I find some meaning in the fact that Karen died in early February- for me the heart of winter, and was born in early March, a time associated with the first signs of the coming (slow though it may be) of spring, a time to celebrate anew reawakening and life and the start again of a cycle of life and opportunity. And life is surely more energized, and vision more focused, through the gift she gave to us. Happy birthday! (My SweeXXXXXer calendar, if I recall, noted several other musicians with the same birthday and I will issue a report on who they are.)

Happy Birthday Dear Karen - and thank you for all the wonderful melodies you have sung to me day after lovely, beautiful day. Happy Birthday Dear Karen - and thank you for the beauty that resounds in your voice in every single note you sang, so incredibly. Happy Birthday Dear Karen - and thank you for providing the other 1/2 of a great duo - Carpenters. So many memories for me regarding Carpenters, and your incomparable music. Happy Birthday Dear Karen, and thank you for the laughter and the fun and for the wild and kooky side of you that we got to be a part of, and continue to enjoy through the magic of media. Happy Birthday Dear Karen, and thank you for the absolute magic of your ability at the "tubs" - your drums. Such a talented drummer. I never tire of hearing your amazing drumming contributions - and to watch you pull it off with, seemingly, such ease and panache! So many reasons to thank you, but today, just know that you are quite FONDLY remembered for all of the wonderful things you did while here on this earth, as well as those things you continue to do to this day. The music will NEVER die - it will go on for generations and generations. Every day new ears hear the beauty that is....Karen Carpenter. Happy Birthday, Karen. Tim  |

Wonderful tributes to Karen given here. Today is also the birthdate of Lou Reed, Larry Carlton and Jon Bon Jovi. I'm not familiar with these people but I am sure they have encouraged people; I can't imagine an artist more inspirational than Karen, though.
