TODAYS CHOSEN GOLDEN OLDIE FROM 1970....WE'VE ONLY JUST BEGUN. Karen and brother Richard !


MY GOLDEN OLDIES MEMORY LANE BLOGS ENTRY NUMBER ONE.

Where were you back almost 49 ago?. Was love and romance pounding in your heart? Wasn't life so full of promises to behold, treasure and cherish?

Oh those golden oldies songs of yesteryear carved deeply in our hearts to bring back memoires of long ago. People faded out of our minds again come alive remembered in our hearts!
I will be posting a treasure chest of your past memories in the form of golden Oldies along with some backgrounds.

WE'VE ONLY JUST BEGUN was written by Paul Williams in 1968 for of all things a bank commercial. Paul went on to write a few more number one hits for Karen and brother Richard.

So beautiful and talented, Karen Carpenter with her magical voice left us all
just one month short of her thirty third birthday on Feb. 4,1983.

Despite her fame, fortune and three year new husband Thomas.Karen

Karen the lead singer of The Carpenters, the Grammy-winning band she'd formed with her brother, died on this day, Feb. 4, in 1983, of heart failure related to her -long struggle with anorexia. She was just 32 and had no .

This song We've Only Just Begun signifies the great promise of Love shared by a young couple deeply in love with great expectations of their future together. It only shows how Mortal we all are!

WE'VE ONLY JUST BEGUN.

We've only just begun to live
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way
(We've only begun)

Before the risin' sun, we fly
So many roads to choose
We'll start out walkin' and learn to run
(And yes, we've just begun)

Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watching the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day
Together

And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
(And yes, we've just begun)

Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watching the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day
Together
Togehter
And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
And yes, we've just begun

THE MUSIC LIVES ,

Both the lyrics and melodies bring us into a state of feeling more alive ad happy.

This so called Rock and Roll thing viewed as evil and dangerous by our parents furnished us baby boomers and 50's kids with a deep cry of unity blended with common cause,

It gave us understanding of what we needed and deeply wanted.

It bonded a new generation of all of us seniors into togetherness.

So why the split of differences in this blog section? My next oldies will be on the Stones SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL!

Of course you know that I heard the melody as I read the words...... she had such a sweet, mellow voice.
And we definitely have reminders of our mortality all around us at this age.


Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

MrsJoe those reminders are telling us to live life to the fullest like you and Joe do. Embrace and celebrate.

Not only in the Present but the past as well and outside of a photo album, old 35mm film, Golden Oldies give us a past to revisit and enjoy.
