  • WOW ! never heard the carpenters do that one ! sounds great ! and who is the guy playing the flute ? he looks familiar. maybe an actor ?

  • I wonder if the Carpenters even knew what jambalaya and/or gumbo were. I mean, they're from Connecticut and Downey, CA for god's sake.

  • loved it..........

  • This has got to be one of the best versions of this beautiful piece of music. Fats Domino does a brilliant version. The Carpenters create a superb masterpiece too with this beautiful fresh piece of music

  • Cudownie:) tak pogodnie:)

  • Comment removed

  • My comment may seem very odd, but I don't care.. amidst all turmoil of things happening in the world since Occupy 15-10-2011 worldwide, I got so excited about my own small steps to contribute that I almost forgot that I am only a human being....and before I join the revolution of consciousness again, I ordered myself some sleep and some relaxation...for which I thank the Carpenters with this song for finally getting me into a mood of rest before taking the next steps for a better world!

  • @sendanor a little odd I feel you're kindred spirit

  • @MrPiter63 You mean my Occupy comment? Well, send me a personal message and maybe we can start some interesting conversations..

  • @sendanor Robert from Poland, a musician &a big fun of the Carpenters, Thom Pace, Simon & Garfunkel , the Tremeloes etc, etc, etc :-) greetings................

  • @sendanor Merry Christmas :)

  • @MrPiter63 And a merry Yule to you, friend!!

  • @sendanor listen for '' Silent Night " Stevie Nicks.... fantabulous :)

  • Den er bedst musik :D

  • shes an angel! i lovehow she moves on 2:17 wow nice song thanks so much!!

  • @grizzzlymx great))) you're observant, I like it too )))

  • Hank Williams didn't write this song. He bought the tune and then rewrote the lyrics.

    I think it was one of the happiest moments of his life and it shows through the song.

  • Its too bad that tool head Hank Williams Jr has to shame the name of is father who wrote this lovely song!

  • I'm 21 and I love this song :)

    Ultimate feelgood factor!

    Bless you Karen, you angel <3

  • memories of more innocent times, takes me back to being about 5yrs old listening to this and others on the radio (remember that) , my kids are older than that now.

    Thank you

  • Lady Gaga is nothing...

  • @VictorWThe1st Don't say that too loud, friend...Lady Gaga CAN actually sing very well, you just have to close your eyes for her outrageous outfits and then listen....she appears to be able to sing especially well on singing in very low volume, also check her lyrics which appear to be of more interest than what you would guess at only watching her. But the most important thing is: value all artists on their own. Mrs Carpenter was also a very gifted singer in her own right.

  • @VictorWThe1st you're absolutely right :)

  • Genius takes its toll. Her brother was sort of brilliant, but Karen took the stress. She was to go to an early grave like Hank the writer of the song. Oh, I wish genius were cheaper for Karen.

  • Najlepsze wykonanie tej piosenki ze wszystkich jakie istnieją. Cudowny głos o jaki trudno dziś..... Szkoda że tacy ludzie jak Karen już odeszli...........

  • best voice ever

  • I love her, she doesn´t belong to this world, she belongs to the universe. She is a presente from God to the universe. We love her.

  • @HorizonteAzul21 That's really beautiful what you said. We really miss Karen.

  • Thumbs up if you think it's awful that my nickname "Jambalaya" or "Laya" was from this song.

  • Homenaje a KAREN

  • lovely

  • Oh. MY! when i was 4/5 years old me and my mom used to listen to the carpenders in the car and this was my favirite one.. So i though i would see if i could find my favorite again, and here you go! I wont ever forget how much i Loved this and still do 10 years later :' )

  • @IsabelNTuni my mum loved carpenters to.

  • Slyšel jsem jich dost,ale tohle je paráda.

  • Carpenters' great arrangement made this song appealing to more audiences beyond rural country.

  • great singing. but what a cheesy arrangement. seriously, not even kcs voice can rescue this travesty. go take a listen to emmylou harris singing this with the hot band.

  • great singing. but what a cheesy arrangement. seriously, not even kcs voice can rescue this travesty.

  • she has no second to compare, her voice is the sweetest. may allah give her courage and joy to live long.

  • I prefer some Carpenters remakes to the originals, but not this one. A little too laid back for my taste. I much prefer one of Jo Stafford's renditions, although not the one that's in all the YouTube videos. Jo did another that's more upbeat at 110 bpm, rather than the slower 98 bpm in the videos or the 97 bpm of this version. The faster tempo makes it a real toe-tapper, much peppier and happier.

