In all my life i have never heard a more hauntingly Beautiful and Angelic voice than that of Karen Carpenter. No one has ever come close and never will. Rest in Peace Karen and know you will never be forgotten
This came out when i was 17 and Im 67and its TIMELESS. Karen had the best female voice in pop bar none. Love her and Richard and thank you Hod for sharing her with us for a season.
Kathleen, there is a Heaven. And those whom have chosen to not believe are in for a whopping surprise. Karen, she's somewhere nice. Bringing joy to countless people... Never harming anyone, that's her. Yeah, Merry Christmas, Darling! GOD Bless Everyone.
One of the best Christmas songs ever from one of the best voices in the universe. Merry Christmas Karen Carpenters. May you continue to sing with the angels in heaven. Rest in eternal peace.🙏❤️🌹
Some have gotten in the "Ballpark", but the total vocal package cannot be duplicated. If a great Artist painted like Picasso, it might be very nice, but we'd still be able to tell it wasn't the original.
No. When I was a teen, a had this rich alto voice and a few thought I was pretty close to her. But sinus infections, age and throat surgeries have destroyed my voice. Oh well. I never was close enough! Richard felt that Dusty Springfield was a decent replacement for a few numbers, her voice had a huskieness though, not this clear as a bell, rich deep yet very feminine voice. Karen was alone in greatness.
It makes me cry buckets too, and you long for the ones that you know you'll never see again, at least for a while, and if that isn't tear worthy I don't know what is, I love you my little Kelly Jean and my Bailey Baby, please come home can't wait to see you in heaven hopefully very soon!😭😭😭
Hard to compare. I feel you are absolutely right. I miss her soul, but her soul lives. Just cant physically hug it. I smaile and cry every Christmas to this song. Every one.
Please do not delete this video because i LOVE this song and grew up listening to the Carpenters and have all their albums!!! I still miss Karen and her angelic voice...so beautiful!!!
I’m a big fan of 80s pop you know Michael Jackson, Madonna, Whitney Houston, Prince, boy George and video game music but when I hear this my god she’s touching my soul and I cried!
I am reminded of all those Christmases that my father spent away from us working abroad to give us a better future. My mom would always sing and record this on cassette tape and send it to my father when Christmas comes. The sacrifice my father did will be forever etched in my heart. The sacrifices of my mom taking care of us while apart from my father is forever with me. This is one christmas song that will always get me. One song I can never sing as I always fold. My mom has gone ahead of us. I feel for my dad. He may never read this but I do love him very much. Now to the song... The lyrics are spot on and the voice... so haunting and beautiful. The Carpenters' music will live on.
+Jack Wolf : This song also brought tears to my eyes while listening to this & thinking about my late ex-girlfriend, who passed away in June 2015, who I had hoped to get back together with. I'm planning on posting this tune on her Facebook Legacy page for the holidays. I miss her greatly...
In 1966 The Carpenters we're tired of the same old Christmas songs and their college music teacher gave them these lyrics he owned since 1944. Richard Carpenter came up with the tune in 15 minutes. They recorded it in 1970. Incredible!! This is a Timeless song it will never get old. I'm thankful they have tons of video out there of them which is rare back then.
I was singing this in a store a couple of days ago and right before the end I stopped to look at something. an elderly gentleman tapped me on the shoulder and asked me 'Please sing that song again. Your voice is beautiful.' So I sang it just for him.
No mere mortal in this crazy world has ever even come close to Karen’s vocal talents and if any so called diva’s are seeing this from 2020 then listen carefully and you might learn a thing or two. This is true natural talent on display as Karen had a voice that was heaven sent and thankfully (but not for us you understand) she is now back with the angels exactly where her angelic voice belong’s. She was without a shadow of a doubt the planet earth’s best female vocalist EVER and I miss her very much.
This Christmas Song was and will always be my Favorite as it brought so many memories, both sweet and sad memories. And Karen Carpenter nailed it in every one’s who have loved and lost a loved one ! Great song, thank you Karen !
