About
"The Singles: 1969–1973" is a remarkable album by the iconic pop duo, the Carpenters. This exceptional compilation of their greatest hits not only soared to the top of the charts in both the United States and the United Kingdom but also emerged as one of the best-selling albums of the entire 1970s era. Noteworthy features of this collection include a newly recorded rendition of "Top of the World", along with captivating versions of "Ticket to Ride" and seamless musical transitions between the timeless classics "Superstar", "Rainy Days and Mondays", and "Goodbye to Love". It is worth mentioning that the latter two tracks were slightly altered in pitch, a decision that Richard Carpenter later expressed regret over. The album's phenomenal success is evident through its impressive 7× platinum certification in the US alone. Additionally, in the UK, it held the number 1 spot for an impressive 17 (non-consecutive) weeks, while in Canada, it remained in the Top 100 for 33 weeks and secured the 21st position in the Year-end chart.
