What's the Carpenters song you are currently humming or can't get out of your mind? All morning long I've had "Iced Tea" stuck in my head. I really enjoy those early jazz instrumentals such as "Caravan" - too bad more of them haven't been released.

The Uninvited Guest -- for several days now!! I thought it was cool that you mentione Iced Tea, though, as I often find my self humming and doing madd vocalizations of that song around the house and while doing chores! I never really listen to that song much -- rpobably been two years, and yet for some reason my brain often goes there when I am otherwise mentally occupied!!

For some inexplicable reason, I am also stuck on The End of the World. Perhaps it is because how low Karen was able to take her voice down at the end of the song--I can't recall she did something like that anywhere else.

TEXTTEXTRainy days and Mondays and superstar are real stickers too. No, not stiNKers stick in my head stickers! For about 2 yrs or more after Karen died, it was too sad for me to listen to any of their music, but in the last few yrs., I guess because I have a computer and have learned more about the Carpenters and bought more of their music..well, they are stuck in my mind. I don't know how Richard could do or can do what he has with their music and his tribute album..looks like it would be oh so sad SAD for him ..they were so great together but, i guess that was good therapy for him. and now he works for a tv station right? How many out there actually went to any of the Carpenters' concerts? I didn't but would have if they had come to my part of the country back then. Saw John Denver in '78. He was also amazing! katt

I listen to their Christmas music year round so this one has a hold of me all the time:
Merry Christmas darling We're apart that's true But I can dream and in my dreams I'm Christmas-ing with you

I love the Carpenters Christmas music. Home for the Holidays is one of my favorites.

Another one that gets stuck in my head is 'If We Try' from Karen's solo album.

I also listen to the Carpenters Christmas music year round. One of my favorites is Santa Claus Is Coming To Town. The longer slow version with the great saxophone solo. sometimes I sing that one for days.

Perhaps it is because how low Karen was able to take her voice down at the end of the song--I can't recall she did something like that anywhere else. Mine is Nowhere Man, for the same reason you tell: the low vocal range at the end of the song(she does three or four descending tones)

Right now it's Sweet Sweet Smile. I've been singing this song all day long. It's such a good feeling upbeat song.

Mine is My Body Keep Changing My Mind which just pushed Nowhere Man and Top Of The world down on my chart. As you mention Frederico, she also uses her deeeeep voice on Nowhere man. I love that song with her young, rough voice. What a talent!!

In the last few days I've had "Baby It's You" keep popping into my brain. Karen's vocal has that real chill factor. Especially when she reaches down into those rich deep tones.
