The day she died I cried the whole day. I still miss that voice to this day.
I was a man in my late twenties when she died and I cried too.
News came over the radio in my car, of course I cried.
Not again until Amy!
me too, as she was and remains my favorite singer.. i remember exactly where i was and who else was in the room..
I left my own comment about the day she died. For me the shock was so great that when given the news, it simply would not register. Karen Carpenter? Like, the singer? Dead? Oh, this can't be right. This has to be some kind of mistake. It's been nearly 40 years and I can still tell you where I was when I heard.
Your not alone!!!! The Only celebrity that made me cry for days and days!!!
She is singing about depression. Her voice goes straight to your soul. Noone will ever equal her voice. Angels in heaven can only hope to be her backup vocalists
I have been listening to the Carpenters since the 70s and it doesn’t matter how many times you listen to these songs delivered by Karen they still sound wonderful and full of emotion .
Same here. This song brings back such wonderful memories.
I find myself wondering who is the "best". Karen Carpenter, Nancy Wilson, Arethra Franklin, or Patty Smith. Then I realize the power of "and".
I'd say they broke the mold after making Karen Carpenter, but there never was a mold. Handcrafted and one of a kind. Such a great loss.
Agreed. No one since could compare. I think even Pat Benatar would agree.
In my view the only voice that was close to Karen was Judith Durham of the Seekers. But still in another universe.
That was beautifully said!⚘
@@jamesmorgan4121 You nailed it James. I just missed the Seekers as I came to musical awareness with The Carpenters and then discovered the seekers about 20 years ago. Fell in love with Judith and flew to London to attend their final concert of the Golden Jubilee in Royal Albert Hall. I introduce everyone I meet to Judith and The Seekers.
Agreed! I miss watching her but will have to make do with videos. Her voice is so pure.
Karen could make any rainy day or any Monday just fine with that gift of her voice.
I met her the day before she passed away, I was a mechanic at a bowling alley in Downey she was bowling with a friend, one of the only times I cried, I was 18
That's incredible!! 😲 Richard said she had just recently gained 30 pounds back to quickly, and it was a strain on her heart. I have always wondered if that was totally true. Did she actually look more healthy? What was her mood like? I can only imagine how sad it made you that next day...I am so sorry. You might have felt like...if only you had known. But, you had absolutely no way of knowing, and what could you have said or done?
Wow...
32 when she died. She was still just a baby. So many of us would like to go back in a time machine and rescue her. Understanding how to spot and treat eating disorders early has come a long way since then. What a sweet angel of a voice.
I was 22 and such a shock.
When I was your age I couldn't admit that this was a beautiful song. My friends would have made fun of me. I love that you can listen to this kind of music and appreciate it.
If I were listing to music that was 45 yrs old when I was his age, I would have been listing to music of 1930. Probably could have found it in the very old, back bins of the record stores.
I had no trouble ! Didn't care. Loved Saint Karen then.... miss her now.
@@1calvinfunny1 That's funny you say that, cuz I think that quite often. I wouldn't have even dreamed of listening to my parent's music, who were born in the late 20s.
@@1calvinfunny1 funny i always loved the andrew sissters and alot of the swing era
@@k_salter It's amazing how things have changed....my 16 year old son has recently discovered Frank Sinatra...he also likes The Beatles and Elton John...
Saw them in 1972, Karen blew me away . She was 1)one of the best female singers of the 20th century -and all-time.2)she was one of the best drummers/singers of all time.
so lucky
I was a kid in the early 70s who could not sit for 2 seconds -- I was wreaking havoc any chance I got. My mother used to listen to the radio during the day and every time a Carpenters song came on, it would immediately stop me in my tracks. I would sit there, mesmerized by this incredibly beautiful and warm voice, until the song was over. I still fall in a trance even to this day.
I cry when I hear Karen Carpenter. She was one of the best singers ever recorded! RIP Karen 1950-1983
I'm a drummer who sings - Karen Carpenter

She had to be forced to get up front and sing. She loved her drums.
She had a BEAUTIFUL voice. Too bad mommy favored Richard.
Just like Phil Collins.
@@mrbear1302 Not quite. Karen's MUCH easier on the eyes. LOL
One of the greatest musical talents of the 20th Century. Glad you are discovering, appreciating her gifts.
