Very well done! Thanks for sharing. Favorited!

[eXtremeMohaz]

she is sooooooooo muchhhhhh missed.....nobody sings like her...this is the exact explanation, description and way of singing, no need to belt out or to shout just to captive your listeners and audience.

[tatuzou1000]

She is The Queen Of Pops!

[soboy55]

Karen had such a perfect voice, the best female vocalist ever. What a terrible loss.

[trafikuty]

Thank you for this wonderful work. Since her death I miss her voice so much.

[Karenfan09]

3 people cannot or will never see the true beauty in this song.

[carps1000]

Shes singing just for u isnt she...I know ive said it b4 and ill say it again..she is singing just for u

[MrCharlescolt]

Richard you are my everything, love your sister, sister Karen and I would take care of her, Karen was víitima of disaffection my friend!

[Karenfan09]

@MrCharlescolt WTF ????

[MrCharlescolt]

RICHARD VOCE FOI O MAIOR PRODUTOR MUSICAL QUE CONHECI ATÉ HOJE, PARA VOCE MEUS PARABENS E TUDO QUE POSSA HAVER DE BOM NESTE PLANETA TERRA !!!

[Tracevidence1]

This song just made me cry.

[DarrellLJames]

In about 1990 I purchased their 2-CD set, (among the first CD's I ever bought, after vinyl sort of disappeared from the stores!) and marvelled at how Richard would find two songs in the same key, recorded maybe ten to fifteen years apart, such as this very song and "Make Believe It's Your First Time," and put them together with nothing more than a bit of piano and maybe a wind chime.

You exhibit this sort of talent, in this extended version. Bravo!

[renatoeduardocasado]

não a palavras para descrever essa canção,embora só tenha 42 anos ela fez parte da minha vida no ano 88 quando a escutava na guarita do quartel,estava na época apaixonado pela primeira vez e tinha comprado o lp a arte de Carpenters e essa música ouvi pela primeira vez quando conheci o meu primeiro amor.saudades

[tatuzou1000]

So we need Karen's voice.

Karen, I miss you.



[keynes1001]

It's beautiful song. I love it so much!! 

[bloke372]

I just love this song so very much but this arrangement is the absoloute best.Her voice reaches in and more than touches the heart.Possibly one of the greatest losses to beautiful music.A beautiful lady with the most beautiful voice.

[sandisam80]

It just made me cry

[RealEstateMonica]

So So SOOOOOOOO Beautiful....what amazing talent........Truely an Angel

[TheEchovoices]

rivers of tears

[maleficentdiva]

I love the look Karen give the camera right before she goes back up on the stage beside Richard. You can tell that this song was exactly about her, she never found the one. WE ALL MISS YOU KAREN.  :)

[MrZaggai]

I Need To Be In Love....:(

[leftatalbuquerque]

omygodomygodomygodomygod!!!!!

Wow.

You are the master. You are the tree of life and knowledge, and I am but a... fruit. - quickly paraphrased from Bette Midler

[kcleadsister5083]

Beautiful....your video and Karen's voice. I could watch this all day! Thank you David.

[2h12uchangle]

you got me have my headphone on, great job!

[RichieLev1]

"I Need To Be In Love," one of my all-time favorite songs, demonstrates Karen's truly unique voice. How sad, how poignant, the ending of this video, as of course was the tragic early end of her life. Can't help but wonder how someone with such incredible musical talent, who could convey such beauty & emotion through her singing, found difficulty finding true happiness for herself. Would've loved to have known her & told her just how much she's meant to so many! Karen, we miss you!!! 

[Undefeated92]

PERFECT VOICE.

[Parichate]

Thank you so much. This give me the special moment. ^^

[MrB1nz]

love this song very much.... 

[c4ldeira]

still beautiful ...

[wasabisushi404]

thank you so much. :')

[cfpauloc]

The Carpenters - I Need To Be In Love... Belíssima canção...

