  • Exquisite vocal timbre. If that's what made Karen so irresistible to us old people back in the day, well, I think yours is like a gift from heaven. Maybe I wanted you to slow it down and drown me in the sorrow, but you definitely get my singer of the week award. I've never heard you before, but I'll listen every time you come out with another symphony for the senses. You make beautiful music.

  • A wonderful cover. As has been said you have the unique female vocal range that Karen had. You are both an outstanding singer and a very solid player too. It makes me happy that younger people seek out talented singers and writers from the past and bring them forward. Thanks for the video!

  • its so beautiful! Great Cover! Thank you so much.

  • What a beautiful voice! you timing is great too, keep up the good work!

  • Yeah, she's good. Good voice.

  • Can you do "Rainy Days and Mondays"?

  • very good especially when you make those low parts of the song , most people would have struggled . karen had such a unique vocal range that is very difficult to replicate good job . i do think you will sing much better if you don't play and sing at the same time .

  • increible! that sounds awesome, nice voice...

  • My god you incredible Karens Ghost good band name huh? you are also charming and lovely

  • My god you incredible Karens Ghost good band name huh?

  • Great vocals!

  • Great performance!! I tried to play along but your gutar is tuned in a different way! And it's so hard to find correct chords for this great song!

  • Very nice signing - best wishes from England :)

    Mark

  • fantastic!!!!!!!i love you:-))

  • nice

  • Stellar!

  • As great as that was...try slowing the tempo and see what you get. I think you'll be pleased!!!!

  • Great voice, good intonation but I think you've forgot the guitar solo. It will complete your great job.

  • A good voice. Great control. I'd like to hear her voice without her playing the guitar, which looks and sounds like a distraction to her biggest talent. Look, I know: I can't chew gum and tie my shoes at the same time..... Nobody will ever beat Tony Peluso's fuzz solos!

  • A good voice. Great control. I'd like to hear her voice without her playing the guitar, which looks and sounds like a distraction to her biggest talent. Look, I know: I can't chew gum and tie my shoes at the same time.....

  • Very good, you are a real talent

  • Nicely done! Also, that is some sexy hair! SexaY!

  • A beautiful, pure voice.  Nice job!

  • I am one of the biggest Karen Carpenter fans and I have to say that, in this song, your lower range is very similar to Karen's......God bless.......great job!

  • This is really good. The only criticism is that you make the song really upbeat when it's almost cried by Karen. For me, it's about saying goodbye to the capability of love, but when you sing it, it's like you're liberated :). It's an interesting way to sing it and I like it, but it just was different to me is all (since I'm used to being sad when I listen to the original). Great vocals and mad guitar skills though!!

  • you are great !!!!

  • Excellent wish i was half as good, What are the chords used i'm learning to play but am struggling to work out what you are playing and i dont know the names well enought yet :) please x

  • what a good fuckin job! too bad you couldn't hook up with her brother and play some stuff. With my eyes closed, you really have that magical sound in your voice. voila!

  • well done lady, very strong clear vocals, would'nt like to be on the end of an ear bashing from you, lol! would you consider covering sheryl crow, " if it makes you happy " ? your voice has got the arse to pull it off, gud luck

  • i love your voice so much!

  • very well done! i loved every single second of it! as a the carpenters fan, i enjoyed it a lot and found it worth of listening.

    thx for this!

  •  Beautifully done. Thank you for posting!!

  • I love your voice, it's just greatly great!!!

  • Every time I've heard someone sing a Carpenter song it;s made me sick,but there's one thing I have to say to you -Good Job!

  • I never thought there would be someone who could sound so remarkably close to Karen Carpenter, well done, you have a brilliant voice and wish you well, please market yourself as you have talent without doubt.

    Cheers

  • A Lovely song sung to perfection by you CorinneLucy.

  • Nice voice; reminds of Carpenter

  • how do you manage to sing the line time and time again the chance etc etc in one breath..???

    amazing

  • @TheBobsmusic1 I have gills on my back that actually let me breathe and sing continuously. I don't do that very often, though, because it freaks people out. Also the gills make this flapping noise and sometimes the mic picks it up.

  • @CorinneLucy Thought so....a real live mermaid...that explains it all.

    I thought you were a myth..

  • @CorinneLucy Your gills are so awesome *u* lol

    But seriously love your voice O_O

  • Three yesses you are through to the next round..

    Britain HAS got talent after all..

    Absolutely beautiful.

  • Hi CorrineLucy, Please can you tell me the chords you were using, I can't really tell as I haven't played for a long time, nice song by the way.

  • you have a nice vocal but you cannot express song's emotion well.

  • I love all her works. but her cover of Neal youngs (Man needs a maid) just blows me away. what ever you do don't pull that tube. Bet half the hits on it are from me. by the way do you do windows HAHA playing keep up the grate work.

