Whenever I listen to this number, by default my spirits tend to get lifted up largely due to it's extremely inspiring lyrics and the way it's been rendered by Karen Carpenter that oozes sweetness and a feeling of warmth on account of her cherubic silky smooth crystal voice.
Like Michael Jackson, Karen Carpenter was such a talent to reckon with possessing such angelic voice chords which is simply not possible to not fall in love with. Her voice bowled over and captivated music lovers. Unfortunately on the flip side, her life was tragic and she fell prey to health complications resulting from anorexia leading to a very early death at the height of her powers.
Despite the short stint that life provided her with, she did full justice to her talent bowling over and bewitching music lovers via her enchanting vocal prowess. She and her brother Richard Carpenter formed the band 'The Carpenters' with the sibling duo raking it big time by producing wonderous musical tunes during their time together.
The Top of the World will always remain a perennial favourite and I just wanted to share a few lines on the instrument of this riveting beauty sung by the magical Karen Carpenter with it being set to tune and penned by her brother Richard Carpenter. If ever a composition could be christened as a motivational melody, 'Top of the World' by the Carpenters will right royally be up there with the very best.
