Break makes me think of Karen and Richard as the late 70's approached they both really needed to take an extended break from their careers to rejuvenate. Richard did take a break in 1979 as Karen continued working and recorded her wonderful solo album.

Attention good one Rick! One reference to attention is Your Wonderful Parade off of Offering "Lady's and Gentlemen may I direct your attention to the center ring..." Also I think of when the Carpenters first burst on the scene how Richard was not entirely OK with all the attention Karen got and how some people referred to him as the keyboardist in Karens band of couse he would later accept this more but at first it did bother him.
My word is Echoe (sp?)

Single makes me think of Karen and Richard being single during their halcyon days. Hence from that came classic songs like "Goodbye To Love" and "I Need To Be In Love". Next Word: HOLLYWOOD

Hollywood makes me think of the first time I went to California in 1984 and saw the famous "Hollywood" sign and also when I went to see the Carpenters star on the Walk of Fame.

Thanksgiving makes me think of the 1989 movie "The Karen Carpenter Story" when the family is at the table celebrating Thanksgiving and everyone is serving themselves and mom (or was it dad) asks Karen aren't you going to eat, and Karen starts serving food on her plate. Dad Carpenter says a prayer for blessings and mentions how he's happy to have his daughter back home.

*# Carry makes me think of a picture of karen being carried by a guy in a Frankenstein outfit. It was taken in 1973 during a charity softball game. Karen is wearing her red cap.

I think of the word giggle and relate it to how Karen seems to be the one overall to be more light hearted than Richard and more apt to giggle than he is. I also think of that picture of her in her underwear (oh, Gasp,...that controversial picture which Rick posted a few months ago, and not many liked it) She seems to be giggling in that picture. I haven't contributed in a long while on this thread, so maybe no one has used it yet... from a song...GRAY i also just wanted to add that I also had the same thoughts on the Thanksgiving clue...Rick...In the movie, I think Karen has returned from being in the hospital, and she's with her folks...she really tries to please them by getting some turkey...She does eat some.. I think...

A couple of things come to mind with the word "Gray:" I think of the "Close to You" album cover that has a gray border to the picture of Karen and Richard at the beach. Gray is also the day that Karen died. It was a gray day when she passed. We even got snow that afternoon...in Oklahoma of all places!

Inspiration makes me think of Karen's voice. Her voice has inspired many to sing. She has the most perfect voice of anyone I've ever heard. I also think of Ave Maria Karen's performance of that song is inspiring.
next word... Sudden

Sadly, I have to say that the word "sudden" makes me think of Karen's sudden and untimely death. Merry Christmas, Karen! Sing with the Angels next word: stones
