Miker 5,683 Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 A voice so rich and refined, and was tragically taken before her time - Karen Carpenter. I always thought it curious that the song has such an upbeat message, but what I consider, to be in such a melancholy tone. Karen had only just begun. It was so tender how her much her brother cared for her and protected her. I like this song for so many reasons not the least of which is -- cheers to new beginnings and old memories. August is a rough time for me, but also the start of so much anew. I don't just hear this song; I feel it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__VQX2Xn7tI So glad my sister introduced me to them and so thankful for Youtube, bringing us the magic of The Carpenters. It truly is yesterday once more This song is me, in a nutshell. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfTnf4AiN4Y Karen Carpenter is my favorite female vocalist. Her voice was pure and her songs with her brother are legendary. http://youtu.be/PjFoQxjgbrs http://youtu.be/evETS8_WFGE Mars..........or bust!

Ambrosia 3,775 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Karen Carpenter is my favorite female vocalist. Her voice was pure and her songs with her brother are legendary. Love those choices - esp. Rainy Days and Mondays - a real favorite of mine. If pop was ever pure, it could be found in the angelic form of Karen Carpenter. Her brother was very talented as well, yes. Another soul-crushing favorite for the road: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqkVNHwJfKc Do not do to others what angers you if done to you by others. -Socrates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambrosia 3,775 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Yes this is another memorable song Her songs always give you a sense of love and hope. We are in agreement. Almost every one of their songs makes you feel like it's "your personal song". Which reminds me..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PMgmgDq2Fo I needed some Carpenters therapy. This did me some good. Do not do to others what angers you if done to you by others. -Socrates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
