Beautiful video and reactions, guys for a wonderful song! 🤗🤗🤗

Karen was one of a kind. There will never be another like her. She had such a pure calming voice. And she was a terrific drummer. That was her passion even more than singing. Sadly we lost her so young. Thankfully we have her legacy left in her music.
Very cute baby... 👶🏼
Well said
Another artist we wish we could just go back and hug and make everything okay.
We lost her at the age of 32, she died of heart failure due to complications from anorexia.
@@bradk4036 I was at school when this happened never forget it, same with Princess Diana, know exactly where and when, such a loss with both.
She had an incredible voice, her brother is also very underrated, they made the group together.
The Carpenters were awesome, and always will be.
This song was composed by Burt Bacharach. He was a monster hit writer, most notably for Dion Warwick.
Karen Carpenters voice was a gift from the gods. She is irreplaceable.
From God.
Probably the greatest female voice of all time. Just pure gold. No effort and so clear and clean. Aretha would be best singer.
Best female singer ever!! Any song by the Carpenters is a classic. Been a fan for over 40 years.
Yep fan for 50
@@rebeccawyse5562 me too
@@rebeccawyse5562 I had to get every 45 and album.
Back in the day when artists actually had talent. Today, every artist is manufactured.
And you guys pull my heart strings having baby Luka in the video! Love y’all!
not every artist is manufactured, maybe you just dont look much
@@davyblackburn4090
True, I don’t attend coffee parties,
Karen Carpenter... Simply the best female singer of all time. The so called singers of today cannot hold a candle to this woman. Her passing was a tragedy. RIP Karen.
awe, Baby Luca is precious. Perfect song for him.
What a beautiful little boy.
The baby melted my heart more than the song. What a cute baby!
Clear and pitch perfect. Karen Carpenter sang like an angel.
greatest vocalist of all time...angelic silky smooth....pure
Karen wasn't just a drummer, she was a world class drummer.
She was fucking solid for the time, not just gong through the motions at all!
People forget what a great percussionist she was. She was never happier than behind her drum kit…
This particular song doesn’t demonstrate just how bloody good a drummer she was!
Jax too
Hal Blaine on drums for most top Carpenter recordings.
It is still 3 months away, but The Carpenter's "Merry Christmas Darling" is one you need to file away for Christmas / December. I always have leaking eyes for it.
Yes
Love that song!! A Christmas staple.
Yes,
This is a holiday fav. For the rest of Christmas 🎄 time!
It always warms my soul
Karen Carpenter is the only female vocalist to make a man's eyes water because of the combination of her voice, Richards voice and piano playing along with the harmony. Karen is the top female vocalist of all time in my book.
Mine to. Grew up hearing her on the radio. She does bring the tears. Still my favorite female voice.
Karen's voice always make me cry. So beautiful.
Amen to that.
She actually was an incredible drummer.
Absolute tragedy beautiful voice, rainy days and Monday's chokes me up every time R.i.p Karen.
This was one of my go-to songs when I was auditioning frequently.
@@muffinamy83 I hope you did it justice she had a beautiful voice
My fav as well
I personally believe that her voice is so amazing precisely because of the haunting psycological pain inside her, wich in the end took her life through anorexia. Starving herself to death gave her a sad, sad, soulful voice (technically her heart gave out, when she started putting on a little weight again).
@@peterkragelund4794 Beutiful voice before the media started calling her a chubby little girl
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Karen Carpenter... the sweetest voice of all!
My mom used to sing this to me when I was a little girl in the early 70’s. My mom is 85 now and suffers from dementia, but when I sing this song to her, she joins in. For a moment, I have my mom back.
The greatest female voice of all time. RIP to such a troubled soul.
I, for one, absolutely enjoy Luca and his baby noises. He is a doll.
RIP Karen Carpenter, you had one precious voice
Karen’s voice was the purest, cleanest was beautiful female singing voice ever.
The only Karen no one hates. LMAO!
