It’s May 8 2024 and I’m listening to this beautiful rendition of this love song. Dusty, Karen gone too soon. Thankful for the music they left behind. Richard is a genius. Thank you for this music and memories.
Dusty is phenomenal, even at almost 50 years old when this was recorded she still had her full vocal range and expression. Richard wrote a beautiful song, but it's all Dusty singing it and making it come alive. RIP Queen Dusty.
@@CarolHighfill Richard Carpenter didn't write the lyrics, Pamela Phillips Oland did, Richard Carpenter wrote the music. It's the lead vocalist who gets top billing on a song.
If anyone was to sing this brilliant song it was Karen but Dusty certainly pulls it off with ease. Great arrangement and Dustys vocal is as clean and perfect as Richards music. Poor Dusty and Karen are stars shining in the sky and their legacy of music means that they will not be forgotten, entertaining generations as they always have. ❤
I'll tell ya...this is one of my favorite songs to slow dance too and NO ONE..NO ONE can sing it like Dusty! Rest in peace, dear lady! Those of us who appreciate a TRUE vocalist miss you very much!
This is an excellent song. I think one reason it wasn't bigger (aside from the transition of the decade of the 1980s) is that it served as a haunting reminder of what was.
There was a certain face That filled a thousand nights With all the sweetest dreams And promises of paradise But that face was gone When the dawn would come and steal you Yet, I still could feel you Waiting just a kiss away I'd surely know your face Your love would cast a spell I'd recognize each curve and line of you, I knew it well Now at last you're here and I can tell Something in your eyes I see Is all I ever wanted And something in your smile for me Is calling out my name Your eyes, it seems Are mirrors of my dreams In ways I can't explain. And my heart will never be the same We never said a word As if we'd always known But through the bittersweet of waiting We were not alone Now we're close enough For the touch of love to find us Fantasies designed us But they never really could Begin to measure you No pictures ever do And as I watch you framed in sunlight In a sky of blue I know what my life's been leading to Something in your eyes I see Is all I ever wanted And something in your smile for me Is calling out my name Your eyes, it seems Are mirrors of my dreams In ways I can't explain. And my heart will never be the same Something in your eyes I see Is all I've ever wanted And something in your smile for me Is calling out my name Your eyes, it seems Are mirrors of my dreams In ways I can't explain. And my heart will never be the same And my heart will never be the same Something in your eyes
A veritable masterclass in songwriting, arrangement, and the art of singing; even the music alone can tug the heartstrings. I cannot help feeling a bit wistful, wondering how Karen would have done it.
This was a hit for Richard and Dusty here in the US, Canada and Australia. It was a top easy listening hit, received weeks of Radio play and featured daily on VH1.
As a teen in the late 70's/early 80's I LOVED THE CARPENTERS! I wore their albums out. I recently read "Little Girl Blue" and since then have searched You Tube for any memories of Richard and Karen. What a talented, amazing gift Richard and Karen have given to our lifetime. I came across this video today and truly enjoyed it. Richard looks very happy and he and Dusty together, although different, were so good together. It was a nice memory to come across today. Thank you for all you have done Richard!
Beautiful song. Richard Carpenter should get credit for composing/arranging, but I think the Dusty Springfield should have gotten standard headline credit as the lead singer.
This was from his solo album. The song was originally intended for Karen to sing but Dusty made a guest appearance on vocals. You can tell by the tone and the key that it was written with Karen in mind, but Dusty does a great job.
Richard Carpenter is a class act all the way. I feel like he's been a friend of mine my whole life, and the same with Barry ... thanks, guys, for all the music.
The first time I heard this song it brought tears to my eyes.. Dusty sounds so soulful and husky only she could have done justice to this song. I am certain it would have been a hit. you can tell the chemistry between her and Richard is so good.
I couldn't agree with you more. I read that Karen idolized Dusty Springfield's voice, as so many others did. Both ladies had remarkable phrasing and emotion. And what voices !!
I wish they would have done more together. Of course Dusty isn't Karen, but Karen wasn't Dusty. They were both singularly unique talents. And Richard and Dusty worked beautifully together. You really have to pay attention to hear how beautiful this song is on all levels. Should have been a massive hit.
