Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber have nothing on this women. This is true singing from the heart. She didn't have to throw her voice around, She's not Auto tuned. And best yet, her heart was in it. Miss ya Karen. Your a true diva in every sense of the word..
I love the picture of her at 3:15 her hair is so beautiful, she always had such a great hairstyle, so timeless and classic, love the soft bouncy curls! She was such a beautiful person inside and out. LOVE YOU KAREN! :)
In Karen's KIQQ interview, she says of this song, "We used that on the last Christmas special," and it does indeed sound showtune-y (but wasn't on that ABC broadcast). Does that mean it was taped and put in the vault, like the never-seen "Pocahontas" skit from the 1976 special? If so, how cool would THAT be to see? I wish Richard would team up with ABC or PBS to create a compilation clip Christmas special, maybe with the Perry Como videos too.
Christmas is Christmas with Karen and Richard Carpenter. just a sound and voice that is so simple. true and honest. please snow all over the world. everywhere for their gifts. to Karen's memory. Blessed in snow.
me and my mom always listen to the carpenters christmas cd around chrismas!!especially when we aare making christmas cookie! Always puts us in the cheery christmas spirit!!
i love carpenters. i wish karen was still around, singing christmas song live on tv. i love her voice and esp. when xmas is coming soon and i'm so in xmas's mood now, it's a pity it's all recording we are hearing but it's better than nothing. RIP Karen!
Thank you so much for posting this! One of my favorite Carpenter medleys and it's not on the CD version of their wonderful A Christmas Portrait album. Thanks again. Peace.
They released the original entire "Christmas Portrait" album on CD. It's a 2-CD edition that includes their two Christmas albums in their entirety. You definitely need to put your hands on this, if only for this truly amazing medley !
LoveHowardBanister: Is this from their Christmas special? "CAPI" loved our 1st substantial snowfall of the season. How he rolled in the snow & later burrowed thru' & rested in the snow like a baby white harp
seal! A bit hard to see this little white guy in the snow-how he loves it.!-Penny

If the living could really communicate with the dead, I will have a serious question to Karen--why you had to die so young, why?! Why?! Why?!
Tears roll down my face as I write this. How wonderful memories of her songs, in the 70's and 80's.
Why?! Why?! Why?!

I wish you could get the Carpenters two Christmas specials on DVD! They are sooooo classic. Funny, corny, but warm filled with Christmas spirit! :)

The first listen to the Carpenters' Christmas songs is always a winter first heartache - but in a warm and wonderful way.
