Karen and her brother Richard on the keyboards did all of the background vocals to their songs except the last song Karen recorded , "Now" which was released after her death. Karen is always on in the top 10 of greatest vocalist lists. Her voice was just so smooth with no apparent break between head and chest voice. Her lower range is stunning with perfect control of her breathing and viibrato. Her loss is still felt by all of us who grew up listening to their music. There will never be another Karen Carpenter!
“Close to You” & “Top of the World” \ she thought her real talent was at drums & her mom only showed love to the son in documentaries. I remember everyone sang their songs on the bus for school. She was a tortured soul but we never knew. Most people feel bad learning that after she died. Because we loved what she gave to our lives. Sweet memories. ❤
I'm a musician and audiophile, and I REALLY enjoyed your comments. All your points about how she sang the song are well-taken. You apparently pay attention to your sound equipment...I noticed you have Beyer headphones (much more accurate than what most people use). :)
She is the best.i just love her voice.. there's a couple of video's of her just drumming which you would just love.they really show what a great drummer she was..and when she's drumming she has the biggest smile on her face..she loved playing the drums.hope you get to do one of them.love your passion for music and it sounds like you have one sweet voice yourself.
Thanks Gary. I would love to that out too. Have you joined me in my second channel already? There you will find my music ruclips.net/video/7xebApiZ6h0/видео.html
Karen Carpenters voice is amazing! Karen singing like an angel from heaven! 🌠 One of my favorit songs. Carpenters - Top of the World. (Billboard Hot 100 No.1 (1973) Carpenters amazing songs, will live forever! 🎵🎤 Thanks MrsPenPal! For your Carpenters -Rainy Days And Mondays. reactions! 🙂
This is one of the finest reactions I have seen. Great work! Karen's voice was so mesmerizing, many people can still remember where they were when they first heard it, fifty years later! Do yourself a favor and react to the Karen Carpenter/ Ella Fitzgerald duet, two of the greatest to ever hold a microphone!
I remember having dinner with my parents in a restaurant, after I had just bought the singles collection of The Carpenters. So right there I let them listen to their Beatles cover from early in their career. My father immediately said she’s a great singer.
Karen and her brother Richard sing ALL the back ground vocals on their records......she has a 3 octave range......but she knew he bottom range is what people wanted
I didn't appreciate this song and her beautiful voice when this first was released but now realize how much talent she and her bother had. Happy you can appreciate her timeless and awesome voice.
Very good assessment of Karen's vocal abilities coming from another talented singer. Obviously deeply touched to tears.❤ Thanks also for your acknowledgement to the older generation!
This song was written by Paul Williams, who wrote several of their hits. He once said, "I thought my songs would never be on any album, but then an angel (Karen) sang my song, and changed my life forever." John Bettis, who played in a jazz trio with Richard and Karen before they became The Carpenters, was asked, "What did she sound like when you first heard her?" His answer was, "She sounded just like you hear her today. She was 16 years old, and already had that voice, and she didn't work on it. It was a God-given gift that she was born with." John also wrote 38 of their hits with Richard. I first heard her voice 50 years ago, and I have yet to hear any other voice, female or male, that can touch the soul like Karen does. No one comes close.
It's hard to believe that she was more interested in playing drums than singing but she was so gifted at both things. Rest in peace and thank you for the gift you shared with us, Karen; you live on in us all.
You bring an expertise to reactions that is unique. Obviously you know the craft, Karen was a generational talent and her brother’s arrangements brought out the best in both of them !! Thank you 🙏🏻
I loved all the Carpenters’ songs, and they had so many. Back in the day, as a teenaged girl, if I was feeling kind of down, I could just go in my room and listen to that music and even sing along, and somehow it just helped me to get through whatever was bothering me. Happy upbeat music can do that too, but there was something therapeutic about listening to beautiful music sometimes that just kind of felt healing! Glad to know that young people are discovering some of the great music from the past! To name just a few songs I liked - Top of the World, Sing (Sing a Song), Superstar.😮
Richard Carpenter was really overshadowed by his amazing sister...but he's amazingly talented. A genius at "arrangements". The Carpenters did their own backup vocals...and those amazing little instrumental "solos" in many of their songs was mainly Richard's touch.
That gorgeous contralto voice...perfect control...the feeling pours through on every Carpenter song. This song and "Yesterday Once More" are my two favorites from their incredible catalogue.
I so love your thoughtful, pensive reactions, Blessing. I have loved Karen Carpenter from the moment she first appeared on the airwaves in 1970. It's so delightful to hear someone with your talent and taste reflect on her gifts. Keep up the great work, my dear. ❤️
Wow thank you she is a delight I can see how you fell in love at first listen. She is special and I am happy to find her thanks to recommendations from the PenPals😇
Karen Carpenter and Olivia Newton John were both angels sent from heaven to grace us with their talent and beauty . I fell instantly in love with both of them in the early 70s as a little boy. Their voices could reach out and touch your heart. RIP Angels
