that voice!! NO ONE and i mean no one could tell the story of the song better then her, whether a upbeat fun song like this or a moving love song or a sad melancholy song.. and she's also such a "ENTERTAINER!".. as demonstrated her! always in our hearts souls and minds karen!..
I think the marvelettes and beatles convery much more powerfully the sorrow and frustration of the story.. this is good nonetheless but feels much more casual
The only years she looked healthy was from 69-72. But yes, obviously suffering from her eating disorder here. She’s 28 here but looks like she could be pushing 60. Tragic
Without a doubt the GREATEST FEMALE SINGER OF ALL TIME...Just listen to that stunning voice...And to find out that she had no singing lessons at all is truly amazing...And to this day the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME has still NOT inducted the CARPENTER...Shame on you RRHOF...R.I.P."KAREN CARPENTER"🙏❤️😭
A #1 hit for The Carpenters in January 1975. It was their last #1 hit on the Top 40 charts. It also hit #1 on the Adult Contemporary charts and the Cash Box charts. It also hit #1 in Canada and their AC charts, Japan, and South Africa. It hit #2 in Ireland & the United Kingdom, #4 in New Zealand, #5 in Switzerland, #10 in West Germany, and #29 in The Netherlands. Karen, you gave us so much, and there is no doubt that you had so much more to give. It was a sad day when you left us. You will never be forgotten.
@@markprange4386 This is so sad. This disease is terrible. In bad times I weighed about 4629.7 pounds or 42 kilograms. I have changed my life and now I finally weigh 10 kilograms more. It is a pity that Karen could not get out of this vicious circle. These thin arms remind me of the old days with me. She tried to hide this disease with her clothes. In vain. The world has lost a good singer and unfortunately this disease has won. What a loss.😭
Whenever I hear Karen I think about the horrible loss of such a talent and that is just my selfishness. Everyone says good things about her so it is just awful she had to suffer so much. I think about a lot of the basically crap the industry foists on us and realize how much we lost in a talent like Karen. Love you Karen and your wonderful music we still have.
Beautiful...it is also rare to see Karen sing live (especially this late in her life)...most tv sessions were pre-recorded lip-syncing, nice to see her singing live.
I mean the song is her harassing the post man about a letter. Obviously she can just wait to get it instead of ruining the mans day by constantly asking lol
¡¡KAREN CARPENTER . . . .KAREN CARPENTER!! . INCREDIBLE VOICE , WHAT TRACENDER DID TO THE GROUP. SHOULD HAVE JUST BEEN CALLED KAREN CARPENTER . . . . INSTEAD OF THE CARPENTERS I’M FROM PERU AND I KEEP LISTENING TO THE IRREPLACEABLE KAREN CARPENTER
She could not stay here for long , her voice showed that it was an angel. You can see that her voice remained , although her body has not supported this existence for a long time!!!
after this song she had 5 years left what a shame that world would lose a beautiful awesome singer like her. At least her legacy lasts that we can all enjoy
Linda 96 this song mr posman by k carpenters reminds me when i got engage seeing each other was not wellcome because of family arrangement she was living eit her family si iwrote bundleds of love letters she replied happy that my letters arrived at her destination i am in love
2/3/2023 hubieras cumplido setenta y tres años. Lamentablemente te fuiste hace mucho pero quedó tu hermosa voz y tus inolvidables canciones. Por siempre Karen !!!
Para el jovencito que tiene catorce años, lo feliicito porque le gusta esta canción. Particularmente yo pienso que deberían haber cantantes que le canten a la vida y no las huachaferías que se escuchan en la radio, celular, etc.
those songs still had a lot of sense than that of now... and we appreciate the lyrics... unlike some of the songs we have now they make a lot of noise i cant appreciate it
what did she weigh.......for gods sake.........88 lbs................good heavens.........my dog weighs more than that.............i guess you can chalk it up to EVIL people..........
She had the most beautiful and soothing voice and was SO BEAUTIFUL her management team was so terrible to her telling her she had to change her image that’s why she ended up with anorexia and heart problems that killed her
I love Karen's voice pure gold. She could sing anything and it sounded great. She was losing a lot of weight by 1978-1979 and moved into baggy outfits to conceal how shockingly thin she had become. She battled with an eating disorder and purged regularly starving herself to death. She looks so happy here but its all an act she died not long after this in the early 80's after her solo album.
I was an alto and always told Sopranos were superior and you were basically not a good singer if you were an alto and to sit your ass down. KAREN CARPENTER, MAMA CASS AND LANA DEL REY. Can we please add to this list????

this is a clear example of what a beautiful is about. No fireworks, no high belting notes. Just pure voice, swing and clearness.
@emin RIFFS AND RUNS like today singers. They're all about high notes and riffs and runs
The original song isn't from the Beatles, it's from the Marvellets
Her voice is so perfect and she is singing it live on TV. My fav singer of all time and there will never be one like her!!
aallpp55 Have you heard of whitney houston. Not discrediting Karen Carpenter! She is a great singer but just listen to whitney
Adore her too, if you like her you most probably dig the seekers too.
Deary Me No thanks, she’s not remotely as talented as Karen was
@@Ilikebernie I love Whitney, but Karen Carpenter had the best voice ever.
The fact I'm a 31 year old male and every time I get pissed I listen to the carpenters. Karens voice is like a brain massage!
The only pleasant Karen
A good Karen!
Now 36 years.

