I grew up listening to the easy sounds of Carpenters. Brings back memories of me and my sisters plus my grandma hurdled at the backseat of my dad's old Volvo slowly making its way to Cameron Highlands. Ohyea sure, the lyrics were corny (Top of the World & Jambalaya) -but Karen Carpenter's voice is deep and haunting. There's just a certain elegance to the way she sings. I would dare say there ain't another voice like hers at this time. My faves are "Touch Me When We're Dancing", "Rainy Days and Mondays", and "We've Only Just Begun".And here's leaving you an excerpt from the song We've Only Just Begun.....(dedicated to N2)
And when the evening comes we smile,
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow,
And yes, We've just begun.