Thank you for acknowledging that we had great music in the 70s. Karen Carpenter, OMG! The collective "we" fell in love with her, for good reason. What great vocal control in the lower register, and what passion! Yes, that is her brother Richard on keyboards. He doesn't get the recognition he deserves. He was the arranger for most of their work. Wrote a few of their hits, and was an exceptional piano player/keyboardist.
There never has been a Heavenly voice and tenderness like this. There has only been one Karen Carpenter, and never will be another like her. Totally unique/special.
Wow! Karen Carpenter is a legend and I’ve known this song for decades and seen countless reviews of it due to that fact; HOWEVER, I found myself enthralled after just a measure of the sweet song snippet played right before it. Nice! Im headed to iTunes to buy THAT song right now (GREATFUL HEART)
@@MrsPenPal Hey that’s all you; all I needed was a couple seconds, and I knew I didn’t want to forget, so I bought it right away even before I finished the reaction. My wife is going to love it too cuz it’s right up her alley. Plus during the reaction I could tell you’re the real deal; best of luck and keep ‘em coming.
It was sad that she didn't think too highly of herself. She thought she was too fat and overweight. She really didn't think she could sing that good; and she thought of herself as a drummer first. Her short life (1950-1983) was a sad one: she never had found that ONE LOVE that she wanted in her life. The song, "Goodbye to Love" is kind of a mirror to her life. She was very special.
You do,you really do. She and her brother were truly underrepresented and not appreciated initially. Karen fought for equal to her brother her who life.
MrsPenPal I only have three words for you, " Close to You ". Check out that beautiful 1970 song that basically started it all for the Carpenters. You can never go wrong with that beautiful smooth Karen Carpenter voice also, another great suggestion for a reaction to a great and often forgotten song that features her beautiful voice called " Bless the Beast and the Children " I promise it won't disappoint.
Karen’s voice was absolutely flawless and effortless ! Sadly she battled Anorexia and her passing brought much needed attention to a disease that was not totally recognized until her passing !! She is definitely if number 1 ! Top 3 female vocalist ever !!
Hello Blessing MrsPenPal, I can certainly relate to you saying that you can "feel" her voice & music, because from the very 1st time I heard the Carpenters I experienced the same thing!!! Her voice was "Special" yes with a capital "S" and her brother Richard was & still is a musical genius!!! He was the musical arranger and they both sang the background vocals on their recordings...Karen is absolutely "The Voice" I will always love her and she will never be forgotten, but I also give a huge "Shout-Out" to Richard for all of his diligent work & the part he played in all of their success too!!! Excellent reaction and analysis my friend, you too are amazing!!!
@@MrsPenPal Hi Blessing, I always appreciate the way you analyze the singer's techniques because they make your reactions so vivid & genuine!!! Please keep up the good work and receive a very respectful virtual hug from your buddy, CR SoundDoctor
It was an incredibly tragic loss to lose someone that talented at age 32. That voice just has that ineffable ability to reach inside and pluck those heart strings and singing like that while playing the drums… she had incredible jazz chops; just amazing.
Growing up through the 70's I was always a Carpenter fan, but until today, I've never heard so many interesting points about Karen's voice before... thank you MrsPenPal! 👍
Wow musically you definitely know more than me and probably a lot of people I just know what I like I grew up with the Carpenters I am 60 years old from Canada. If you had been reacting with your face smaller and on the screen bigger you would have seen her playing the drums as she was singing but don't worry there's nothing wrong with the way you did it because you're beautiful you're smart and you definitely know what you're talkin about thank you for that reaction absolutely wonderful and I subscribed to you after I watch this, God bless
Yes, that’s her brother Richard on the piano. She had a one of a kind voice. FYI she died from anorexia because early in their career a reporter/ reviewer said she was “chubby”.
The talent of this woman she’s 21 here singing playing drums like that and her voice is haunting from 69 to 75 she was the shit she lived till 1983 but wasn’t the same after 75 76 ❤️
Really cool review video you made. You obviously know music and vocals and so glad to you appreciate one of the best female vocalists of all time. IMO, she’s up there with Whitney.
Karen started off as the band's drummer, and was incredibly self conscious about singing upfront. Her drums were like a comfort blanket for her. Unfortunately, they weren't enough to shield het from her intense insecurity. I guess you know the rest.
Hello MrsPenPal: Thank you for your reaction. I appreciate your energy. I wish you would react to their song, "Place to Hideaway" - she kind of floats through that song.
A wonderfully insightful singer. If you're looking for a truly in depth singer you should explore Judy Garland's work. Of course "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" is inimitable and surely her signature song but I'd recommend starting with either "The Man Who Got Away" from her version of A Star is Born or "Old Man River" from her 60's television variety show. Amazing performances but that's true of everything she sang.
Karen had about 15 big hit songs in only 13 years, then God needed her back in Heaven. So glad her voice is still here on Earth today for all future generations. Nobody sings like this today. Maybe Alison Krauss comes close on her best days, but not that bass.
Please consider Barry White singing "Can't get enough of your love babe" He's 70's! Jimmy Johns, also black, was 60's, first to falsetto in "Cause you got timimg" and "Im your handiman". Enjoy the music!

