Hello!
I'm
Timothy Cho. I've been in love
with the Carpenters' music since I was studying in F.4. Although I can't
exactly explain how can their music keep on touching my deepest inside
for years, I bet you could find out the reason yourself when you listen
to Karen's golden honey and Richard's wonderful song arrangement. Thus,
this homepage is prepared for sharing my joy of their music with you!
[GRIN] For the following sections, you can find a song book of The Carpenters
where some of their lyrics with midi are provided. (You may simply click
the moving music note for selecting your favourite song.) Besides, a
list of their album released are shown. Should you want to have more
information about them, some others pages about the Carpenters are linked
for you to check them out. Right now, let me introduce their story briefly
for you frist...... :)
During
1969 to 1981, the brother and sister duo, comprising Richard, born in
Oct. 15, 1946 and Karen Carpenter, born in Mar 2, 1950, made twenty
trips to the Top 40 singles charts with their ultra-sweet light pop
featuring Karen's wholesome, even-tempered alto voice. For the first
half of the 70s, the Carpenters were one of pop's most successful acts
with twelve Top Ten hits, including "Top of the World", "(They
Long to Be)
Close to You", "We've Only Just Begun", "Rainy Days
and Mondays", "Superstar", "Hurting Each Other",
"Yesterday Once More", "For All We Know" and "Sing".
Unfortunately,
on
February 4, 1983, Karen was found unconscious at her
parents'
home in New Haven; she died in the hospital that morning from a cardiac
arrest, which was caused by her anorexia.