53 years Karen sang this song .and now 61 years later shes still loved and remembered for her sweet voice and a beautiful person.Rest in peace and godbless you Karen.🙏Amen🕊🦋🌈💫🌻🌹🌹🌹🌹
Rest in eternal peace in heaven my twin soul Mark (4/26/73 - 7/1/03). Every time I hear this song I will always cry because "I've just one wish on this Christmas eve... I wish I were with you... Merry Christmas Darling."
I don't know about Ya'll, but this has got to be my favorite Christmas song of all-time and for one reason only, It is sung by the one and only Karen Carpenter!
When this song was on TV and the radio, I was in a tragic first marriage. In spite of all the anger and hurt feelings, this song still has a calming effect on me. Karen has a healing voice. My current wife named her daughter after Karen Carpenter. Life is full of surprises. Love you Karen and Richard!
Karen has the voice of an Angel who was taken away from us to soon . The Carpenters are still truly one of the best Musical Groups ever thanks for the music and memories.
This Song And Karen's Heaven Sent Voice Still Gives My Goosebumps and a Tear to My Eye EVERY Time I Hear This. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND GOD SPEED KAREN. YOU WILL BE FOREVER MISSED!
Do Christmas songs come any better than this? Another of Richard's finest compositions, with a beautiful melody, chord structure and perfect lyrics by Frank Pooler. Even its picture sleeve is a joy, opening out into a Christmas card to all the world. In a word, perfection. 👌🎤🎶🎵
One of the best Christmas songs ever by one of the world's best singers. This song is and will always be a classic. Thising song was always played and is still be played at Christmas
My mum always sang this too me...this song makes me cry every year...#MerryChristmas🎁🌟🎄🎅 mummy Pamela Harrington, my family and everyone out there...I'll be back on Christmas to see how everyone is enjoying the time
Her voice lives on and on. You cannot put a voice like this to rest. Was so long ago. The good die young more than not. If there is a heavenly choir, she has to be singing lead. You are truly missed, and renembered.
There are two songs i look forward to hearing during Christmas time. The Christmas song sung by the late great Nat King Cole and Merry Christmas Darling sung by the great Karen Carpenter. Today she would have been 70 years old. It is hard to believe she would be that old and that she has been gone 37 years now. You are more alive than ever Karen and I hope you are happy where you are.
Karen had such a beautiful voice. I remember her passing and was so upset over such a loss. Gone way too soon. This song is and always will be a true Christmas classic in my opinion. Rest in peace, Karen. You touched the world with your beautiful soul and music and we thank you. ❤
I did not know about this song until 1978 when it was apparently re-leased. It was the height of disco but somehow this song was so beautiful and so timeless that despite all of the disco that was popular it just shined. I love this song. There is just something about Karen's voice that is magical for me. I sometimes wonder what she would have sung had she lived longer. God bless you Karen. RIP.
+Frank Burgoyne her voice IS MAGIC.. and why she will always be considered one of if not THEE greatest female singer of romance and love songs... it wasn't just the "sound" of her voice, but how she used it and her phrasing and emoting and her Perfect enunciation as well. no one told the story of a song better then her, and no one sang more TO and FOR YOU as opposed to AT YOU..... her voice IS christmas, romance and love.....
the original is wonderful, but no matter how she sang it, it was a beautiful and moving song, and Karen's voice was always a pleasure to hear. This is the version i remember from when i was a kid, i was in love with Karen Carpenter!!!
What a heart felt song. Karen's singing is so mesmerizing. This song for is a of the most graceful and passionate christmas songs ever recorded. What a great legacy of music Karen left this world. RIP Karen. You are loved. "MERRY CHRISTMAS DARLING.
Wow love you Karen your voice is like An Angel. Always will be never forgotten. It’s December 2020 definitely needed to hear this beautiful song. This year has been very sad.
