Karen Carpenter Close To You cover by Shelly

♥ HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! ♥

* I first recorded this song several months ago from a youtube karaoke video and decided I needed to get a better recording and video. I hope you enjoy!

** My love of Karen Carpenter's music started when I was just a tiny girl. Luckily my mom loved her too and played her music often. I remember laying on the carpet next to that great big stereo and how it moved me...This song took me to another place and began my love of music. Many thanks to you Karen Carpenter and MOM!
*** Last, but not least..thank you my darling Phil for your love, dedication and hard work in edit! I couldn't have done it without you!

Hello, I happen to be a fan of the late Karen Carpenter, and I have to say this is really really good. Another thing people are not taking into account did you do this just you? or did you use any fancy recording equipment? If the answer is no, IMAGINE how this would sound from that. YOU almost even look like her. I give this a 10! luv t.
