Knowing When To Leave - The Carpenters (Klara Tavakoli)

[TheFinch61]

god when does she breath

[klaratava]

@TheFinch61 Indeed. So in love with her voice and always wish she were still with us... just imagine seeing her perform live! I would have loved to hear her voice, singing in person.

[Inmaculada1401]

Oh yes, saber cuando darse el bote, lo más inteligente.

[ElohimIsYahweh]

1:30 this is so not cool.

[klaratava]

@ElohimIsYahweh Agreed, not cool at all! Poor Grace.

[1LHPrincess]

@ElohimIsYahweh I guess she should have left

[Doowopper45]

I love this incredibly spare arangement of musicians. Disappointed with Chenowich's interpretation. Not nearly as good as Jill Hayworth in the 60's/

[tlw1950]

What Carpenters' album is this track on? Please help me.....

[klaratava]

@tlw1950 Hi! It's actually a Burt Bacharach song and it's part of a medley The Carpenters recorded, not sure which album it's from... but on 'The Essential Collection' I have from iTunes, it's called '1980 Medley'.

[tlw1950]

@klaratava Hi! Thanks! I know the song is from Promises, Promises, but I have to find the Carpenters' version. I'll look up The Essential Collection on CD! Gracias otra vez!

[pinto91101]

I wish they had released this as a single. It's the best version of this song I've ever heard.

[klaratava]

@pinto91101 I love it too, great version of a great song!

[SwingAge22]

Really cool.....love this song and Karen Carpenter. I go way back with both....and your video is right on point. Very creative, nice work!

[klaratava]

@SwingAge22 Thank you for your comment & glad you enjoyed it :)

[jonnykk2]

This is really clever,just love your choices of video to compliment the song,Diana was a princess and an angel,and Karen of course was an angel who happened to possess just about the most heavenly sounding voice in the universe,reckon they would have really got on together if they had met up,both beautiful genuine... mis- understood souls,in our hearts forever.... thank you.

[klaratava]

@jonnykk2 Thank you :) I'm glad you liked the interpretation and I completely agree about Karen Carpenter - and I thought Diana's story just seemed liked a good (and sad) fit for the song.

[cheekychickenhead]

Wonderfully put together footage goes so well with the song. I love Karen Carpenters voice she truely was a superstar.

[klaratava]

@cheekychickenhead Glad you liked it, thank you! And definitely agree about Karen, there is no other voice like hers.

[bratattack5]

Love this song and really enjoyed your choice of visuals for it too. 10/10

Happy that others appreciate this cool song - & version of it! I, too, love Karen, The Carpenters & Bacharach - such a great combo :)

[USColdplayFan]

yeah I love this version! The Carpenters rock! Just sorry I couldn't discover them until after Karen's passing (but I am only 29 years old)

[LadyPenny6]

Thanks for posting this rare version of yet another miraculous Bacharach & David song.

[gjbap]

J Dilla is one of the greatest hip hop producers ever lived. Check out 'Happiness' by Slum Village, where he uses The Carpenter sample. Also check out J Dilla, may not be your cup of tea, but the guys a genius with an amazing musical ear. Enjoy.
