Last year, I read the book “Little Girl Blue,” a biography of Karen Carpenter. Learning about her life, her struggles, her most heart-felt desire to know what love truly can be; it really touched me. This song was what she called her signature song. Her longing to know what it was to be in love and be loved is so clearly captured through this selection. I recorded this just after reading her story. I feel like knowing the story behind the songs I sing really helps me convey the messages the original composers and performers had in mind.
I Need To Be In Love
By Desiree Renae
I am a Mom, a professional and in my heart a performer. I enjoy singing and recording, not only for myself but I really feel it can bring joy to those around me. I was born blind, which comes with its own challenges and sometimes barriers. I am always looking for opportunities to give those around me positive energy. When others feel good, I feel good.
