Cocktail party music with a swizzle stick of melancholy and gently shaken with introspection. Leaves me mellow and sad with the loss of the most disarming and beautiful singer ever.
Karen's deep, beautiful, gentle soul comes shining through when she sings. Dreams of just holding her hand and to go walking along a boardwalk by the Pacific Ocean.
Vocals and drums on this track..Karen Carpenter..Sublime gorgeous Angelic Singing.. Then the drums..Subtle nuanced Rythmn..Brilliant arrangements by Richard Carpenter(Piano track and jazzy solo)..Written by Leon Russell..There are great performances of his..George Benson too... This though seems on another level.. Yes..I like it😂🙏 A Masterpiece 🌠
It's exactly music like this that feels my soul more than any drug ever did for me , I go to the carpenters to keep me sober today there music especially Karen's voice is All the intoxication I need today. I just sit back and mediate to the Carpenters .
Listening to these songs they are much deeper then I ever thought. when listening to them as a kid. The Carpenters were dismissed a bubble gummy squares. It is not the case by any means. Just listen to the words and one if honest has to have respect for the songs as well as the delivery.
LYRICS Are we really happy with This lonely game we play Looking for the right words to say Searching but not finding Understanding anyway We're lost in this masquerade Both afraid to say we're just too far away From being close together from the start We tried to talk it over But the words got in the way We're lost inside this lonely game we play Thoughts of leaving disappear Each time I see your eyes And no matter how hard I try To understand the reason Why we carry on this way And we're lost in this masquerade We tried to talk it over But the words got in the way We're lost inside this lonely game we play Thoughts of leaving disappear Each time I see your eyes And no matter how hard I try To understand the reason Why we carry on this way And we're lost in this masquerade We're lost in a masquerade
these lyrics... they just cut right into my soul... "we're lost inside this lonely game we play" damn! they hurt like nothing else. @ 1986daman: I'm sorry...
I think this song means . It has a mysterious yet beautiful melody to it . They get together , their words go out the window . Another words they try to find the words . But they won't come . They play the masquerade because it's easier to pretend , and it makes it mysterious to play . The Masquerade
Jethro Roissing day was the last night I was sick so I’m going back in my sleep and my baby shower and now my mom and her dog is Alisha and she is so much better I hope you get the baby back to her house she t you have been there and I have a baby I love you so I hope one of them is a very happy Christmas and to see her
Thank Leon Russell for this gem. Karen Carpenter took it up many ,many notches. Almost as if it was written purposefully just for her!! I read somewhere that she did not like the song, and recorded it in one take - clarification please? Say it ain't so. I hope the story is just hype. But she did a damn good job of it.
If I had been Karen's manager, I would have gently steered her into more classic, jazzy, sultry songs like this one. Her voice was already a one-in-a-million, but jazz pieces like this would have permanently kept her voice 'in the basement' (lower range) where she REALLY shined. It takes a lot of talent to sing a song with seemingly smooth, effortless ease the way she does. Yes, a masterpiece.

Love the tickling of the ivory as well as Karen's voice

This song transports me to my New York Hi Rise apartment on a rainy night.

LYRICS
Are we really happy with
This lonely game we play
Looking for the right words to say
Searching but not finding
Understanding anyway
We're lost in this masquerade
Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play
Thoughts of leaving disappear
Each time I see your eyes
And no matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
Why we carry on this way
And we're lost in this masquerade
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play
Thoughts of leaving disappear
Each time I see your eyes
And no matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
Why we carry on this way
And we're lost in this masquerade
We're lost in a masquerade
Thank you;)
Merci 🍀
And we're lost in a masquerade.
I will always miss her!!!!
very very deep lyric song and the music is so gorgeous especially it is boosted by Karen's divine quality of voice!
I think the song in her mind was more broadly about life
Ment memories from my younger days.
que hermosos matices tenia en su voz Karen qepd. me fascinan todas sus canciones lastima que ya no haya grupo con esa calidad interpretativa.gracias.
Still great in 2020
Adoro Carpenters
JAmás habrá una voz tan única y perfecta como la dE KAREN........
thanks for sharing. i like this song very very much !
Impecable voz de Karen,en cada una de sus interpreaciones.
Sensational version of Leon Russell's classic. WHAT VOICE!

UNBELIEVABLE TALENT
Beautiful 👌🙏
I think this song means . It has a mysterious yet beautiful melody to it . They get together , their words go out the window . Another words they try to find the words . But they won't come . They play the masquerade because it's easier to pretend , and it makes it mysterious to play . The Masquerade
Cool song
One of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard... yet the song sounds something like out of James Bond or any spy movie opener.
Amen!
'This Masquerade'
Pure joy
My super favorite
STOP!! Just bow!! What a voice!
Anyone in 2019?
All so true and a warm greetings to you my friend.
Amazing 😭
R.I.P., Karen and Leon, forever.

Russell wrote this for his song-cycle album "Carny". Perhaps his most-recorded piece.

This song's title is " This Masquerade " though I'm not sure.
It is
cool
그녀는 떠났지만 난,그녀를 느낀다.
항상 곁에 있기 때문에...
very mysterious

Voz.
2019?
Nice interpretation, though I still love more the original by Leon Russell
Title is "This Masquerade" (not "The").
Masquerade
Has Anyone Seen The Movie About Her Life?
I Have.
Esta melodia es de Lionel Russel ?
Sí, Arturo. El tema pertenece a Leon Russell, que también creó otra joya grabada por Carpenters: "A Song For You".
@@JorgeGomez-gk2oc Gracias, eso no lo sabia.
Track 15
George who?????
The morning after the night before drinking music..
