The Carpenters, Karen and Richard Carpenter sung the original song CLOSE TO YOU I liked them singing it but also like whoever sings this version. I would really like to know who is singing on this R.A.C. ad if anyone knows please let me know.
This version is good.

RAC are a bunch of crooks.. They renew break down cover even after you have told them not to and try to take payment..

The song is a Bacharach/David composition from 1963. It was recorded by two artistes prior to The Carpenters', which popularised it in 1970.
