Only Karen Carpenter could do such a perfect remake that was originally done by the marvelous Marvelettes. The song was done perfectly by the Marvelettes but Karen did such a fantastic job doing a such a classic that would be a task to match the original. Thank you dear father for blessing us with such talents as Karen Carpenter and the Marvelettes. Never again will beautiful music and such talent like this be discovered.

I’m a ‘95 baby and LOVE Carpenters, Karen’s voice is like no one else’s, I wish we could have been living when she was… but we can carry on her and Richard’s legacy! And I agree, their songs have actual melodies and true feeling, they’re authentic. The songs these days don’t even come close.

Olivia, anorexia nervosa is a serious mental disorder. It goes so much deeper than anyone thinking they're fat. Karen had the disorder for 8 years starting in 1975. There was precious little information or understanding about it back then. It was Karen's struggle and death which brought it out of the shadows. Her death literally prompted much more proactive research by psychiatrists. However, too little, too late. : (