I never heard of thsi song till I got it on 7 inch single last Sat for 20p, and I have to say its one of the most gorgeous songs ever, and its one of my all time faves,
Dusty Springfield - Something In Your Eyes 1986年由木匠兄妹的Richard Carpenter哥哥所寫， 然後請當時的國民天后Dusty Springfield所唱， 雖然妹妹再1983年已因厭食症過世， 這首歌也是緬懷妹妹凱倫的一首歌， 相當好聽又動容的歌曲。 There was a certain face 曾有一張特別的容顏 That filled a thousand nights 盈溢在千百個夜晚 With all the sweetest dreams 以最甜美的夢境 And promises of paradise 和天堂的誓約 But that face was gone 但那容顏已消逝 When the dawn would come and steal you 當黎明前來將你偷走 Yet I still could feel you 我依然可以感覺到你 Waiting just a kiss away 等在一個吻之外 I'd surely know your face 我當然認得你的容顏 When love would cast its spell 當愛情施展魔咒 I'd recognize each curve and line of you 我能辨認出你身上的每一道弧線 I know it well 我是如此的熟悉 Now at last you're here and I can tell 如今你在這兒，我看得出來 Something in your eyes I see 你的眼裡有些什麼 Is all I've ever wanted 正是我曾經想要的 Something in your smile for me 你的笑容對我來說 Is calling out my name 好似在呼喚我的名字 Your eyes it seems are mirrors of my dreams 你的雙眼好像是我夢的鏡子 In ways I can't explain 我無法解釋 And my heart will never be the same 我的心再也不像從前 We never said a word 我們從未說過一句話 As if we'd always known 就像我們已經明白 That through the bittersweet of waiting 在苦甜摻雜的等待之後 We were not alone 我們並不孤獨 Now we're close enough 此刻，我們靠得夠近了 Oh the touch of love to find us 足以讓愛的接觸發現 Fantasies designed us 讓幻想擺佈 But they never really could begin to measure you 但它們從來都無法衡量你 No pictures ever do 即使照片也辦不到 And as I watch you framed 當我望著你逐漸成型 in sunlight and a sky of blue 在陽光和藍天下 I know what my life's been leading to 我明白了自己人生的去向 蝦米饅頭
Today is the first day I have EVER seen this complete video! Had just half of it on VHS for many, many years. Always loved this song - not sure, but intended for Karen's interpretation? Dusty - the BEST British female vocalist my country has EVER produced does a phenomenal job here. It's the highlight of Richards first solo album - followed by Dionne's cut 'In Love Alone' - also worth a listen to.
This is one of the many songs where you can hear the instrument of her voice and that phrasing and diction that was edible as the apple she was seen taking a bite from on one of the many pictures... By the way I first heard this one night on late night radio station and raved about it to everyone but no one believed me. Yet it would be impossible for any one to mistake such a voice and the Lady it belonged to.
The Magic that a group of siblings can have when they work together can never be duplicated, nor even imitated. But I think Richard and Dusty came as humanly possible, because this song is incredibly touching and beautiful in so many levels!
This is an amazing song! Love Dusty's singing and Richard's background chorus. I have always loved, just love, background vocals that sound like Richard. I mean loooooove it.
In case you haven't, listen to this from the same album (Richard's "Time" from 1987)...ruclips.net/video/NzIGeJAUssM/видео.html This wondrous a cappella vocal sounds like Richard, because every note of it is...there's one chord where you'd swear Karen's there too, but she'd been gone four years...the flugelhorn solo is Herb Alpert, the A of A&M Records with whom Carpenters spent their whole major label career...
@@stevetournay3731 - Thank you. I purchased the "Time" album from Amazon after I posted my original comment a year ago or so. It costed me a pretty penny for a new CD version and well worth it. Love the album.
No more distinctive & unique voices like Dusty Springfield, Karen Carpenter, Linda Ronstadt, Rita Coolidge & Suzi Quatro in recent music industry today. It's really sad that most of them are gone now
I'm surprised how much Dusty was able, despite having a totally different vocal timbre and a lot more soul in her voice, to capture Karen's vocal inflection. I chalk it up to Richard's production skills.
This was an amazing song. I first discovered it by buying Richard Carpenter's CD when I saw Dusty was singing on it. Too bad it never made it big but I will always remember it.
