Good reaction and voice breakdown. Herb Alpert heard Karen's voice on a demo in 1969 and signed her brother, Richard, and her to A&M records. Karen received 3 or 4 Grammys in the 70s and sold over 80 million records by 1982. She was 1975 rock drummer of the year according to Playboy. Perhaps THE best female vocalist-ever, because she commands you to listen as she sings in perfect pitch TO you, not at you, with emotion and enunciation. No auto-tune or gimmicks. No professional voice or drum instruction. She was known by the studios as 'one take'. She rarely, if ever, recorded more than one take of any song. She was also the ONLY female harmony/background voice in all her songs. She was truly born with an incredible singing talent. Documentaries point out the accolades to her voice, such as, Paul McCartney said she had the most angelic voice after hearing her sing 'Ticket To Ride'. John Lennon ran into her at an LA restaurant and told her "you have a fabulous voice, luv". Supposedly Frank Sinatra stated that Karen was the only singer he'd pay to hear. I recommend songs such as, Yesterday Once More, Solitaire, This Masquerade, Need To Be In Love, Hurting Each Other, Only Yesterday, Close To You, I Can Dream Cant I (beautiful rendition to the 'big band sound'), Crescent Noon, Ordinary Fool, Rainy Days And Mondays, A Song For You, etc. KC never knew true love. One of her few friends included Dionne Warwick. 5'3" KC really lost weight, due to anorexia, in earnest beginning in 1975. She died in Feb 1983 at age 32 due to heart complications from anorexia

[@auralfixxation6702]

Her voice is one of the best, natural voices in music history. Just stunning.

[@michaelhwenig]

Karen Carpenter never had any formal vocal lessons. Truly a God given talent. Her brother was a masterful pianist, lyricist and composer. He specifically structured songs to fit Karen's angelic pitch perfect voice.

[@need100k]

That was my thought as well. She didn't need to go through some sort of voice lessons, but was born with this voice and the ability to control it to perfection.

[@HariSeldon.]

Listening to interviews with them, they were adamant that their name was “Carpenters”, not The Carpenters. I’m not sure why.

[@Carrinthe]

I'm a metalhead but I've always enjoyed the Carpenters. Karen has such an incredible voice and when I hear her I always get a little sad realising what an enormous talented and beautiful person we lost in 1983. Anorexia is such a terrible desease. Btw, you did an amazing Karen Carpenter impression, impressive!

[@whitepouch0904]

Anorexia was just a symptom of a more deeper serious problems. She had a cptsd caused by her narcissistic abusive mother. She was a scapegoat and her brother was the golden child. She longed for a mother’s love but never received a single “I love you” from her that she really needed.

[@ChuckHackney]

Hip hop, rap, metal head, hard rocker, whatever your genre, there is no way your ears can deny absolute greatness, the wonder of Karen Carpenter.

Oh, they would dare. And have. Check out Ksenia Buzina with Leonid and Friends. She does a masterful cover of this song. She doesn't have quite the depth and richness of Karen's lower register (no one ever will), but she is close. And the band that Leonid has put together is top tier pro level.

[@whitepouch0904]

I’d say Karen was more of a genius if she had studied piano I’m sure she could be at her brother’s level if not more but her mother wouldn’t let her shine where her brother shined because she’s the scapegoat child and he was the golden child. Not just she’s a perfect pitch singer she’s a great drummer too and played guitar as well. The record label initially just wanted her to be a soloist but their narcissist mother didn’t approve of it as she was just a minor at that time. She only approved if her son would be given a deal too. She was the caused why she developed anorexia. That’s the only thing she had a control in her life and she got carried away. Agnes thought her son was more or was loved by the people like Karen but no. When Karen died Richard career also died.

[@drieuxkoeppel8152]

I CANNOT listen to Karen without crying. SHE DID NOT NEED TO DIE…but her death at age 32, provoked a long-overdue public talk about Anorexia Nervosa…I hope she’s seeing how much she actually changed people’s perceptions of anorexia. Her recovery was punctuated by her death at 32. She died of the constant starvation damage to her heart. RIP Karen 1950-1927,4

Karen is as you describe. Once in a creation I say. There’s something so powerful and simultaneously so soothing about Karen Carpenter’s voice. What a gift.

Hear voice is the voice of an angel. I remember hearing this song as a child and it wowed me then as it moves me now😍🥰

Gosh, you're so good in what you're doing... and once again I'm sooo impressed by your singing voice!

[@ZoeyKnows]

If I close my eye's it's hard to tell the difference between you and Karen's voice. I believe you could easily cover this song as beautiful as you both sound.

Lolli, thank you. From the bottom of my heart. You've become one of my best musician friends. Sharing the joy we find in music. And schooling me on tidbits I was unaware of.

You created my favorite, all time music reaction video. It is Pentatonix cover of Hallelujah. Be well and happy, Duke

[@daphnesmith1897]

Agreed, a real standout reaction. I revisit that one when i need a pick me up ❤

[@Bumperump]

I adore your reactions and I'm totally in love with this one. Thank you!!! I still have this album on cassette (yes, I'm that old 😀) and will NEVER, EVER get rid of it.

Fantastic analysis Lolli, your videos are always a treat. Oh and I'm all for adding 'jubilatious' to the lexicon!

"Not breathe is generally bad advice.'' You make me so happy. Thanks for that.
