Sam Edelston of ContemporaryDulcimer played a cheerful dulcimer cover of the song (They Long to Be) Close to You", which was originally performed by The Carpenters in the 1970s. Edelston shared that he's a big fan of Karen Carpenters voice.

I thought Karen Carpenter had the most alluring voice in early '70s soft rock when she sang songs like Close to You" and We've Only Just Begun" over a bed of lush, multi-tracked harmonies sung by her and her brother, Richard. So do I love this song? Absolutely! Here's my dulcimer arrangement of Close to You."
