  I battled anorexia for 20 years.  It's a tough disease to fight.  Rest in peace sweet Karen

  She was beautiful, multi talented and humble. We lost a good one when we lost her.

  This is my favorite song by the Carpenters! The first time I heard it, it came on the radio. I was walking down the hallway to the living room and I stopped dead in my tracks. I had never heard a voice so pure and beautiful in my life.  Her voice was like silk and honey, and I fell in love with the song and her voice. It has always remained my favorite.

  Close To You is the song that launched Carpenters into super stardom. <br><br>Close To You was written by the late great Burt Bacharach/Hal David.<br><br>Burt Bacharach/Hal David wrote many songs — hundreds for artists like Dionne Warwick. <br><br>Thank you Candy &amp; Shawn &amp; Mel!<br><br>Burt Bacharach/Hal David wrote Close To You &amp; Karen Carpenter…also, Richard is a master arranger of all their songs that he wrote and chose. Both Karen and Richard were the background vocals. They spent months in the studios perfecting their sound:<br><br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pv-b_LjwEsA">https://youtube.com/shorts/pv-b_LjwEsA?si=yx8ZmG63JhOq5MXT</a><br><br>🎶🎼🎵🎤🎸🥁❤🎧🎹🎺🎻❤

  When I was a little kid I thought this song was about my father with “Gold dust in his hair and his eyes of blue” That’s not the right words of the song but it’s what I heard 😂❤❤❤
