Her voice is legendary, her skills as a drummer are criminally underrated, and she was, without exception, the Greatest Singing-drummer in rock history, bar none; Levon Helm, fine talent, Don Henley, great singer, lame drummer could NEVER do triplets on a snare like she could, and her off-meter and syncopation was amazing.
I put her and Phil Collins as the greatest singing drummers, Karen had a better voice than Phils but Phil had better chops in his prime playing the tricky prog rock arrangements, tbh I cannot separate the two for pure god given talent, Phil also plays piano.
Both were great singer-drummers, but Karen was a better drummer than Phil was as a singer. And Phil’s drumming was not exceptional, unlike Karen’s singing.
Horace Lin I agree. Even if Phil was a better drummer we’re talking about arguably the greatest female vocalist of all time (definitely top 5) so that tips the scale unless you weigh the two skill set 90-10 drumming to singing or something like that.
I agree that Karen was one of the greatest singers that ever lived!!! I remember when I was a small boy and hearing her sing in the car on the radio, some cars back then had only one speaker and the sound was not very good, and Karen's voice was just WOW!!!! No one else was so expressive and dynamic and felt every note that she sang. Even all these years later, I still say WOW when I hear her voice and I stop what I am doing and just listen to "That Incredible voice with the most perfect diction and phrasing. Karen made you always feel as if she was only singing back to one person. YOU!!! No one could ever equal or surpass Karen!! Dearly Loved and Missed!!!! I am so grateful for the incredible music Karen left behind, but it makes me also wonder had she lived, just think all the more incredible music Karen and Richard would have made. No One in the world had a voice like KAREN!!!!
CARPENTERS> ANOINTED & ORDAINED by God to impact USA during Dark Turmoil of division > They Shot Up like a METEOR by God's Hand (15 Mega Hits & 20+M Sales in just 1st 4 yrs.) a 'Consecutive Hits' Record still today 2021 > now 150+M Sales incl. '1M' Solo album by Karen (1980) released '1996'.
I was a kid when they started out.Yes one speaker car radio and she still poured out of it with that strong voice.Everything in your comment is sooo true.We are so lucky to of had her here with us.Thank You Karen for making every word touch us.My favorite singer by far!
Has anyone ever come close to Karen Carpenter? The simple answer is no. Not Streisand not Dion not Ross not Warwick or Clarke or Newton John or Parton. These ladies don't even come close. Just as Ms Warwick said Karen's voice was like a smoking burning log utterly incredible. You feel her voice speaks to you personally....
It was extremely shoking 4 me listening Karen's Theme by Richard Carpenter & inmediatly lyrics 4 Karen came to me. I hope u like it -love, from ARgentina TH-cam: th-cam.com/video/aq8b3KGJbIA/w-d-xo.html FACEBOOK: facebook.com/BozziniMaria/videos/10154458104316616
I am 13 but I really love Karen's songs.I love all her songs and she is the best singers that I heard.I dont care about the music in the present,I will remain in the past heheeh
so true what K.D. said...no vocal acrobatics needed here with Karen. No "the Voice" monstrous vocal gestures and no etheral arpeggios needed...she did what she did and it was mind-blowing...and still is now.
No explaining a gift from God. She was simply unmatched, she had this very interesting sound best described as angelic. She could very well be the best Singer ever born.
Most beautiful voice ever! I was shopping in a mall once, heard her voice coming from within a shop's radio and immediately fell in love with that voice. I asked them to tell me who the singer was and went on to purchase my first, of many, CDs from "The Carpenters!!!" Her voice will never die!!!
We are very lucky that we live in a time when her voice was able to be immortalized forever. We will never know what the master composers and musicians sounded like from the time of Mozart or Beethoven or others of the masters. We however have the technology to remember her sound forever, and it will be remembered. A Star on Earth, A Star in Heaven. The Righteous Brothers had a song that always gives me shivers called Rock and Roll Heaven. When you hear this song and stop to think about the band the musicians lost to us could put together, then you really get shivers. She left us a legacy of beautiful music, and her voice will always sooth.
Today is 37th anniversary of Karen Carpenter's passing and I can't believe she's really gone for that long but I think she was so talented enough to be a singer and drummer too and I was in school when she died in the 1980's when I was a kid
countless tributes NOT included in this video: frank sinatra said she was the only woman he would pay to hear sing. engelbert humperdinck and shania twain both have said she is their favorite female singer. john lennon came up to her and told her "i just wanted to tell you you have a fabulous voice, luv".paul mccartney and justin haywood of the moody blues both considered her the greatest female singer in the world when she was alive, streisand told her "you have a marvelous instrument".. and so on and so on...
When Richard went into rehab.Karen did solo album.they didn't release it.she had the most beautiful voice in the world.she was so loved.why wasn't that album release.it was so hard to say goodbye to Karen.she left us to young.R,I,P,
There's so much stigma on how a person shud look these days but Karen carpenter back then had it all a voice n the beautiful looks n had the gift of playing the drums all in all what a class act to beat r.i.p Karen xx
and she was so beautiful. Sure they looked so squeaky clean and goody goody but she was a beautiful woman. Why didn't anyone make her believe it herself?
I remember waiting for a new Carpenters release, as if it were Christmas morning! What an amazing gift to hear her take on a song - for the very first time! I'll always miss that excitement... You simply get lost in the perfection...
Pete said 4 and a half years and never heard Karen hit a sour note.Wow! How many singers get that said about them? Great to see Pete.I love when he sang "Shaboom" on stage live with Karen on the dvd "Talk of the Town".Rest easy Pete and Karen!
Karen Carpenter,simply the best,greatest female singer in my Lifetime. I will be 60 next month. I really have missed her so very,very much. Best slow dance songs in my high school days ever.
The greatest female voice of the 20th Century, and so far the 21st too! It's sad too, because all of the love, happiness, relationships, and marriage she sang about, she never had in her own life. 😢
You know how you remember certain moments in your life, like when Kennedy was shot or when Princess Di was killed? You can recall exactly where you were and what you were doing. I remember the news about Karen's passing like that. THE voice will live on forever.
