The Carpenters Burt Bacharach Medley.wmv

[@TerryValhalla]

This is what "Perfect Pitch" means! Unmatched in some many ways.

[@markcoycoyescueta6922]

Karen’s voice is flawless...silky smooth alto yet her high notes and vibratos are amazing.. I love you Karen..

[@christopherscorner]

Seriously, is there any voice better than Karen Carpenter‘s? She and Richard were just so perfect for one another’s voices. I am truly stunned anytime I hear them sing together… Amazing!

[@rnr2jr]

None better. I will never get over the loss of the greatest Alto voice of all-time.

[@gobucsyanks6789]

Richard Carpenter has never received his due as one of the top music producers and arrangers of all time. This is proof of that. He is truly one of the best.

[@fool4singing]

He's right alongside with people like Brian Wilson and John Phillips...

[@internetdinosaur8810]

He was a controlling ass, though. Great producer for sure

[@BACKSIDEJOHNNY]

Internet Dinosaur He was the boss. Someone had to be. And Phil Spector was a prince.

[@steveowens9886]

Listen to Piano Picker !

[@kac327]

I just love hearing her talk, such a sweet voice even just talking

[@Shadowboro2]

I agree, her speaking voice is delicate, melodious and - dare I say it - quite sensual. It radiates warmth and love. It's a shame she didn't have a chance to find true love and start a family of her own, I think she would have been a great mother and a loving wife!

[@kac327]

Everything about her radiates warmth and love. She was so special

[@chitagongob5905]

KAC3 so do I ! Thanks for saying that!

[@douglasdexheimer1889]

love hearing her utter my favorite syllables in speech.

[@davidwhitlock9443]

Simply the best female pop singer of all time....

[@5877user]

Love hearing her sing other songs other than the most popular songs because she does an amazing version of everything she sings! RIP, Karen and Burt ❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bigd1345]

I completely agree. Leon Russell once said that Karen Carpenter sings his songs better than anyone. As she does their own songs, and whatever covers the Carpenters do. Amazing duo. Karen has always been my favorite female singer, no one compares.

[@bigd1345]

I often wonder if Richard tried to help Karen with her self esteem. She was beautiful, especially with a few extra pounds.

[@drogersnm]

Karen was the best. There will never be another like her. Not only was she a great singer, but a special person as well. Fame and fortune never went to her head -- she was always just Karen, the "girl next door". The kind of person that would stop and speak to the janitor of the building she was performing in. God loaned Karen to us for a little while, but then He got to missing her too much and called her back.

[@mstrunn]

This was incredible; I've heard the medley several times but not with this clarity, Karen's voice really came through, high register to low register, perfect pitch, awesome enunciation, she is the greatest female singer ever, especially live performances.

[@broccolihart1]

I think you're right. I know her pitch will be spot on whenever she sings.

[@tidawilson]

I'm from Indonesia. My Dad used to listen to The Carpenters and Burt Bacharach almost every time when I was a kid (I am now 27). He had this old cassette player that my grandfather gave him. He kept playing the tapes over and over again, any chance he could. Mostly on the weekends. I didn't understand it at first, why the hell would he keep listening to the same shit? But it grew on me. The music, the singing, the melodies, the arrangements. As I get older, I keep realizing the reason why my Dad loved them so much, and why they deserve so much love. It grew on me, to the point where it also influences me and shapes me as a person-who happens to play music. I am forever grateful to my Dad. All because of him.

[@No1KCfan6]

even her speaking voice is dreamy

[@Dastardly_X]

🌟

[@dugroz]

I believe that was the first time I heard her speaking! A little different that I would have guessed.

[@gabrielofficial7859]

😇

[@gabrielofficial7859]

😇

[@markprange4386]

Oh yeah. When she speaks her heartfelt thanks to the crowds it is erotic.

[@leriksen54]

All three of them: Burt, Richard, Karen and John Bettus wrote the great lyrics to many of their songs are exceptional gifted. I hope that they are stll making music in the next world.

[@juditkis5434]

Karen! Gyönyörű vagy,a hangod csodálatos! ❤❤

[@christifreeman8023]

Perfect voice, Karen Carpenter!💕

[@mightysaturn5133]

this is almost studio qualiy -amazingly clean...considering it's 74' only adds to the amazment

[@broccolihart1]

Right ! I was thinking " hold up, this is a live concert and she still sounds this good"?

[@neilkhoodabux49]

Karen carpenters voice is heavenly... the most beautiful voice. There will never be another!

