Carole King has a really strong voice, the album Tapestry has great songs such as "It's Too Late" and "You've Got a Friend". Frankly, there are songs in the album that could be everyone's favorite, and it is very difficult to say that just one song is my favorite. But if I had to choose one, I would say my favorite is "Beautiful".

Carole King - It's Too Late

Carole King - You've Got a Friend

Carole King - Beautiful

The song really lives up to its name. "Beautiful" is a motivational song for me. Carole King watches a close eye on the daily rat race and notices passersby on the street with expressions of disappointment on their faces. Yet instead of letting their frustrations get her down, Carole King turns it into a message of positivity where one line is as profound as the next as she proclaims.

I have often asked myself the reason for the sadness
In a world where tears are just a lullaby
If there's any answer, maybe love can end the madness

A truly excellent message. The lyrics are timeless and contain messages that people will always need to hear.

Lyrics

You've got to get up every morning
With a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That you're beautiful, as you feel

Waiting at the station with a workday wind a-blowing
I've got nothing to do but watch the passers-by
Mirrored in their faces I see frustration growing
And they don't see it showing, why do I?

You've got to get up every morning
With a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That you're beautiful as you feel

I have often asked myself the reason for the sadness
In a world where tears are just a lullaby
If there's any answer, maybe love can end the madness
Maybe not, oh, but we can only try

You've got to get up every morning
With a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That you're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful as you feel
