      The only years she looked healthy was from 69-72. But yes, obviously suffering from her eating disorder here. She’s 28 here but looks like she could be pushing 60. Tragic

    A #1 hit for The Carpenters in January 1975. It was their last #1 hit on the Top 40 charts. It also hit #1 on the Adult Contemporary charts and the Cash Box charts. It also hit #1 in Canada and their AC charts, Japan, and South Africa. It hit #2 in Ireland & the United Kingdom, #4 in New Zealand, #5 in Switzerland, #10 in West Germany, and #29 in The Netherlands. Karen, you gave us so much, and there is no doubt that you had so much more to give. It was a sad day when you left us. You will never be forgotten.

    Whenever I hear Karen I think about the horrible loss of such a talent and that is just my
    selfishness. Everyone says good things about her so it is just awful she had to suffer so much. I think about a lot of the basically crap the industry foists on us and realize
    how much we lost in a talent like Karen. Love you Karen and your wonderful music we
    still have.
