Absolutely adorable voice noone like it even now.The pressure to be slim and perfect led her into anorexia very difficult illness to beat especially when she was kinda in denial. Sad ending.

At the 21 minute mark she looks like so emaciated.

Her voice was just angelic. She deserved better than what she got. RIP

Her loss was tragic and could have been avoided with the right help and support.

Poor Karen...

Beautiful unique voice. I didn't know she was having all those problems with her parents especially her mom.

My favorite Carpenter song is "All you get from love is a love song". The sax solo is equally sublime!

Greetings from East Tennessee! She was a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice. Never knew she had no affection or love from her mother 😢 how sad and strange...

Любимата и единствена! The beloved and the only one Karen Carpenter!

Karen was and is a gift to us all. ❤

There is no voice so rich as Karen Carpenter to this day. Sadly after all her success and getting rich with her hard work still wasn't a happy feeling due to her family especially her mother and off and on her brother and of course her anorexia that took it so deep. God grant her eternal peace. I never miss hearing her music and hit songs ever so often to this day.

Karen had a voice like velvet. Ironically, I think her family held up her brother as the "Golden Child" and they down-played Karen's talents in order for her brother to shine instead. Such early family patterns of devaluing was something Karen seemed to internalize as was shown with her eating disorder. I do not believe she fully understood how great she was. What a loss.

Not just the sweetest. She was pitch perfect.

I Always Loved Karen Carpenter and I had a Crush on Her when I was Young. Every time I hear the song Merry Christmas Darling!! I think of being able to say that to her!! She was such a Special Person besides being an Incredible Singer. I Hope Her Heartless Mother and her Slimy EX husband Gets the Rewards That Are Due Them In The Afterlife!! What a Cruel Heartless woman who only gave a Damn about Herself and what she Wanted. Even when she found out her daughter was that Ill she Couldn't And Wouldn't Spit out the words even if she was Lying just to Help Karen!!

Their music kept me sane during my two tours in Vietnam

She did NOT pass away under “mysterious circumstances.” Her anorexia caused her to take laxatives and exercise incessantly. This depleted potassium from her system; which is critical for heart function; therefore, her heart failed.

One love..all her songs are beautiful ❤️

My mother when I was Young why is a big Carpenter's fan back in the 70s.

RICHARD THE OLDER SIBLING ISN'T WORTH TO BE CALLED AS ONE. KAREN'S VOICE IS UNIQUE. SHE AND SHE ALONE OWNED IT. SHE WAS ONE OF THE RAREST KIND. I CAN'T IMAGINE WHY HER PARENTS CAN'T BE LOVING AND CARING FOR THEIR ONLY PRINCESS, A RARELY GIFTED ONE. GOD DESIGNED PARETS TO BE AS SUCH. I'M NOT A RELATIVE BUT IT BREAKS MY HEART INTO COUNTLESS PIECES TO HER STORY. MAY GOD BLESS HER SOUL.

They were a fantastic band and my favourite song of there's is Top of the world I am from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺

I TRULY LOVE ALL KAREN CARPENTER'S MUSIC ALBUMS. NOBODY CAN DUPLICATE HER VOICE. IT'S TOO UNIQUE THAT SHE AND SHE ALONE CAN OWN IT AND NOBODY ELSE!!!

WHAT THE FUCK are you BABBLING about, "AN NOT understood at the TIME!!!" If SOMEONE GAVE A SHYTE, SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN HOSPITALIZED!!!

For all we know is my favorite song

i love all hr songs

It's very sad indeed, a talented singer lost control over her mind and body to lose weight to be beautiful

Karen was the star, Richard was really only the bag carrier, as with Cher and Tina Turner the chauvinist males were nobody without the girls.

She was a joy to listen. I remember well

Her voice was so beautiful, every song is good 🤍💫

She Was my All Time Favorite Singer... Still !

Why do we need someone to blame?

Great content, awful AI voiceover

😢

The very finest female voice followed by Judith Durham

Karen had such a beautiful voice. She deserved so much better. Agnes was a real piece of work. I can't imagine never telling your kids you love them. My parents didn't say it a lot but we knew they did by how we were raised.

At 30 years of age she should have accepted & found love elsewhere. The therapist screwed up.

Karen was everything to female voices. That Freddy Mercury was to males.

What an incredible voice and talent. Ahe was fone way too soon.

This is the first I heard of this news. I use to listen to their albums at night with my headset on while falling asleep in my college dorm room. Such a pity that people made her feel like this. She brought so much joy to the world.

I still remember the vision of her thin body being wheeled out.

One of the Greatest Voices in History and one of the worst computer voices in this video.

I always liked hearing those songs back in the early 70s.

You need a better bot. Awful.

parents make or - BREAK us

Karen was lovely i think her brother did not deserve her

I hope her mom rots in hell she did not help Karen when she needed her MOST KAREN WAS THE FIRST CELEBRITY WHO I CRIED FOR. I still well up when I watch her video. Karen had the voice of an ANGEL RIP.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I guess it was a lesson learned by everyone involved in Karen's downfall including her self. I always thought of her voice as beautiful,soothing and definitely a one of kind sound! She will return again to finish what she set out to be if she hasn't already returned... who out there could be a reincarnation of the late great Karen Carpenter🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶

No evan comes close,karen is all time favorite female singer. SHE WAS MY EQIVALENT TO NAT KING COLE. THEY ARE BOTH MY ALL TIME FAVORITES!!@!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

She suffered from anorexia

Karen has the purest sound, with a taste of honey.

My dad and mother's best friends lived around the corner from the Carpenter's in Downey, CA. We were all saddened what happened to Karen and not because of her music or one of a kind angelic voice, but the loss of a beautiful person from the heart! I still mourn!
