  • Excellent piece of work, bravo.

  • is he blind?

  • Galing mo Sir!!!

  • I sez "a-o'tay"!!! we need more of this kind of stuff rather than hip hop doo doo jungle rot

  • Um, can someone mind to tell me, who is this man singing in the video? he sang great~ tanks :)

  • yeah, man. heartfelt..

  • very well done!

  • its one of my favorite song!!!!

  • Simple and beautiful acoustic version! It touched my heart! Hugs from Brazil.

  • who is he?

  • He didn't sing this to compete with the Carpenters.

    He sings it as a reminder of how the world still misses Karen and a tribute to her memory.

    He simply sings it honest and true from his heart.

    Think it simply is great from the heart and soul.

  • Oh you know I love this:) Had to stop back in for a listen today:))

  • Good job Dude. But you know our Karen takes the cake. And you're missing those jet-set country guitar licks to back you up.

  • awesome..so awesome

  • your version is pleasant..keep it up !!!

  • Had to hear this one too:) I always loved how you did this as you know! Hope all is well in your world:)

  • Thank you Derek and thanks to Paul Williams this nice composition. :^)

  • Hey Emmanuel. Perfect rendition. Chords playled so beautifully.

    A side note: I use to argue with my Heavy Metal "friends" when I was a teenager about the Carpenter's music. They'd say they didn't like them, and I would just tell them: My God, you'd have to hate music not to like the Carpenters music. It's that good. -Ron

  • Wow Ron! Found another gem at your place :^) Sorry been away kinda busy lately but always nice to see you and read your contemplative posts.

  • tingnan mo nga naman kung sino pa yung me kapansanan.. mas malaki pa ang talent nya kaysa sa nakakakita... mabuhay ka kabayan... ingit ako syu. ako normal pero walang talent... puro utang pa nga...

  • Celine!! A double surprise! First how impressive you are and that why only 19 subs?! If you're not aware of OMDB (Original Music Data Base) yet, you may want to go visit ModernOracle's channel and find out then link some of your originals there. Also there are several effective promoters around -- you may want to check out KavernKitty, LeopardJoy and at least two other good promoters -- your channel deserved a lot more visits. See you round and round :^)

  • Cheers for the support and the advice..

    I'll get on the case!!

    Still trying to get my head around Youtube!!!!

    Best Wishes,

    Celine.

  • Hello Celine... :^)

    "Still trying to get my head around"

  • Very beautiful song with a perfect saund! six very good: Hi Emanuel.

  • Grazie PinoBro. Yes Paul Williams is one of the best songwriters ever. :^)

  • Oh what a beautiful song this is:) Karen Carpenter was a magnificent singer and hearing you sing this brings a lump to my throat... You did a wonderful job!!

  • Thank you KW4Life :^) -- I hope you'll send me an invite to one of your cover, looking forward to it.  You'll sound more wonderful than this :^)

  • Also there are no official rules from YouTube regarding this. At least you got over 3 minutes to change channels before it counts as a view the first seconds you realize it's not what you thought it is. Have a good day. :)

  • Hello TVFan -- sorry you did not like what you find. I don't think I'll place my name in all my videos including my originals -- perhaps if one of my goals is to be famous I'd consider. When you upload your videos it asked for the Title and that's what you see up there.

  • wow luv it

  • ParadiseEarth you made us proud that you're one of us. Filipinos are really great in music and you're the living proof. Songtruth and ParadiseEarth together in one video will bring joy to many of us believing and wanting good music from good people like you and ST. Mabuhay ka! Starting this very minute consider me as one of your fans and help earth followers. BTW do you play country music like 'my own peculiar way' of Willie Nelson?

  • wow thas good im also pinoy!!!!!!!!1

  • SongTruth & ParadiseEarth1 - Now that sounds like a dream that has a probability of coming true :^) Willie's Peace Song was the first I've covered, but might not be the last. :^)

    Salamat very much to you both, and thank you for the sub Helen (*wink* to Junaz heh heh) --it makes me happy to be near our lovely idol with a voice that melts our hearts :^)

  • Oh wow Helen gee you're soo nice you sound like someone I know, you're making me shy -- but thank you for your kind comment. If you and Junaz have not seen Chris @ his ccendana channel I suggest you check him out too. :^)

  • And thank you for the chance to showcase the great intangible worth of great compositions Jim. How lucky we are to have lived in the era of great musicians like Paul Williams & The (Karen) Carpenters. Catch this anytime you need to Bro... :^)

  • very good covers, and the images on the back are so nice. i'm a frutrated musician and i would have been the happiest man doing what you do, singing and playing my favourite classics :-)

  • Thank you Adrian :^) You still got plenty of time to do music... but I guess your ventures are taking all of your time these days. Otherwise it's true about the nature of music in how it stirs the heart with passionate affections and in turn pumps euphoria into our imaginations -- music is priceless in that sense. Exception -- time for practice can buy you bliss through singing your favourite classics :-)

  • amazing.....Paul Williams is very young in this video!!!

