Hi!
Last night i downloaded parts of I need to be in love karaoke video. It was great!! Only got half of it but I really liked it. It is from a concert and the quality was quite good. The song is sung live with the lyrics on the bottom of hte screen. Have you seen it. Go and get it from Kazaa etc! Karen looked and sounded fantastic!!

I have I Need To Be In Love in my waiting to be downloaded, but haven't received any of it. I do have the karoake videos for Love Is Surrender (which is somewhat artsy with double imaging of K&R's faces). I also have Yesterday Once More and part of I Won't Last A Day Without You. There is also one for Jambalaya.
I wonder if these videos are available anywhere for purchase.

Hi!
I also have the Yesterday Once More video, very nice! think it`s great when they show Karen onstage. But Yesterday has the original album cut, not the live version. That`s what I like about I need... because it is a live recordin and I have never heard Karen perform it live. I downloaded one Jambalaya but it was a cheezy one where they just showed some filming from a city and the sound was not Carpenters either.

I have a live in concert recroding of I NEED TO BE IN LOVE. Karen's performance of the song is flawless. She hits every note right on.

A few years ago 20 karaoke songs in video were issued in a 2-volume set on vcd in Singapore. This set was then reissued in DVD in 1 disc later. While both formats appear to have gone out of print, they are easily found in various places (e.g., ebay). Many of the videos are unique to this issue (not found on any of the other officially issued tapes or DVDs).
The quality of the DVD is somewhat better, though still below par. But if you love Karen, this is better than nothing.

Thank you Karenforever for the infomation. Is there a name for the collection, and is the DVD compatible with U.S. players?

Hi Boat2Sail: The DVD is entitled A Video Biography. It is region code free, so it can be played anywhere.
BTW, if you like karaoke Carpenters songs, have you checked out the master karaoke cds issued in Japan? These are remixed by RC himself of regular Carpenters songs but with Karen's vocal track removed. Listening to these Karenless Carpenters songs gives one an entirely new perspective of RC's arrangements.

I just ordered a copy of the video biography from ebay. Can hardly wait to get it. I'm paying only $13.99 including shipping and handling.
