"The songwriting and musically technical genius of Richard, Karen's natural rhythm and reassuring ease of her voice, makes this album well deserved to have topped the charts".

“Tunic (Song for Karen)” from Sonic Youth’s 1990 album Goo. While Daydream Nation was the band’s absolute masterpiece LP, side 1 of Goo was right there, too. Flawless. What a badass band. #sonicyouth #altrock #kimgordon #vinyl #karencarpenter

But I would not be convicted by a jury of my peers
Still crazy after all these years

"Rock with You" is a song by the American singer #MichaelJackson, written by #RodTemperton and produced by #QuincyJones. It was first offered to #KarenCarpenter, while she was working on her first solo album, but she turned it down. It was released in October 1979, by #EpicRecords as the second #single from Jackson's fifth solo studio album #OffTheWall (1979). It was also the third number-one hit of the 1980s.

La Tragedia de Karen Carpenter: Narcisismo Materno

La trágica historia de Karen Carpenter: La madre narcisista y su impacto en la vida de una de las voces más puras de la música

Karen Carpenter, una de las voces más icónicas de la música, no solo luchó con problemas personales, sino también con una madre que, lejos de apoyarla, la sumió en una espiral de inseguridad y sufrimiento. La figura central de este tormento fue su madre, Agnes Reuwer Tatum, cuya relación con su hija estuvo marcada por el narcisismo y la preferencia por su hijo, Richard Carpenter.

A pesar de que Karen poseía una voz excepcional, la madre no pudo ver más allá de su propio ego y se enfocó en una preferencia enfermiza por su hijo, dejando a Karen en un segundo plano. Esta relación tóxica, además de otros factores, contribuyó al complejo de inseguridad que Karen experimentó desde muy joven.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__VQX2Xn7tI

Desde niña, Karen luchó contra su peso. Aunque no era obesa, tenía una figura regordeta que no cumplía con los estándares estéticos de su madre, quien con su actitud superficial sembró en Karen una disforia corporal que la llevó a desarrollar trastornos alimenticios. Esta enfermedad no solo destruyó su salud, sino que terminó con su carrera y nos robó una de las voces más hermosas que la música ha conocido.

Karen Carpenter murió a una edad temprana, víctima de los trastornos alimenticios y del daño emocional causado por su madre. Su historia es un recordatorio de lo importante que es el apoyo emocional en la vida de los artistas, especialmente cuando son jóvenes y vulnerables.

Reflexión final: Es fundamental reconocer la influencia que figuras como Agnes Reuwer Tatum tuvieron en la vida de sus hijos y cómo este tipo de relaciones pueden tener consecuencias devastadoras. La historia de Karen Carpenter es una tragedia que nos invita a pensar en la importancia de cuidar la salud mental y emocional de las personas.

The theme for #TuneTuesday is #MusiciansWhoLoveOtherMusicians and this isn't the happiest of songs or subjects of an artist's life, but here's Sonic Youth's "Tunic (Song for Karen)" penned not long after Karen Carpenter's death.

Long ago, and oh, so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here, it's just the radio

Wow. This poignant live cover of the #Beatles' HELP shatters a bunch of preconceptions.

* If you think of #KarenCarpenter only as a brilliant vocalist, not as a superb drummer, this video sets the record straight

* If you think of #Carpenters as primarily a studio phenomenon, ditto

* If you think of HELP primarily as a high-energy romp, this more melancholy cover (and its exquisite harmonies) highlights the intimacy and vulnerability of the lyric

Hay historias en la música que no son fáciles de contar. Y mucho menos de leer.

Y quizás eso las hace más necesarias.

Y la historia de hoy es un ejemplo de lo que han tenido que pasar muchas mujeres músicas en su carrera.

Hoy, en #LaHistorietaMusical , Karen Carpenter.

Karen Carpenter died on this day in 1983 & was one of the most gifted and beloved singers of all time. With a distinctive 3 octave contralto range, she performed with her brother Richard as "The Carpenters," winning 3 Grammy awards. She is listed in the top 100 greatest singers of all time. Her death from heart failure, a result of anorexia raised awareness of eating disorders and body dysmorphia. #KarenCarpenter #TheCarpenters #MusicRoyalty #Music #Singers #Drummers #Musicians

Reading up on #WeyesBlood as I'm soaking in her beautiful recent album, *And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow*

Her voice has a lot of #KarenCarpenter and #AimeeMann , but the one person she reminds me of more than anyone else is #JudeeSill .

She is a far stronger songwriter than Judee, but there's just that hint of spirituality-caused sadness, if that makes any sense.
