either way, still some big musical losses in these two days. I'm young, and I've heard of all the aformentioned artists, and I know the Carpenter story. It truly is a sad one, and despite people saying it was her own fault for dying, it's not, it's a mental illness, and if I remember correctly, it was Karen that brought the disease into the public eye, making it a public issue. It brought to light alot about the illness, and she is still today a image used for research, and help programs for the disease. A great lady and singer, such a loss.
Also tragic is that plane crash, so much talent lost in one fateful crash.

Well said! (rockon)
 
I remember this old joke...

Q: What do you call Karen Carpenter with a yeast infection?
A: A quarter-pounder with cheese!

'We've Only Just Begun' is the song that made them millionaires overnight, also, from the album "Close to You".

If you like 'Close to You', wait until you here some of their other 110+ songs, such as,,,

"Reason To Believe"
"This Masquerade"
"Rainy Days and Mondays"
"I Believe You"
etc,,,,
