I'd have traded them for Spice Girls any day! Now I have their Best Of album on my iPod and thoroughly enjoy listening to them. The lyrics resonate but the melodies always take me back to the house where I grew up, to the smell of something baking in the oven and to my mama.

The fact that she simply couldn't see herself in a loving way... so sad. We understand depression and anorexia and self loathing so much better now than we did then. In some ways, her death sparked people to really look at this Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7057552756982475561.post-41974878346040827392014-04-21T07:46:02.831-04:002014-04-21T07:46:02.831-04:00Karen Carpenter was such a good singer.
