I hope that you are all taking the time to check out this weekly feature. I will only include what I believe to be great "undiscovered" songs. This one was never released as a single, included on the debut album Close To You by the Carpenters. 40 years later, the song still hasn't been given its due, yet there are signs that it continues to grow in popularity as new people discover it every day.
Karen, of course, is recognized as one of the great voices of all-time, and this is certainly one of her best performances. The song's key perfectly fits her hauntingly beautiful alto voice. You'll want to hear this song again and again after you take the first step. I have included a link to a great YouTube video by Ned Nickerson that accompanies the song. As always, you can find it in the Unknown/Underrated Section at the top right of this web site. And, you'll be able to find it forever in the Tab at the top of the page as well.
Green September
Burned to October brown
Bare November
Led to december’s frozen ground
The seasons stumbled round
Our drifting lives are bound
To a falling crescent noon
Feather clouds cry
A vale of tears to earth
Morning breaks and
No one sees the quiet mountain birth
Dressed in a brand new day
The sun is on it’s way
To a falling crescent noon
Somewhere in
A fairytale forest lies one
Answer that is waiting to be heard
You and I were
Born like the breaking day
All our seasons
All our green Septembers
Burn away
Slowly we’ll fade into
A sea of midnight blue
And a falling crescent noon Source URL: http://acsblogrock.blogspot.com/2011/05/new-song-for-archives.html