I wish Karen and John were still alive. The saddest passings for two of the best singers in modern pop history. When you hear this overwhelming torch song (lyrics by Frank Pooler, music by Richard Carpenter) and don't get teared-up listening to Karen's gorgeous voice, you have no heart. Paul McCartney called her the best female vocalist ever, saying that she was "the best female voice in the world: melodic, tuneful and distinctive." "But in my dreams, I'm Christmasing with you."
Thank you a million times over; I love this song and I love the Carpenters! Karen had one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard; miss her every Christmas!!!
Janice Maria Torres janice, it's JUNE 6th and i'm still having christmas with karen, this song is so beautiful and to have the loveliest voice ever singing it who cares whether it's june or december, never be another karen EVER so lets christmas with her all year round. R I P gorgeous angel, xxx.
I love the expressions and feelings Karen put into her song Merry Christmas Darling I listen to it over and over again during Christmas. Thank you for sharing
This is by far THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS SONG EVER!!! RIP Karen, you had the voice of an angel from heaven and there will never be another you here on earth.
I can't even begin to describe how much I love Karen's voice. Probably one of my favorite voices in music! And she was perfect for Christmas arrangements as well!

It's not Christmas till you hear her sing...
For sure ❤
Still listening to her angelic voice in 2024
Will always love her angelic singing 😎
Same here!
In all my life i have never heard a more hauntingly Beautiful and Angelic voice than that of Karen Carpenter. No one has ever come close and never will. Rest in Peace Karen and know you will never be forgotten
You've taken the words out of my mouth. I couldn't agree more. I'm not sure why I'm listening to this in mid-July though...
Everything you said was absolutely right. The Carpenters Christmas songs always had that sense of nostalgia from long ago Christmases.
@@dannywestwood4113 Because anytime is a good time to listen to any song by Karen Carpenter!
have never thought of it like that .. so true !!
A.NY song she sings brings tears to my eyes and I mourn her!!....over and over again.....every time 😢💔
This came out when i was 17 and Im 67and its TIMELESS. Karen had the best female voice in pop bar none. Love her and Richard and thank you Hod for sharing her with us for a season.
I'm in my 30s but her voice and the song are really really amazing.
No one can sing Christmas like Karen did. Grateful that we still have her beautiful voice with us through her recordings.
Karen Oryon I agree with you! Karen is great! The best!🖕👏👏👏
No one can sing anything like Karen Did ……
Timeless, 1970 , 51 years ago and still brings the memories flooding back when I was 15, so beautiful ❤️
She is perfect. This song is perfect. Oy...that voice. Moves me, every single time.
Karen Carpenter has always been one of my favorites. Her voice is velvety smooth and so pleasant to hear.
If there is a heaven then it must sound like this.
George, it does.
I don't believe in heaven but her voice was angelic
Mark Sturdivant oh so Christian to call people fool. False Christians do that, not real ones. And you are going to the false heaven.
Kathleen, there is a Heaven. And those whom have chosen to not believe are in for a whopping surprise. Karen, she's somewhere nice. Bringing joy to countless people... Never harming anyone, that's her. Yeah, Merry Christmas, Darling! GOD Bless Everyone.
Truth.
This is just another version of Karen's Christmas 🎄 gift she shared with us. I'll always love it!❤
My very favorite Christmas song by Karen. No one sings it like her!!!!
Love this song during xmas
I love this song.
Karen's voice is so beautiful.
I'm listening in November 2019.
🎄✨ December in Charlotte, one week away from Xmas🎆🎇
Gorgeous
It’s four days until Christmas in 2019 and I’ve been listening to this song at least 4 times a day in Chino Hills, California
Just a pure sweet and timeless classic. 🎄❤️🎅🏻
I've just one wish on this Christmas Eve!
Love this song, I lost my wife to cancer in 2016 at the age of 46, tears flow every time but I love the words it coveys my feelings so well.
💖💜🧡💛💚🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I lost my mum to cancer on 09-03-2016...she was 58
I'm so sorry for your loss.
