Karen Carpenter - Love makin' love to you

This song is one of the several unreleased songs of Karen Carpenter solo album.

Love Makin' Love To You - Lyrics

Feel so fine every time
Oh I love makin' love to you
Anywhere, I don't care
Oh I love makin' love to you

Oh the fire in your eyes
Makes my loving temperature rise
Honey sweet ecstasy
Oh I love what your doin' to me

Give me more like before
Oh I love makin' love to you
Makes me feel life is real
Oh I love making love to you

When your heart touches mine
Starts to feel like a natural rhyme
Such a sweet melody
Oh I love when you sing it to me

And there's the lightening and thunder
Any set of wonders
Party on with what you've got
Keep it up forever
No-one does it better
Baby get it while it's hot

Oh, I think I'm in love, gonna lose control
Oh I want you to fill me with your soul

When your heart touches mine
Starts to feel like a natural rhyme
Such a sweet melody
Oh I love when you sing it to me

And there's the lightening and thunder
Any set of wonders
Party on with what you've got
Why'd you keep it up forever
No-one does it better
Baby get it while it's hot

I like Cher's version much better with Greg Allman

[ssoko]

@Jeff95117 I never hear it. I have to look for it.

Remember Karen's version is unfinished and never was released.

[ssoko]

After listening Cher version, it has more Disco rhythm than this one ...

I definitely prefer this version. Is more sensual....

[rayva1]

Can someone tell me the title of her solo album?

[ssoko]

@rayva1 it's named Karen Carpenter.

[FlyingMondongo]

Karen solo album was released in 1996!!!

El Sr. Richard no se decidió a sacarlo sino hasta esa fecha. ¡Qué vergüenza, Rich! Debes estar arrepentido hasta el día de hoy por no haber apoyado a Karen cuando debiste hacerlo.

[ssoko]

@FlyingMondongo tenés razón fue en el 96...

Pero no creo que él tuviera la decisión de sacarlo o no, ya que no fue el productor, sino Phil Ramon... La cuestión es de la compañía grabadora...

I love this woman, I wish she was still around, I would have loved to have met her. I sing along with here every night when I am taking a bath, LOVE YOU KAREN, CAN'T WAIT TO MEET YOU IN HEAVEN. WE MISS YOU SO MUCH ON EARTH! BUT YOUR VOICE WILL LIVE ON FOREVER.

perfect

@mrob75 - Yes, and Evie co-wrote it.

[SCArundale]

This is the very best of Karen's 'adult" songs ... she has a voice that is so gorgeous and she showed it in this song. She died way too young and the world lost a beautiful voice but even more beautiful of a person. She was just coming into her own when she died.

@033789 karen fantastic voice gg ski x

[mrob75]

Wasn't the original version of this song first done by Evie Sands? Seems I remember hearing a version by Evie Sands on the radio back in '75. 

[Tracevidence1]

On a scale of 1 to 10, I give this song a solid 8.

[ionthetarget]

I have now listened to every other recording of this song. Karen and Phil have made the definitive version. This would have been a smash hit, maybe only in discos, but would have crept out into the mainstream. The beginning of 'Phase Two' of an illustrious career.

[Mickagume]

Cher?! ...She of the monolithic style? (loud and louder) Cher could never sing with the intimacy of Karen...in fact, Cher could never sing with ANY intimacy (from "I've got you, Babe" on) ...she just "belts" it out, every song sounding much the same. Cher could never hold a candle to Karen Carpenter!

[squiffydoodle]

Love Karen but wish someone would post Evie Sands version here
