I only think of what Karen could have done.I miss her everyday. KAREN CARPENTER WAS the best female vocalist of all time. I was so lucky to see the Carpenters in concert twice.
The Carpenters have always been very highly regarded in Japan. Richard is a virtuoso pianist. He was genius at picking out songs that highlighted Karen's God-given voice, and crafting their arrangements in the studio. He also composed the music for many of their hit songs. He never seems to get any recognition from the music industry for his contributions. Carpenters sold over 100M records! I hope Richard is blessed with some grandchildren soon!
Richard Carpenter had piano lessons from the age of eight, and studied music at Yale Music School, California State University at Long Beach. Moreover, it is well-known that he composed the music of many of the Carpenters songs, and arranged all their material. So the idea that he can't read a note of music is clearly wrong. I do agree he is still a fine pianist, but has recently been in poor health, and has had to cancel a planned concert tour. may he make a full and rapid recovery.
So nice to see Richard, now an old man but he is ok. Karen are very proud of him. Here we are in december 2022. Carpenter is part of our life. Regards from Brazil.
As I listen to Richard play I also can hear a soft and beautiful voice that was Karen. I miss her songs with the videos that make me think of yesterday.
On the day she died I took it so hard. I had just suffered my first miscarriage. I love playing their greatest hits CD in my car when driving on long trips. We still miss you Karen!
I saw them in hershey pa. And so glad I did. They were both so young and vibrant, the beauty of the Carpenter's was their Sibling Love and respect for each other and their Talent. I miss you Karen, but know your in God's Loving Arms. And thank you Richard for keeping the Memory Alive.
She was taken away from us way too soon, I never knew Ms. Carpenter but I loved her voice, her music and Richard's Piano Accompaniment, I still have a Vinyl Album, no scratches. Thank you, Karen. RIP. May God Bless you. Thank you too, Richard, without you there would have been no "Carpenters".
I really missed karen. I never get the chance to see her live cause sadly i was born right after she left us. But her music took me into her life and her journey.
Good to see and hear Richard now. I did not fully appreciate what they did back in 1970's. Yes, there were many of us who were divided back then. So we're older now. Mellow now. And more grateful now...... Dean Seattle
Thank you for confessing your sin here! I always had to fight with people like you who tried hard to tell me that “it wasn’t cool to like the Carpenters”! I never listened to you, by the way; and I always thought that Karen was cooler than sliced bread. She was a gas for sure!
Beautiful playing. Richard does his sister proud. It's a shame she's not here to enjoy it. I bet she up in heaven jumping for joy at how much the carpenters are loved
Your songs lit up our lives in the 70’s and beyond. We sang them in Girl’s Choir too. That first song you play here made our high school reunion “Yesterday Once More”. It truly did!! We had a great time!! Also, I played your ICON CD, and relived those feelings again, and it made me so happy that I bought one for my close current friends and my brother’s friends. I have another favorite album of yours that I need to get out and play.
It's beautiful Richard does a good job playing the piano in loving memory of Karen his sister in heaven ladies like her have a beautiful singing voice she is missed I love both her and Richard God bless.💕🙏💕💖
Glad to see you Richard I seen You.And.Karen in concert. In June 10. 1973 In VA. Karen sung so beautiful She looked like she was A.beautiful person.I have all your record's I know you miss very much God.Bless you.VA 👑♥️🙏➕️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
O mundo e muito injusto as pessoas se vão cedo demais karem poderia estar ai ate hoje com aquela voz maravilhosa cantando e alegrando nossas vidas. Mais enfim Deus sabe o que faz. E levou ela para cantar para ele
Thank you Richard. I took a trip today but I took one in 2004 and during the trip I had this huge Karen feeling enter the room; the occupant of this interplanetary craft said "Karen was broken on arrival but she was in recovery on the other side." That's the message.
Beautiful Richard I can hear Karen and all the Angels singing in Heaven! ❤️ No one is to blame for our lives except ourselves..Thank You for Sharing your music again.. Children need to hear this..
He was born October 15, 1946. He is 78 years old now.
Where has time gone? It is but a flash before my eyes.
Maravilhoso. Que bom que vc está seguindo sua vida.Cante também!!!
😢😢 true 👍 😢
Wow...................................I remember we only just begun. He's 78........my gosh. I loved the Carpenters
Same here, Mario. What a gift they were to us. I truly believe that heaven will consist of all these wonderful things, restored and unending.
日本の民放でリチャードを呼べたのは正直びっくり。通勤の朝にこの映像が見られたら、一週間がんばれるよ。
I grew up listening to the Carpenters. Love every song they had. Karen was a once in a lifetime voice.
I can still hear her voice ❤
wish I could give 100 thumbs up
👏👏👏💖💖💖
😊😇🥰❤👍🙋🏻♀️
That piano sounds gorgeous. Richard Carpenter is a great musician and songwriter.
Absolutely beautiful. I hope Richard is doing well.
Richard's arrangements and Karen's voice were pure magic
In 1971 they were on top of the charts! Our senior song was “We’ve only just begun”. They bring back a lot of good memories. I loved all their songs!!
That’s a great one!! Ours was, “Friends, We Will Remember You”.
Me too. Miss Karen so much. I used to sing their songs via the karaoke.
Karen's voice is so unique and soothing
I only think of what Karen could have done.I miss her everyday. KAREN CARPENTER WAS the best female vocalist of all time. I was so lucky to see the Carpenters in concert twice.
If u only think of that, than what could she have done?
Que afortunada yo los viera querido ver me encantan sus canciones me transportan tengo 35 años y su música su voz de Karen realmente es fascinante

