[> Subject: Re: Sad songs Author: RickHenry [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 19:50:55 03/11/03 Tue I'd say the Carpenters songs which evoke the most emotions for me are: NOW - Karen's reading is so emotional. I listen to the song and the words and it brings feelings to me which just don't stop. TRYIN' TO GET THE FEELING AGAIN - This is one of the best written songs of alltime. Karen's voice is so full of soul AND yearning on this one. THIS MASQUERADE - This is ultimately my favorite Carpenters song. Richard's arrangement is absolutely amazing and Karen's voice contains mystery and deep emotion. I also think EVE is an amazing song.

[> [> Subject: Re: Sad songs Author: Federico Cruz [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 14:37:45 03/12/03 Wed I forgot to mention a last sad song:Nowhere Man. What a painful, dark and melancholic song!!!! Karen gives a really low note at the end of the song. And she was only 17 years old.....

[> Subject: Re: Sad songs Author: BOAT2SAIL [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 19:41:56 03/12/03 Wed I remember hearing Yesterday Once More at a party and a lady who was there broke into tears. She was all embarrassed. She said the Carpenters always make her misty eyed. I think A Place To Hideaway is a very emotional song. I think the lyrics are very powerful. My personal favorite is A Song For You the song is dark and Karen's voice is very soulful. This song always gets me.
