Karen is, hands down, the greatest female vocalist of all time.

Celine.

@@Pamsmith59 celine is great, although she can sound sometimes "screechy" in high notes... but NO ONE compares to karen in her one of a kind beautiful intimate warmth, richness, and purity of voice....also, karen had the most perfect diction and enunciation of any singer, male or female I've ever heard...

@@Pamsmith59 Nope. Celine is good but Karen is on a whole other level.

[@dagmar.6954]

Karen was one of a kind. There will never be another like her. She had such a pure calming voice. And she was a terrific drummer. That was her passion even more than singing. Sadly we lost her so young. Thankfully we have her legacy left in her music. The Carpenters had so many great songs such as "(They Long to Be) Close to You", "For All We Know", "Rainy Days & Mondays", "Superstar", "Goodbye To Love", "Top Of The World", "Sing", "Yesterday Once More", "I Won't Last A Day Without You", "Please Mr. Postman", "Only Yesterday", "There's A Kind Of Hush (All Over the World)", "I Need To Be In Love" & so many more.

[@debbieseymore481]

She was blessed with such a beautiful voice. R.I.P Karen Carpenter.

[@sallycripe2697]

Karen was the best female vocalist of all time. She had perfect pitch. Literally. And she was an amazing drummer. Most of their early stuff was with her behind her drum kit. That's where she was more comfortable. Everyone who has come after, and before for that matter, fall short. She was unique. Thanks for the reaction, Devin. They did not do a bad song, at least that I have heard. And I grew up in the 60's and 70's.

[@kathieovercash8414]

I love Olivia Newton John just as much. Both beautiful people and a voice no one could ever match and they couldn't be more different sounding. Love them both.

[@karenspindler1936]

An angel sent from heaven

[@pastorcindysc4606]

Loved this song! Many weddings featured this in the 70's.

[@lisawilliams9504]

Karen was in a class all by herself with that angelic voice. Richard had a beautiful voice as well. That's talent ❤, " For all we know " is a classic hit you just have to listen to.

[@thebyrd433]

This is such a beautiful song about marriage and it is timeless. Karen Carpenter brought so much beauty into our lives with her music, but that wasn't all. Her life brought us beauty, but for some her passing brought salvation. Until Karen Carpenter died, eating disorders were not acknowledged as a problem, and many people didn't even know they existed. It took the tragic death of a young celebrity to finally open people's eyes to the dangers of anorexia. What a shame things had to go so far before we became aware, but God does have a plan, and sometimes Our Father must give us the harsh news in the only way we will truly understand.

[@jamessceeles4397]

Karen had such a beautiful distinctive voice easily recognizable and a voice I've never tired of listening to.🙏🏻🇺🇸✝️

[@garyjohnson3081]

The greatest female vocalists of all time! A perfect voice!

[@lancelary9124]

A voice like no other. One of a kind.

[@williamfaust5769]

Devin, I very much appreciate your Christian perspective. I have studied that Bible for 50 years and you have a very good grasp of the simple truths contained therein. Keep sharing that knowledge and never give up! We have to keep on keeping on and looking for the return of our Savior.

[@lionheartroar3104]

This song was originally a bank commercial. Richard Carpenter found the author of the song and made it a full song...and it was major hit!

[@DianaJG8]

This played at my wedding back in '73. My aunt worked and worked until she was able to play it perfectly on the piano in the 100+ year old country church we were in. Of course, I was so nervous coming down the isle I didn't hear the song 🤷‍♀️

[@joemacinnis1972]

Simply the best female singer I've ever heard

[@chihuahua1187]

God bless you! Keep witnessing your love for Jesus Christ! You touched my heart today

Karen had the loveliest voice. Smooth like butter. My mom loved her dearly hence I was named after her.

[@1228Deb]

This was my wedding Song back in 94 brings back great memories 🙏

[@LadyGator1983]

This is just one of the songs that I grew up listening to. Back in the day, this was a very popular wedding song! GREAT HARMONY RIP Karen Carpenter

[@rons3634]

That, sir, is what an angel sounds like.

[@angelam5444]

Love your passion for the Lord! For your next Carpenters reaction, try Only Yesterday. I think you'll love it.

Her voice is like a warm glow of sunshine wrapping your heart

[@maureenmccarthy4204]

My favorite female singer ever the great Karen carpenter I was 19 when she sadly died

[@dennisloveland498]

Top of the World has always been one of my favorite Carpenters tunes. It's got a lot more country flavor than other songs. In fact, when the Carpenters performed it at the White House during the Nixon administration, Karen couldn't resist letting out a couple of "yee-haws"!! Lol. I also really like Hurting Each Other, their version of Ticket To Ride, Rainy Days and Mondays, It's Going to Take Some Time, Only Yesterday, Yesterday Once More....just to name a few!!!

