[原唱]The Carpenters

[背景介绍]

《Close To You》是卡朋特兄妹演唱的一首歌曲,收录于专辑《Yesterday Once More》中。

卡朋特兄妹是一对欧美兄妹组合,是上世纪70年代家喻户晓的乐团。他们共演唱500余首歌曲,几乎都是自己做词作曲。在全世界各地开过许多演唱会。主唱妹妹卡伦卡朋特(1950---1983),伴唱,演奏:理查德卡朋特(1946---)close to you是他们的成名曲之一,另一首则是yesterday once more(昨日重现)。这两首歌受到很多明星的称赞。除此之外,还有许多经典的歌曲:Jambalaya、top of the world等等。可惜年轻的卡伦过早的因为神经性厌食症离世于1983年2月4日,年仅33岁,卡朋特兄妹从此解散,也是一大遗憾……
