Paul Williams was putting out songs for all the great acts of his era. He never got the credit he deserves. He was up there with Dylan, Neil Diamond, David Gates, etc.
Karen was one of the few that sounded as good if not better live than on the recordings. I saw them three times in concert they were awesome! Best female singer that ever lived. 💞
A RUclips channel called Wings of Pegasus analyzed Karen live vs studio recordings. Her vocal pitch was actually more perfect live. She probably was just more relaxed in the studio sessions.
Thank you Victor I never knew that! They were one of the few that I always said sounded better live! Karen has always been my favorite female singer no one comes close in my eyes!
What a great tribute the carpenters were my wife’s favorite group unfortunately my wife passed away very similar to what Karen passed away from. However my wife was handicap for eight years in the nursing home she did have a power chair and I did have a handicap van and we go out to eat and go different places but she said this is not what she wanted and she didn’t want her grandchildren to see her like that in a chair. For that I am now very depressed over that it’s really got me down I did everything I thought I could last a year if she was alive in the nursing home but just wasn’t what you wanted all I can say is thank you for the great time we had together all 38 years and God bless you in heaven and I will see you someday
Thank You for this post.I love you Paul and all of your music.Paul and John Bettis are my favorite lyricists. I love Paul's comment "Then an Angel sang it." You are a special person Paul and I can't Thank You enough for all of the great memories and for explaining our deepest feelings that you put into song.We only just begun 50 years ago wondering why Rainy days and Monday's get us down.Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you. When our smallest of dreams won't come true.We can take all the madness the world has to give but we won't last a day without your music.Regards, The lovers, The dreamers and me!
Karen Carpenter=effortless brilliance and grace. And thank you, Paul Williams for the inspiring lyrics and Roger Nichols for the glorious melody of this pop music masterpiece "We've Only Just Begun".

"Rainy Days & Mondays" caught the favorable attention of Johnny Mercer. Recognition from peers can be more important sometimes.
The best female vocalist of our time.
Her brother was an absolute musical genius as well
And a jerk
Karen sings so effortlessly beautifully
what a gentleman. great tribute
This was my husband and my wedding song 30 years ago, always have and always will be a Carpenters fan, no auto tune, just pure talent.
Karen will always be the best, We miss you Karen RIP.
Love this song and love Karen. She had the voice of an Angel, I miss her still♥️
She was an angel...
Karen had the voice of an angel. Unmatched before or since. Rest in peace Karen.

She is.a.Angel. I hope she is with JesusRIP Karen
How sure are you that karen carpenter is a christian ? Rsvp
@@dessertdew2592she actually was . Easy to find
@@dessertdew2592 Even if she wasn't she it would not matter. There is only love.
Paul Williams truly was a brilliant song writer, and a hilarious comedian, but to me, he will always be "Little Enos" (Smokey & The Bandit)
Angel angel angel
Holy cow karen had a lovely voice
❤❤❤ greatest voice
Karen beautiful voice! 🌻💛
I feel she was an ángel sent to us by God in so we may believe in HIS PARADISE.
And she could work a serious drum kit. ❤

Before an angel song it, an angel saw it on a bank commercial and composed it
She should be doing Carnegie Hall

She did, May 14th, 1971.
@@BillyLapTop . Yeah, I thought that the Carpenters performed once at Carnegie Hall. Glad to know that I remembered correctly!
She sang several Paul Williams songs..can you name them?😊