[SalMessina1]

Mia dolce, splendida Karen R.I.P. :(

[ssoko]

Excellent job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[eireman]

LOVE.. that was.. and STILL IS.. THE OVER RIDING MESSAGE .. OF THE CARPENTERS. MISSING YOU KAREN! KEEP STRONG RICHARD!

[mjimme]

At the beginning, it looks like Richard had plastic surgery. His face is smooth and no wrinkles. Karen's favorite so I've heard. Mine, also.

[tomtompataygutom]

"the hardest part i've ever done is keep believing, there's someone there who's waiting just for me..."

- felt like i was stabbed in the chest. raise your hand if you felt the same thing.

[MRJELLYJ2]

Wow this is amazing. do you plan on working on others?

[radweed2009]

Very touching tribute by Richard.

[Karenfan09]

@radweed2009 You mean THEmotownboy...He was the one that mixed the audio and clips in together.....GREAT JOB, THEmotownboy !!!!!!!

[TVtuner1]

I was touched by him playing alone after she's long gone...it seems very sad, but again patience has paid off, from 2:00 comes with the best and most clear, vocal version of the song you can find on youtube. yet I'm glad this vedio has only little views.

[TVtuner1]

one thing I can say about this song is that you don't have to ever been in love to experience what love feels like. it's all in her voice, the joy and the pain, and when the song goes to just the music piece it self when her vocal paused at 4:29 and focus goes to the lonely old gray Richard, my eyes just started to water up, I never knew a pause could be suck a peak and climax of a song, then the resume of her singing near the end is a nice touch. Kneel before the editor

[MrJohninphx]

MoTownboy you absolutely NAILED this gorgeous remix. I humbly bow to you. Thank you for making a stellar song even more incredible to listen to. You have made a really rotten day for me turn around and end on a wonderful note. More More More from you please ! (John in Phoenix)

[moonmusical]

So sad what happened to Karen. A beautiful singer and performer. I was a teen when all their songs came out and cried to them.

[eliud82]

Wow, i've enver heard this song before and I just LOVE IT.

[kcfan64]

I imagine the source from which "the parts w/out vocal" came, were used (taken from) "The Original Master Karaoke-Best of the Best" CD which Richard mixed and remastered for the Japan release back in the early 90s. It's the only known exact copy karaoke of Carpenters out there and very rare and now out of print. I own a copy which a traded years ago for another equally rare item. Mr. Joe? who operated the Carpenters fan club at the time (pre-internet) was a great guy and he traded it with me.

[MasterAceman123456]

Magnificent.

[Carpentersfan2003]

I think that Karen would be stunned by this mix.. You took her " all time favorite song" and breathed new life into it... I had a lump in my throat after hearing this... Very Well Done... Thank you...

[ssoko]

This is a real gem! I think exactly as elisarmd, Richard himself would be happy with your editing work. Simply a master peace!

[elisarmd]

es una joya!! hasta el mismo Richard estaría encantado con esta edición, te felicito, me hizo emocionar mucho ver a Karen con esa voz magnífica que tenía, me encantó el gesto que hace en 5:20. Una fan de los Carpenters desde Argentina

Elisa

[Nicoya1961]

One of a kind...she makes my soul sing.

[tobyboyist]

this is my favourite all time song by the Carpenters , beautiful lyrics and as usual Karens voice is just amazing!

[wilhub]

you should be officially commisioned to remix the carpenters` work, as i doutb that we will ever hear any of the contents of the vaults....

[muskokan59]

Simply amazing....gives me goosebumps. Bravo!!

[karenaperville]

I wonder if now in later years, when Richard plays these songs alone, he hears Karen's voice in his mind.

[modspell]

2:00 She looks like she didn't appreciate what she just read in Billboard!

[mushyren]

great song.. i love it!! =)

[dkoga1]

Awesome video, very well put together. The Carpenters are an all time classic. Karen was taken from this world way too soon. It's so sad that the children now days will never know of her talent. I feel blessed to have been born so that I could enjoy their music.

[Mickeyzzzz]

The most pure and natural female voice ever, we will never forget you Karen.

