Zodiac Medleys" from "Make Your Own Kind of Music( (various song snippets,1971) is the same deal, and AWESOME.

Karen singing LIVE! At the peek of her most talented life. In one word - Beautiful!

@grobanfan2 13 лет назад

the most beautiful voice that ever existed! From the beginning to the end of the song, her voice sounded rich, ptich perfect, sweet to the ears, heart touching, and she sings from the heart and touches the heart of those who hear it. There won't be another Karen who could sing like this. SO BEATIFUL.

@Jameswilliam1982 9 лет назад

richard is so awesome on piano on this one, so impressive

@cimarronhopper4605 5 лет назад

Karen is far more amazing as a singer

@TheLarryBrown Год назад

@@cimarronhopper4605 Not quite so fast. While it is true that unique and great singers are few, it's also true that arrangers, and pianists, of Richard's caliber are also few. American Idol has showed is how many aspiring singers you need to audition to find just a few good ones. A singer has a way to touch our emotions in a way that no musical instrument ever can. But consider this: Richard made this song his own, and he outdid big shot and song composer Henry Mancini in doing so. Not on this video, but on the record, Richard's rhythm on the melody is more straight forward and gives it a different and more effective feel than does Mancini's more bouncy treatment of the rhythm. Richard's talent turned this song from something "nice" to something "spectacular," and that was a big accomplishment and only Richard could do that, Mancini couldn't. As great as Karen is, she doesn't arrange music, she doesn't write music, and she doesn't play piano. Without Richard's amazing talent and artistic vision this song would not have been effective like it is, and the same goes for "Close to you." Richard's arrangements succeed whereas the ones from Hollywood bigshots Mancini and Bacharach don't. No matter how much you appreciate a singer, that is impressive.

The song touched me so much I am crying, it's just so moving. That's the power of good music, it's worth more than the price of gold or money.

@artistbrindle 8 лет назад

What more can one say except "perfection"??? I think that this show is where I first saw her do "Sing" and I was blown away at the age of seven ;).

@litomago 11 лет назад

OMG! She opens her mouth and LIFE comes out! I miss you Karen and love u 4 ever!

@SupaSoniQ 16 лет назад

There are no words to discribe how incredibly talented Karen was. Pure magic when you look at her and her brother at work. Tragic the way it had to end. I wil stay a fan for life.

@vHumboldt77 14 лет назад

Why is it that both of them sounded so absolutely wonderful when singing / playing, and kind of graceless when they just talked?

@1ampixie 14 лет назад

I miss her voice most of all.......My childhood memories...miss you both Karen and Richard, your lovley piano playing,her awesome voice..never to be compared to anyone,,ever! Miss her so much,a forever fan.

@chewjfsh 14 лет назад

Sometimes, not often enough....I do miss Karen Carpenter. If you listen to this song from their studio album and not reflect on those you have missed and even tear up in your eyes, you have to be missing a heart. This song will always remind me how much I missed her...beautiful cannot even cone close to describe that voice.

@Maverick747uk 15 лет назад

She was without doubt the finest female singer of all time. Ahead of her time and mature in delivering a song with such emotion and clarity that belied her years. Amazing beyond words.

@EwolDJ 14 лет назад

This song is so perfect for Karen and Richard too, who gets to shine on grand piano. His brilliant arrangements were so often often overshadowed by the superstardom of his phenomenal sister. The best female singer of all time? This does an injustice to the dozens of favorites I have. I would not set one above the other pr bore you by naming them all. Much better to simply describe her as 'one of the best'. She sure was special.

@RitaSora Год назад

Love her unique and warm speaking and singing voice.Been listening to Karen since day one when I was a little girl.She is still mesmerizing to me.Thanks Karen! Won't ever forget you.

@mamabevo 14 лет назад

Beautiful music from talented musicians. Karen's voice was the best - no one has duplicated it - saw their concert in Houston - fabulous memory. She left us too soon. Linda in Houston

What a talented pair and she had such a beautiful voice. As silly as it may be to admit this, this song always makes me cry when I hear it.

@CattleyaDulce 4 года назад

Sometimes not often enough We reflect upon the good things And those thoughts always center around those we love And I think about those people who mean so much to me And for so many years have made me so very happy And I count the times I have forgotten to say "thank you" And just how much I love them

Beautiful words, phillip ... but remember that this marvelous dream is still alive also now and will rest, for ever and ever, in our soul and our blood. This is the main feature of Karen Carpenter's voice: it rest directly from the really first time that you heard her magic voice until the end of your life in earth!

As long as their are sensitive romantic people in the world, her music and spirit will live on forever. She was a wonderful person, it's a shame what happened to her. She was such a talented girl. :) WE MISS YOU KAREN!!! :( The world was a beautiful place with her in it, not so much anymore.