[@leehayton]

Love the Carpenters, love Burt.....great arrangement, great voice.....the best.

[@victorjanusz7154]

Love this… the original Bacharach-David arrangement…

[@ConstantineCydonea]

RIP Burt Bacharach

[@hawkrider88]

I would love to have heard her sing, Alfie. What a voice!

[@helpthepoorpers]

None of today's wannabes can get close to Karens pure heart of gold her voice is the purest and genuine of the last century and for the next also I think she was like Mozart here for a short time and leave here leaving some gems that will never perish

[@mirai-eigou-shoshinsha]

Beautifully said! Karen really was a Mozart.

[@helnoftroy]

1st time listening to this version --- the earlier vids were 'muffled' ... this is very clear and sharp quality 👏👍 -- RIP Karen Carpenter & Burt Bacharach

[@gailesmusictherapy8525]

You are so correct, God only created 1 Karen... very very extraordinary voice. Unbelievable really. I’m still listening to the Carpenters, still missing Karen.. 2 days I will never forget ~ the day I found her and the day we lost her 💔

[@joemccann555]

always have time to listen to the carpenters

[@nealbraatz3911]

Great musicians + great composer + great arranger = Perfection!

[@coyallen8012]

Beautiful memories of a great singing duo. Karen is surely missed!

[@kiteflier]

Karen was with us for such a short time. But she left us her voice & her music.

[@arianav2660]

Karen!Heart,Gentleness,Sweetness,Clarity,Perfection...🌹

[@ChuckWroste]

I don't know about anyone else, but when Karen sings, it seems that she is singing only to me, in a personal, meaningful and gentle loving way. It's cliche, I know, but if any voice can make me want to walk on the beach holding hands or sit by the fireplace on a chilly autumn evening eating grapes, it is Karen. Love her forever!

[@davidsheriff9274]

I heard a music critic say that he thinks one of the reasons why so many people have such a visceral response to Karen's voice is that it sounds like a mother singing to her child, it's an interesting theory,who knows.

[@5877user]

Such an iconic voice so beautifully missed!! Gone too soon.❤❤ Wish there was a video of this medley.

[@miggyluv]

Karen's voice is still unmatched

[@jameybarclay3703]

This video is a keeper for sure . Great music and a great time to be alive

[@sfgiantpoet]

richard always used the best pickup and recording equipment and storage. and that is why we have ahead of its time clarity.

[@colinfox7813]

A beautiful woman and soul with the voice of an angel, so pure and perfect. The sad thing is that she didn't realise this herself - ultimately the world lost this beautiful woman and kindly soul and no one was able to help her. She left us a legacy of beautiful songs and wonderful recordings of her angelic voice but I wished someone could have saved her.

[@littlejpl]

Love the second song in this arrangement so much and the third song and the... Oh heck all of them are perfectly sung. Karen just sings to PERFECTION with Richard making the back ground even more perfect WOW love this hole medley of songs.

[@joseangelulloamejia6586]

loving this music forever

[@No1KCfan6]

she had a beautiful speaking voice as well.

[@KACfanMax]

I think KC is the best! With all due respect to Dusty, Dionne, Barbra, etc. Karen had the richest voice, most soothing voice of all. Most communicative too.

[@arianav2660]

Chuck!Well said. Karen;is an Angel. Her voice is a resounding of Her gentle soul. Love Forever.😍

[@immortelle3]

Karen, Burt and Richard were geniuses, everyone in his own field. RIP Burt Bacharach

[@jimmyb1499]

Great Upload/Post catman !... Ahhh Sweet Karen... One of the most beautiful voices God ever made ! Thanks for the video catman.

[@TexasJim1956]

This medley is amazing and this is the best version I've ever heard. I also love their performance of this same medley in the live from Australia video, even though the video and audio aren't that good, you get sense of what their live performance were like.

[@rosangelaferreira5576]

Sua voz é linda 😻 cantando e falando

[@tingokuman]

9th wonder brought me here. I actually cried when I found out this angel Karen was called home.

[@No1KCfan6]

also: deep, sweet, touching, otherworldly, magical, and indescribable.

I understand what you are saying, Jim. I also think that many guys would have wished that the person whose hand they were holding was Karen's.

Totalmente de acuerdo. Yo tenía unos 15 años cuando la oí por primera vez y quedé casi hipnotizado por la calidez, naturalidad y perfección. Por supuesto con la ayuda de su hermano Richard. Un equipo inigualable!.