[@xhetoomni8134]

This was the wedding song of the '70's . If you did not play this song after the wedding vowels then you committed a wedding war crime, It was like singing the Star Spangled banner before the game but only after.

[@jerickson725]

👍💗 I'm looking forward to more Carpenters reactions. Thanks!

[@joechandler8398]

This was our song in our wedding over 50 years ago. 1971. Thanks to God and his love in our lives this is still our song. You may see us on a highway our travel trailer has a musical script “we’ve only just begun” on its back panel. God bless you may you continue in God’s grace and in your just beginning walk with Christ.

[@dameinnoble3995]

Amen Brother! Peace from New Zealand. RIP Sister Karen

[@barbarawayland2424]

The 70's had such great music and the Carpenter's were such talented entertainers. Please listen to Superstar......amazing! She was also a great drummer.

[@wendypowell6357]

I love that you love the oldies. I am 55 years old and I believe that we had the best music.

[@sno_dash9817]

This was my wedding song! Love it

[@obliv3on]

I rock with you Gibby, God Bless.

[@sergeiparajanov]

Karen's voice was a unique gift. And she didn't want to be a singer! She liked being in the back, hiding behind her drum set. But her brother encouraged her to sing lead, and thank goodness he did. The Carpenters were out of step with most of 1970s pop, and that's one reason their songs haven't dated a bit.

[@fosterapp]

So true brother. I grew up with her and I look forward to hearing Karen singing in heaven. God bless you !

[@kevinsmith7-7-7]

😇😇 Just So Angelic... RIP 🙏🏽Queen 👑 Her and her brother ❤❤

[@carols6013]

This song began as a commercial for a bank. There was so much interest in the song that the Carpenter’s took the song to a recording. The rest is history.

[@glennlesliedance]

This song was first used for a bank commercial. Richard heard it, sought out the composer Paul Williams, and asked if there was more. Richard did his magical arranging and we got this classic.

[@michelleydenisey4697]

Amen brother!

[@bruce1002003]

Someone, I don't remember who, once said that you knew it was Karen by the 2nd or 3rd note. One of the greatest vocalists of all time.

[@andreadeamon6419]

Amen brother. Need to learn from our mistakes

[@artsci2716]

Carpenters are still awesome!

[@DLCSTexas]

This had to be a music video because there were no mics. Also, the carpenters were Richard and Karen.probably because other instruments were used in the making these others were added to or some may know another reason the were here. Before the carpenters there was a country duet couple, husband and wife where the artist sang sound with sound live with their background voices recorded into the guitar amp brought in when the guitar player wanted them to. But, Richard and Karen made it popular and made it work as a production ….they sang with their own background voices layered and layered and they too were playing instruments live, her drum and him piano. This was a marvel on tv at the time. The carpenters were first to do a lot of things. They were soft rock and had been for a while. They were the first to do a soft rock ballad with a hard rock guitar solo. They got way a lot of criticism for it but look what that act of bravery has done for rock for years to come. I miss them. Thanx for the react Devin.

[@michaelasay8587]

Now maybe you'll do more of her...100+ songs. I gave flowers to her at her concert when I was 12. A big part of my heart died when she did.

[@JUSTMAR1E]

Amen brother

Thanks for the reaction and thanks for bringing JESUS to the forefront. Don't forget none of us are perfect, but GOD still loves and wants all of his children with him. Take care .

I love reaction videos but I just saw you react to Keith Green and you gave some scripture, I thank God that I found your page, you make me laugh and you are a blessing.

Touch Me When We’re Dancing and merry Christmas Darling are a couple of other good Carpenters songs if you get a chance. Thanks!

[@xDRAGONSTARx]

Karen and Richard complimented each other so well. Richard was and still is so very musically talented. Karen, well she had a once in a generation voice. Untrained and pure. How lucky were we that she shared that gift of hers with us all.

[@stingosdungeon]

Praise Jesus bro!!

[@TheDivayenta]

Everyone got married to this song in the 70’s.

[@annforkin8368]

She’s also a great drummer! She considered herself as a drummer who could sing!

[@daveloboda1769]

Karen Carpenter was a unique talent, a voice of pure gold.

🙂 Enjoyed your reaction! Karen was also an accomplished drummer. I'm not 100% certain, but I believe Karen played drums on some of their studio songs. Pretty cool.

[@AugieDoggyDoo]

As I said in the last reaction. She is/was just ridiculous. What a tragedy. So many years, so many songs. I am so thankful for them.
