The Carpenters were a force! Nobody sounded or looked like them. Karen, all by herself, should be considered the top female pop vocalist of all time. They should be inducted in all of the Hall of Fames, PERIOD!
41 years ago today (Feb 4, 1983) this angel went to heaven. She is sorely missed to this day. Her emotional etheric pitch perfect voice is timeless and will live forever. ❤
She still mesmerize me. Incredible, beautiful, tears still well up every time I hear this. She was absolutely beautiful and and a gift to have lived during her time. I feel blessed to have been born in the 60s
Karen has one of the most beautiful voice ever exist. the moment you hear just one or two notes of her song you will know instantly that it was she who is singing. Such a uniquely beautiful voice. if only she had lived longer, there would've have been so many more beautiful songs of hers. Her legacy even for a short while will be remembered forever ❤
My God, Karen was perfection. Her voice, her style, her demeanor. Her family (I’m looking at you, Richard and Agnes), are absolutely disgusting. They were behind 99% of her problems. Rest in peace, Karen. Thank you for sharing your angelic voice with the world. ❤
There's really something in Karen's voice, its a mystery, it's haunting, it will make you stop for your track and do nothing but just listen to her and it will hooked you up, and you will never get enough of it, you want more, more and more of her....💜💜💜
Karen with her beautiful, unique voice. Richard is a musical genius, producer. A perfect matchup- Together, They’ve created musical magic. Bring joy to many, and earned so much love from many’s around the world. (Including me) Karen Carpenter. She’s left to somewhere better. RIP sweet angel. For Richard, life’s continuing. I wish him the best of luck on career/life. A touching video. Thank you for posting, your works/efforts is appreciated. Have a nice day🙂everyone.
Karen Carpenter was such an inspiration to me. When l was a young girl, l wanted to sing and sound just like her. When l got married in 1988, l had to have "We've Only Just Begun" played at our wedding. After having children, l would listen and sing to her music and my children told me that l sounded like her, it made me smile. I realized as I've listened to her songs over the years that most of them are very sad. She was so talented but l think because of her sadness she could really feel it and express the pain inside through music. Lord have mercy on her sweet soul. What a gift she was and still is. ❤😢
how does a brother and sister from a small town in california go and sell 100 million records. just unbelievable talent. the greatest female singer that ever lived and the greatest music arranger. Richard could have been a concert pianist if he wanted to. thank you Richard for keeping hew spirit alive for us to enjoy. The carpenters will live with us as long as there is such a a thing as music. if that makes any sense
Pay fucking Attention please, they were from the East Coast, New Haven CT. Moved in part, because, of, to were the recording industry was located by their controlling parents.
Gracias por la publicación. Carpenters es una de las mejores agrupaciones de su época, con muy buenos musicos y la excelente producción y arreglos de Richard. El gran talento de Karen Carpenter su bella e inigualable voz, su carisma compromiso y entrega a la hora de interpretar cada canción, así como su humildad al momento de agradecerle a su público los aplausos y el cariño que les brindaban. Todos estos detalles hacen de ésta una tremenda agrupación, a mi parecer un poco subestimada, a pesar de los aportes que ellos le hicieron a la música en su tiempo. Ojala muchos músicos de hoy, tomarán como referencia a esta maravillosa y excelente agrupación. Gracias CARPENTERS por entregarnos todo su esfuerzo y su magia!!!
Both so understated, eloquent, perfection and innocence all in one, yet at the time they were picked apart for all those qualities by music critics. They broke into a difficult hard rock scene by just making beautiful music and never steered away from what they were by giving into fads.
I think Karen Carpenter had one of the most beautiful voices ever. Karen you may be gone but not forgotten. Rest in Peace sweet Karen. Sing high with the angels in heaven.
I think because there was so little known about anorexia she wasn’t able to really get the help she needed. If this had happened today, she would’ve been cured. R.I.P. Karen! Thank you for the voice and the drums.Thank you Richard for the music!
If only Karen you could have blocked out idiots. The guy in this very documentary just ignorantly added to her coffin. He said "who is this chubby girl"? Young girls at her age then think real major about hurdles like that. It never left her. And Richard will never admit his part of not seeing the mother's lopsided affections. Listen to what she says so young. "I didn't know how to do anything". It was all Richard. See how strong family dynamics are. She was near the best singer in the world.
“Something in her voice calling out to he heard” Karen’s voice, energy.. reminds me a bit of Robin Gibb.. filled w deep genuine emotion.. and a joyful spirit, tho she was in pain… Music so incredible, such beautiful songs.. story interesting.. hard w family and tragedy.. Richard seemed a great musician, energy off for me. “Two innocent kids that loved music.. they made a lot of people happy..”
Karen could sing the phone book or a restaurant menu and it would be number 1..there is nobody in the past that had a voice like hers sheer perfection. I was crushed when she died😢😢😢😢😢 I miss her singing. My favorite is still Merry Christmas darling. That song is timeless .
In history? Really ? What Cher, Bette Midler, Janis Joplin , Whitney Houston, Dolly Parton ? Just to mention, a few Karen was good, for one range. OH YEA, Julie Andews
