Here's a possibly fun idea. Hopefully you'll all take part.
This is one for the regulars on the forum who really know each other.
Which Carpenters song makes you think of each Carpenters Online Forum member.
Here's a list of the most currently active members: Beth Smoothie Dave Enigma Cam Tim (YesterdayOnceMore) Ken (Carps1000) Moe Roland Beaner Ming Rick Henry
If I forgot your name please just add your name to the list. And please be nice - especially you Ken!

it is a good topic...one for thought...but at least for you Rick, I think of the song Road Ode as far as one of your favorites, but mostly, I think of the more upbeat songs cuz I think you're on Top of the World quite a bit and the song Only yest. .I gotta think more...

Hey Everyone Greetings from Beautiful San Diego California. Man - it's beautiful here - about 73 degrees, breeze off the bay, no humidity. This is a great thread, and one I'll definitely get back to when I get home. That won't be until the weekend, so everyone take good care, and I'll post over the weekend. Enigma - reprise?? How funny you are! Best to all, Tim

Okay here I am back for a real post...
Here are my songs for each...
Beth - "Only Yesterday"
Smoothie - "Sweet Sweet Smile"
Dave - "Calling Occupants" - no explanation needed here...
Enigma - This Masquerade" - this song is dark and mysterious like an enigma.
Cam - "Crescent Noon" - to Cam... because you mention this song a lot. I think of the word "pathos" when I hear this song. It's a word you've used to describe it.
Tim (YesterdayOnceMore) - What other than "Yesterday Once More". I was going to say "Leave Yesterday Behind" just to be different. But really it's YOM all the way.
Ken (Carps1000) - "Goofus" - gotta go with the majority here. You are the one and only Ken.
Moe - "Honolulu city Lights" - Moe you seem like you're most likely a down to earth easy going mellow guy. "Honolulu City Lights" in my mind represents that feeling in song.
Roland - "Superstar" - this is a deep and serious song. Roland you seem to me to be very serious in what you do. You seem to be a thinker and an artist.
Mary Ann (Beaner) - "The Rainbow Connection". At first I thought "And When He Smiles" but opted for "Rainbow Connection". This song reminds me of Mary Ann when I hear it. I think of Mary Ann as being a person who has dreams and aspirations. She's creative and has vision.
Ming - "Look At Me I'm Sandra Dee" - this is a song Ming has been wanting me to send him through email. And I will finally do it. Jim - "Karen/ Ella Medley"
Rob - "Sometimes" - I dedicate this song to you...
Mariah - "I Won't Last A Day Without You"
Rick Henry - "Leave Yesterday Behind"
A few thoughts on some of the songs you chose for me Smoothie chose "Road Ode" and Enigma chose "Desperado". I found these two choices to be interesting. They're both dark tunes. They're both lonely mournful songs. In a way I can relate to both songs. sometimes I feel like a desperado on a lonely road.
But then Enigma choses "We've Only Just Begun" and Beth "When You've Got What It Takes". Both songs are optimistic. I consider this a compliment that you both associate these songs with me.
Then there's Mary Ann's choice of "Dancing In The Street". Of all those songs this is the one I think describes me best most of the time.

It was me who matched you with *Desperado*..., I know you like that song a lot.
..., and yes, I work very hard in my studio..., but, since yesterday, a big problem came in..., I have a little hum/hiss that *suddenly appeared* in my main guitar track and I just can't remove it unless I make a huge change in the projet settings..., I can't do that.
So, now it's *live with the hum/hiss or start the song from the start*..., a year and a half of hard work down the drain.

Thanks man
People hearing what I do? That's what I want the most in life..., that's why I work hard everyday. I want to totally blow my head off with my music, that's why I'm so perfectionnist..., a bad luck like what I have at the moment is shredding me apart. We'll see what happens in the near future.
Thanks for your concern, Enigma. [glow=red,2,300][/glow][shadow=red,left,300] [/shadow][shadow=red,left,300]Roland Chayer[/shadow][shadow=red,left,300] [/shadow]

Rick, I had you picked right away for which song so I'm glad you feel that way too. By the way, thanks so much for the kind words and your pick(s) for me. I really like both songs a lot and both fit me great. Even though the one song is "And When HE Smiles", people say that I always have a smile on my face so thanks!!

This one is hard. I am still working on a list, but all I have is :
Rick- Boat to Sail (laid back, go where life takes you)
Cam- We've Only Just Begun (a positive outlook on life and always looking toward the future and enjoying the present)
Mariah- Love Me for What I am (you know who you are and other people need to come accept it and love the person you are)
Smootie- Top of the World (you just seem like a happy and positive person)
I'll keep working on the list...
