the song "superstar" was released in 1971 and reached #2 on the charts and became one of the carpenters best known hits as they were actually the top u.s. hitmakers of the 1970's.. legend has it she recorded this song on one take and reading the lyrics off a napkin! incredible !!and SHE WAS ONLY 21 YEARS OLD AT THE TIME! OTHERWORLDLY!!...

Karen was the “Angel” that sang out of God’s Light! Karen Carpenter IMO is period “The best female vocalist “ EVER! Can’t be touch. Let’s not forget her genius brother Richard Carpenter producer, composer, musician extraordinary! Her voice is like you said has tears in the notes, and haunting. No one can translate like Karen

Karen's voice is without equal. And don't apologize if you can seem to pin down what exactly it is that makes it so exceptional -- none of us can. That's why we just say she had the voice of an angel. It's like the sun on a bright autumn day with the smell of smoke drifting through the trees. Her voice is at once smooth and warm, but with an underlying melancholy that stops you in your tracks.

The depth and richness of her vocal still makes me tear up, and I’ve heard this song a billion times.... one of my favorite songs. Interesting background to the song, and you picked up on it. Originally written by Leon Russell, and Bonnie Bramlett, released as “Groupie(Superstar)”, the Delaney & Bonnie version, is very soulful, and from the perspective of an experienced woman. The Carpenters version changed the line “ I can hardly wait to sleep with you again”, to “be with you again”. Rita Coolidge also does a lovely version. Luther Vandross does one too, but it’s too busy for my taste.

Written by Leon Russell and Bonnie Bramlett and recorded a couple of times before The Carpenters covered it. Was originally supposed to be called "Groupie". About a girl who had a one night stand with her favorite musician. He told her he loved her. He moved on to play in another city. She can't get him out of her head. He isn't coming back. She is heartbroken and in denial and writes him a letter and thinks that it will convince him to come back soon, but he doesn't feel the same way. She is heartbroken and is starting to realize that she is only fooling herself, and she probably will never see him again. A real tearjerker of a song, and a tremendous vocal performance. If you only had one song to prove that Karen Carpenter is the G.O.A.T., then this would be it!

That’s exactly what the song is about! Nice interpretation! Her brother Richard (on keys) was the musician of the family originally and Karen tagged along, only playing drums in his jazz trio at first when she was 16. Like most, he was shopping around for a record deal but they weren’t interested in instrumentalists and wanted vocal groups. After throwing something together quickly THAT VOICE just came out after being hidden for so long. Can you imagine? She did not enjoy being the center of attention at first, especially as they took her from behind the drums and she was standing out front. She always thought of herself as drummer first, singer 2nd. Check out the videos on here of her tearing it up in her drum solos! Amazing 😻