One of the very best Christmas songs ever produced by 1 of the very best female vocals of all time!!!
Bravo!!!!!
It was a beautiful song 46 yrs ago and it still is today, it is a very special song to me.
It took on a new meaning for me when my mom died in 1975.
It's a classic that's essential to my Christmas music collection.
Reminds me of my sweet husband of 30 years I lost much to soon. Now he is with Jesus. I love you baby Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Thinking of you both
A magical voice! Grabs you like an overly bold glass of red wine!
Absolutely incredible. I love it more today more than I did in those years ago. Her voice was a gift from God. Thank you so much for this.😊👍
One of the best Christmas songs ever from one of the best voices in the universe. Merry Christmas Karen Carpenters. May you continue to sing with the angels in heaven. Rest in eternal peace.🙏❤️🌹
One of the greatest singers of all time. No one today can come close to sounding like Karen

I get very beautiful goose bump chills hearing this very Beautiful Song.
I'm with you. Merry Chirstmas!
CAN'T STOP CRYING WITH THIS SONG😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🎄
IKR?! I break down by the end of this song EVERY TIME!!! The ending of this song just breaks my heart, just couldn't be any more harmonious!!!
FR songs hits hard❤️🎄
It makes me cry buckets too, and you long for the ones that you know you'll never see again, at least for a while, and if that isn't tear worthy I don't know what is, I love you my little Kelly Jean and my Bailey Baby, please come home can't wait to see you in heaven hopefully very soon!😭😭😭
I know same 😭
Same, 2021
Hands down the greatest female voice of all time. Amazing!
Hard to compare. I feel you are absolutely right. I miss her soul, but her soul lives. Just cant physically hug it. I smaile and cry every Christmas to this song. Every one.
Please do not delete this video because i LOVE this song and grew up listening to the Carpenters and have all their albums!!! I still miss Karen and her angelic voice...so beautiful!!!
Karen had an amazing voice. So sad how she died.
Agree 100%
Gees this song never aged. No young singer can replicate her..
The sexiest song ever by the best female vocalist ever.
Sending this to my son during this pandemic, Dec 24, 2020. I love ya kid!
One of the best and most beautiful Christmas songs. Karen really did have the voice of an angel.
LOVE THE 1970 version- so rich and powerful.
Karen had the voice of an angel. I loved her songs. I know it's been years since she passed away. I miss her.
I’m a big fan of 80s pop you know Michael Jackson, Madonna, Whitney Houston, Prince, boy George and video game music but when I hear this my god she’s touching my soul and I cried!

Karen did have the most beautiful voice..... Tears go down my face every time I hear her golden voice It's so beautiful.. :::sob:::
+Jack Wolf i hear you, me too!...
+Jack Wolf : This song also brought tears to my eyes while listening to this & thinking about my late ex-girlfriend, who passed away in June 2015, who I had hoped to get back together with. I'm planning on posting this tune on her Facebook Legacy page for the holidays. I miss her greatly...
+Jack Wolf I'm the same way, It's hard to listen to her knowing the horrible way she died.
Jack did Karen kill herself by not eating? I can't remember,,
ME TOO! :'(
Hard to believe she recorded this at only 19... What a great voice!!!

One of my all-time favorites is THIS rendition by The Carpenters.
Anyone listening in 2020? What a beautiful voice that brings me to tears
No mere mortal in this crazy world has ever even come close to Karen’s vocal talents and if any so called diva’s are seeing this from 2020 then listen carefully and you might learn a thing or two.

Me too❤
No other artist, musical or otherwise, can fuse hope and pain so beautifully as Karen Carpenter. She is an alchemist in her own league.
This Christmas Song was and will always be my Favorite as it brought so many memories, both sweet and sad memories. And Karen Carpenter nailed it in every one’s who have loved and lost a loved one ! Great song, thank you Karen !
