A less well known song of Karen, but revealed the typical music style of the Carpenters.

This group also sang "Love is Surrender" - originally a Christian song by Ralph Carmichael.

  • @GodsPrincess4Ever "Close to You" was always a pop song, not gospel, written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David. However, "Love is Surrender" was originally a contemporary Christian song. I've never heard the "choir album" rumor, so I sort of doubt it, but the Carpenters' first album had a strong choral influence with "Invocation" and "Benediction."

  • Yeah I didn't even know their 1970 song from the album "close to you" was originally a Gospel song :) and if karen had lived it was rumored they were going to do probably a Choir album †

  • People always insulted The Carpenters that they were "Squeeky clean" and their music was just "beautiful" the words to most of their songs were so sweet and tender. I figure we have enough garbage to listen to and watch why not something beautiful and true? The way God made love to be? And God speaks to us through song as He does with this song. This is a prayer from my heart to the heart of God. always has been. Always will †

  • @arfies lol....really! they picked the wrong video for this!

  • @No1KCfan6 Kinda ironic, actually...

    "I don't need to go to church and listen to some preacher tell me what to believe in. I don't dig that at all." - Karen Carpenter radio interview, 1970

  • organized religion is just a scare tactic used to try to keep people in line. going back on topic, karen's vocals are just gorgeous here, and this song is so pretty.

  • Bravo to Karen for such a GORGEOUS performance. I feel especially blessed, too,  thinking of the Lord Jesus while she sings.

  • JUST BEAUTIFUL AND SOOOO VERY VERY TRUE THANX

  • @7vitaman OK...let's not argue...maybe your time would be better spent questioning your beliefs for yourself...and thinking a little beyond what you have been told....and mine being a wiccan and filing my nails.

    take care

  • @naughtypoppett Arguing with someone like you is a waste of time. You have rejected Jesus Christ. Wilingly. I am not amazed you are British. That place is the world center for wiccans.
