  • simplicity at it best and the melody and lyric is so haunting

    The genius of Karen Carpenter

  • I agree, this is easily equivelant to We've Only Just Begun :)

    I am going to have to make a new video of this

    with the camera not leaning,

    I have a much better record player now,

    and I can add in the subtitles now, because I figured out how to do that lol

  • You're Enough was recorded in April 1982 at the same session when Karen sang Now, her final recording. She recorded both songs in California while she took a two-week intermission in her therapy with noted psychotherapist Steven Levenkron in New York City for her anorexia, which was a relatively unknown disease at the time.

  • That's sad, I didn't know that, were there any other songs recorded then, or were they the only 2 ?

  • There may be others, but those are the only two I am sure about.

  • Her voice got more angelic with every passing day, the final recordings sound even better than the early stuff that was already perfection, she was so angelic that she grew wings and flew up to Heaven, where she can finally feel even more love and happiness than she gave, and never worry about weight again, because in Heaven you can eat all day and stay perfect weight ( enjoy Karen, you have earned it )

  • The beauty about Karen Carpenter's song is that they are able to draw emotions out of you in a nice and easy way not unlike a lazy afternoon when the warm sunlight falls on the green fields before you

    its just pure nostalgia

    Karen Carpenter is indeed a one of a kind miracle that only happens once in a lifetime

    :)

  • Karen was so talented she could have sung anything.

  • @erginakif so true, such a great arranger and fills all the right spaces!

  • Great voice such a mellow tone and a range we hear less and less these days! I keep meaning to do a cover of masquerade!

  • This is a beautiful album in so many ways. I'm glad I own a copy and can play it whenever I am so inclined. Nothing replaces the original vinyl! My absolute favorite from "Voice of the Heart" is the song, "Now."

  • One of the last songs Karen Carpenter recorded, in early 1982. What's amazing is that even in her terrible physical condition,she never sounded better. Also, this was what is known as a 'work lead',I.E, a lay down track that was done, probably with just Richard on the piano to provide a guide for the other musicians to lay down their parts of the song, with Rich and Karen returning later to do their final vocals/piano track. Thankfully, the work lead was flawless, as usual.

  • pretty. again a new surprise. for me. small simple little lovely song. like crystal lullaby (sp). the horn ending. Herb Albert?

  • I did not know this song. It´s quite a surprise when you find this kind of rarities on youtube. It is always a pleasure listening her singing. I though I had heard all the Carpenters or her stuff, so it´s great finding something new for me. Thank you very, very much for uploading

  • i really love this song.. my friends are laughing at me. they're wondering why i know all carpenter's songs.. i have karen carpenter in me.. i really love her songs

  • Richard's arrangements are amazing. You simply can't add or take out anything. Every little sound there has meaning.

  • She died very young, but she gave us so much, she was, is and will be enough, just the best ever. I love Karen

  • how i miss those LPs and really powerful amplifiers, but i miss Karen more