  • until now nobody girl, or boy has her voice, simply the best voice i ever heard

  • Awesome song ^__^

    Thanks to Seinfeld, I can't hear "Jambalaya" without giggling -__- ...

  • wow...  her voice is like a diamond.... so sparkly and beautiful..... so sad about her untimely death.....

  • She looks so happy and healthy here. Shame she didn't see her beauty like all her fans do.

  • take all the flair outta a great song. Flute? really?

  • Comment removed

  • she looks so happy

    

  • @Epaca1:

    The Guitar player is named Tony Peluso, just recently passed away.

  • I have to say this is my all time favourite Carpenters song.

  • Marvelous song with CARPENTERS. Listen also : CREEDENCE, NALVA AGUIAR, FATS DOMINO, BRENDA LEE, THE BLUE RIDGE RANGERS and others singing Jambalaya.

  • the guitarrist is Tom Petty ?

  • Whose genius idea was it to cover this classic in such an awful way? One of the most unlistenable concoctions EVER! It's like the Schmenge Bros. (The Happy Wanderers from SCTV) backing up Karen on Hee Haw. Maybe they should have covered "Sympathy for the Devil" or "Stairway to Heaven" for an encore. ..

  • Wonderful!, reminds me of being at the village fete, supping a good old pint of English real ale!.

  • playback!

  • U2 or KC take your pick

    1st kc

    2nd U2

    dont forget corona :')

  • only the Carpenters could sanitize Jambalaya.....i like them and its a great song but this needs some grit to it......check out Emmylou Harris' version.....it kills!

  • @tacobelle1977 I agree that this is not a good video but this is the best musical version that i've seen.

    .

  • is she died?

  • @jerwinrhoy1

    Yeah she died long ago due to having anorexia. Such a short time on earth for such a beautiful voice person like her.

  • spotify:track:3T4zj4ETdJKltPeB­1tnEMk

  • carpenters just gave the song more awesome smooth touch, just like they did to the The Beatles "Ticket to ride" !!

    thats the best way to honor legendary songs.

  • It's hard to improve on the Hank Williams original. Instead I think the Carpenters put their own stamp on it. The pedal steel on it is an nice touch. It's a different arrangement than one might expect of a Hank cover but for me it works. Two enthusiastic thumbs up from me. (OK so I'm still a big Carpenters fan after all these years, so sue me.)

  • Love u, Karen. U make me feel love the life more ! :)

  • imao, this is not how the song can best be sung

  • what year was this video ??

  • siempre se van antes los mejores, que preciosa voz tiene esta chica y que cara, no puedes dejar de escucharla y mirarla

  • Yeah She's dead person RIP

  • recuerdo ml jventud.grasias

    Mais elle vit toujours grace à sa voix...!!

    Faut lire c'est entre guillemet et au second degrés!!!!

  • Fillet Gumbo? It is called File" and it is made from sassafras to thicken a roux. Cajuns Rule!

  • Wonderful, RIP Karen Carpenter- thankful there are songs of yours like this left.

  • Wow! Karen Carpenter was awesome. Too bad she couldn't see herself as lovely and perfect as the rest of us did.

  • @bower4311 fuk u

  • Sweet Karen. I love you. Gone too soon!

  • Isn't this the sweetest voice you have ever heard? Voice of an angel!

  • GAY WILL ALWAYS MEAN:

    1) HAPPY GO LUCKY - CARE FREE - (JIM WAS GAY AT THE PARTY)

    2) OR BRIGHTLY COLORED CLOTHES OR MATERIAL, FANCY (MY, WHAT SOME GAY APPAREL).

    THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS TO IDENTIFY A HOMOSECTIONAL - IF YOU WOULD LIKE I CAN REPOST AND SHOW YA!

    KAREN DONE THIS SONG RATHER WELL, THOUGH SHE WAS A BIT RESERVED - SHE SHOULD HAVE RARED BACK AND LET HER RIP - OTHER THAN THAT SHE DID GOOD - REST IN PEACE, DEAR!

  • gay meant happy back then.....

  • @SweetSesatia - no it most definitely meant homosexual and it still means happy now and as Good As You

  • @Fawkhall No, "gay" meant happy/multicolored. "Queer" was the word used for homosexual. I lived thru that time, that was the usage.

  • @SweetSesatia - and so it does now

  • gay-o

    :D

  • Fun song! & nicely done!

  • That flute player doesn't even need to BLOW to make sounds in his magic pipe. (1:30)
