Hi all! I've created a post for anyone to post anything related to the 70's group The Carpenters. Feel free to post pictures, comments, or anything you like about my favorite music group!

My favorite song is Maybe It's You, the version not on Close To You, but on the Essential Collection Disc 1.

Too bad she had so many emotional problems, they were very talented. She was ghastly thin in the later years.
Rock critics like to bash this kind of music but you can walk into any record shop and find a whole row of their CDs including the old albums not just greatest hits packages. I like I Need to Be in Love, Top of the World, Only Yesterday, There's A lind of Hush, We've Only Just Begun, All You Get From Love is A Love Song, Touch Me When We're Dancing, Hurting Each Other and Sing the best. |

I loved The Carpenters. Karen had the voice of an angel. Superstar, Rainy Days and Mondays, We've Only Just Begun and Hurting Each Other are just a few of my favorite songs. They've covered some wonderful Christmas classics as well.
Critics can bash all they want, yet The Carpenters music is timeless and played continuously on soft rock stations over 20 years after Karen's tragic death. Their legacy endures. |
