    Ms. Khan's voice makes my heart ache. This song is beautifully emotional.

    This is probably the best cover I’ve heard in a very long while, her slowed down version, the arrangement of the musical instrument with the background input, very emotional and hauntingly good, her voice is amazing, she did Karen proud with this original take on such an iconic song, loved it.

    A song full of hope. What the world needs right now

    She is not trying to sound like Karen, it's just a tribute, calm yourselves down. If you guys see her others covers, you will notice that the covers she choose gain a haunting version, completely different from the original song, which makes me like her even more. I love the way she incorporates drama to her voice and melody with synths, it is just so beautiful.

      The Carpenters covered this song btw. The original version was used on a Crocker Bank commercial in 1970. ruclips.net/video/97X9huy7pHQ/видео.html

    I believe this was originally written by Paul Williams as a bank advertisement - Richard Carpenter asked if he and Karen could record it - the result - perfection! This version by Natasha - absolutely gorgeous - not a cover - just a beautiful interpretation of a beautiful song Well done Paul, well done Karen and well done Natasha..

    Can we just appreciate how she used her talents to make a modern artistic version of Karen Carpenter's song? Im not a fan of modern songs too, but i say that this is art.

    A heart-wrenching tribute to Karen Carpenter when you consider that she died suddenly from cardiac arrest caused by her anorexia in the morning on the day she was scheduled to sign her divorce papers. She had a very brief marriage to a cad. All she really wanted was to have a family of her own. Her parents thought that psychiatrists were only for crazy people and she grew up with this stigma. PLEASE emotionally support people in need of professional help so we can erase the stigma that still surrounds mental health and save lives.

    • @lcozzarelli

      Griffin Just say no to narcisssists. Unfortunately Karen didn’t have a choice, being caught between her brother and. her mother. :(

    • @nomadrat
      @nomadrat Год назад +1

      I remember all that from my childhood. 😢 I was a huge fan. It was truly heartbreaking and this song, this version/cover, really brings it home. Beautiful yet brutal. A bullet with butterfly wings.

  • @stanleylynch1106
    @stanleylynch1106 4 года назад +15

    I know I'm a few years late, but I like this a lot(for what it's worth). An interesting choice for a cover, and I like the rather haunting take on it. The sparse arrangement and the added reverb or natural reverb of the auditorium (or both) add to that feel. Yet, it retains just enough of the Carpenters' version. Very Cool Indeed.

    I went to London last year in a coach, the coach went all the way from Germany for around 18 hours. Because there was a protest and I was in traffic jam inside London before the coach arrived at Victoria coach station. Plug my headphone into the coach's radio, Natasha was on radio for her latest release, she sang this very song on the radio.
    One of the most memorable scene of my entire journey, as I travelled all the way from Hong Kong.

    A devastatingly poignant and beautiful cover. At Manchester, she jokingly introduced it by saying she and her tour band had entertained hopes of becoming a "bad wedding band, singing Lionel Ritchie covers, but failing that, here's something else for you..."

    I think this was performed in Los Angeles, and if so, I was there. Trust me when I say it's just as beautiful live as you'd imagine, potentially more powerful within the context of the entire show and concept.
    This and Laura were probably my favorite songs from that night.
    ***Side note. Lana Del Rey was in attendance.

The arrangement of the music, including the background takes, awesome, emotionally effective even for the hardest of men, silky haunting vocals, slow down version of such a classic song.

    It's different, I'll give it that. Perhaps it's not what I thought it was going to be, but at least this introduces people to a beautiful song, and maybe a great brother-sister duo from Downey who made us feel all the things we're too afraid to feel out loud.