Jokes aside, I used to listen to their albums going to sleep at night. Her voice is absolutely magical. I cried the day her death was announced. The Carpenters were HUGE back in the 70s, and deservedly so. They were the king and queen of AM radio(the "lighter" stuff, back then). At my 6th grade "graduation" to Jr. High School, we sang their song "We've Only Just Begun". Her brother still makes music, but without her voice, it's just not the same.
lmao i still do
Really wish we could stop shredding the name 🙏
@Mal weston do you really believe “we” all are horrible woman?????
Funny comment...but I do have a precious Karen.
@@karencurtis4374 I only learned about the whole "karens" thing maybe two years ago and I hated it. Why do people have to ruin such a beautiful name?
(At least it's probably not going to stay as permanently ruined as "Lucifer". "Light-bringer" is a *beautiful* meaning for a name.)
Karen Carpenter was a drummer first. She just happened to be able to sing while drumming. She always said she was a drummer who sang. She also happened to be a virtuoso at both. She was one of the best drummers EVER. Her voice was absolutely without peer. She was the entire package.
Rainy days and Mondays is another song where Karen plays the drums.
I was LITERALLY gunna leave this EXACT comment!! You got the mail on the head Guurrll!!!
There is such a depth of sadness in Rainy Days and Mondays. Beautiful song sung by a beautiful woman who died way too young 😢
Karen was a treasure. I love the way she can drop an octave and a half and just nail that low vibrato to the wall. Truly one of the great voices.
SHE WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST drummers EVER
Paul McCartney stated that; "she has the best female voice in the world, melodic, tuneful and distinctive."
"Yesterday Once More" is a great song!
It was actually John lennon
Frank Sinatra said she was the only singer that he would pay to listen to.
:@@chrisalldis3375 I think John actually approached her in a restaurant and told her personally, that she had a great voice, she nearly fell over.
I still love the Carpenters to this day
Every time I hear Karen, I shed tears. Voice of an angel.
Queen= somebody to love= we are the the campions
Karen had a once in a Generation voice! Phenomenal!
A tragic loss to the world when she passed. 😥
I've been a drummer for over 40 years...Karen was a MONSTER drummer...A real pro...She could sight read and was pro trained...Karen rips my heart out...Her life was so tragic and her songs and voice were so beautiful...
Karen in her school where she went was teach for a man that try to she play other instruments like violin or other. But she preferred the drums. Mr. Frankie Chaves was her teacher in drums.
She got kicked off the drums by management. They didn't want her to be playing them
Must have been hard for Richard to go through losing his sister like that.
Monster?
@@Coowallsky Meaning great...Like; Rainy days and Mondays was a MONSTER hit...
Professional.....you never hear her breathing in...that's class...
Luca looking in daddy’s eyes! Wonderful with the Carpenters, He loves it too ❤
We've Only Just Begun was/is an iconic wedding song... truly beautiful!
She had the most beautiful velvety voice. Such a tragic life & the world lost a rare talent when she died. I would also recommend "We've Only Just Begun", Rainy Days & Mondays" & "I Won't Last a Day Without You."
And Baby Luca just wanted to sing along!
My favorite was "Hurting Each Other"
@@bryanwhitton1784 Great one - I forgot about that song
First off, Luke is adorable (or was 2 years ago when this reaction video was made) and I'm sure that he still is! I believe that this is the most beautiful Carpenters song in a catalog full of them. The combination of harmonies, horns, flute, piano, Karen's mesmerizing contralto voice and percussion makes this an unforgettable, timeless song.
Thanks for taking time to do a reaction on it! Not easy when you have a baby that young! I know, I have 3 grown ones and 5 Grandkids so far.
Karen was 19 years old when she recorded this.
Her voice is like warm honey...
Karen Carpenter was a phenomenal singer. I was a paper boy when she died and I cried when I read the headline. She was a great drummer too, but she was better up front.
February made me shiver.. with every paper I’d deliver.. bad news on the doorstep.. I couldn’t take one more step…. The day the music died
As a public figure, Karen also exhibited grace and class. Everybody liked her. She was deeply mourned when she died, and in death, she ascended from superstar to legend.