She is one of the GOATs for sure! Top of list. Very sad to this day since she had so much life to live and more success ahead of her. God Bless her and Richard as well. Very talented duo.
Herb, Burt, Hal, Petula, Les and Richard and Karen. Amazing. You had to love them...and so did your parents. It was incredible. You had Three Dog Night, Grand Funk Railroad...but there was always room for the Carpenters. When Karen died, I was 19, and even though I was in to "new" music then, my heart cried.
The Carpenters music came out when I was getting into my teen years. I loved her voice and was able to sing a lot like her....in my senior year of high school, my music teacher let me sing solos in our Christmas and Spring Concerts. Of course, I wanted to sing THE CARPENTERS songs. I sang “Merry Christmas Darling” to a standing ovation, and in the Spring I sang, “Maybe It’s You, Maybe It’s Me.” I still remember ALL The Carpenters songs and still sing them to this day!! What an incredible voice she had! I was heartbroken at her death at such a young age.😢. I have lived past 32 years and now have surpassed that at 69 yrs old. Sweet Karen was never able to get that far, sadly. In my heart she will ALWAYS BE......THE BEST FEMALE VOCALIST OF ALL TIME!! NO ONE to this day has had such a unique voice!! Love and miss you Miss Karen! ❤️
The Carpenters, both of them are a gift to the modern and post, post modern world and is a must have collection in your music catalogue of life. There are so many "unsung" hero's not withstanding Les Paul that produced and engineered the sound of The carpenters. At the time Richard wanted the auto harmonization that Les Paul had pioneered and he had 21 years of electric instruments, modulators, mixers and the "synths" to run his tracks through. Karen had a great voice that is to be sure I am just as impressed with the songwriters and well everybody that pulled this off. Such great arrangements. I remember Michael Jackson saying how he adored The Carpenters,. He like The Carpenters did his back up vocal harmonies on multi tracks and harmonized using the Less Paul / Richard Carpenter method as well as the latest digital quadraphonic voice synthesizers.
ive watched at least 6 Carpenters documentaries and this one is a fave....great job,especially including many great videos and the often left out Christmas music..thank you!!
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN CHARGE OF THE MUSIC HALL OF FAME YOU HAVE TO PUT THESE 2 GENIUSES OF MUSIC IN THE ROCK IN ROLL HALL OF FAME, KAREN & RICHARD CARPENTER BELONG IN THERE HANDS DOWN, THEY EPITOMIZED MUSIC PUT THEM IN THE R.R.H.O.F. WHERE THEY BELONG, THEY PAID THERE DUES NOW DO YOUR PART & ELECT THEM IN THE HALL NOW.
Thorough out my life I have met a friend in Washington & 2 good friends in Utah I had no idea how much they loved the Carpenters. One was classical music trained but heard her voice and wanted to hear it over and over. The other friends were rock & roll enthusiasts and feel in love with the Carpenters. Her voice is magical and is the greatest female voice ever and will be forever. Have the three CD set of all her and Richard's hits.
Awesome. One of the best documentary on ‘The Carpenters’. I’ve learned to know more about Richard Carpenter from this docu. So much talents. A genius in what he did. His love of music. A hard working with a strong determination. Karen has such a unique, beautiful angel voice. with the knowledge of music in background. The bonds of brother/sister- Together, they’ve created a magic. The Carpenters music brings joys, and inspiring to many. Definitely, A well deserved all those successes. Thank you very much for posting. Much appreciated. I wish you/teams in a good health. Have a nice day🙂everyone.
Karen had such a beautiful voice. I love to hear her sing still to this day. Poor Karen, I hated it couldn't have lasted longer for her. 😢 She left her mark on this world though. ❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹
Y lograron la excelencia, pero ademas Karen puso su alma en cada interpretación que nos brindó. Seguramente estará en el paraiso! Gracias por publicar el video. Bendiciones para Carpenters donde quiera que se encuentren!
A true talented and best singer who preferred sitting behind the drum set vs many not so talented who don't think twice to strip down in front of the world.... Not sure how we get here...
The industry needs to stop putting pressure on performers to look and act perfect. Enjoy their talent and gifts but stop driving them to their graves with unrealistic demands.
The Music Hall of Fame should be ashamed of themselves. The Carpenters should be in it !
The music hall of Fame is irrelevant
Absolutely!!!!
They should DEFINITELY be in the hall of fame
Absolutely 💗
Wow didn't know they weren't, really !
The Carpenters were a force! Nobody sounded or looked like them. Karen, all by herself, should be considered the top female pop vocalist of all time. They should be inducted in all of the Hall of Fames, PERIOD!
41 years ago today (Feb 4, 1983) this angel went to heaven. She is sorely missed to this day. Her emotional etheric pitch perfect voice is timeless and will live forever. ❤
Amen!!! 🙏❤️🩹😪
* 41 years ago (sorry to be "that guy" 😅)
What does Jesus say in the Bible regarding who and how you go to heaven?
She still mesmerize me. Incredible, beautiful, tears still well up every time I hear this. She was absolutely beautiful and and a gift to have lived during her time. I feel blessed to have been born in the 60s
Amen…!!! 🙏❤️🩹😪
Karen voice was like a mother singing to her son, warm, intimacy and loving feeling. Thats why we all get attracted to it
I could tell this was a man saying this
She was a great drummer too
There will NEVER be another Karen Carpenter. What a wonderful human being.
Rest in peace Karen 🙏🏻 ❤
Karen has one of the most beautiful voice ever exist. the moment you hear just one or two notes of her song you will know instantly that it was she who is singing.

