My SOTD is FOR ALL WE KNOW.
I love the pure tones of Karen's full, rich voice...the delicate piano, the hopeful oboe, the soft strings and the perfectly blended background harmonies.

"For All We Know" is always an excellent choice. It will always have a place in my heart (though it didn't make my top 15) because it is the first selection on the first Carpenters CD that I bought in June 2004 (Singles 69-81). The rich vocals, especially, brought back memories of all their great songs, opened me for dozens of more treasures, and sealed my destiny as a fan.

My song of the day is the dark, bold and soulful "I Can't Make Music" - what a great powerful tune.

My song of the day:
"B'wana She No Home" - upbeat, exciting and alive. I love this song and it's electrifying jazz guitar chords - which are so wonderfully performed by Tony Peluso.

My SOTD is going to be the artistic journey called Another Song. I admit it took awhile for this song to really click with me but once it did there was no turning back. I love this song!

My Song of the Day, today, is the great "When You've Got What It Takes." Oh yeah, I know, it's not a favorite among lots of Carpenters Fans, and it's a "fluff" song insofar as musically, but I do love the lyrics. It's an upbeat, and uplifting song. "...Let it out, let it show, let 'em know INSIDE you've got it - let it shine like a fine tomorrow, and when you do that feelin' comes back to you - what a difference it makes when you've got what it takes, what a difference it makes when you've got it, EVERYDAY..." Yeah, baby! Tim

Yeah, baby! Tim Hi Tim... true "When You've Got What It Takes" may not be one of Carpenters' all-time greats - but as with all Carpenters songs, it's definitely a quality song - performed very well. The lyrics are the best part of the song with it's uplifting message. My song of the day is:
"Tryin' To Get The Feeling Again". This song is very well crafted. It's one of the Carpenters' very best. I especially love Karen's dark and soulful delivery. I also love the power-ballad guitar chords - excellent all the way through. [/center]

Yeah, baby! Tim Tim I like this song it really does have a positive message and is far from a weak number. I have chose it before for my SOTD so today I think I will get an early start and follow your lead and also select it as My SOTD today. Yeah baby indeed! Nice choice Tim

I just made it back from a short road trip and had my double CD compilation of The Carpenters Online Fan's Choice Top 40. What a great listen that was. "Two Sides" is the one song that has really stuck with me - hence it's my song of the day. Karen really gave a great performance in this one - I also like the way she so effectively holds the note at the end. The trio of guitars is also a nice quality of this song.

After being out of town for 3 days I am reading this subject for the first time in a while and am very pleased to see the recent recognition given to "When You've Got What It Takes"- it was high on my top 15 list; I love the positive and optimistic message of the lyrics. Currently I am listening to Voice of the Heart C.D., and "Sailing On The Tide" has jumped out at me as a song that can offer the memory of a quiet place and some serenity amidst the chaos and hectic pace of life, and I nmominate it as my song of the day. It may not often be possible to physically escape to an island or isolated place (though it is good for the body and soul to occasionally do just that) but I can avail peace and calmness wherever I am. And when I do make the run, I can become one of the slow, low key people who will help keep others at peace, too. A more thoughtful analysis of these lyrics is on my long list of Carpenter projects I'd like to pursue.
