    My God!!!! I have been a fan of the Carpenters since 1998 and only discovered this version in 2020 !!!!!!!!!!!! What a privilege and emotion. This version makes my eyes fill with tears. What a wonderful singer !!!!!!! That's why KAREN is my favorite of all. How much time I wasted without hearing Karen's voice. Forgive me, Barry Manilow, I'm also a fan of yours, but everything Karen sings becomes a precious thing. Karen Carpente's version will be my favorite from now on. Thanks for sharing.

      So many songs, especially Karens make my heart fill with tears, the first songs I remember my mother singing to me back in the 80s are top of the world and end of the world. I only had 4 or 5 songs of their's until I was 33 when I got a compilation.
      You may tear up when you hear this, remembering the tragic way she died.

      Trivia : David Pomeranz wrote this song and it was given to Richard Carpenter. The Carpenters recorded this song first in the mid 70's but for some reason never made it as a cut to any of their earlier albums. Then Barry Manilow recorded it in the late 70's and became one of his signature songs. Richard picked this up and included this song in The Carpenters Essentials Collection which was released in 1989 or 88 long after Karen died. I think Richard made a huge mistake by dropping this song back then, it could have been a charter. And by the way, this is a one take recording. You can still hear Karen turning a page of lyrics in the middle of the song.

    That sheet of paper flipping (1:59) makes me feel like I am there listening to Karen during the recording; this "error" makes the song even more perfect to me. I used to love Barry's version, but when I heard Karen's voice... Oh boy, it became a most on my favorite ones from the C's...

      I don't know why they didn't release it on the kind of Hush album which really was one of their weakest albums. I think it would have been a chart topper, and much better than Barry Manilows version.

    • @j.michaelthomas6704

      GEMINI-G - Word was they thought they already had enough ballads on “Horizon.” Manilo did a great job. But I’m partial to Karen. Her voice is effortless. I still am blown away by facts like “Superstar” was Karen’s first take on the song. Richard thought there was no way to improve on that. And he was right.

    • @neo4822

    You know as a "Boomer" a loving the quality of the songs I grew up with (no comparison to todays so called talent, I feel grateful I had the opportunity to have this especially when back then we didn't have much else to do other than listen to the radio and records. But, my main point is that its amazing how many outtake songs such as this were never released. ABBA also had quite a few. They were incredible songs and had they been released probably would have been chart toppers.

    Tryin' To Get The Feeling Again
    Carpenters
    At any moment he'll be walking through that door
    But he won't find me behind it
    'Cause the feeling is gone and just won't come back any more
    I worked so hard to find it
    I've been up, down, tryin' to get the feeling again
    All around tryin' to get the feeling again
    That one that made me shiver
    Make my knees start to quiver every time he walks in
    I've look high, low, everywhere I possibly can
    But there's just no tryin' to get the feeling again
    It seemed to disappear as fast at it came
    (*) Read every book, looked, for every meditation and poem
    Just to bring home that old sweet sensation
    But it ain't no use to me to try to get the feeling again
    When did it leave me
    How did I come to miss use such a beautiful bonnet
    But baby believe me, I've done everything I can do
    But somehow it's no returnin'
    I've been up, down, tryin' to get the feeling again
    Like a bloodhound searching for a long lost friend
    Could you help me rediscover
    The way to re-be his lover once again
    Repeat (*)
    I want to get that feeling again
    Eu Quero Ter Essa Sensação de Novo
    A qualquer momento ele vai estar entrando por aquela porta
    Mas não vai me encontrar atrás dela
    Pois o sentimento se foi e simplesmente não quer voltar mais
    Eu me esforcei tanto pra encontrá-lo
    Já fiquei pra cima, pra baixo, tentando recuperar o sentimento
    Por todo lado, tentando recuperar o sentimento
    Aquele que me fazia tremer
    Fazia meus joelhos começarem a fraquejar toda vez que ele chegava
    Eu procurei em cima, em baixo, em todo lugar que eu pude
    Mas não tem jeito de recuperar o sentimento
    Parece que ele desaparceu tão rápido quanto veio
    (*)Li cada livro, procurei, em cada meditação e poema
    Só para trazer para casa aquela velha e doce sensação
    Mas pra mim não adianta tentar recuperar o sentimento
    Quando é que me deixou?
    Como eu pude descuidar de tão bela chama
    Mas meu bem, acredite, tenho feito tudo que posso
    Mas por alguma razão não está retornando
    Já fiquei pra cima, pra baixo, tentando recuperar o sentimento
    Como um cão farejador procurando por um amigo perdido a muito
    Você poderia me ajudar a redescobrir
    Um jeito de voltar a ser a amante dele outra vez?
    Repete (*)
    Eu quero ter essa sensação de novo

    My personal Carpenters chronology - or how I learned to love them through their albums in a time before internet, by endless searching in used record shops:
    Interpretations - Nov 1994
    A Kind of Hush - Nov 1994
    Christmas Portrait - Dec 1994
    Horizon - Dec 1994
    Close To You - Feb 1995
    If I Were a Carpenter - Aug 1995
    Now And Then - Sep 1995
    Carpenters - Sep 1995
    A Song For You - Sep 1995
    Lovelines - Nov 1996
    Ticket to Ride - Dec 1996
    Passage - Dec 1996
    Voice of the Heart - Apr 1999
    Made in America - 2002
    Even though I'm a big fan of 45s, I think the only Carpenters single I ever came across (and own) was Touch me when we're dancing
    How about you all? What was your entry point to the Carpenters?

    Hi Ned, Lovely Video. What software was it made in?
    This song brings memories from 2016 when I was madly in love for the second time in my life

    This song was also recorded by The Stanky Brown Group for Arista Records, before Barry recorded it and I believe before the Carpenters recorded it. Clive Davis never released it. If you search UA-cam for the Stanky Brown version you can find it.