I was sitting in the backseat with my boyfriend and his sister on our way to a softball game...when the radio came on and announced it, I started bawling...I would never be the same after that day...RIP beautiful lady.
I was too young to remember because she died when I was two, but I remember when my mom told me that she was dead, when I was about 7 or 8. I didn't react much, but now I can't listen to the carpenters without crying, at age 39 (almost 40).
Well, I get it. But for me Elvis & the Carpenters are tied for the top spot. In fact, thanks to “Jobama” and this giant shit show on steroids that we are living in, they are keeping me out of the rubber room!
Nobody hated Karen's voice. Even if you don't like the Carpenters musically (how dare you?), everyone from Sinatra to KD Lang (I think KD Lang quotes Karen as an inspiration) appreciated how good her voice was.
Yes karen carpenter was unique as a singer and drummer her voice was true effortless more or less flawless. And she was a very humble human being who was not alter ego selfish just a very genuine person she had no edge. Didn,t think been better than anyone else and certainly not a diva just a normal human being who loved what she did best sing. And delight her fans the world over.
The Carpenters' music is wonderful and I've loved it since I was a kid - my mom listened to it and I grew up with the songs of the 70's...to me it's the best time for music!
The angels in heaven got together for a meeting. They wanted to bless the people of earth with the sound of their beautiful singing. They were given the authority to select a good person to sing through. They decided to choose the nicest girl on the planet. Thus began the magical life of Karen Carpenter.
what a great video its nice to hear people talk nicely about karen for a change and people remembering her for her as a person and her music and not remembering her for how she died so kudos for this video its going in my favs
This was a nice video & it is so refreshing to hear people talk about Karen...the person, the singer......& NOT...Karen Carpenter..."the anorexic". John Bettis was a band member & co-wrote many of the Carpenter songs with Richard. I just heard him on youtube in an interview he gave on Sept. 15th 2014. He said..."the kid who went through all that (probs. she had) was "a PRETTY, LIVELY, ENERGETIC, & FUNNY person" There's also a video of a radio tribute on her 50th birthday where the host played clips of radio interviews he had with Karen in 1976. It was great because Karen was just very laid-back & sounded like she was just chatting with an old friend. It wasn't one of those polite interrogation interviews. She laughed & joked around & talked about how she liked to needle-point, decorate, & cook. He asked her about her singing, if she'd had lessons,etc. Karen said "No, I just open my mouth & it comes out." He asked her what requirements she had for a husband...Karen said..."well I do have a list, but I'd have to stand up because it will probably drop to the floor." n In a different interview, someone asked her how she got ready for a concert. Karen said..." Oh, I just get dressed & walk out on sage..." It was nice to actually just hear her voice & hear her laughter. So, yeah, this was a good video. It shows here that you wrote this a month ago...I guess I've written so much because I've gotten so tired of hearing about her tragic life/death & the day she died...Feb. 4th 1983. Well, today is March 2nd & it's Karen's birthday. She would have been 65 years old. I have no doubt that this "lively, energetic, funny person would want people to be talking about Feb. 2nd 1983 & all the sad things. I think she'd rather be remembered as you say...who she was as a person. And as an end note...tell people to celebrate her as a person by going out & buying a " SNICKERS" candy bar & eat it. Snickers was her favorite & she even had a t-shirt with it written across the front. That's the Karen Carpenter I'm going to remember today!!!
Karen Carpenter's voice was like finding a box of chocolates with an infinite amount of chocolates and the first one you eat was the exact perfect one you love.
CrescentNoon, thank you so much for this wonderful compilation. How lovely to hear friends and peers pay tribute to this remarkably grounded yet phenomenally gifted performer. Karen is unique and unforgettable.
Very touching commentaries about Karen ,especially at the end you can see tears well up in Dorothy Hamill's eyes, and when I saw that tears welled up in my eyes also. Miss ya Karen. Thanks for sharing this video.
Karen had Gods spirit in her..but with all the distractions she had around her..she was unable to tap into it to save her life..u are loved karen by so many u didnt even know..may God have mercy on your soul.
How I wish you could still be with us today how I wish he understood in you how beautiful her voice was and is what kind of a talent she has I wish she would have known how she was loved by everyone until this day she gets more and more people that find her music love her music and love her God bless stay safe rest in peace Karen
when i met them after a concert i told karen i was a drummer and also a songwriter and then explained in drummer language what i thought was so good about her solo on drums....i remember , after the hug and a kiss on the cheek with a thank you 3 times .......her eyes were this lovely brown , and as i told her how i really was impressed how she worked the snare drum with the side tom-yom doing triplets and accent paradiddles {sorry drumer talk} she listened and that smile came out like a rose blooming and then she was called to go across the room for an interview,,,,she grasp my arm and said ?dont go anywhere ,,,ok?" so,,,,,i stood there , and richard came over and said "boy, you really made her night {refering to the drum talk] we [richard and i spoke 4 awhile and i complimented him on the arrangement of we only just begun,,,,,,i glanced over to where karen was being interviewd and she looked back....eyes met and she smiled , and noded like ...ok still there...lol.......anyway.....the womman was so very girl next door in person.....no attitude, or self-importance ....just a "drummer who likes to sing" there was more that night with karen ....and richard,,,,but the only other star i met{and being in the music business i have met alot} that showed such unassuming persona was tom jones and elvis presley. polite , a bit shy , and looked you right in the eye......karen carpenter was one such beautiful person "dont you remember you told me you loved me baby" i miss you , sassy.
singing perfectly while playing the drums. not an easy task for anyone, except Karen. what a talent.
And Phil Collins
Don't forget Roger Taylor
Her voice is legendary, her skills as a drummer are criminally underrated, and she was, without exception, the Greatest Singing-drummer in rock history, bar none; Levon Helm, fine talent, Don Henley, great singer, lame drummer could NEVER do triplets on a snare like she could, and her off-meter and syncopation was amazing.

