  • There was a time when the humble radio was a constant companion to many of us. Melodious songs with simple lyrics and great choruses being aired day-in and day-out filled our lives with pure joy.
    It was the time when the legendary Carpenters gave us endless hits in the 1970s and the unusual and honey-like voice of Karen Carpenter resonated in our ears for hours ! ' Yesterday Once More ' which was written by Richard Carpenter and John Bettis was a hit in 1973 honouring their favourite songs of yesteryear and though Karen is no more , Richard continues to perform this song at almost every concert and considers it his most favourite composition. #karencarpenter #yesterdayoncemore #nirmalakannan#cover

    Unforgettable and ever memorable, Karen Carpenter could easily have been listening to herself when this song was recast. And she'd have been done proud. A timeless song, beautifully presented. The instruments and chorus were mere props, in this strong vocally dazzling number. Doc Nirmala is at her very best when rendering songs from the Golden Generation of string vocals and great lyrics --- the Carpenters, Beatles, Neil Diamond et al. Our golden yesterdays, revisited con amore'.

      I'm so happy that you liked the rendition, Vijay. I love songs that bring back happy memories of the days when we were carefree and our brains were uncluttered with too much information! Life was so easy then and the music too was a reflection of those times.

    Waow ❣️ That’s a Beautiful Classic Song and sung so effortlessly well with panache ❤🎶👌🏼 Brings me back lovely memories of school days in the ‘70s when we used to listen to Forces Request (Monday nights), A Date With You (Friday nights) and In The Groove (Weeknights on Yuva Vani) 😊

    Beautiful...a haunting melody and voice Dearest Nirmala...you certainly brought back many memories from Yesterday ...and yes Once More...Tis time to applaud an expressive rendition of heart and soul ! What I've noticed is the karoke track is not overpowering and its a pleasure to listen ...What a wide repertoire and vocal range! The resonance and timbre of your voice is so rich . Can listen to you for hours. Keep the music playing .❤️💐

    When we were all young in the 70's, the Radio did it. Years later my wife Kay, who managed the "Fauji Bhai ' program, from AIR Leh, used to also do a half hour English program for the Forces. Most listeners of the request program were the IAF and us Army Aviation chopper jocks. The Carpenters were popular. Almost 15 years after it became a hit single.
