Do You Know What We Know?
Said the DJ on the radio
Listen to what I play
Ringing high and then soft and low
Listen to what I play
A sweet love song, gentle as the breeze
And as clear as a bell when it rings
Is how Vikki Carr sounds when she sings
Said the "Special People" to the music store
Do you know what we know
We will buy her music evermore
So bring it here and we'll go
We buy her songs, the new ones and the old
Every CD recorded and sold,
We will make them go platinum and gold
Spread the news to the people everywhere
Listen to what we say
Vikki's gonna tour here and there
Maybe even your way
The songs ring out, filling up the night
From where Vikki stands in the light
And her star is still shining bright!
The "Scoop" Sisters,
Mary & Karen

Oh how I wish
I had magical power
for if I did
in less than an hour...
This whole world would see
just who was the best
All would know
from the North, South, East, to West
On every billboard
her picture would appear
THE PERFECT SINGER
with a heart so sweet and dear
On the cover of every
newspaper and magazine
the headline would read
THE ULTIMATE SINGING QUEEN
On every radio station
her songs would endlessly play
Every single minute
of every single day
Then I would gather up all of the clouds
'round and 'round they would fly
until they perfectly formed
her portrait in the sky
Then at night
I would take every star
The biggest and brightest
and write out her name - VIKKI CARR
Across the universe
no one would miss
The name that so many
associate with joy and bliss
But that's not all
For in the sky there would be
a huge invisible speaker
that no one could see
But drifting out
loud, clear, and strong
all around
would be that song
For the word ETERNITY
means forever and ever
and to live with out Vikki
I could never
For all that you have brought into my life
and continue to bring
not only with my voice
but with my heart I'll always sing
My teacher and inspiration
you will always be
In my heart
"the rest of Eternity"
Stephanie Perrigo - Monterey, CA

"It Must Be Her!"
Emotions stir
As her voice takes flight
Vikki's music moves our souls
Each performance a delight
Our Diva of music
Has captured us all
To hear her our privilege
To see her our goal
Her grace always lures us
This lady of song
Her voice is an instrument
Her soul carries on
Yes Vikki, we love you
And all these years through
Each song something special
Creating memories of you
You have touched us with your beauty
You have touched us with song
We are yours now and forever
To you we will always be drawn

Whenever my heart is heavy
It won't stay that way for long
For you see, all I have to do
Is put on a beautiful Vikki Carr song.
She is my bluebird of happiness
My shelter from the storm
When I hear her beautiful voice,
Once again I fell safe and warm
You are "One Hell Of A Woman"
An angel from on high by the name of Vikki Carr
Who will always be loved and cherished
No matter where You are.
Kathryn Robinson - Fort Worth, TX

CAN'T TAKE MY EARS OFF HER
When I drive home late at night,
And I feel a little uptight,
I put a tape on in my car,
And listen to some Vikki Carr.
Vikki Carr, Vikki Carr,
My cares away you cast,
Vikki Carr, Vikki Carr,
You're good for my heart.
I like the way Vikki sings,
O such joy she brings,
No one sings with such emotion,
Vikki you're No. 1.
Vikki Carr, Vikki Carr,
You are a superstar,
Vikki Carr, Vikki Carr,
No wonder you've come so far.
Vikki's voice is so sweet,
Vikki makes me feel complete,
With happiness I'm replete,
Vikki is so lively.
Vikki Carr, Vikki Carr,
You sing with lots of power,
Vikki Carr, Vikki Carr,
Above other singers you tower.
Beautiful in voice and face,
The best singer in the human race,
She has so much grace,
Vikki you are really ace.
Vikki Carr, Vikki Carr,
You sing with such fervor,
Vikki Carr, Vikki Carr,
You are the prime diva.
Joe Sampson - Bonbeach, Vic., Australia