My fav is Superstar
check out goodbye to love
A Song for You is my favorite. Her voice and the amazing lyrics are perfection!
Karen Carpenter easily the greatest female vocalist ever !! Her voice was angelic ! Smooth as silk ! Effortless !!
In the studio, they usually needed just ONE TAKE for a song. Amazing. Give her brother a lot of credit, he did the arranging.
South of where......
Love Karen. Try "Behind Blue Eyes" by THE WHO. Little different
Karen and her brother Richard on the keyboards did all of the background vocals to their songs except the last song Karen recorded , "Now" which was released after her death. Karen is always on in the top 10 of greatest vocalist lists. Her voice was just so smooth with no apparent break between head and chest voice.

She shone brightest when she was drumming. She always said she was a drummer who sang. Watch her doing a drum solo. She really comes alive.
She sings right to your soul!!!
💯
“Close to You” & “Top of the World” \ she thought her real talent was at drums & her mom only showed love to the son in documentaries. I remember everyone sang their songs on the bus for school. She was a tortured soul but we never knew. Most people feel bad learning that after she died. Because we loved what she gave to our lives. Sweet memories. ❤
She has a strong clear and melancholy voice all together! Amazing!
I'm a musician and audiophile, and I REALLY enjoyed your comments. All your points about how she sang the song are well-taken. You apparently pay attention to your sound equipment...I noticed you have Beyer headphones (much more accurate than what most people use). :)
I appreciate you Christopher, thank you!

One of my favorit songs. Carpenters - Top of the World. (Billboard Hot 100 No.1 (1973)
Carpenters amazing songs, will live forever! 🎵🎤
Thanks MrsPenPal! For your Carpenters -Rainy Days And Mondays. reactions! 🙂
Thanks Mats ⭐️

Thanks William I appreciate the recommendations and I am happy this one stuck with you! It was mesmerizing that’s a good word!
I remember having dinner with my parents in a restaurant, after I had just bought the singles collection of The Carpenters. So right there I let them listen to their Beatles cover from early in their career. My father immediately said she’s a great singer.
She sure is!
Ticket to Ride was their first single. Apparently John Lennon ran into her once and evidently told "you have the voice of an angel". So true
Karen and her brother Richard sing ALL the back ground vocals on their records......she has a 3 octave range......but she knew he bottom range is what people wanted
Karen thought of herself as a drummer first.
That’s good. She got the best of both worlds 🎉
I didn't appreciate this song and her beautiful voice when this first was released but now realize how much talent she and her bother had. Happy you can appreciate her timeless and awesome voice.

