Not just clean and crisp, all the time, every time, but she often recorded these tracks in one take, Superstar was a 'one-take'. Unbelievable talent.
I loved them. It broke my heart when she died. She was never overweight, and yet the media kept saying she needed to lose weight. She ended up dying from anorexia.
She was famous for doing many songs in one take.
Yes it was covered by the late great Luther Vandross❤️
Actually 34 different artists covered it including Roberta Flack in 2021.
I never knew that - now I'm going to have to go search for his version!
Leon Russell, one of the writers, and Rita Coolidge did a duet.
Written and performed originally by Leon Russel.
@@maxwellroxy3184 A brilliant writer.
She was insanely talented and I truly believe no one has come close.
Her death was such a tragedy.
I still miss her 😢 RIP Karen 🙏🙏🙏
Not ONE
She was an awesome drummer also❤
Have you heard of Tori Holub? She sounds eerily similar.
Every time I hear her singing , I feel happy and at the same time sad, happy to hear her beautiful voice and sad knowing her tragic story of how she died. Carpenters are awesome.
weird ain't it?
Your reaction is fantastic and you're absolutely right and Karen Carpenter the number one female vocalist of all time in my opinion rest in peace Karen Carpenter
One of the greatest singers of all time
Early mid 70s. This was my youth. Can sing almost every song. Remember, this was before auto tune, so that is her voice. Look for some videos with her vocals isolated for a true treat. Just no other voice like hers and I was crushed when I heard she died. I was on break working my teller job when they broke in to announce it on the radio on a Saturday morning. Just such a loss. Karen and Richard were so incredibly talented. Richard has carried on. Thankfully, they had so much tape with Karen’s voice. Those tight harmonies were Richard and Karen dubbed and redubbed until you had a choir. I’ll never tire of her voice. Thanks for this memory! ❤️
Luther did an awesome job with this. He slowed it down. But what can I say…..Karen Carpenter♥️
He was a HUGE fan of Karen Carpenter's voice and recorded it as a homage to her. HE along with the actual writers of the song, always stated her version is the staple and greatest version..
I just turned 70 and this was in the 70s
I remember all too well age68 here love these reaction vids re p when we show them our music! THIS SONG IS ORIGINAL Luther Vandross redid it years later
Her brother Richard was an amazing composer, arranger, and pianist. Their blend and overdubbing were awesome together! Listen to 'Close to You' 'On Top of the World' 'Rainy Days and Mondays'
Props to the amazing songwriter, Leon Russell.
The Carpenters were popular when I was a young girl. I still enjoy listening to her sing and the music that showcases her lovely voice.
Crisp voice and no auto tune. Just the best. Karen is also a top female drummer ever.
Not only a phenomenal singer, but plays the drums exceptionally as well. There’s some videos on here showing playing her drums. I remembered the day she died. I just couldn’t believe it. She was my favorite singer back when I was in high school. ❤
None of the Carpenters songs are bad. She always had such a unique voice. Bless her heart she passed away in her 30's. She suffered from Anorexia I think but actually died from a heart attack brought on by it.
You ought to listen to their songs Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft. & Please Mr. Postman.
This is one of the most covered songs of its era. Hundreds of singers covered it.
Possibly the most pure pop vocalist ever, the difference between her live recording and the studio versions are almost non existant, she was an amazing talent especially considering she really wan 6:20 ted to be the drummer, which she equally excelled at, thanks to her brother Richard we were and are bless with this amazing voice! I was crushed when I her of her passing and am still moved everytime I hear her voice. God bless Karen Carpenter, may heaven enjoy her for eternity!
I’ve watched a number of reaction videos of The Carpenters Superstar. Yours is truly a reaction video. I love seeing a guy’s POV in this group/song.
Saw them in New Orleans in 1973. Karen died 10 years later, so sad. They were incredible.
We've only just begun, Close to you, and many others. She had a phenomenal voice and left this world way too soon.
