I've been listening to the album A Kind Of Hush and I must say that I love the song One More Time. Considering what happened in New Orleans, it takes on an even greater meaning. I bet Karen had never even been to New Orleans or at least spent very little time there and yet manages to convince me she grew up there. It's a simple song that just touches my heart. There's something so magical about Richard's simple arrangements and Karen's intimate vocals that affects me in such a profound way.

I never get tired to say to the others forum members about this hidden gem on this album! It is a very melancolly song, the speciality of Karen....

Like so many of you, I also love this song. The way Karen sings it in that soft tone, almost like talking, just blows me away. Maybe it`s the melancholy (?) that gets to me?? It`s amazing how wonderful Karen was at displaying emotions thru her singing, the way she makes us listeners feel that she has lived and means every word she sings. Wonderful!

Yes this song is one of the better songs off AKOH or one of the ones I like best. Its is a highlight off the record well done and well sung by Karen. I don't love this song as some other Carpenter songs but I do like it quite alot.

"One More Time" is one of my favorite songs from "A Kind Of Hush". It's a beautiful somewhat low-key reading by Karen. It's very dramatic in a laid back sort of way.
*footnote: "Boat To Sail" is my other favorite from AKOH.
