How Could I Want More?

By Silver Blue

When I moved back to Virginia in 1980, I was 11, and was in love with the Chesapeake Bay, and with the sound of Karen Carpenter’s voice.

Some things never change, even 32 years later.

So I have a wonderful photo of the shoreline along the Chesapeake Bay:

As well as a surprise.

Some years ago, an acquaintance asked if I’d ever hear a particular vocalist. He then played “How Could I Ask For More?” I stopped dead in my tracks because to me, it sounded like Karen Carpenter. But it wasn’t. I recognized Richard Carpenter doing the backing vocals, but … in one place the artist singing pronounces the word “cloudy” as “crowdy”. LOL. Her name is Akiko.

Silver Blue, who has enough…how could I ask for more?