Her voice was pure magic. She sang so effortlessly and her voice had such a mesmerizing quality to it. The greatest female vocalist of the rock era in my opinion . . and there's not a close second.
She was beautiful with an angelic voice. I wish she could have seen herself through our eyes. My favorite singer of all time.
You take that incredible voice, add the emotion in her voice, the passion and feeling she puts into a song, PLUS her drumming and you have something that will never be forgotten or replaced.
I got a lump in my throat listening to this. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard it. A flood of memories came back. ♥️
She was the best female vocalist of all time. I cry when she sings there never will be another Karen Carpenter
you got that right.
Karen had such a beautiful and calming voice. This particular song makes me feel happy and sad at the same time. Also, Richard Carpenter was a very accomplished pianist. Many people overlook this.
Also an incredible arranger
Richard is still writing songs for other artists too I’m pretty sure worth a Google search IMO 💁🏼♀️
Simply the best female singer I've ever heard period
I remember her passing away back in 83 ,I think she was 32/33 amazing singer, the voice of an angel and a fine drummer
First concert I ever went to was the first Carpenters tour after they had some hits. Karen was the drummer for the tour. Bawled my eyes out when she died.
Karen had the gift to feel the music and lyrics and find a way to share that with her audience. Her vocals are not flashy with big belts or whistles notes. Rather, she was supremely skilled, able to deliver near pitch-perfect takes with immaculate phrasing, while switching easily between just the right tone colors to carry the emotional heart of the song.
Wow, you nailed it. Best description of Karen's magic. I can't think of anyone who comes close to her.
Karen was amazing. You should watch some of the drumming videos of her. She never really found that "love" of her life. She married once and he just used her for her money and treated her badly. A shame she didn't really believe how amazing she really was herself. Really good reaction. Thanks for listening to this one.
He thought she was made of $$$. Tom Burris was always asking Karen for loans, from what I understand.
He was a twat , she deserved to be happy
Her drums for her, were a security blanket, she felt comfortable behind drums. it’s where she could hide self issues about her appearance, which is sad because it was all in her head, which was triggered after reading some negative comments about herself in a magazine.
I was afraid that you were going to miss seeing her play drums while reading the lyrics. Glad you switched back in time. Such an amazing woman with a one in 20 billion voice.
Such an incredible voice. Pure,clear with emotion in every syllable
Right after it ended I said out loud, "What a beautiful song" and three seconds later you said exactly the same thing. This song is as beautiful today as the day it was recorded. ❤️
I was lucky enough to see them in concert such a long long time ago.
Wow, you were lucky. I've only seen their concert in Japan
Great memories of yesteryear.. I'm 55 and love these amazing oldies... Thank you Daniel... We lost an amazing voice years ago... The poor girl just didn't have a chance back in those days... Her brother did a concert not to long ago with her on a back screen it was so emotional... She fought with depression for years.
Yes she was so lonely and should have been loved. R.I.P you are so missed. Out of all the celebrities that have died she is the one I cant get over. And all the beautiful music we all have missed out on.
I love to see young folks appreciating the music I loved so much when I was young myself! Thanks for showcasing the Carpenters!
there are clips of Paul Williams as an actor, you'd get a kick out of them. He was always cast as "a funny little guy" on shows like the Love Boat, but definitely got some props for Planet of the Apes. His songwriting skills of course are impeccable, and his most important legacy.
Aside from his acting and songwriting, I always loved his singing voice as well. It's almost like he got so well known for writing hits for others, that people tended to overlook his own singing. He really was a triple threat.
@@margaretsmith756 I remember him having a bit of a lilt when he sang too. It's hard to compare his own version of Evergreen with Streisand's which is just a classic, but since he wrote it he brings something really pure to the table. I always loved his Muppet collaborations too.
OMG I remember him being a judge on The Gong Show. LOL
Paul Williams just an old fashioned love song is the best thing you will hear today. Ahead of his time and the rabbit hole you will find when you look into it will make your head spin and eyes widen 👀
Margaret Smith I love all of Paul’s music. It’s hard for me to pick a favorite, but his song “a little bit of love” is so beautiful. I try to always remember the line
Every act of kindness
is a little bit of love we leave behind
Your analysis is amazing 👏👏 she was so multitalented. I love this video where she’s drumming, that was her original love. As they grew more popular she was featured more as the lead singer less drummer. Her voice is so soothing.
