Love Making Love To You was the first song from the collection that I fell in love with. This maybe a stretch but this tune reminds me of Only yesterday. Any thoughts? JIM Hi Jim, welcome to the Carpenters Online. I never thought of it but "Love Making Love to You" is similar to "Only yesterday" in the fact that it's like two songs in one. You have the ballad type verse which works into an upbeat chorus. |

Here's a list of the artists who recorded the Karen unreleased songs before she did:
Love Makin' Love To You - Evie Sands 1975
It's Really You - Tarney/Spencer Band (Australian pop/rock duo) 1978
Jimmy Mack - Martha & The Vandellas 1967
Something's Missing - Can't remember her name but she is an R&B soul singer who wasn't to well known.
I do It For Your Love - Paul Simon (from his famed "Still Crazy After All These Years" album). 1976
I think " Don't Try To Win Me Back Again" is an original and I'm not sure but I think Rod Temperton is a co-writer of this song. You remember Rod Temperton's late 70's disco funk group Heatwave. They had hits with "Boogie Nights", "The Groove Line" and "Always And Forever". I also think "Keep My Lovelight Burning" is original.

"Don't Try And Win Me Back Again" was recorded first by Vickie Sue Robinson--who sang "Turn The Beat Around."