Why do I cry? Her voice, her voice.

You have good taste. Back then Rock was coming alive and listening to the carpenters was not cool. We didn't care. What a beautiful voice. Perfect
That just means you have great taste in music. Nothing wrong with that.
Me too!

antij1 - and that inability to see your genuine worth is just one of the root issues that cause eating disorders
& what did her best friend Olivia (Newton-John) say? .....crickets 🙊
What a wonderful tribute. She was one of a kind.
Thank God I lived in the age of Karen Carpenter. RIP lovely angel.
Her vocals were amazing she wasn't a singer who could play the drums , she was a drummer who could sing .....

Watch Agnetha from Abba singing The End Of The World. It did bring tears to my eyes.
Karen's songs have touched my heart. I will miss her along with the world.R.I.P Karen.
She sang like an angel. Her voice was very deep and touched many souks. God bless you Karen.
Nobody can ever sing like her she has a very beautiful voice

even without accompaniment karens voice is already perfect
Karen sang with feeling and really expressed the song..one of the greatest..
One of a kind! Tragic loss, so young! Wish she had true happiness!
and she was so beautiful. Sure they looked so squeaky clean and goody goody but she was a beautiful woman. Why didn't anyone make her believe it herself?
Karens voice gives me goosebumps.
RIP Beautiful singing angel ❣️