Our Karen. gifted, shy, fragile...
Godspeed for one of the purest voices to ever live.
Karen: the voice from heaven also was a top flight drummer. She was a gift to us, taken too soon. RIP Karen.
I grew up with the Carpenters I was 12 when they first come out in 1969 she had the voice of an Angel and she was actually my first crush...💙💙💙 They were also the first concert I ever saw I just turned 16, they played in Kitchener Ontario Canada October 23, 1973
"Her voice is so incredible". Those words have probably been spoken by everyone who's ever heard her sing.
An angel we had for a very short time. So glad we have the music.
In the video you’ll see that Karen is playing the drums! She was phenomenal.

She didn’t play the drums on the studio recordings. Hal Blaine did, though she certainly could have.
Can't go wrong with Karen Carpenter
you got that right
Whoever recommended reacting to Karen Carpenter's drum solo...YES! Looked it up yesterday. A must watch.
I too cried the day she died, and listening to her songs still leaves a ach in my heart.
If you want to see KC truly happy, yes, watch one of the videos of her doing drum solos for TV specials. You never see that joy on her face when she's singing...
Karen was a beautiful person. Her brother loved her so much. Such a loss for her family, her fans but more importantly herself. She will always be missed.
Paul Williams and The Carpenters were always intertwined for me, because of this song and “We’ve Only Just Begun”. Paul is an incredible songwriter. His tour de force was the movie “Phantom of the Paradise”, a Brian de Palma film based on the Faust legend. He wrote all of the music for that movie, which displays an incredible range. He was also the primary character/villain Swan, highlighting his acting chops. I wish I could watch you react to the whole movie! It’s almost entirely camp, but high-level camp; and the music is indispensable. Hunt it down - it’s a joy.
Phantom of the Paradise is one of my all time favorite movies along with Scareface. Love De Palma.
I always loved her voice
She really first showed her drumming talent live in 1968 when they first appeared on TV. They were called the Dick Carpenter Trio. They performed Dancing In The Street. Karen sang and played the drums in a way that blew me away. She was perfect in her drum rolls as she sang at the same time.
Yes, someone always cares about you. Sometimes you forget, and that’s when you get the blues. That’s life.
Simply the best female singer I've ever heard
We adored everything the Carpenters did. Her voice is mesmerising and her drumming really adds to the dramatic effect. It was later in the 70s I realised that a lot of their songs were written by Paul Williams, who wrote a lot of hits for others too. I love his quirky voice.
My favorite by them. Thanks Daniel. You're a good soul.
Open a phonebook to any page. If Karen sang the names and addresses it would win a Grammy!
The style and choice of songs from the Carpenters were never my favorites, but oh what an incredible voice she had. I really wish she would have lived to sing with Alison Krauss, another angelic voice. Karen's contralto and Alison's soprano would have blended beautifully.
I don't know how many times I wish I could have picked her up and held her until she understood how loved she was. Reality just doesn't work that way. I am sure nobody realized the horrible sadness and pain she was hiding inside.
A heartfelt thank you for featuring Karen Carpenter on your RUclips channel. I'm quite elated that someone like you, who's from the younger generation, are appreciating the musical talent of Karen which I believe is underrated and underappreciated. I hope you'll feature/react/review more of their songs in the near future.
Karen Carpenter was a phenomenal drummer. There are various videos here on RUclips that showcase her drumming. Sadly, most of them are from after the anorexia took hold and she's very thin. She never missed a beat drumming, and never missed a note singing. Truly amazing.
Thank you, and please continue doing more Carpenters going forward!
Daniel, if you want to see something amazing, watch the you tube video of Karen Carpenter doing a drum solo. She is a phenomenally talented drummer in addition to being
a world class singer. Klaatu Barada Nikto.

You are so right.
There are two of those, one from one of their TV specials, the other also filmed for TV but from a concert in England circa 1976. In both, a joy is visible on KC's face that's never quite there when she sings...

Vocal perfection 🥰
A favorite, with great lyrics, is This Masquerade, written by the co writer of Superstar, Leon Russell.