"Bless The Beasts & The Children", it will bring a tear. When Karen died, the world truly lost an inspiration of love.
Luka stared hard at you. I loved holding my little ones. Used to take my shirt off & hold them up under a wrap/blanket while in the rocking chair. Listening to music by candle light. Some great memories! Bless the beasts & the children....
Bless the beasts and the children is my favorite.
great suggestions
There's a movie called Bless the Beasts and the Children and it uses their song as it's theme. The movie came out in 1971. I didn't know if there were still copies of this movie around so I searched, and wouldn't you know it...a copy on youtub...full version...

@@summersands8105 I'll have to watch it again. It has been many years. Thanks!
@@martink3804 Hi Martin! I'm going to watch it again too. I have to prep myself for it as it made me cry the first time. lol
Karen and Richard Carpenter were the group. He wrote some of the songs and played the piano. So sad how the stress in her life affected her health. One of the best female vocalists ever.
She died from anorexia. It was tragic. The world lost a true gift.
Yup, duo.
Her brother, Richard, on piano, gets a bit overlooked. But Karen is one of a kind in any case!
Little known factoid: Karen Carpenter had the nickname of "One-Take Karen" as she always arrived at a recording session completely prepared. She knew her lyrics, she knew her tempo, she knew how she wanted it to sound so when retakes and re-recordings were required it was basically never because of Karen.
It's sad that in modern times "Karen" is a name used so disparagingly.
Karen Carpenter is the one Karen that nobody can hate. :)
A recent rather large online poll voted the whole "Karen" trend as the most tiresome and annoying current fad. I don't know, maybe because of that, it might start going away. People are sick of it I guess. I remember this same poll a few years back when the term "On Fleek" made number one as the most tiresome fad. But getting back to Karen Carpenter, what an incredible talent and sweet person she was. Very sad....
So unfair to Karen Carpenter. I was a big fan of the Carpenters.....beautiful music. She had an amazing voice.
Karen was really shy and introverted. So she felt that she had to do it right to not feel the stress…
Yes, the Carpenters are a brother and sister duo. He was on piano and wrote most of their material. They are backed up by various musicians. Little Luca was a fun addition to the video. :)
Most of their songs were written by other songwriters.
Richard did some of the songwriting (and played the piano and did the arranging), but many of the early hits were from outside songwriters. This is Burt Bachrach (music) and Hal David (lyrics), a very successful team. (I periodically mention "The Look of Love" by Dusty Springfield; they wrote that, too.)
@@Jessica_Roth My bad., I thought he wrote more of them. You can always tell the Burt Bachrach ones of course.
@@bengilbert7655 Thanks for the schooling. . I'd thought he wrote a lot more of them.
@@J_Gamble Didn't mean to "mansplain." :)
The fellow playing the keyboards is Karen Carpenters brother . The Carpenters were the first concert I ever went to . Great !
The Carpenters were red hot in the late 60's and early 70's. They faded and made a resurgence in the late 70's to have just enough hits late in the decade to be the group with the most chart hits in the 1970's. Karen's voice was extraordinary.
This song is SOOOO ICONIC!! I'm a metal fan, and I love this song.
You should check out the tribute album done in the 90's by several relatively popular alternative bands of the time. I'm also a metal fan, but I love that album!! Sonic Youth kills it on their eerie cover of Superstar.
Karen had one of the greatest voices in American music, but never considered herself a singer. She would have been perfectly satisfied to stay in the back with her drums....and felt very shy about stepping out front as a vocalist.
Yes. They had to coax her out front. Baby steps.
@@oldmanghost219 A musician friend of mine was at a Carpenters concert at a large auditorium in the 1970's. A large thunderstorm outside knocked the electricity out. After a few minutes, the crowd noise died down and Karen Carpenter told the audience from the stage to be very quiet and that she would sing a tune a cappella without a mike or sound system. He related that her strong singing voice--in perfect pitch--filled the whole auditorium. The electricity came back on by the next tune, but everyone in that auditorium knew that they had just heard something magical. Yes, she was very, very good.