  • over my expectation xD

    however it's a little too fast

  • awesome just awesome

  • Wow! excellent job.

  • You should be VERY famous Corinne!! I've just watched a few of your videos and they're all brilliant. I wasn't sure about trying Karen Carpenter, but this really does show that you have a fantastic voice and if you can sing her songs you can sing anything. Good luck with your music :-)

  • Awesome!!!! From someone who saw Karen in concert....you did a GREAT job here!!!!

  • As others have said, your voice is very similar to Karens!

    Wonderful rendition, but like someone else mentioned, lose the guitar, bring someone in who can play the solo parts, and I'm sure Mr Cowell if he has any sense would say....."It's a yes from me"!

  • Great!

  • Wow! I was just blown out of my chair! That was an incredible cover and a wonderful tribute to a fantastic song. This gets a favorite and you get a subscribe. 

    Thanx,

    JV

  • You sound just like her!!!

  • omg! amazing

  • HOLY COW YOU SOND JUST LIKE HER

  • all the angels in heaven should take singing lessons from you

  • Nice voice, I would like to hear another song by Corinne.

    First time I hear GtL without the solos.

    It confirmed my idea that the singing part is just a vehicle to reach what it really matters: Tony Peluso´s guitar solos.

    Without them is just another middle of the road cheesy little song.

  • UNBELEIVABLE ! My daughter is 12 and she needed to learn this song for school and I was searching for someone with a good rendition and you are fantastic ! Your vocals are a classic sound which is a rare find.......whew ! I will be following you with my kids on this thing and hope to see more of your songs and certainly hope that you cut into maintream....we enjoyed it...Thanks for sharing !

  • Your voice is beautiful! I agree with earlier comment. Drop the guitar, find someone who can play the piano. Slow down a little (you sound slightly nervous or rushed) and I guarantee you could find fame & fortune in the USA.

  • @pea0411 Sadly, I think music is dead in the USA -- but if it weren't, Corinne, you'd rock the charts! I'm hoping to do a cover of this with my band soon though, and I wish I had your voice. You really do sound a lot like Karen...

    By the way, thanks for putting up your singing tips. Those were to someone else, but I'll definitely keep them in mind as I practice. Best to you!

  • Lovely!

  • Wow, really gorgeous rendition...

  • u sound just like Karen.

  • Excellent!

  • I think I'm in love

  • Karen sang it with soul...

  • You have a real opportunity ... America is badly in need of something decent and wholesome again... you have the closest tonal quality to Karen that I have heard to date. Dump the Guitar, get a band and do nothing but Carpenters. I believe that you could make a good living for yourself not to mention bringing back the last remnant of decency that existed before America went to hell. I you are not from America, I do not think you would have any problem coming here with your voice.

  • I agree with everything here,but why should she dump the guitar? We need a frontwoman who can actually add something MUSICAL,and not just shake her arse between vocal phrases,you know?

  • For one, she can not play guitar and two, Karen never "shook her arse".

  • What an amazing voice. Love it.

  • So very sweeet & wonderful!!!:)) Thx 4 posting.

  • WOW! What a great voice! Usually, when you watch someone's cover, it's, lets just be polite and call it "weak", especially when folks try their hands at a classic song or incredible artist. KC was simply amazing. AND YOU DID HER PROUD!!!

  • You should say hello to love, because a lot of people out here love you! You are undoubtedly one of the most talented vocalists I have ever heard.

  • weeeeeeeee......nice nice nice^^..................that's all i can say...buy very g00d...y0u have chosen a g00d song of Ms. Karen Carpenter^^...nc Cover...

  • Great voice! Loved this version! Thanks for posting.

  • GREAT VOICE,

  • I like your performance...... keep on and sing more good songs to share.

  • Beautiful in every way. Thanks for sharing.

  • Very pretty voice. Slow down. This is not the Kentucky Derby. You have the talent, just slow down and make them feel your heart in each note, and watch what happens. Joe

  • OMG! This is an incredible cover

    Your voice is beautiful

    i love it!!

  • good voice my friend but dont too fast.

  • Very well done, Corinne! No major complaints, just a bit rushed feeling..? You sure do have a beautiful voice.

  • BEAUTIFUL though i didnt like the speed at all, ur voice is gorgeous.

  • Hey great version.. much better without the solos - its a great acoustic song!! :-)

    Do you have the chords you play for it???... the version on the web are not good!

  • very well done awesome, im a carpenters fan for real and sing there songs,keep singing these your really good xxI love it Lisab...

  • Really beautiful voice !!!

  • That was perfection. (I belong to the camp that thinks that guitar solo is stupid.) You have a lovely voice and what appears to be a lovely personality as well. I wish you great success.