She was born to sing....
Karen's music got us through Vietnam. She was that drop of hometown that we needed in our coffee everyday 😊😊
I’m glad you had her. We felt so useless stateside, wishing we could help.
The Carpenters are more talented than any hall of fame award could honor
As close to perfect as I’ll ever hear !!!
❤ Karen Carpenter forever❤
Such an angel 👼, oh how we miss you and our hearts grieve 😢, gone in the blink of an eye, but soon we will be together again 🙏❤️🩹
There's really something in Karen's voice, its a mystery, it's haunting, it will make you stop for your track and do nothing but just listen to her and it will hooked you up, and you will never get enough of it, you want more, more and more of her....💜💜💜
Yes ..... 💗
Karen with her beautiful, unique voice.
Richard is a musical genius, producer.
A perfect matchup- Together, They’ve created musical magic.
Bring joy to many, and earned so much love from many’s around the world. (Including me)
Karen Carpenter. She’s left to somewhere better. RIP sweet angel.
For Richard, life’s continuing. I wish him the best of luck on career/life.
A touching video.

We lost one of the greatest talents in the world on 4.2.1983 R.I.P Karen, miss You so much!
You mean 2/4/83. You accidentally transposed the 2 and the 4
@@MaureenMaloney-x3x Yes, she died on 2/4/1983 ... thanks!
The best female singer and soul to ever grace this planet ❤️
Karen Anne was an angel sent straight from heaven 💞 🌹 💖
Karen Carpenter and Dionne Warwick were the two best singers of that era.

It’s impossible to listen to her sing and not get goosebumps. Possibly the greatest voice of all time. Pure and simple.
Herb Alpert is 90 and still performing.
Yes, Karen a beautiful voice is immediately recognizable. Not many singers have this X Factor in sound, only the greats.
how does a brother and sister from a small town in california go and sell 100 million records. just unbelievable talent. the greatest female singer that ever lived and the greatest music arranger.

Exactly🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🤍
Pay fucking Attention please, they were from the East Coast, New Haven CT. Moved in part, because, of, to were the recording industry was located by their controlling parents.
Karen’s voice was effortless and organic. Beautiful.
Her voice was perfection and angelic taking me back five decades when I was young. she left us too soon.
Words can't describe her magical voice

Richard said in an interview that he liked this documentary the best, thanks for the upload ❤
She had a voice of an Angel!...and so much sadness behind it!
Both so understated, eloquent, perfection and innocence all in one, yet at the time they were picked apart for all those qualities by music critics. They broke into a difficult hard rock scene by just making beautiful music and never steered away from what they were by giving into fads.
A voice as smooth as silk and as rich as dark chocolate! Wholesome and calming.
I think Karen Carpenter had one of the most beautiful voices ever. Karen you may be gone but not forgotten. Rest in Peace sweet Karen. Sing high with the angels in heaven.
I grew up listening to the Carpenters. This documentary makes me emotional. How could something so beautiful be snuffed out prematurely.
I think because there was so little known about anorexia she wasn’t able to really get the help she needed. If this had happened today, she would’ve been cured. R.I.P. Karen! Thank you for the voice and the drums.Thank you Richard for the music!
I agree. She didnt stand a chance and that's todo sad.
If only Karen you could have blocked out idiots. The guy in this very documentary just ignorantly added to her coffin. He said "who is this chubby girl"?