Her brother plays piano and does all the musical arrangements. Karen was also a drummer - very very good drummer, and her voice was discovered almost by accident. A beautiful contralto voice, with tone and pitch always perfect. Frank Sinatra once said that she was the only female singer he would pay to see in concert. Heaven has a lead angel singer in Karen. RIP
The Carpenters were amazing back in the day. I was straight rock and roll but my guilty pleasure was the Carpenters.
The Carpenters (officially known as Carpenters)[a] were an American vocal and instrumental duo consisting of siblings Karen (1950-1983) and Richard Carpenter (born 1946). They produced a distinct soft musical style, combining Karen's contralto vocals with Richard's harmonizing, arranging and composition skills. During their 14-year career, the Carpenters recorded 10 albums along with numerous singles and several television specials.
There was a movie about them that chronicled their relationship with each other, rise to stardom, the struggle to get Karen from behind the drums and her struggle with anorexia that although tragic for Karen did a lot to shine a light on Anorexia and help so many others.
Their mother had raised Richard to be a classical pianist and was actually disappointed that he kind of became second fiddle.
Karen had perfect pitch in her voice.
Karen is so special to me because her story made me realize I had anorexia and made me stop. I didn't know what it was and that it could kill me. So she saved me❤❤ RIP Sweet girl.
Dionne Warwick, who was with A&M records in the 60s, took The Carpenters under her wing when they blew up in 1970 and Dionne grew to love Karen and her amazing voice!
This was a much played song. A great hit. It introduced the world to the fabulous Karen Carpenter! The Carpenters are just Karen Carpenter and her brother Richard.
No there are other male members of the group, one of them was Cubbie in the Mousketeers.
czcams.com/video/__VQX2Xn7tI/video.html
@@shelter9236 the voices are ONLY karen and richard, as karen sang lead, richard back up and they did all of the background harmonies...
@@shelter9236 No. Carpenters are ONLY Karen and Richard. The others are their backing band which joined them when they went on tour, or appeared with them in their music videos. Just look at all their albums covers. It is just the two of them, Siblings Karen Carpenter and Richard Carpenter.
@@calvinmurty8273 Richard played piano and did most of the arrangements
@@kevinhodgson2990 Yes indeed. He also produced all their studio albums, selected the songs for them, did the background vocals (with Karen), and sang lead solo vocals on certain tracks in their first few albums (ie those from 1969-73).
Karen Carpenter's voice is iconic, angelic & smoother than melted butter!!! Their harmonies are amazing!!!
I love how excited Amber got when the trumpet started playing.
Richard was the arranger, composer and producer of all of their music. Great brother, sister duo. Complimenting each other's talents.
Karen resisted stepping out from the drums. Richard did all of the arrangements. Karen was very shy. When they forced her to just sing was the beginning of her eating disorder.
Wow, that's so sad. I grew up hearing them and did not know that. It seems cruel now😢
Should have just left her alone and do what she loved!
Hal Blaine of the Wrecking Crew played the drums for the recordings because Karen wasn’t seasoned in that atmosphere. Joe Osborn on bass actually “ discovered them”. The background vocals were provided by The Ron Hicklin Singers, a staple in the industry back in the day.
I believe her eating disorder has to do with her personal relationships with her Mom especially
@@verapena9465🎯
There's nothing like a Burt Bacharach melody. He put notes together like no one else. Check out some of his hits with Dionne Warwick.
Been meaning to recommend Dionne, she is great!
Absolutely! 👍
Auntie Dionne is one of my favorite follows on twitter - she's a hoot!
It is known to me that Whitney Huston is a cousin to Dionne Warrick. "I Say A Little Prayer For You," is one of Dionne's greatest hits. Oddly enough Whitney and Natalie Cole sang a duo, also making this song a great hit. This would be a perfect selection for "Female Friday."
Yes! I love Burt Bacharah! Since I was a teenager!
RIP - KAREN, you so missed. But, you left us with your beautiful voice, to enjoy for eternity. God bless you.
