Karen Carpenter's vocal twin.
I am pretty sure that would be me.
You remember Karen… with her buttery voice all smooth like a clean shave sans razor burn… Even if you are not a wild fan of The Carpenters (I might fall into that category), it is absolutely inarguable – the woman’s voice is that of an angel. I will delete any comment otherwise. So, I guess what I am really trying to say might be,
I also have the voice of an angel, just like my vocal twin. You criticize her, you criticize me, and I only accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, Paypal and COMPLIMENTS.
Got it?
So, as I took a shower… and sang “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” in *ahem* buttery tonal perfection… I TOTALLY hit a note that sounded like Karen Carpenter. Totally. I was singin’ away and I was all, “Whut the whut?” I actually looked around for the ghost of Karen Carpenter. Then I thot, like, “THAT’S NO GHOST! THAT’S THE VOICE OF A FRIGGIN’ ANGEL!” I looked around the corner to find neither angel nor ghost… and that was when I realized -
I am the vocal twin of Karen Carpenter!
I! Know! Brains, beauty, crafty skillz, dancin’ skillz, vlogging skillz, and now… singing a note just like Karen Carpenter! If “Awesome” were matter and not an adjective/verb I would totally be oozing all kinds of awesome right now. If “Awesome” were matter, I believe it would look a lot like glitter, smell a lot like chocolate. ButIdigress…
So. Back to Me Karen and Me. We are also big fans of graphic tees.
It’s uncanny, I know…

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…

You have *the* best tees!
I am in awe of your Karen Carpenter note. I have yet to achieve that kind of awesome. Maybe one day…
I am awestruck by your awesomeness!
You need to get you singing that song on your Vlog!
I know I will play it!
Whoa. Uncanny, indeed.
Luv KC’s voice! Hence I’d luv your voice too. Add it to the every growing list of things to luv about Jenny!
I grew up on The Carpenters. My mother still breaks out the Christmas album every year. It’s not Christmas at my folks’ house without The Carpenters playing…
If you are truly the vocal twin of Karen Carpenter, then I think I will wrap you up in a bow and give you to my mom for Christmas.
gosh, Karen’s voice is *the* definition of clarity. love the carpenters
My precious Jenny,
I couldn’t help but “steal” this one from you and post it on my facebook….I didn’t think you would mind…..
Your writing “nailed” it down…..
Your heart and love and Craziness…..all rolled up in that Beautiful Woman! I love you!
Auntie Robin
Eerie.
I loved listening to the Carpenters’ Christmas Album when I was growing up! I sound just like her, too – but only in the bathroom and the car. It’s weird.