It still brings tears to my eyes..to think of her gone..she will be missed till the end of time.
Damn right !!!
Some great artists praising one very talented lady!!!
Karen Carpenter,simply the best,greatest female singer in my Lifetime. I will be 60 next month. I really have missed her so very,very much. Best slow dance songs in my high school days ever.
Seeing her play back then was one of the reasons I became a singing drummer...RIP Karen!
Karen is still theworlds best singer miss her dearly I got t meet her in thespring of 1980
she was so sad...i think, petula clarke understood her best...
The greatest female voice of the 20th Century, and so far the 21st too! It's sad too, because all of the love, happiness, relationships, and marriage she sang about, she never had in her own life. 😢
She was an ANGEL sent straight from heaven...
We love you and miss you Karen

I agree...I remember being home from college and being at the dentist when I found out she passed. I was devastated as she was one of my favorites
My late dad's favourite singer xx
She was the one and only. Just loved her voice. More than Elvis ! Not many can say that !
I love both.
Well, I get it. But for me Elvis & the Carpenters are tied for the top spot. In fact, thanks to “Jobama” and this giant shit show on steroids that we are living in, they are keeping me out of the rubber room!
Nobody hated Karen's voice. Even if you don't like the Carpenters musically (how dare you?), everyone from Sinatra to KD Lang (I think KD Lang quotes Karen as an inspiration) appreciated how good her voice was.
The voice of an Angel who walked among us. So pure, So Beautiful. Simply the best.
She will go on forever........
She was like a Disney princess who could play the drums and sing.
Yes karen carpenter was unique as a singer and drummer her voice was true effortless more or less flawless.

Genuine music by a woman with angelic voice, Timeless songs of yesteryears. It's hard to come by these days.
...her voice was an instrument all by itself!...💐
This girl was talented and very beautiful and a sweet beautiful voice.. it was so sad to have lost her.
Karen Carpenter was marvelous ❗️Have many cd’s of hers.❤️🌺
A Karen Carpenters tinha uma voz mágica
Incomparável!
God sent an angel to earth. Her name was Karen Carpenter
My favorite female singer and my favorite drummer. Period. Once they took her away from her drums, that was the end of her. So sad.
she had a rich, creamy voice. she made everything she did sound so effortless. what a loss...
And here I am 12 years later and totally agreeing with you ...do you still listen to her?
@@edmundpower1250 Especially when I feel like singing.
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down? SMH.
I consider her one of the top vocalist ever.
Karen Carpenter's voice was like finding a box of chocolates with an infinite amount of chocolates and the first one you eat was the exact perfect one you love.
Karen’s voice was pure velvet ❤️❤️❤️
I love Carpenters...2019
I’ve been trying to sing like her since I was 10 yrs old😊I failed lol,no one can ever beat her🌟perfection❤️
I agree she had the voice of an angel beautiful inside about RIP karen I miss u 😢
Many words spoken in this tribute but none could put into words the beauty of Karen's singing.
Even though I didn't like some of their music, she without a doubt has the most beautiful voice. Taken from us way to early :(
“I don't know what's worse: to not know
what you are and be happy, or to become what you've always wanted to be,
and feel alone.
Thank you, Karen Carpenter. We will hear you always.
Probably the purest voice to ever sing in Pop music.
CrescentNoon, thank you so much for this wonderful compilation. How lovely to hear friends and peers pay tribute to this remarkably grounded yet phenomenally gifted performer. Karen is unique and unforgettable.
kd lang's comments are so right on. And what a compliment to come from someone with a perfect pitch!
No one is like Karen! A beautiful soul!
I want the Carpenters inducted into the Hall of Fame....Herb Alpert help!!!!
Simply the best female singer I've ever heard!

when i met them after a concert i told karen i was a drummer and also a songwriter and then explained in drummer language what i thought was so good about her solo on drums....i remember , after the hug and a kiss on the cheek with a thank you 3 times .......her eyes were this lovely brown , and as i told her how i really was impressed how she worked the snare drum with the side tom-yom doing triplets and accent paradiddles {sorry drumer talk} she listened and that smile came out like a rose blooming and then she was called to go across the room for an interview,,,,she grasp my arm and said ?dont go anywhere ,,,ok?" so,,,,,i stood there , and richard came over and said "boy, you really made her night {refering to the drum talk] we [richard and i spoke 4 awhile and i complimented him on the arrangement of we only just begun,,,,,,i glanced over to where karen was being interviewd and she looked back....eyes met and she smiled , and noded like ...ok still there...lol.......anyway.....the womman was so very girl next door in person.....no attitude, or self-importance ....just a "drummer who likes to sing" there was more that night with karen ....and richard,,,,but the only other star i met{and being in the music business i have met alot} that showed such unassuming persona was tom jones and elvis presley. polite , a bit shy , and looked you right in the eye......karen carpenter was one such beautiful person "dont you remember you told me you loved me baby" i miss you , sassy.
