Hi Everyone, I have always been captivated by this gorgeous song. THe beginning of Richard playing the piano is gorgeous. Then Karen's voice comes on with a lush vocal...a wonderful song. I must admit, I am not a Beatles fan at all, but I always loved the Carpenters versions of their songs that Richard and Karen recorded(Can't Buy Me Love, Baby It's You, Help, Ticket To Ride, Nowhere Man, Goodnight). The background vocals are wonderfull too. Everything in it's right place. A wonderful heartbreaking storyline. Her voice seemed so well suited to singing sad, painful songs. I love the ending of "Don't care..."with the fadeout of "Think I'm going be sad!" I have always loved the newer version she re-recorded the lead vocal in 1973...just a touch classier I think.
My thoughts, Cameron

I prefer the 1973 rerecording also. Karen's voice is more refined and Richard's music is better.
