On this 2 CD set, this song appears on Disc B track 5.
I'm sure discussed before but enlighten me if a repeat. I've had this set since it was first released. In fact I have a personal ltr from Evelyn Wallace who wrote to me on Richard Carpenter letterhead reminding me not to forget to order this set by calling the 800 #. Disc B is my favorite just for the fact that there is just all "Karen" from start to finish. "thumbs up"
Now on to my discussion....Has Richard ever addressed the re-mix of this track, what a odd remix. There is nothing in the liner notes nor anything on the covers that would suggest this is a remix but it has been altered drastically. On my way to work I had this CD on and listening very closely to the tail end of this you can tell the last 5-10 secs are quite different, almost made me wonder if this was a alternate take of Karen singing that Richard just snuck in on us? What do you think?
If you listen closely to just Richard's last seconds on this track, I wonder if he used recent vocals overtop Karen's. OR is it just the remix that seems to bring his last vocals of the end in a new light? It sounds different from Richard.
I don't really enjoy the track from THIS CD, I much prefer the original untouched version. But it still makes me wonder about this Time Life version, why?
