I so LOVE Karen Carpenter's outfit:)!! She had a lovely voice and a nice smile:)!! Even though she was sick, she still performed this song well and I so wish she was still alive.
Her outfit reminds me of the Abba girls' wardrobe in the same period. I think Karen got some influence from Agnetha and Anni Frid.
Would’ve been prettier with a skirt. But the jacket and cami underneath are beautiful
Thanks so much I still love "Karen Carpenter"
Such a captivating voice. Love Karen Carpenter always.
Saw Karen in her prime. Sad to have lost such a SUPER TALENT so early.
Wow what an amazing and what a beautiful voice of Karen carpenter!you will always be in our hearts.
Voice of an angel. R.I.P. karen.
Such a multi gifted,, beautiful, tragic, artist .The world will always miss Karen 💔
☹ as a little child that always love Karen Carpenter! I'm on at Karen Carpenter kick right now and as I'm watching her videos... This one out of all of them have made me extremely sad because she looks so gaunt to the point it makes me scared even though she's gone a long time ago
Just when I thought I've seen all the youtube vids of Karen, I found this! Thank you for the upload!
Poor honey, so so pitifully thin, there is nothing left of her! Rest in peace, dear , sweet angel.
I finally found this clip that goes with this song! Always liked this song.Karen sounds happy doing this song.Brings back great memories! Thanks alot for posting!
First time hearing looped for an hour love it sooooo much can't get enough so good to listen to whilst creating songs, makes me think of tunes
Just discovered this particular performance. Wow, so much life and vitality, such a lovely lady.
What a beautiful voice. She is gone to soon.
Same outfit from music, music,music and Olivia's Hollywood Nights. Precious angel.
Yikes- she didn't have the padding in the pants for Music, Music, Music so I guess she was even smaller here.
i love you karen, listening in 2021 , RIP my dear. Here fom Brazil
Karen and Richard clearly had great taste loving The Marvelettes enough to cover two of their songs. Love their covers too.
LOVE HER MELODIOUS GOLDEN VOICE
WISH SOOOO MUCH THAT KAREN CARPENTER WAS HERE TODAY
großartig und einladend zum tanzen ist dieses Lied - Danke Carpenters!
It's just such a sad thing to see someone fad away from being on binge diets being afraid of gaining weight, from what I gather she would do whatever to stop from herself from gaining weight, I started to worry about my own daughter at a time she wasn't wanting to eat much anything & drastically started loosing much weight & I told her that doing what she was doing would only cause here to have health problems, one day she asked me she wasn't happy with her nose I told her that she needed to stop with her awful dieting being it would ultimately disfigure her face & body, today she is doing a bit better but it worries me yet being she use to tell me she doesn't want to be fat I can say this my daughter never came close to ever looking fat at all hopefully she takes the advise from me I would only hope & pray she does I can't do no more than what I have already did.
beautiful
This is the theme song of my youth.
Uma voz maravilhosa
랄랄라라랄라~~ 카펜터스노래중에 몇안되믄 신나는노래라서 좋음ㅎㅎㅎ
Crazy she was only 31 here...rest in peace Karen dear.
@@dddddadadad1796Maybe the original poster was referring to her hollow cheeks (anorexia) that is making her look older than she was?
Wow! Great quality. Thanks!! Karen's pants is just too big for her tiny body.
aallpp55 There was padding sewn into the pants so people wouldn't see how skinny her legs were.
@@PeridotLioness85 there was NO padding sewn into her pants. STOP IT. Her clothing was NEVER altered in this way.
@@dddddadadad1796 YES, there was. Her own brother Richard said there was. One of her friends had said that she was basically a walking skeleton.
Me encanta...
So sad to see her like this - it seems that her marriage to that awful crook really took its toll on her illness (as well as her solo album getting cancelled). Her voice was still incredible but if only someone had gotten her help sooner....
I haven't seen this before today. Only the original video. This is quite different to that. Karen looks good except she looks so gaunt in the face. It was only 13 months later and she was gone.
her cheeks are so sunken in here. pretty outfit, though. RIP, Karen.
Her anorexia was in full swing here. And her outfit was padded to hide how skinny she is
paused at 0:54 and made me so sad...
There is a clip on UA-cam from Brazilian TV in 1981 ,where they do a full close-up of Karens face - it,s not a pretty sight.
