A tribute song remembering Karen Carpenter who was taken at an early age amid a successful music career.

list of some Carpenters hit songs
Back in 1973, Karen and me in true harmony together
She was famous but I would be a real nobody, in obscurity forever
I would listen to her sing and everything she sung stayed in my mind
but I couldn't find... that sultry tone, so deep and rich, I didn't even have the pitch high or low no breath control, oh I was no contralto
Then in 1983 Karen left me so tragically, she died
but I have her great legacy, the singer I'd be would hold all her songs inside
Spoken tribute
Karen was my heroine for all the joy she used to bring... and how... she's doing it now
She was reluctant to perform until she took the music world by storm... and she still lives in me somehow