Her voice was so great; her ending was so very sad.
As phenomenal as her voice was, she considered herself a drummer who sang and not a singer who played drums. She has a couple of videos of her drumming that are amazing.
So true, and I love how she played up her amazing drumming skills. She was so modest and humble, I don't even think she was aware of how phenomenal her voice actually was. Miss her more than words can express. 😔🙏🏽💖
I'm not normally a fan of live videos, but seeing beautiful Karen in her prime singing and playing the drums was a real bittersweet treat, knowing that the world will never experience the return of the Carpenters
True, she learned the correct play, and she was good at it. A lot of young people want to skip all the mundane things that make a good drummer and just start pounding. You can see Karen's techniques and approaches were good. She could've been a heavily sought session player if she'd wanted that instead of being onstage.
The Carpenters were indeed just two - Richard Carpenter and his sister, Karen. She had the golden voice and he was a master arranger largely responsible for their unique sound.
Karen is considered by many of her contempories as one of the best drummers ever.
Your opinion not to take away her skills but Sheena Easton was the best period
@@glennquagmire1747 Considering he didn't say she was the best, he said one of the best. I had heard Sheena Easton had played the drums but can't find anything on CZcams. Maybe you can suggest one.
@@glennquagmire1747 Do you mean Shelia E.? Sheena Easton was only a singer. And I love Shelia E., but she's not remotely the best drummer. She's actually technically a percussionist (those are timbales she's playing). I've never actually seen her behind a drum kit.
And Karen Carpenter was dead by 1983, so the contemporaries that were referring to her as one of the best were people like Buddy Rich and Hal Blaine, guys that had been around for a long time (Hal Blaine was the most recorded session drummer in the world, ever).
@@ckalinwi Actually Sheena Easton was a drummer which I didn't know until I Googled it.
Luca is an absolute doll. And it is obvious how loved he is.
Karen had a voice like velvet. Check out their song "We've Only Just Begun".
Played at every wedding!
I'm a Christmas music nerd and The Carpenters have a great Christmas album. Not for review on the channel, but for your family use.
That Christmas Album is one of my favorite Christmas albums.
I cannot do Christmas without Carpenters music
The best female singer I've ever heard, a velvet voice, first heard her sing when i was very young about 6 or 7. And I've listened to lots of songs over the decades i been alive, she could have sung anything and it would have been brilliant. Sadly taken from us all at such a young age.
Luv KC...in my top 5 greatest female vocalists of the last 122 years...gorgeous...
My wife and I love the Carpenters! Their song We've Only Just Begun was released August 21st 1970. We got married on August 16th 1970. So it's very special to us. We even got the opportunity to see them live in 1972. Karen's voice is melodic and so pure. And she was fantastic on the drums! It was an amazing performance! We have a few of their albums and still enjoy them. Would love to see you react to more of their music.
Congratulations for 51 years of marriage.
@@chrisclanton4430 Thanks so much! Appreciate it!
Written by Burt Bacharach, this was a huge hit in its day. Karen Carpenter at her peak. Great selection for Female Friday.👍
BTW, Dionne Warwick (Whitney Houston’s aunt) sang a lot of Burt Bacharach songs and has a unique voice too.
Bachrach is still my favorite composer. His musical ideas are so unusual, and he always makes it work.
I'm so old when listening to Dianne Warwick, no idea what a Whitney Houston was. ..🤣 and Burt played the piano one night at a dinner party at my dad's in Malibu, long ago.
She's her cousin, not her aunt.
Heartbreaker is my favorite of hers...
@@kejo7779 Heartbreaker was her biggest hit and she didn't really like the song. The Bee Gees wrote it and went to her home and begged her to do the song. I'm glad she did because it one of my favorite songs of hers.
Karen's voice was amazing. As to the song, it was composed by Burt Bacharach, that's a pedigree that's hard to deny. Great reaction.
What nobody has mentioned in the comments is that for all their recordings, Karen and Richard provided the backing vocals themselves, layering each track. That's why the studio versions sound so creamy, if you will...It's all them.
