Rainy Days and Mondays - The Carpenters (1971)
I have yet to hear a female voice more beautiful, pure and controlled than Karen Carpenter's. I saw a made-for-tv movie about her life when I was about 9 and it was one of the most inspiring and moving things I'd ever seen (still to this day). My mom had us tape the movie the night it aired and I swear my sister and I played it back so many times we wore the VHS tape right out. I've been searching the internet for a copy of this movie for a while now. I think I may have finally found the real one. Yay.
Note to Claudia: Karen had a passion for the drums at a young age, and when everyone told her to just hold the mic and sing because a drum kit wasn't lady-like, she told them to eat it. Pretty bad ass for the time huh? ;)