What a wonderful story Tammy!
Yes!! All of what you said! And her brother wrote the music and/or arranged it every time. Quite the duo. I miss Karen to this day.
Wow that’s lovely 😇

Wow thank you she is a delight I can see how you fell in love at first listen. She is special and I am happy to find her thanks to recommendations from the PenPals😇
Her final recording was a beautiful song called "Now," released posthumously. It may well bring you to tears.
Much love. ❤️

I remember when she was new. Now she makes me cry.
There never has been a Heavenly voice and tenderness like this. There has only been one Karen Carpenter, and never will be another like her. Totally unique/special.
Ever want a good cry, watch the story of her life and music. The best love songs are written with a broken heart.
You have such a beautiful soul. I really enjoyed watching your reaction
THE VOICE
Karen was 100% the best!! I miss her!
Now you know how we felt when we heard her voice for the first time back in the 70s. She blows away any pop singer on the radio today.
Yes, that’s her brother Richard on keys! 😊
Thanks Pa
I love your love for her and her voice and lower register and her passion and yours!!! She tears me up on many of her songs
The magic of Karen Carpenter ❤️

One of THE finest vocalists ever !!
A natural God-given talent that I doubt I'll hear again during my lifetime.
Hi Blessing !
You got it immediately when few do.

Karen was my first crush, I was 10.
The best female voice ever! Please react to last recording titles "Now" itsa great!
Shes my dream meet in heaven. 😢😊
I listened to her albums.
Loved it!
Karen started off as the band's drummer, and was incredibly self conscious about singing upfront. Her drums were like a comfort blanket for her. Unfortunately, they weren't enough to shield het from her intense insecurity. I guess you know the rest.
This is a beautiful song
Yes indeed
Wow 👏 thank you so much for a great reaction to Carpenter's you will love Superstar 💘 it shows Karen's emotional beautiful voice ❤
Wow! Thank you for your reaction 😊. Please react to Superstar by the same Karen🙏🏻
Hello MrsPenPal: Thank you for your reaction. I appreciate your energy. I wish you would react to their song, "Place to Hideaway" - she kind of floats through that song.
Thank you for your comment ⭐️
She used to say of her voice “The money is in the basement”.
Great song! You're so pretty!
Awwh thank you!
“Money’s in the basement” was the phrase she used to suggest the songs picked for entertainment.
I was listening and appreciating this at 8 years old I am lucky wasn't the auto tune clown farm they have now!
Have you heard "I Won't Last A Day Without You" and "Merry Christmas, Darling?"
Thanks colonel for the suggestion
A wonderfully insightful singer. If you're looking for a truly in depth singer you should explore Judy Garland's work. Of course "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" is inimitable and surely her signature song but I'd recommend starting with either "The Man Who Got Away" from her version of A Star is Born or "Old Man River" from her 60's television variety show. Amazing performances but that's true of everything she sang.
Hi Joel, thank you! I appreciate your suggestions!
Wings of Pegasus aka fil, analysed karen's voice studio against live, virtually no difference ..she was THAT GOOD
Karen had about 15 big hit songs in only 13 years, then God needed her back in Heaven. So glad her voice is still here on Earth today for all future generations. Nobody sings like this today. Maybe Alison Krauss comes close on her best days, but not that bass.
I feel you mmm
❤
I love "Mr Guder", the quality isn't the best but there are live recordings from Budokan that showcase her fun style and drumming. :)
Please consider Barry White singing "Can't get enough of your love babe" He's 70's! Jimmy Johns, also black, was 60's, first to falsetto in "Cause you got timimg" and "Im your handiman". Enjoy the music!
cool channel, great work
Thank you
The brother wrote most the music and she sang.
you should listen to "Igoodbye to love"
I was drummer and lead singer in my band years ago. Not easy. But I was no Karen lol❤
Yes I agree with you. Karen was born to sing. Whitney Houston was too. Seems you were too. Blessing… aren’t you just that.
Great reaction MPP .... isn't she amazing? !!!
She definitely is!
Frank Sinatra, who was a famous vocalist and movie actor( in the 50's), begged his way on just to play harmonica on one of Karen's records.