I remember the first time I heard this song, I thought it would have been a great song for Karen Carpenter, not knowing it was Richard's song. I was fortunate to be able to meet The Carpenters after a concert in Philadelphia. Truly great talents! This is a great song - Sally, this one's for you.
It’s May 8 2024 and I’m listening to this beautiful rendition of this love song. Dusty, Karen gone too soon. Thankful for the music they left behind. Richard is a genius. Thank you for this music and memories.
And that is why Richard Carpenter was one of the greatest musical composers and arrangers of his generation. RIP Karen and Dusty.
Dusty is phenomenal, even at almost 50 years old when this was recorded she still had her full vocal range and expression. Richard wrote a beautiful song, but it's all Dusty singing it and making it come alive. RIP Queen Dusty.
I agree but she would not have had a song to sing without the lyrics.
@@CarolHighfill Richard Carpenter didn't write the lyrics, Pamela Phillips Oland did, Richard Carpenter wrote the music. It's the lead vocalist who gets top billing on a song.
@@gayle5967 thanks for the update -- both should be in the rock and roll hall of fame as well as soul sister Dusty!
One of the most beautiful songs ever created. Dusty was a true star. Dearly missed. HOW was this version not a number one hit?!
Always enjoyed Dusty's voice. The emotion and texture.
Such a great song.A deeply nostalgic sound. It marries the soul of the Carpenters and Dusty. Karen would have loved it.
Big Brother Richard made sure he picked the right singer for his sister's song. Dusty did a great job.
I think Karen would have done this song justice as well, but no doubt, Dusty sounds fantastic.
Dusty's beautiful voice and Richards impeccable arrangement. Miss both Karen and dusty!
If anyone was to sing this brilliant song it was Karen but Dusty certainly pulls it off with ease. Great arrangement and Dustys vocal is as clean and perfect as Richards music. Poor Dusty and Karen are stars shining in the sky and their legacy of music means that they will not be forgotten, entertaining generations as they always have. ❤
One of the greatest - yet, ironically least well known - songs ever written. Loved both Dusty & Karen. Both taken far too young. RIP
...this had HIT written all over it. Great vocals/production and strength and should have made it to #1. Thank you.
I agree. It appears on very few of Dusty's CDs, yet it is almost my favourite song of all.
Probaly because Richard is top billing. So it doesn't show on her CDs.
💖😢🙏💖
I do remember my college days listening this song
How the hell did this only make number 84 here in the UK it's amazing, always has me in tears.
Dusty & Karen were two of the greatest singers of all time - but both very different. Ironically, this song was perfect for Dusty. RIP both.
This should have been a huge hit. Dusty gives a wonderful performance
2018 and still enjoying Dusty's voice,
valcye Me too!
it was actually on the billboard adult contemporary
Wonderful! What memorie! Salute you from Argentina...
#12 Adult Contemporary Radio play.
I'll tell ya...this is one of my favorite songs to slow dance too and NO ONE..NO ONE can sing it like Dusty! Rest in peace, dear lady! Those of us who appreciate a TRUE vocalist miss you very much!
who in their right mind would dislike this music? wtf?
This is an excellent song. I think one reason it wasn't bigger (aside from the transition of the decade of the 1980s) is that it served as a haunting reminder of what was.
I wish Richard would re release this!! I think 2nd time around it would be a huge hit!!
Well it wouldn't be Richard's decision, it would be the choice of whoever controls the A&M catalogue now (Sony?)...
There was a certain face
That filled a thousand nights
With all the sweetest dreams
And promises of paradise
But that face was gone
When the dawn would come and steal you
Yet, I still could feel you
Waiting just a kiss away
I'd surely know your face
Your love would cast a spell
I'd recognize each curve and line of you,
I knew it well
Now at last you're here and I can tell
Something in your eyes I see
Is all I ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same
We never said a word
As if we'd always known
But through the bittersweet of waiting
We were not alone
Now we're close enough
For the touch of love to find us
Fantasies designed us
But they never really could
Begin to measure you
No pictures ever do
And as I watch you framed in sunlight
In a sky of blue
I know what my life's been leading to
Something in your eyes I see
Is all I ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same
Something in your eyes I see
Is all I've ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same
And my heart will never be the same
Something in your eyes
This song tears my heart to pieces…..what a beautiful song. Love all 3❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for writing out all the lyrics - so beautiful.