Karen gone but will never be forgotten
Love this song by Karen. There hasn’t been anyone with her type of voice since. It’s a wonderful song, so simple yet speaks volumes. We’ve all been there. Just blue and sad and yet if you have someone who loves you that’s all you need. Thanks for your great reaction.
Her voice is one of the best and I never get tired of hearing her sing. She’s also a very accomplished drummer. If you’d like to see some more upbeat performances check out some videos that showcase her drumming. She looks very happy and you can tell she’s having fun. Knowing her tragic story it’s nice to see her happy. ❤️
You are an old soul, your interpretation of the lyrics REALLY impressed me. RIP Karen we love you.
Two big hits were "We've Only Just Begun' ("White lace and promises..."- played a lot at wedding receptions) and 'Close to You". If you like covers, they also sang the Beatles 'Ticket to Ride' in the typical Carpenters' style. They've had many great songs, but even their so-so stuff is easy on the ears and pleasant to listen to. While they had their audience back then, music was trending elsewhere. It's nice that their talents are being recognized in an era of Auto-Tune and synthesized beats. Can't go wrong with a real instruments and great vocals. ALSO, can't discount Richard's talents behind the recordings. He played a big part in their success that many people don't appreciate..
Was blessed to see them in October of 73.I remember that they got a local school(Orchard Park) to bring students in to do backup vocals on “Sing”.Her vocals and Richard’s arrangements were incredible.
Well, for a happy song check out "Close to You" and "Top of the World".
They also have a nice cover of "Ticket to Ride" by the Beatles.
Around Christmas time, any song off their christmas album would be awesome. Love their cover of "I'll be home for Christmas".
Their Christmas Portrait album is my Go-To, play the whole thing WITH HEADPHONES from beginning to end. Seamless (due, I'm sure to brother Richard's fine arranging skills).
That cover of "Ticket To Ride", from their 1969 debut album, was Carpenters' first single. It did fairly well...but was then completely eclipsed the next year by two monster hits, "Close To You" (a Burt Bacharach song) and "We've Only Just Begun" (Paul Williams)...
This is one one of my favorite songs by the Carpenters and the soothing voice of Karen Carpenter can't be matched. All their songs also have so much meaning. This song made it to number 2 on the charts in 1971. Great song selection.
That ending puts goosebumps on my goosebumps.
"I Need to be in Love" was the best thing she ever sang, and it said a lot about her.
If you're doing a holiday theme, you can't do Christmas without doing The Carpenters' "Merry Christmas Darling" and "The Christmas Song". They did a whole album of holiday music which I play starting Thanksgiving Day continuing through New Years'. Karen's always been able to make you "feel". Not all singers can make you "feel". The radio is filled with songs that are testaments to the ordinary. But in 1971, The Carpenters beat out The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, The Jackson 5, and Chicago for having the Best Contemporary Vocal Performance by a Group. That's how really extraordinary they are, because other musicians in the academy vote for the winners, and Karen and Richard beat out The Beatles, The Greatest Group of All Time. Amazing! You seem to me to be like a young Richard Carpenter with your interest in music. I hope the future holds for you as much success if not more as The Carpenters' had. Maybe someone will be talking about your music 40 years from now and doing reviews. Wouldn't that be fantastic!
Karen's rendition of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" is my absolute favorite.
@@SaverioP Mine too. It's just not Christmas until I hear that song done by Karen.
@@SaverioP DITTO Rick.
Actually there were two Carpenters Christmas albums, "Christmas Portrait" and "An Old Fashioned Christmas", but the second one was released a year after Karen's death and her vocals on there are mainly outtakes from the first project. (But of course Karen Carpenter outtakes are better than most singers' intended finished product. Several of her classic vocal tracks were work leads, simple rough cuts sung just to familiarize the band with a song. Karen though would just sing them faultlessly the first time out. Her vocal on "Superstar" is like that. With the lyrics read off a piece of paper, that vocal, which ended up as a single and became a big hit, is the very first time she ever sang the song...)
I think you would really enjoy The Rainbow Connection song by the Carpenter's.
They were the Led Zeppelin of easy-listening.
Funny,but true enough.
I would never have thought to have The Carpenters and Led Zeppelin compared.
😂😂😂
I'll by that...
If you react to Only Yesterday you will hear the lower register of her voice which is amazing. Saw them in 1976 in college and she never missed a note. Perfection.