53 years Karen sang this song .and now 61 years later shes still loved and remembered for her sweet voice and a beautiful person.Rest in peace and godbless you Karen.🙏Amen🕊🦋🌈💫🌻🌹🌹🌹🌹
53 years is correct for her original Nov. 1970 release.
Every single Christmas, I return. Its the most amazing Christmas song ever. It isnt sappy. It speaks to the soul. God Bless ya Karen!
To all who have lost, have Hope and Love this holiday season. We deserve to be Happy! RIP Dear Karen
No one can sing like Karen can. Her voice was perfection!!
Rest in eternal peace in heaven my twin soul Mark (4/26/73 - 7/1/03). Every time I hear this song I will always cry because "I've just one wish on this Christmas eve... I wish I were with you... Merry Christmas Darling."
❤
I don't know about Ya'll, but this has got to be my favorite Christmas song of all-time and for one reason only, It is sung by the one and only Karen Carpenter!
Christmas Eve 2021, this song is still in my heart as it was 40 years ago
Brian Wilson says music is God’s voice - here is all the evidence you need. R.I.P. Karen.
Her voice is simply heavenly, its divine
I remember this song so well from my teenage years ..... just a beautiful song .....thank you Karen your music is always in my heart!
When this song was on TV and the radio, I was in a tragic first marriage. In spite of all the anger and hurt feelings, this song still has a calming effect on me. Karen has a healing voice. My current wife named her daughter after Karen Carpenter. Life is full of surprises. Love you Karen and Richard!
and KC said all they wanted to do was to make a little music....I think they did more than that
This song is so great I bet that they play it in heaven ❤
This is my all-time favorite Christmas song, ever!!
As Karen Carpenter left us a priceless gift with her recordings, she is now singing to God and the angels-
This song was new when I and my lovely wife were dating. This truly brings back great memories of 50 years ago. Thanks, NedNickerson2010
For me, this one of the songs that really shows off her effortless breath control and wonderful tone.
I adore it.
Karen at her best.
Heartbreaking to hear this Beautiful Song......
We all wish Karen could spend Christmas with us all.
Karen has the voice of an Angel who was taken away from us to soon . The Carpenters are still truly one of the best Musical Groups ever thanks for the music and memories.
This Song And Karen's Heaven Sent Voice Still Gives My Goosebumps and a Tear to My Eye EVERY Time I Hear This. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND GOD SPEED KAREN. YOU WILL BE FOREVER MISSED!
This is wonderful. Karen Carpenter had a wonderful, rich singing voice.
Do Christmas songs come any better than this? Another of Richard's finest compositions, with a beautiful melody, chord structure and perfect lyrics by Frank Pooler. Even its picture sleeve is a joy, opening out into a Christmas card to all the world. In a word, perfection. 👌🎤🎶🎵
The lyrics are not John Bettis their university choir director Frank Pooler wrote the song 20 years prior to Richard doing the music for it.
@@LoveKaren70 You are quite right - I noted that when I checked the songwriting credit, and will change my post. I assumed the lyrics were by Bettis.
She just absolutely nails this! I especially like the ending- so harmonized. 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎄
Yeah 😭😭😭
Such a simply clear & beautiful voice
One of the best Christmas songs ever by one of the world's best singers. This song is and will always be a classic. Thising song was always played and is still be played at Christmas
the modern 'missing you' Christmas love song. none better that I ever heard.
My mum always sang this too me...this song makes me cry every year...#MerryChristmas🎁🌟🎄🎅 mummy Pamela Harrington, my family and everyone out there...I'll be back on Christmas to see how everyone is enjoying the time
Both Richard and Karen. Truly one-of-a-kind talents. Love❤
my favorite Xmas song! Such an angelic song and brings back so many wonderful memories, along w/ many tears- for all my loved ones I miss!
My first husband died on Christmas Day, 1983. He was 29. I was 26. Every year I play this for him in Heaven. I am now 62. I still miss him so much.
Her voice lives on and on. You cannot put a voice like this to rest. Was so long ago. The good die young more than not. If there is a heavenly choir, she has to be singing lead. You are truly missed, and renembered.