BEAUTIFUL COLLABERATION SET TO MUSIC! R.I.P. DUSTY & KAREN❤❤
I nerver heard this song until now. Its very good! 🤗🤗❤❤
Dusty is back for good. Number one!
10-15-22 Happy 76th Birthday Richard! Love You!
A veritable masterclass in songwriting, arrangement, and the art of singing; even the music alone can tug the heartstrings. I cannot help feeling a bit wistful, wondering how Karen would have done it.
Dusty's rendition of this song is just very extraordinary! It is like it was made for her!!
Richard Carpenter wrote it for her. There was no other rendition before this
@@henrymurphychronicles2488 No really???
@@Airwindy89 Written by Richard Carpenter and included in his solo album Time. Released some time in 1987 or 88.
@@henrymurphychronicles2488 Got it. 🙄
RIP Dusty, Karen and Tony Peluso. Three great talents gone way too soon.
RIP! Both of you great women! Cat.
This was a hit for Richard and Dusty here in the US, Canada and Australia. It was a top easy listening hit, received weeks of Radio play and featured daily on VH1.
Great song 👌
Dusty was the best ever.I would stop doing anything,to listen to her.sad lost!!
Beautiful
Just Fantastic, grandios 🥰
This would have been an instant hit if Karen would have still been with us, but Dusty and Rich did awesome. Rest in peace Karen, Dusty, and Tony!
the voice is so gentle soft and really touch my heart. RIP dusty springfield.
Definately Dusty what a fantastic song should have been a massive hit - with a touch of Carpenters RIP to two great ladies of song.
One of the greatest llove song of all time..❤❤❤😭😭
Love her voice, what a woman!
Touching! Try the piano version!
My Dusty favorite... one of the most beautiful recordings ever
One of my favorite song during my teenage years and until now...
I always loved Dusty Springfield
DUSTY DID A SUPERB JOB SINGING THIS..
RICHARD'S ARRANGEMENT IS ALSO SUPERB..
DUSTY WAS A GREAT SINGER ..
Me too
What a beautiful song .dusty sang it so beautifully
I agree 100%. It's the same thing everywhere....It's nothing like old performers with distinctive beautiful voices.
As a teen in the late 70's/early 80's I LOVED THE CARPENTERS! I wore their albums out. I recently read "Little Girl Blue" and since then have searched You Tube for any memories of Richard and Karen.

I really appreciate true talent.dusty you were one of the best voices of all time. we miss you
I don't even remember this song. It's a masterpiece. Thanks RC and Dusty and Ned.
It seems like your out of this world when you hear Ms dusty golden voice you may now rest
Sounds like heaven. Nothing compares. This is what you called music.
Very nostalgic, hearing this song takes me back to the 80's, i just close my eyes and feel as though i'm in that era again.
the song just suits her sultry husky voice...love..lots of love!!!
Beautiful song. Richard Carpenter should get credit for composing/arranging, but I think the Dusty Springfield should have gotten standard headline credit as the lead singer.
100% agree!!!!
I agree: at the very least credit in corner should have read, "(feat. Dusty Springfield)". Very odd that it didn't...
I think he wanted to take the spotlight off her! I read she was furious about it!
This was from his solo album. The song was originally intended for Karen to sing but Dusty made a guest appearance on vocals. You can tell by the tone and the key that it was written with Karen in mind, but Dusty does a great job.
Richard Carpenter is a class act all the way. I feel like he's been a friend of mine my whole life, and the same with Barry ... thanks, guys, for all the music.

Beautiful. So glad Dusty sang this song for the Carpenters. Touches the heart really.
The first time I heard this song it brought tears to my eyes.. Dusty sounds so soulful and husky only she could have done justice to this song. I am certain it would have been a hit. you can tell the chemistry between her and Richard is so good.
It was a modest radio hit in Canada and Australia...
I have this song on my iphone and listen to it when driving. i get teary eyes!
one of the TIMELESS voice of all time 5 star and 2 thumbs up for this
I couldn't agree with you more. I read that Karen idolized Dusty Springfield's voice, as so many others did. Both ladies had remarkable phrasing and emotion. And what voices !!

