It's difficult to accept that Karen isn't here anymore. Her body of work is incredible and her voice ....angelic. Perhaps the smoothest, intoxicating sound I have ever heard in my life. Thank you Karen for sharing your gift and bringing so much joy to so many people. R.I.P
For me, for my soul, this is the GOAT, and it is not even close. God, bless you for sending us Karen, if only for such a short time. Oopps, there I go, crying again. WTF?????????
This was a popular wedding ballad in the late 70s thru mid 80s, not as much as We've Only Just Begun but I heard it at quite a few weddings in those days.
They came to my hometown of Lansing MI once n 1976. They were VERY popular in Japan and England, and other countries, not the USA... You may be hearing both the oboe and the English Horn here. The oboe is usually a more nasal sounding tone in a higher range, but the English Horn a more rounded tone in the lower range. However if either one is not played with a good tone, they can be very annoying lol. That goes for the bagpipes too.🤣
Beautiful reaction to the GOAT Karen. One of my favorite Carpenters songs. I date to 1970 when I was 14 and bought Close To You, new. Now I have this 21 year old living breathing version of nostalgia, Tori Holub and her and James’ cover of; For All We Know. Just, amazing, it takes me back.

Thanks so much. It’s a great love song that can be used in weddings and anniversaries. 🎶🎶🎶
One of my favorites, but they’re all great!
Thanks David ! Love this and all others 🙏🙂🎵
Karen never sang anything but greatness... Tori Holub, if you listen to her cover the Carpenters, is now Karen reincarnated.
She was amazing.
Thanks David. Truly amazing. This song remains one of my personal favorites. 🎶🎵
So glad you chose this one !
Thank you Krystal ! This is the original version that I came to know and love. Or the closest from the tan album. 🙏🙂🎵

Thanks Joe! Appreciate your feedback. Glad to have reacted this great song as a Carpenters fan since childhood. All the best. 🎶🙏😀
I’ve always loved this song. But everything they played was a hit due to Karen and Richard’s talented musical abilities.❤
Thanks Patricia! Loved this song growing up. Richard and Karen complemented each other. Perfect team. 🙂🙏🎵