Oh my.. How I love her♥️ I grew up in the 50’s, 60’s and with her in the 70’s. Such an angelic person and voice.
This song never gets old, what an angelic voice she had! We miss you Karen.
Richard - stellar musician, arranger, songwriter. Karen - "The Voice". Thanks for the upload!
There are two songs i look forward to hearing during Christmas time. The Christmas song sung by the late great Nat King Cole and Merry Christmas Darling sung by the great Karen Carpenter. Today she would have been 70 years old. It is hard to believe she would be that old and that she has been gone 37 years now. You are more alive than ever Karen and I hope you are happy where you are.
You know it’s Christmas time when hear this angel 😇
December 21, 2019.......forever timeless.....RIP Miss Carpenter
👏🏿👏🏿
Karen had such a beautiful voice. I remember her passing and was so upset over such a loss. Gone way too soon. This song is and always will be a true Christmas classic in my opinion. Rest in peace, Karen. You touched the world with your beautiful soul and music and we thank you. ❤
I knew my ears weren't deceiving me; I've been hearing this version from childhood!
This song although it makes me sad, I can't feel the Christmas spirit without hearing it

Yes im crying what a voice she has I have always loved this song omg the meaning of it just Brings me to tears RIP KAREN
the orignial, the classic non remiexed to death perfection❤
Heard this while watching, the 2016 Hallmark movie A Heavenly Christmas, especially that one part of the movie and this plays.
When this came out my fiancée was at college in England and I was at college in San Diego- this song tore my heart out- after 50+ years it still does-
Happy birthday to Karen Carpenter her Birth Card ♠️ is Eight 🎱 of Spade Rest in Peace ☮️🕊️ Merry Christmas ☃️🎄 Blessings and Hugs 💖🤗🙏🤗🙏🤗🙏!
Wow love you Karen your voice is like An Angel. Always will be never forgotten. It’s December 2020 definitely needed to hear this beautiful song. This year has been very sad.
I wish Karen and John were still alive. The saddest passings for two of the best singers in modern pop history. When you hear this overwhelming torch song (lyrics by Frank Pooler, music by Richard Carpenter) and don't get teared-up listening to Karen's gorgeous voice, you have no heart. Paul McCartney called her the best female vocalist ever, saying that she was "the best female voice in the world: melodic, tuneful and distinctive." "But in my dreams, I'm Christmasing with you."
We wish you were still with us too, Karen!! So very,very much! Miss you beautiful lady!!
Pooler was their Cal State Long Beach music professor...
@@markhalburn2157 I think I read that was who he was, and they gave much credit for helping them succeed.
@@freeguy77 That song has made Pooler a wealthy man. Richard continues to support CSULB. Ironically, they "dropped out" when they hit it big...
Absolutely beautiful! R.I.P. Karen.
Merry Christmas to my beloved, Draughn. I wish I were with you.❤️
And, thank you, Karen. No one could've sung this song more beautifully.
Thank you a million times over; I love this song and I love the Carpenters! Karen had one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard; miss her every Christmas!!!
Janice Maria Torres janice, it's JUNE 6th and i'm still having christmas with karen, this song is so beautiful and to have the loveliest voice ever singing it who cares whether it's june or december, never be another karen EVER so lets christmas with her all year round. R I P gorgeous angel, xxx.
aces high Well said; an angel, filling heaven with her sweet voice!!
She was the best, still sad she is gone. So I have all her songs, when I listen, she lifts my spirits ❤️❤️
I love the expressions and feelings Karen put into her song Merry Christmas Darling
I listen to it over and over again during Christmas. Thank you for sharing
This is by far THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS SONG EVER!!! RIP Karen, you had the voice of an angel from heaven and there will never be another you here on earth.
I can't even begin to describe how much I love Karen's voice. Probably one of my favorite voices in music! And she was perfect for Christmas arrangements as well!