  • Whew Bolantoy! Young and hot hot hot I'm sure. Thanks for stopping by pare.:^)

  • weren't the carpenters such an awesome group? What a voice Karen had! I love your cover I am singing the song with you here at my computer:) Thanks for putting it up :)5*****

  • Whew Deb! :^)... thanks a lot*****

    Indeed! I only know of one special person that sounds like Karen. :^)

  • You do choose some fab old all time greats , you have good taste , good voice , good videos, good songs , you got it all. well done 5

  • Thanks Bro and so do you with the classics. Hope you find the right software for your needs. Thanks for stopping by :^)

  • Indeed we do have a plan Sir, one of the first I'm aware of, I'll send it for your evaluation. And you're right about the Mobius strip being discovered by a mathematician etc.

    In our context, it signifies the endless loop of positivism that will become the norm once the plan becomes familiar to many and gets implemented.

  • ciao Emanuel,bella melodia complimenti da un' amico.

  • Buono a sapersi mio amico :^) Paul Williams è uno dei migliori cantautori and SongTtruth sa troppo. :^)

  • hATE COVER SONG

  • Very nice. One of my favorite Carpenters songs.

  • Thank you SongTruth -- And you're the best artist I've heard around here covering Rainy Days and Mondays and For All We Know and I hope We've Only Just Begun.

  • Wow, thank you, Paradise! We've Only Just Begun is on my list to sing. :)

  • Great! Looking forward to sharin' horizons that are new to us and workin' together day to day... and I'll be sure to have A Song For You. :^)

  • And gracias to you also for the kind words and for taking time to visit. Por favor me saludan a Jessica next time you see her.

  • In the words of good Stra2Caster, we are a "möbius strip" of karmic positivism, and we hope to see that 30 thousand rise up to 3 billion by Woodstock's 50th Anneversary and become a catalyst of a new age -- The Golden Age.

  • You're a kind person WMA :) In this channel that's a sure thing :^)

  • bravo! bravo,bel video e  bella canzone ciao.

  • Ciao amico :^) Voi cantare il tuo canzoni magnificamente anche. Ti preghimao iscriviti -- grazie un milione :^)

  • good job buddy!!

  • Good evening good ScottBro :^) Thanks for stopping by.

  • get rid of the accent first.. lol

  • Ha Ha Ha that's very funny... then after that I can sing almost as good as you? Or please explain in detail what you mean. Thanks.

  • You heard me, The very strong filipino accent is noticeable.. rofl.

  • ROFL Ha Ha Ha Ha that's hilarious. Thanks for the encouragement; I'm going to practice longer for the next projects.

    But please do share which part is the strongest and he most noticeable, and what other funny observations do you have? And what is second? Thanks.

  • Word of advice, Don't quit your day job...

  • Ha Ha EmpoyRule You're funny - Thanks Bud, no plans of stopping what I do during the day but we're considering a second job offer to play 9 -- 12 couple of nights a week and I don't need to get rid of the accent you perceived first.

    Thank you for the encouragements, gives me sweet inspiration to polish my act a little bit more -- I better go practice and get better yet...

    Please come visit again, You Rule! :^)

  • Oh and please don't forget the answers to the questions I've asked you. Thanks Bud... see ya :^)

  • its nice to know

    that theres someone out there singing karens siren song,

    makes us belong.

    when theres no getting over that rainbow,

    and Ive done all that any man can do.

    I can take all the madness the world has to give,but I cant save the Earth

    without you!!

  • Alright John! :^) Thank you! And the amazing engineering required to build powerful projects like that, with new objectives, is the same ingenuity required to save Earth and free us all at the same time -- a win win situation for everyone. :^)

  • Wow, that was great. And thanks for the interesting background story of the song

  • You're Welcome Kris -- 1974 was a long time ago I'm sure you just heard this song lately :^)

  • I wasn't born in 1974 yet ;) But I've known The Carpenter's music for about 10 years now :)

  • Cool Bro! How wish I were as young as you :^) It's great to have a forum like YouTube where good-natured people can share and comprehend the universality of the gift of timeless music. Good to hear you've gone back as far as Elvis -- time is on your side, more power to you. :^)

  • You are better than most of those morons on AMERICAN IDOL...thank God for people with good taste like you

  • LOL Steve! The one I can't better I guess is William Hung. Thanks again :^)

  • its sad to say but i love your cover of this song better than the original. lol but its really good, could you do me a favor and tab this out for me or something. having so many troubles hearing it by ear. PeaCe OuT>?

  • LOL Hello Hydsun3, glad you were not disappointed and I hope our friend is not going to chide you for that. Ah maybe that's why, indeed you can do this too. I don't have tabs but I'll email you something you can work with. Thanks for listening. :^)

  • Sorry to disappoint you, but I hope not! I mean the last time I heard The Carpenters they sound as smooth as Karen's sweet female voice.

  • This sucks! You cant compare to the Carpenters!