Listen to what she says so young. "I didn't know how to do anything". It was all Richard. See how strong family dynamics are. She was near the best singer in the world.
She chose the right songs to sing which suited her image perfectly and also in regards to her angelic voice.
Karen was so beautiful 🌹🌹🌹
She was so beautiful, so talented, but still so pained! We miss you beautiful lady!
What a great story, unfortunately, with a tragic ending, but her music and her legacy will live on forever
She is flawless. Every note. Even when she was dying.
Beautiful Karen Carpenter RIP sweetie ✝️❤️🙏👑🙌
“Something in her voice calling out to he heard”
Karen’s voice, energy.. reminds me a bit of Robin Gibb.. filled w deep genuine emotion.. and a joyful spirit, tho she was in pain…
Music so incredible, such beautiful songs.. story interesting.. hard w family and tragedy..
Richard seemed a great musician, energy off for me.
“Two innocent kids that loved music.. they made a lot of people happy..”
Merry Christmas Darling gets me every single time
Yes. Gets me too. What the check was her mom's problem !!?? Jealousy. I'd bet !!!
Karen could sing the phone book or a restaurant menu and it would be number 1..there is nobody in the past that had a voice like hers sheer perfection. I was crushed when she died😢😢😢😢😢 I miss her singing. My favorite is still Merry Christmas darling. That song is timeless .
Karen was the greatest female vocalist in history!!!
In history? Really ? What Cher, Bette Midler, Janis Joplin , Whitney Houston, Dolly Parton ? Just to mention, a few Karen was good, for one range.
OH YEA, Julie Andews
She is the best!!!
Madonna?
@@vickingsley537dolly parton lol 😂

One of the Best.. That voice will always get me deep in my heart.
Love you Karen Anne 💕

It's wonderful to be remembered so deeply by so many people! She was a wonderful singer.
Only karen carpenter can sing this ❤❤
If you love good Music, you ought to love Karen's voice. They made magic...!!! I could listening to her all day...!!!
Instead of the rock ‘n’ roll hall of shame, there should be a “ true musicianship Hall of Fame”
Karen I will never forget you 😢!
Shes so amazing ❤❤❤
Karen Carpenter still is the best sounding female "pop" vocalist on the planet. And she's been gone for 40 years.
The greatest voice ever!

So much talents. A genius in what he did. His love of music. A hard working with a strong determination.

Wonderful singer Karen was!
Magnificent! Loved every minute of this! Carpenters are my all-time favorite group.
Wow. What a music feast. Impressive that someone was ready to produce such a quiet, patient, peaceful piece of film.
Y lograron la excelencia, pero ademas Karen puso su alma en cada interpretación que nos brindó.
Seguramente estará en el paraiso!

She was amazing
Rest in Peace ' KAREN 💜
Pretty song only out of her angelic mouth. Very humbling to hear her sing. Funny and down-to-earth too.
I didn't know Karen But though her music 🎶 I feel like i did RIP Beautiful Karen Carpenter ❤❤❤❤🙌➕️👑📖🙏🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
KAREN CARPENTER merece que se le rindan infinitos homenajes pues estos hermanos entregaron todo su amor por la música y pusieron su trabajo y esfuerzo
Brother and Sister
Así es: Estos hermanos fueron insuperables!!!
solo Ella tenia tan impecable estrella genios los dos pero ella era el alma sin dudas
The industry needs to stop putting pressure on performers to look and act perfect. Enjoy their talent and gifts but stop driving them to their graves with unrealistic demands.
Isn’t that the truth. They literally caused the death of some really great people. Including our beloved Karen
I don't think that is really relevant anymore - very few of them today have any real talent so it is not that big of a deal .
thank you so much for posting this.
Angelic Voice!!
She’s so gorgeous❤
Voice smooth as silk ❤❤
48:55 Best moment to me. HOT duet.
Richard Carpenter and John Bettis they the talent to create such melody such music she just the icing on the cake, her melodious voice so beautiful
This is not English.
John Bettis has gone on to write so many great lyrics.
41:08 Richard was crying when Karen was singing the verse “nobody knew the pain I was going through.
Where? What song? I want to see that
Never a waver or flaw. What control!
I miss Karen @ Richard I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH
