Hi everyone. I'm by no means tired of the Carpenters music. In fact, my father passed away last week unexpectedly and one of the first things I did to ease my mind was to listen to Karen and re-read Randy Schmidt's book on the plane home to see my mom and prepare for the funeral. However, I would like some suggestions on other artist's recording today that my fellow Carpenters fans like.
I took the suggestion to listen to the Corrs back when you guys were talking a lot about them and have been a fan ever since. I personally love a new band called the Ditty Bops. They are two girls who defy today's lousy music trends, as did the Carpenters, and they produce wonderful catchy, amazingly recorded songs in an older style. I hope you will take a listen to them. Their newest album is fantastic. They sing in harmony nearly all of the time (and their voices sound identical). I guess that's why I like them so much - because that's what makes the Carpenters so wonderful. Think "I Have You" but snappier (with just "pretty" voices....no camparison to Karen).
Can somebody give me suggestions for new music I may take a listen to? So that I can make a new play list on my Ipod that has a new song followed by a bunch of Carpenters, then another new song, and more Carpenters, etc.....
Thanks!