  • It is so difficult to cover a Carpenters song and do it justice, but you certainly nailed it.

    Thanks for sharing.

  • Very good Lucy.................you have quite a hint of Karen in the quality of your voice.

    Thanks

  • Great vocals and your guitar sounds really good!  Now, this next part is not a criticism, just an observation: For me, "Goodbye To Love" is just not the same without the hot guitar solos.

  • I completely agree, I wish I could have played them!

  • @CorinneLucy - You don't need the Guitar Solo - your Performance stands alone - it is a Testament to not only to the great Karen Carpenter and this song, but to you - you're AMAZING! This is a beautiful and haunting song! Not too many people can pull this song off.

  • i loved it loved it loved it loved it so much. beautiful voice. thank you. best of luck to you.

  • Excellent. There's a touch of Karen in your voice. That can only be a good thing.

  • Wow. Nice one. Peace out.

  • Bloody good cover, really enjoyed that Corinne.

    Whats yr number one singing tip?

  • Probably just to practise, especially songs by people who's singing style you really love - that way if you end up copying them at least you'll get a sound you'll like! And scales of course, can't forget the scales...

  • You've got a brilliant voice. Keep it up!

  • Do n't agree with the last comment - very well sung

  • slow down....think about the lyrics...you have a nice voice but it is lost here.....

  • Comment removed

  • very nice! and I love the Carpenters especially Karen obviously and the texture of your voice is perfect for these songs and there was a moment or two, I genuinely felt an uncanny resemblance in your sound in comparison to hers, and I know her voice as if I knew my own voice.

    Maybe hers better. But anyway, great job!

    and you have a lovely personality. and now I wonder if English girls are very different from American girls and especialy different from New York girls.

  • Corinne, you have a lovely voice - a really really lovely voice - and that is a great cover of a track I adore. Loved it, really really loved it.

  • Absolutely fantastic. It flows so easy in your voice !! I watched many times until to be satisfied. Thank you so much. Guilherme (BRZ)

  • V.V.Good. Edit Paluso in there and I'll buy it.

    Well done.

  • folks like you have karen sittin on the star looking down saying keep pushing young girl--you're talking to your'self as she must have had in a sad way---i speak with her each monday to check on rain and whether it's raining or not---i make her laugh--cause i am-- as she-- some kinda lonely clown jaybird

  • Estupendo, me gustó mucho.

  • J'adore. ( Une petite française parmi tout ces Anglais.. )

    Tu as une très belle voix = " Beautiful Voice " =)

    Je suis FAN =)

    Byyye.

  • Blamp!

  • Well, blamp right back atcha buddy.

  • Very good voice, you sound hauntingly like Karen herself! But part of what makes this song so amazing is the subtle and beautiful chord progression Richard Carpenter wrote. They way you are playing it is greatly simplified. If it's actually written that way in any book of sheet music I'd say get your money back. But man, your voice is killin'.

  • My Karen's fave song. Nice acoustic version.. thanks CorinneLucy!

  • Great cover, nice job.

  • I was searching for this video a couple of months ago and couldn't find it, I was trying every possible search tag to try and find it...but now i know why, thanks for reposting this one. It's by far the best cover of this song. Loves it!

    Didn't you also have a guitar tutorial for this song as well?...or am i mistaken for someone else. If it was you, I would love to see that video posted again. Thanks!

  • I had just watched a couple of the Carpernter's versions and quite honestly expected to hate yours. Surprise....your guitar sounds great and your voice sounds even better! Good job!

  • great cover, im in love

  • wow...beautiful voice...kudos!!

  • Eu amei isso aqui , te adorei querida , felicidades e parabens heeeeeee I love youuuuuuu haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • Beautifully done! Love a person who can sing and play instrument simultaneously. Bravo!

  • un poco rapido

  • beautiful!!!!

  • This is the best Karen Carpenter cover I've heard. Very well done, Corinne! I've listened to it 5 times already! I really hope you make it as I'd love to see you perform.

  • You are very talented, one of the best renditions I've seen yet of this song! Your guitar playing is terrific too!

  • Excellent performance! Thanks for posting.

  • great job :)

  • What the fuck it has to do with Katie Melua

  • Hi Corinne: Beautiful... and thank you! I had the cassette tape of this when i was young and i played it in my car over and over and over again... that was very nicely done and brought back great memories. Paul

  • Cool! I remember your previous version but I think this one is even better. It sounds great with a fast tempo... I honestly wish someone would do a great rehashing of it if only to get it on the airwaves - it's too good of a song to be vaguely remembered the way it has been.

  • Wonderful Lucy,

    Your voice is so suited to the songs by the Carpenters.

    This is a great performance

    Thank you

    PAUL

  • wonderful!