[joshwelljonesfirst]

One of The greatest female vocalist of all Time. At 3.55 what was her stylist thinking,

[rickw1100]

What a beautiful work of art-celebrating a duo who changed the course of popular music. This is so wonderful. Wherever one goes in the world and one of her songs comes on- everyone stops to listen.-Everyone knows who is singing. There will never be another Karen Carpenter. Thankyou for this.

[christ771]

Esto si que es una pieza marabillosa de música. Da gusto verla y escucharla una y otra vez. Felicito a quien también hizo este hermoso trabajo.

[aaflyer98]

Awesome Mix!!! Pure perfection!!! How can I download this to a disc or iTunes? It's a collectors dream!

[varietylover]

Only a person with a heart of stone would not shed tears listening to this wonderful delivery...

[Simon5005]

The voice of an angel. I adored Karen. I was incredibly fortunate to have seen them in concert in Abilene, Texas in the fall of 1973.

[33455432]

這是我聽過這首歌最悲傷的版本

缺席的人聲，讓身為兄長的李察卡本特以妹妹早逝的思念，孤單的、­沒 有微笑的彈奏這首他兄妹倆膾炙人口的天鵝之歌。

給凱倫---「謝謝妳留給世間這麼美好的音樂與孤獨」

[33455432]

This is the saddest version I've heard about this song.

Absence of Karen’s voices, shows that Richard’s thoughts of his sister. He did not smile, played alone in this popular swan song.

To Karen --- "Thank you to leave this world so beautiful voice and solitude"

[wilski41]

@33455432 I hate hate hated the part when her voice diminishes. My heart just breaks for this talent that is never to be matched again. i must give whoever, whomever did this mix, kudos! I have never been so moved by ANY other.

[TheOrontes]

What a fucking incredible voice. Nothing has and ever will.........come close to this. Damn...why did we have to lose you so early!!!??

[280553vs]

wonderful, thank you for loading. Richard and Karen are soooooooo special. Love you guys.

[alicha07]

Thanks a million THEmotownboy...I feel alive again.

[melodyworks]

This is music in the true sense of the word...as a songwriter if I could ever achieve one quarter of this genius...I would be happy.

[Karenfan09]

I have to watch this video at least once a week.....It is such a great video !!!!!

[TheOrontes]

@Karenfan09

What a great comment. I feel exactly the same way.........miss her sooooo much.

[carps1000]

abs brilliant well done and thanku. Karen the voice Richard the genius = Carpenters

[modspell]

The live track this is video showing is a fantastic performance, maybe even better than the CD recording.

[alanxreed]

<3 <3 <3 KC & this song!

[noellepenha]

Nossa, até chorei... Muito emocionante...

[paterphila]

Lovely simply lovely...

[143bst]

song never ever fade..........

[NiceOldBoy]

Thank you for sharing this tribut to the one and only Karen Carpenter!

Froehliche Gruesse aus Tirol

;-)

[barryt60]

I love love love how you have done the logo treatment here. That your handy-work?  The whole thing is teriffic - but I wanted to particularly compliment you on the magical treatment of the introduction.... Kudos - and thanks so much!

[maleficentdiva]

SIMPLY MAGICAL! no other singer will ever replace Karen! she touches your soul, like no other! GOD I LOVE THIS WOMAN!

[kcrcbest]

AAAAAAAAH BEAUTIFUL, THANX EVER SOOOOOO MUCH

[jamaila123]

YOU ARE SO VERY GENIUS YOU GOT ALL THE SYNC

[carps1000]

fab

[ctbear26]

Nicely done.

[myfeeling4you]

Have to agree with all the comments, beautifully presented, such rare footage , for a moment I felt as though I was in heaven, maybe I was.

I often wondered if Richard wrote these songs with Karen in mind, when you think about the circumstances around Karens life and how she felt about herself the songs reflect very much her life and her sadness. Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity to listen to perfection.

Cheers

[klaatuinc]

Good job! Thanks for your effort.

