Sorry, I didn't add I BELIEVE YOU or BEECHWOOD 4-5789. Didn't have enough room, and think these are the weakest songs on this collection.

Tough call but I still went with Touch Me When We're Dancing. Its sad for me to listen to this song as it was the last hit The Carpenters had in America but I still love the song to this day.

I almost, almost chose WHEN IT'S GONE...as it reminds me so much of SOLITAIRE, and I 'adore' Solitaire.
So I went with SOMEBODY'S BEEN LYIN. I think Karen's vocal showcases extreme vulnerablity in her sensitive reading. She really knew how to portion her vocals to fit this song, using an aching part on her (vocal) pallate to add to the overall Masterpiece...

I voted for "Strength of a Woman." I think it is a classic Carpenters' song with Karen's lower register being used. I also like the extra voices that the backup singers bring to the song. I have stated it before, but I think this could have been a strong follow up to "Touch me" and could have given them another top 40 hit.

"Strength of a Woman" I love Karen's performance.I especially like the lines"sometime it takes the strength of a woman to understand the weakness of her man"K aren's voice is very beautiful.

??! ??! ??! Strength Of A Woman - love this tune - Karen's voice is exceptional, and I just have always liked the melody. I'm especially fond of the bridge. Gets my vote. Tim

Strength of a Woman is my favorite. I really like Karen's voice she sings it well. Because We Are In Love is my least favorite.
