Hello everyone. I haven't logged in for a very long time though I read the threads.
Goodbye to Love is one of my all-time favorite songs: new sound, less sugary, continuation of harmonies and sadly, somewhat prophetic lyrics.
Now, I wonder what would have happened had the Carpenters used it as a new blueprint: edgier though melodic sound while still maintaining the layered background vocals and meaningful lyrics.
True, this single was not the most TOP selling for them but a new sound always demands attention, appreciation and acceptance.
Instead, they turned direction to the other way and of course, sales reflected that.
What does everyone think?
