Hey I was searching the net for Carpenters video clips, and I found an old link (been removed recently) of Karen singing "Top Of The World" LIVE in October 1981 on a French TV show called "Numero Un"...surely this would have been one of the last (if not THE last) time she performed on TV.....it would be especially great to see her sing LIVE during this time period 'coz all the clips I have from the "Made In America" promo-tour are lip-synched. Does anyone have it? Cheers, Leo

Hi, Just incase you haven't seen this clip - I found it this afternoon on Roadode.com. It's a really good quality performance of Top Of The World with Karen singing an excellent live lead vocal along with the studio recording. CHECK IT OUT! Karen does not look well sadly, but as I said before - I think live vocals from that late stage of her career are rare, so for me it's a really exciting find! Leo

Yes, Thanks, Leo. I had not seen this before, and I enjoyed watching it, even though it is so difficult for me to watch Karen at this point in her life. I have to agree with Richard when he says there is definitely something missing in her eyes. The sparkle is gone. Nevertheless, it looks as if she was enjoying herself to the extent possible, and her voice doesn't waver - she sings right on the button. Nice find. Thanks much for sharing with us. Tim