Don't be shy just take your time💗
oh my, she looks so painfully thin :(
Carla Moraga yes and at this point she was 29/30 and she looks like a very old woman and awfully straw like hair and sunken cheeks , shocking to see
@@leenmattar3983 . No she didn't. She died from complications due to the anorexia. She was actually getting better but her heart was too damaged from years of malnutrition
Since they decided to go with that padding in the pants, --> which is obviously bad--> she must have looked even worse without the padding.
It's not padding really. The video distorts her and makes her look normal but she was way skeletons with big boney hips as she had larger hips and no matter how much weight she lost, those hips were there....it ran in her family....if you look at other clips during this time you will see this is not the way she really looked...she looked bad!
@cd72 Yes it is padding, Richard stated in an interview. Also U can tell it is.
I love you KC..I'm still here waiting..Please visit me at night at my dream...u're still my baby and my girlfriend..
What album was it taken from? Greatest Hits or Made In America?
Favoriete plaat van Jan de Hoop in een ver verleden als Frank van der Mast.
The promotional tour for the Made In America album seems to have been grueling for her. I'm sure she would have preferred to be home with her husband. Or doing anything else besides touring.
Bless her soul...looking so weak and thin...but sounding great as always.
She looks like a normal thin woman. Pls stop. We see so many women that were built just like this back then.. and she clearly has hips and a shape. Just stop it.
She was around 30 years old here but looks 50 plus , never a good mover but amazing voice but a troubled woman who’s demons would take her to soon
She looks like a normal thin woman. Pls stop. We see so many women that were built just like this back then.. and she clearly has hips and a shape. Just stop it
@@dddddadadad1796 SHE WAS ANOREXIC that's why she was so thin. She would literally eat and then force herself to throw up.
@@dddddadadad1796 if you think she is just thin you are crazy , you can clearly see she isn’t well , using a puffed up outfit to hide just how thin she was wasn’t fooling anyone
I love her clothes
Poor darling her eyes are hollow and so are her cheeks. That outfit tries to hide her bony frame..... so sad she didn’t accept the truth we loved her before she got sick.
I watched the Carpenters story DVD yesterday. Carol looked wonderful up until about 1976 and after that it was a decline. I think they both worked themselves into the ground touring and recording.
I was thinking the same thing
Its makes me, a twelve year old, cry sometimes.
*Beechwood 4 5789* so catchy, never gets old!
I would have loved to have married her.
upper body so thin but hips and quads of a linebacker. bizarre.
Rob D that was her biggest concern. She had wide hips structurally and could not change it.
She looks so thin there
was she wearing padding in this video?
I think that was the last time my parents censored me of anything
What does Beechwood 4-5789 mean?
It's a telephone number. In the old days the first two or three numbers of a telephone number we're actually letters to help you remember them easier
A puffed up outfit to cover her Skeleton body at this point , 2 more years and it would be all over
@Darren T, pretty much. Ps, are we related..we have the same last name.
Oh crap I came here after seeing something creepy, I am so scared please can someone make me better!
SONG WAS OK... SHE WOULD HAVE BETTER OFF WITH JIMMY MAC ALTHOUGH LIKE SWEET SWEET SMILE SEEING HER LIVE IS BETTER THAN THE VIDEOS THAT WENT WITH THE SINGLES
Anorexics have a skewered body image and don't see themselves as thin, only fat. So, despite the sunken in cheeks, I'd be willing to bet Karen thought she looked stupendous.
She looks like a normal thin woman. Pls stop. We see so many women that were built just like this back then.. and she clearly has hips and a shape. Just stop it
Poor Karen. It’s what sometimes happens when you never feel pretty or good enough. Eating disorders. BDD. I have had BDD all my life due to not feeling good enough. I started life as a blue eyed blonde and when my hair darkened I was devastated felt so ugly. The pain brunettes go thru because we never feel as beautiful as blondes!! Karen was always compared to Olivia Newton John...
..she needed marijuana so she got hungry & ate.
r.i.p
It was the very opposite! She used drugs because she didnt want to feel hungry and eat. That's sad. She was a true diva gone too soon.
Funny enough she supported legalization but just didn't care for using it
Despite her illness she never lost her beautiful smile, I love you Karen for ever.
