There was a time when The Singles 1969-1973 hogged my CD player 24/7. The Carpenters do magnificent things for me. For one, it eases knots in the heart. And it never fails to cheer me up or help me sleep, whichever one I was in need of.
It's been a while since I've felt such need to hear Karen's voice. Rainy days and Mondays always get me down, but today is neither. Yet I still got what they used to call the blues. I knew I needed The Carpenters when I not only missed a stop on my way home yesterday but hopped onto the wrong train right after.
I have my dad to thank for bringing some of the best music into my life. The Carpenters have been listed as my music ever since I started getting goosebumps listening to their songs. Pavarotti is good too, just not goosebumps material for me.
