Listening to Karen Carpenter brings back memories of my teenage days! I would sit for hours and listen to her! I cried like a baby when she died! RIP beautiful lady❤

You, too!!! It is amazing the effect this glorious voice had on so many of us. I miss her presence to this day.❤❤❤

The purity. Intonation and phrasing is beyond words. There will never be another Karen. Ever. God let us hear what one of his angels sounds like. Glorious.❤

The legend is that Karen didn't like this song. She didn't think it suited her voice. She heard Richard's arrangement and agreed to come in and record a 'demo track' to Richard's arrangement. With lyrics written on a napkin, Karen began to sing and it was so perfect the 'demo track' became the official track used on the album. One Take Karen had struck again!

Her best vocal ever, that is saying something because every song she ever sang was flawless. I put her on top of any list of female singers, she was a gift to the world.

I have never heard this song but The Carpenter’s was one of my mom’s favorites and we were raised on this music. Karen has probably the most beautifully clear voices of all time.

@jamesrawlins735 2 месяца назад

If you don't know the song is about a female groupie that had a relationship with a rock star, only to be discarded.

Karen's beautiful voice is so recognizable that all you have to hear is her sing one note and you know it is her. Truly the mark of a special singer. I was fortunate enough to see The Carpenters in concert in 1976. I'm 78 and I still think of that concert as one of the highlights of my life.

Written by singer/songwriter Neil Sedaka. Sung hauntingly beautiful by the late great Karen Carpenter. Brilliant! You should do a reaction to the original by Neil Sedaka. You will be pleasantly surprised. Lovely reaction by you both.

@jamesrawlins735 2 месяца назад

It was actually written by the great Leon Russell and Bonnie Bramlett (of Delaney and Bonnie - she also played the tall blonde heavyset waitress on Roseanne). The idea for the song came from Rita Coolidge, who got the idea after watching the relationships of female groupies and rock stars. In fact, the first version of the song was called Groupie (Superstar).

The music was composed by Neil Sedaka with Lyrics by Phil Cody back in 1972. First sung by Neil Sedaka on 11/01/1972. His live performance of his song is just beautiful with a full orchestra accompaniment. Brilliant! You must check it out.

Masquerade is another sad and yet beautiful song by the Carpenters. Please react to that.

@landreaulover 2 месяца назад

One of my top 5 favorite songs. Karen kills it on the vocals -- one of her best performances! Love Mel's comment -- the song is so sad, but her voice is so beautiful!

@candysump8641 2 месяца назад

Richard Carpenters magnificent arrangement skills are showcased in this song. Every instrument is in its place and Karen’s vocals in the center of it and holding it all together. In my opinion it is Karen’s best vocal performance. Rumor has it Karen didn’t like the song but like any true artist she nailed her performance. This is one of their best songs in my opinion.

I just finished playing online solitaire for a couple of hours and wanted to listen to some music; ironically this was the first video I watched (love Shawn and Mel's reactions). It's an addiction for me, like some people are addicted to video games. (Someone up there is sending me a message with this song?). Karen hated this song and didn't want to sing it, but was talked into it. Her voice is incomparable.

There are very few true altos, and Karen Carpenter is one of the best. It seems she didn't like this song that much, and I think she really preferred singing in her higher voice, but the lower she goes the richer and purer she gets! Truly amazing. And to think she started out playing drums and wasn't really interested in singing. SMDH.

Check out "When The Lord" by Susanne Sundfør. It deals with the same disease Karen Carpenter died from.