What can you say ? Daniel , You already said it. It is a Beautifully written song and Beautifully sung. Great song !
This is one of my favorite songs by The Carpenters 💕I adore watching the younger generation discover the Carpenters, they are so timeless ❣️
She didn't die of the anorexia..but her heart was so weakened by her constant bulimia caused her cardia arrest. Her brother was the loved one, the golden boy. That's why she had self-doubts.
The contributing factor of her death was from Ipecac use. The Ipecac when taken has a side effect, (Emitine poison) that destroys heart muscle. She went into cardiac arrest in her old room while spending the night at her mom's house.
The Carpenters = LIKE. Karen, you may have been down, but you lift us up every single time you sing. Thank you.
Awww, what a great reaction. Love it when people get the lyrics. And many of her songs.were very deeply her emotions. Well, we can see how personal they really were after her passing. Makes you kinda teary eyed that this beautiful, talented woman could ever feel that way. Wish she could have found that love she wanted and a family of her own. 💜💜. Love and miss you karen💜💜
I was in Elementary School when the music teacher introduced me to The Carpenters, so I pretty much grew up on them, I was a junior in High School when Karen passed, and I am not afraid to admit I cried when I heard she died.
There's a PBS program from years ago about the Carpenters. They still show it sometimes during their pledge drives or sometimes in the middle of the night. It's pretty interesting. You might want to check it out. Richard talks a lot about the music and how he arranged it. When I first started watching it, I thought he really sounded like a musical nerd. I was thinking it would just be them performing. As I watched it really gave me a deeper appreciation for both of their skills.
I just love this song(and the Carpenters). When I was as a kid, like 9 or 10, (about 6 years after this was initially released). I would play this song when I was feeling alone or lonely(long story) and for some reason it made me feel a little better as I felt like I not the only one in the world feeling like that. Plus Karen has such a soothing , unpretentious voice...just beautiful ❤️
Her voice is simply one of the best of all time haunting and beautiful
So sad. Karen's lyrics were always about yearning to be loved... but she never allowed herself to be loved. She passed away in 1983 at the age of 32 from complications of anorexia. One of the saddest stories in music history.
If you want one sadder, listen to Goodbye to Love. If you want a happy one, go with Sing. This song always gives me a lump in my throat.
No one like her they broke the mold when she was born people said to the voice of an Angel and she sure did and may have voice live on with all the memories of her and her voice and rest in peace Karen Carpenter you are missed sing with the angels
voice of an angel RIP karen
Her brother Richard produced and arranged all of their music, and he was brilliant. They did their own layered background vocals. Everything the did was perfection, and Karen did almost everything in one take. She was an AWESOME drummer, praised by very famous pro drummers. There are videos of her drumming on RUclips. She actually preferred drums to singing.
For Haloween you can't go wrong with Oingo Boingo. Either "Dead Man's Party" or "No One Lives Forever" or, preferably, both.
Man I grew up listening to them and I think back then that almost every man and young men fell in love with her and her voice.
Yes, anything Carpenters is quality either way you slice it. Her brother was no slouch as well. Read up on his bio if ya got the time, Peace
Yeah, her voice was said to have been as perfect as an instrument. I feel a lot of nostalgia when I listen to them. Nice reaction!
KAREN, you left us much to soon. But, your heartfelt beautiful music, will continue to bless everyone, with such joy forever. Remember listening to the carpenters, all the time. Know one will take your throne away. RIP - KAREN.
Rainy Days And Mondays is a metaphor. I'm just learning about your channel. You're a gift. Karen was such a great drummer too. She was such a gentle soul.
Isn't that a gorgeous voice
Happy birthday Richard Carpenter: October 15, 1946.
I love seeing young people listen to what I grew up listening to I Love The Carpenters that's enough that they still mean the same to young people today they did to me when I was that age the fact that they respect the music and and love it like I did at that age Karen Carpenter was one of a kind
Her voice makes me smile. I never read the story behind this song myself. Glad I tuned in.
perfect yes beautiful
She was 21 years old when she sang this. No one that age could actually say talking to myself and feeling old and make you believe it the way Karen does in this song. Of course, without knowing who would believe a voice that incredible and mature would come from a woman that young?
She was an amazing drummer. You can see a crazy drumming video of her on RUclips. Incredible talent!❤❤