[DISCOVEGASGUY]

That was so unbelievable. Thanks so much !! I can't even find the words right now to describe my feelings after watching this. Thanks, thanks, thanks !!

[stunatox]

Karen surely had one of the most magnificent voices I have ever heard.

Here's another....Go to the search box at the top of the screen and type in "The Seekers".......then fall in love with Judith Durham

[TAHOF]

AMAZING!

i have tears in my eyes...

thank you, motownboy, amazing work!

[MrJonk1969]

are those -- no, they can't be-- CULOTS that she's wearing?! OH, DEAR GOD, NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[THEmotownboy]

@MrJonk1969 - I thought they were called "Gauchos." She was cute n them.

[modspell]

@MrJonk1969 At least they weren't clam diggers!

[MasterAceman123456]

@MrJonk1969 Culottes and shes an angel in those or a burlap sack!

[MrJonk1969]

thanks for creating this, themotownboy. one of karen's many finest performances.

[beewardrobe]

Wow, I thought this was a high end production done by Richard Carpenter himself with millions of dollars being employed. Here I find someone did this as perhaps a hobby. This is a magnificeint piece of editing work that bring out more sensitive qualities of the song. Good I mean fantastic work -- you should be proud of yourself.

[THEmotownboy]

@beewardrobe - Thank you so much! The real motivation, of course, is Richard & Karen's timeless music.

[MasterAceman123456]

@THEmotownboy Well done and ty, an instant add to my collection of The Carpenters!

[xenbay]

Really good job on the video, it's incredible the way you got it all sync. Very professional!

[THEmotownboy]

@xenbay Thank you so much!

[steveatl40]

Clever...starting out with the kareoke version (sans vocal) with Richard at the piano...then bringing in Karen's voice. It truly shows how amazing that voice was.

[kcleadsister]

This video is Awesome!!! This was Karen's favorite Carpenter's song. You can still see the pain in Richard's eyes as he plays the piano.

[jeffreysoule44]

Agreed.. Richard will carry that pain with him until the day he dies. Very sad, but a beautiful song and Karen's fave.

[felixbautista]

One of my faved recordings from the carpenters. thanks for the upload.

[FlyingMondongo]

Se comprende que este sea el tema preferido de Karen, Richard lo escribió pensando en ella, dice mucho de sí misma.

[lucycow]

motownboy...Thank you for this WONDERFUL video and your special mix. I was literally crying by the end because you my friend did a brilliant job on this. Thank you my friend. I know Rich would be impressed with this rendition without question. All of your Quad videos are now are part of my life as well and saved on my harddrive. God I miss Karen....

Bravo Bravo Bravo.

John in Phoenix AKA Lucycow......

[THEmotownboy]

John, thank you so much for your comment!

[earcandy2008]

@lucycow ...you said it all lucycow.

[wilhub]

STRANGELY FORGOTTEN VID BY RICH

[Karenfan09]

AWESOME JOB on the video, motownboy !!!!!! Hearing just the instrumental part of this song really shows just how beautiful this song is but Karen singing it , puts it over the top.

[deni696969]

woow

[ctbear26]

With the original video and the stage version, I was always surprised it was never included in the videos officially released. After all, it was Karen's favorite Carpenters song. Thanks you for this; I just wish I could download it.

[RickHenry]

To quote Karen in an interview in 1976 she said at the moment "I Need To Be In Love" was her favorite song. I would guess to say that by 1977 her favorite song was probably something from the album "Passage" and by the time of her passing her favorite was probably something from her solo album.

[inkimuff]

@ctbear26 On their official website, Richard said he hated that video calling it The Love Plane or something and this is why it's never seen the light of day on any of their releases.

[RickHenry]

Not my favorite Carpenters song... but this mix is done very well and video was put together to perfection. Excellent job THEmotownboy.

[THEmotownboy]

JonKonLA & tuffy2342, thank you both for the kind comments.

[JonKonLA]

This was beautifully done. Congratulations on an outstanding job.

[tuffy2342]

Beautiful Thanks for posting. Really enjoyed it.