Dusty Springfield - Something In Your Eyes
1986年由木匠兄妹的Richard Carpenter哥哥所寫，
然後請當時的國民天后Dusty Springfield所唱，
雖然妹妹再1983年已因厭食症過世，
這首歌也是緬懷妹妹凱倫的一首歌，
相當好聽又動容的歌曲。
There was a certain face
曾有一張特別的容顏
That filled a thousand nights
盈溢在千百個夜晚
With all the sweetest dreams
以最甜美的夢境
And promises of paradise
和天堂的誓約
But that face was gone
但那容顏已消逝
When the dawn would come and steal you
當黎明前來將你偷走
Yet I still could feel you
我依然可以感覺到你
Waiting just a kiss away
等在一個吻之外
I'd surely know your face
我當然認得你的容顏
When love would cast its spell
當愛情施展魔咒
I'd recognize each curve and line of you
我能辨認出你身上的每一道弧線
I know it well
我是如此的熟悉
Now at last you're here and I can tell
如今你在這兒，我看得出來
Something in your eyes I see
你的眼裡有些什麼
Is all I've ever wanted
正是我曾經想要的
Something in your smile for me
你的笑容對我來說
Is calling out my name
好似在呼喚我的名字
Your eyes it seems are mirrors of my dreams
你的雙眼好像是我夢的鏡子
In ways I can't explain
我無法解釋
And my heart will never be the same
我的心再也不像從前
We never said a word
我們從未說過一句話
As if we'd always known
就像我們已經明白
That through the bittersweet of waiting
在苦甜摻雜的等待之後
We were not alone
我們並不孤獨
Now we're close enough
此刻，我們靠得夠近了
Oh the touch of love to find us
足以讓愛的接觸發現
Fantasies designed us
讓幻想擺佈
But they never really could begin to measure you
但它們從來都無法衡量你
No pictures ever do
即使照片也辦不到
And as I watch you framed
當我望著你逐漸成型
in sunlight and a sky of blue
在陽光和藍天下
I know what my life's been leading to
我明白了自己人生的去向

Feels good it goes deep to the music soul.....

Made for one of the greatest singers ever and sung by one of the greatest singers ever. If not Karen.....Dusty. They BOTH should still be here.....
said as only sonny crockett could say..i ...guess
It's the Miami in me, darlin'.....
No more distinctive & unique voices like Dusty Springfield, Karen Carpenter, Linda Ronstadt, Rita Coolidge & Suzi Quatro in recent music industry today. It's really sad that most of them are gone now
everybody sounds the same nowadays because of autotune...no more unique voices
Music industry is so commercial and less art these days Leaning towards formula hits.
So true..i miss the old times, songs from 80's and 90's are the best.
This is one terrific piece of music! Thanks Dusty and Tony for being a part of this may you two R.I.P...we'll miss you!
Every time I hear this song I feel like crying!!!
What a beautiful collaboration. My 2 favorite singers in the world making music with another famous Carpenter.
At different times.
Dusty was the best, he should have given her the credit totally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Apparently Richard listed the song as a RC track and didn’t give Dusty lead billing. lets face it... its a Dusty Springfield song to the fans.
This is why I was actually confused. I was like that def isn't Richard Carpenter 😂😂😂
I'm surprised how much Dusty was able, despite having a totally different vocal timbre and a lot more soul in her voice, to capture Karen's vocal inflection. I chalk it up to Richard's production skills.
Somehow also similar in range, softness, velvety rechnest , Husky Tone, speaking crooning technique, balanced voice and never oversinging
Simply beautiful
Absolutely beautiful and moving.
Just beautiful Dusty and Richard.
This was an amazing song. I first discovered it by buying Richard Carpenter's CD when I saw Dusty was singing on it. Too bad it never made it big but I will always remember it.
Dusty is an admirable stand-in for Karen. Both were giants in this genre. I miss them both, terribly. One of my favorites of Dusty.
iloveyou 4ever joyce yadao and callie angel😢mag iingat kau lgi .mhal na mahal ko kayu .
Excellent!
What a beautiful song
To night..when i hear this song.. I feel flying in the sky.
2021 and still listening...
I remember the first time I heard this song, I thought it would have been a great song for Karen Carpenter, not knowing it was Richard's song. I was fortunate to be able to meet The Carpenters after a concert in Philadelphia. Truly great talents! This is a great song - Sally, this one's for you.
Always Love this Songs...
