Ah, the Midnight Velvet voice of angelic Karen Carpenter. As always, there are tears in my eyes whenever I hear Karen's voice. Rest in Peace Angelic Songbird. You are greatly missed.
Glad you did a reaction and enjoyed the song. Karen Carpenter was one of the greatest female vocalist of all times, beautiful amazing voice no auto-tune no back woods tricks just straight up talent.
What wonderful heartfelt reaction. Close To You was the Carpenters first #1 hit. Its success propelled them into Superstardom. Fun fact: Close To You was awarded the 1970 Song of the Year at the 1971 Grammy Awards. Knocking off The Beatles Let It Be and Simon and Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water. Those are 2 heavyweight legendary classics. Knocked out by Karen and Richard Carpenter. WOW!! Doesn't get any better than that. Mira, you re looking lovely as ever :-) Best wishes dearie, RNB
Thanks, Mira - glad you found a video that shows Karen playing drums! - her first love and desire was to be a drummer - she didn't want to be the "lead singer" -- but her voice was so golden, that she was pressured into it --- so many great songs by her!
That was a lovely reaction it's a lovely song. Could you please react to A SONG FOR YOU and (I'M COUGHT BETWEEN) GOODBYE AND I LOVE YOU both very emotional songs. I really hope you will do them