John Lennon tells the story much better, he really seems to be suffering as much as the person waiting for the card.
She was very ill at the time, still her voice was as beautiful as ever.
She always looked so ill - especially towards the end, inevitably. So sad.
The only years she looked healthy was from 69-72. But yes, obviously suffering from her eating disorder here. She’s 28 here but looks like she could be pushing 60. Tragic
a professional. imagine these years if she were still among us. 💜

Ela brinca com as letras, harmonia, voz , saindo com muita perfeição, obrigado Karen.
I’ll miss you forever, beautiful Karen. 😪 R.I.P. ✝️💐❤️
karen was so beautiful and her voice was wonderful
This beautiful voice goes straight into the heart! Sax is one of the finest instruments for all the times! I love, to play it.
I love Karen Carpenter it´s such a shame that nobody could help her, she looks so sad and sick, but that beautiful voice still remain
Such a powerful voice! She will always be missed. Thanks for sharing!
you never hear a off note from this great singer! perfect pitch!!!!!!!
Poor thing.... such a tragedy, her voice was AMAZING!

Karen e a mais linda voz da música mundial
VERDADE, Deixou muitas saudades
Concordo com você.
You can see that she's already skinny here
This is in the late 70s when she was without Richard. Karen's first anorectic breakdown had been in August 1975.

Sounds starved
She's simply lovely
Yes karen was iconic, there will never be a legend like karen
ever again? in my view karen had the best singing voice of all time?
She looks so sick
you can really see the anorexia in this video, her face so gaunt! killer disease, wonder what would've been if she were still alive!
Yes, she was very ill in this Video. RIP
I was just singing this song today and alas it popped up here.
Dear Karen, wish you loved yourself as much as we love you.
Whenever I hear Karen I think about the horrible loss of such a talent and that is just my
selfishness. Everyone says good things about her so it is just awful she had to suffer so much. I think about a lot of the basically crap the industry foists on us and realize
how much we lost in a talent like Karen. Love you Karen and your wonderful music we
still have.
Not looking so good here, but in her day, NO ONE IN THE HISTORY OF MUSIC COULD SING LIKE HER!!
I love seeing peoples faces when my playlist goes from Slayer and Pantera to The Carpenters and Patsy Cline.... 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can imagine that jajajja, my playlist TOTO, then Colombian music, Carpenters...Madonna jajaaaaajjaja
la mejor voz melódica que existió
a karen tinha uma voz tao linda ❤️
Beautiful...it is also rare to see Karen sing live (especially this late in her life)...most tv sessions were pre-recorded lip-syncing, nice to see her singing live.
Karen, you were the best...
Carpenters, ABBA, Bee Gees, Steve Miller Band, Supertramp... man, the 70s were fucking awesome
su voz transmitia una paz interior tan bella.
Today is her 35th Death Anniversary. Rest in peace Karen. Thank you for the songs you left us.
No auto-tune. No suggestive backup dancers. Just... a good song.
Zippy agree
Agree!
100% Agree

In this clip, you can see her anorexia. Didn't affect her excellent pipes.
i was born in 92
but i really love this girl :)
i love all her song..

Love her voice. She is very much missed.
I missing you Karen, forever. A voz mais linda e doce de todos os tempos.
Que pena essa menina morreu tão jovem mas deixou essas lindas músicas e essa voz maravilhosa
VERDADE, se foi tão jovem, com 32 anos m. Deixou muitas saudades
Fico pensando como Deus e seus anjos estão felizes ouvindo essa voz maravilhosa cantando na glória, aonde está descansando eternamente 🙌
Love her voice, and the guitar solo rocked...
この曲学校の授業で今歌ってて好きだからききにきたー！
私も今、歌ってます❗
Que hermosa voz tenia esta chica ❤️ que en paz descanse siempre seras recordada Karen carpenter
Was this during the time that Richard was in rehab? He doesn't appear to be here.
He had gone into rehab later in 79, never know were he was, know he did studio recoding as well

By far a voice in its own class! Sorry ladies, she is the best ever.
She could not stay here for long , her voice showed that it was an angel. You can see that her voice remained , although her body has not supported this existence for a long time!!!
She is just awesome . Love her voice and miss her presentation even now .
Everyone could see that she was sick......except herself
I hate those people who drove her to self-destruct 😢.. she's beautiful as she is .. love you Ms. Karen ♥️
#Pinas
The same could have happened to Marie Osmond if her mother hadn't intervened.
Great voice and... why not beautiful face. RIP Karen Carpenter
Karen in her declining years....anorexia was def in full swing....

Em 1978 já estava bem magra.
I really like the carpenters but it's sad that she died but I'm only 8 and I have the cd
She'd only just begun, but tomorrow was not brighter than today and she ended up playing solitaire.
My favorite version of this song. Her voice is ethereal.
Amazing outfit, she’s so stunning… already sick 😢 but amazing ❤
I watching ever EVER!
Love karen ,my lady 😎
Great Performance! You can tell though that she is "sick" here... :(.

Excellent song!