So do all of US.
Before Whitney, Mariah, Beyoncé, Madonna, Ariana, Rihanna...there was Karen.

He still can play very well and he can't read a note. I admire him. He's blessed.

Oh dear! Hate to hear his health hasn't been good. Yes, Richard took piano lessons for years.
I play by 'ear' also.

Thank you for clearing that up, Mr. Caesar.
When I was young, the first CD I bought with my own money was a Carpenters album. I will forever love all Carpenters songs
Me too! The first vinyl,the first cassette, the first CD I've bought was one of The Carpenters...
Richard has a beautiful touch on the keys.
Just beautiful…thank you Richard😘🥰🌹♥️
Love to you Richard and Karen!🌹♥️🌹

A treat to see Richard C playing. Bravo and peace to you.
As I listen to Richard play I also can hear a soft and beautiful voice that was Karen. I miss her songs with the videos that make me think of yesterday.
A masterpiece performed by its own composer.👏👏👏
He plays so beautifully ❤
Can only imagine how difficult it was to lose his angel of a sister 😢
Happy 76, Richie. 🎂🎂🎂 We love you! 🥰Thank you for the wonderful music you and KC gave us.
Wow! This is the first time I’ve seen Richard since the 70s!! Amazing!!❤❤
He is and always was so talented he plays with his heart and soul....

On the day she died I took it so hard. I had just suffered my first miscarriage. I love playing their greatest hits CD in my car when driving on long trips. We still miss you Karen!
Carpenters music will be love forever.
1974年に私が初めて日本に来たとき、カーペンターズはアーチ・ポピュラーで、私はすぐに彼らの音楽に恋をした。今日、私はリチャードのこの素晴らしいパフォーマンスを非常に懐かしく思いながら見聞きしている!
These two could have brought us beautiful music for decades more. 😢
I saw them in hershey pa. And so glad I did. They were both so young and vibrant, the beauty of the Carpenter's was their Sibling Love and respect for each other and their Talent. I miss you Karen, but know your in God's Loving Arms. And thank you Richard for keeping the Memory Alive.
Two of the great melodies of all time. Those shots of Karen are heart wrenching. She should have grown old.
Very pretty.. Richard the great ear and production master
Great music Richard! Absolutely beautiful!
Richard's playing is just as beautiful as ever!
The wonderful 70’s❤
Maravilloso Richard!
Lástima que no acompaño a su hermana como se merecía, el era consciente de todo lo que pasaba Karen y no fue inocente
Beautiful....
Those pics of Karen shown in there just make you want to cry! 😪
Thank you for sharing! 💖
In fact, I did 😢
Beautiful I love Richards piano playing

Such beautiful music. I can hear Karen's voice through the music. Miss her beautiful gifted voice

Yes! Richard is a great piano player. And he was a great arranger. And he presented the perfect voice, better than anyone could have ever done!!!

We got to listen to the radio in my 8th grade art class. The Carpenters were played all the time. It was 1972-73 and I can still hear Karen singing.
曲を弾くたびに 妹との思い出が浮かんで とても辛いでしょう。
カーペンターズは素敵です
