This is the entry of the “Music Challenge – 7 favorite songs” by @kona. Thanks for the nomination by @ygern.

In this challenge, you have to share your 7 favorite songs. And my first favorite song is Carpenters's Yesterday Once More.

Accidentally listened to this song when I was working in the Casino back in 2009. I know this song was released in 1973, how late I was to discover classic song like this one. There was a live performance on the mini stage in the middle of the casino, and I was dealing the Roulette game as usual.

The moment the music started, I was immediately attracted. Could not fully focus on my job but pay a big portion of my attention to enjoy the wonderful rhythm of it. After that shift, I quickly search for this song, download it(illegally, sorry), and loop it all day long.

This was the song that leads me to others great songs by Carpenter as well. Karen Carpenter had the unique tone of voice and that makes her the best to sing this song ever, second to none even after bunches of reproduction by others. This song is simply made for her.

《昨日重现》是当时我在赌场做荷官时无意听到的一首歌，由现场的小乐队所演唱。前奏一响起就完全被吸引了，导致那几分钟有点无心工作。下班后，赶紧找出了这首歌，然后下载（不好意思，非法的）。当天记得就是无限 loop 了。Karen Carpenter 的独特声线简直就是为此歌而生，绝配！