This song, and their song "We've Only Just Begun," were sung at almost every wedding from around 1975 to the present.
It was our 'first dance' wedding song, 1998 ❤
They both came out in 1970. That year also saw the number one hit "Make It With You" by Bread. First dances were never the same again.
Karen's voice is like a warm blanket...completely enveloping you, and giving you a sense of protection. The Carpenters are one of the few groups that you never need a lyric sheet for...thanks to Karen's incredibly clear singing.
You guys are real life on display. Awesome family.
A weighted warm blanket!
Even at 4 years old I was playing my parents Carpenters album.
Well said
@@joanmaciel416 I'll second that, Joan. Doggone, I am so lucky to have grown up right during the thick of music like this (Beatles, Chicago, Doobies, America, Stones, Gordon Lightfoot, James Taylor, Stevie Wonder, Jackson 5, and on and on...)-- and to have actually seen The Carpenters in concert once, in 1973. They were fantastic live, and Karen was so humble and gracious.
Baby Luca gazing up at Daddy. Too sweet.
First of all, your baby is adorable! Second realize that Karen Carpenter is a legend and a voice like that will likely never come around again in our lifetimes. Also realize there was no such thing as autotune in those days. This is sheer talent.
This was played at every school dance, prom, weddings. Huge Huge hit that year. She was a badass on drums - there is a video someone here of her performing a drum solo
The fact that your baby cried during this song of all songs made my day. It’s beautiful, your baby’s beautiful and so are you guys. Thank you for the good vibes you send out always.
"We've Only Just Begun" is an absolute must listen!
Baby Luca... what a handsome little fellow! He was the star of this video! 🙂
Karen and her brother Richard make the Carpenters ☮️💜
One of the three most gorgeous voices of all time. Along with Patsy Cline & Jim Reeves, I could listen to Karen Carpenter sing the weather forecast and be entranced.
My all time favorite Carpenter's song...
Majestic and Angelic doesn't do her justice, her voice never breaks even when she changes registers, it's amazing, Paul McCartney said she was the greatest female voice he ever heard. It's raw powerful and PURE. She's also a damn good drummer but when she passed away only then did I and many others realize what a gift we lost, it was devastating, she is not of this world.
Jordan, you've moved away from just rap, to realize that there's a vast world of music out there. Now, bro, it's time to move away from just SPORTS movies. Soooooo many brilliant movies out there :-)
Night Ranger - Sister Christian.. the singer is playing the drums and it was a super hit in 1983.. for some reason that song was popular with rock, pop and hard rock fans alike... everyone loved it
You should check out Revolution Saints. It band has a member of Night Ranger, and the drummer is the singer, too.
The best female singer I have ever heard ❤
Karen's voice was one of a kind and one you will never forget!!!!
The SUPER 70S IN A NUT SHELL
Congrats!
You have to listen to The Carpenters - We've only Just Begun
Her voice is like hug. Always has been🙂
I love the Carpenters always have always will but that Adorable little baby just stoled the whole show.
That precious baby looking at Daddy.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The Carpenters - Rainy Days and Mondays
Can’t say enough about Karen carpenter. She’s considered as having one of the best female voices ever!! Her brother Richard was super talented as well. You guys reacted to superstar, my fave carpenter song. Check out rainy days & Mondays & if you really want to see her true love, check out her drum solo video. RIP KAREN ❤️😇❤️
And then they need to react to Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft.
Richard Carpenter made it a point to have Karen speak very close into the microphone when she sang. Every single click or moistening of her mouth was captured, which was part of how amazing her voice was captured!!
One of my dear friends wrote three books on Karen Carpenter, so I’m going based on what he told me! Lol
She was a world class drummer. Fantastic voice. Passed way too soon from anorexia
For me Karen Carpenter sets the benchmark for ALL female singers, such a pure beautiful voice, she really had the voice of an Angel and her adult life was such a sad tragic story. Rainy Days and Mondays as well as We've only just begun are both amazing tracks and well worth a listen. have a great weekend guys.
RIP Karen
