The Carpenters' Cover
According to the official website, Richard and Karen were vacationing in Hawaii in 1977 when they heard Keola Beamer's "Honolulu City Lights." They liked it, and wanted to record it, and recorded it at the same session as "Slow Dance". The recording was not commercially released until three years after Karen Carpenter's death. They finally released it in 1986, three years before it was released on the Lovelines album.