It's easier to list her bad songs. Here they are:
One of my favorite Carpenter song. Such a talent gone to soon. Great reaction!
Karen had such a beautiful low voice. So smooth and low.
Wonderful to see a handsome young man appreciate the Magic of Carpenters. She looked especially lovely here. 🩷🩷🩷
カーペンターズの反応ありがとう😊日本でもカーペンターズは人気でしたよ。私は今70歳、私の青春の１ページ❤
She was an excellent drummer.
Karen has a beautiful voice, but considered herself to be a drummer in her heart. Check out her drum solo video
The Mother of all Rabbit Holes.
She was a drummer. That was her main talent. She just happens to be a great singer as well! Richard, her brother, asked her once to cover the voice for a song they wanted to record. She blew the socks off everyone in the recording studio. At first she used to sing while playing the drums. She felt safe behind them. She was only 5'4" and very shy. But later her voice took over.😊 Most likely the drums you hear are her playing them on a separate track. This was a common practice when recording. She was very particular about the percussion in her songs.
This is an example of her talent with the drums.

Enjoy!
Another one to listen to is Bless The Beasts and the Children 😢
One of my favorites too.
One of the winners of American idol won with this very song. I forgot his name but he sang it very well. But no one could match the perfect and rich and sorrowful voice of Karen carpenter. And her brother arranged these songs so pristinely. He is a very exceptionally gifted musician with a good voice as well. But her voice is unmatched. This is probably my fav or her songs. This and Solitaire.
It is Karens voice that made the Carpenters so good...never forget that!
I love to listen to their Christmas album in the season to this day. Her voice is so pure in tone, it makes the songs magical.
You don't wanna be Karen Carpenter's 'Superstar' (released in 1971). Karen died much too soon (in 1983 at 32 years old). May she rest in peace.
Luther Vandross did a cover of this the year Karen passed in tribute and his was well known so you may have heard it.
Early 70's and she was only in her early 20's when she had this hit!
The voice of an angel.
Luther did it more recently than she did. Greatness following greatness. A big thank you and RIP to them both.
There are many more Carpenters songs for you to enjoy. Check out their major hits Close to You, We've Only Just Begun, Yesterday Once More, Rainy Days and Mondays, Goodbye to Love, Hurting Each Other, For All We Know, and All You Get From Love Is A Love Song
"We've Only Just Begun"... that was THE "Wedding Song" of the 70's.
Grew up listening to the Carpenters from my dad playing their music. Loved Karen’s voice ❤
This is actually a cover. The song was originally recorded by the couple who wrote it, even though the song is most famous for the Carpenter's version. Luther Vandross also covered it.
By the way Jaren died young from complications of Anorexia Voice was a gift!
Yes AB, you are a superstar. ❤❤❤❤❤
There's only one Karen Carpenter what a beautiful voice ❤
Loved the carpenters
Review ‘em all! You really can’t go wrong. Karen was the GOAT!!!
Carpenters are real ....thank you for taking the time to hear hee.
Beautiful Voice. This group was extremely popular and I owned many of their albums. She died way too soon.
This song was written by the Late Great Leon Russell. You must do Lady Blue
Luther Vandross sang it later. Here are the writers:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superstar_(Delaney_and_Bonnie_song)
I checked the Comments and nobody mentioned it but this song was used in the movie "Tommy Boy". It was a driving scene with Farley and David Spade. Epic scene and Epic song!!!
To answer your question, Luther Vandross put out his great version of this song back in 1983.
Oh wow taking me back. KAREN had a voice from the Creator
There have a been a few covers of this song! But no one does it like Karen. Her voice was so distinct and warm and buttery.
Many artists have covered this song, it’s a classic. Men & women both.
I remember listening to every album, watching every appearance and loving my fellow “Karen” (before the name became what it is now). I was only a kid and her voice was pure magic, I wanted to be just like her. What’s heartbreaking now is knowing that all the beauty of her voice, presence and person brought her no happiness and killed her by her early 30’s. She was extremely shy, didn’t think she was attractive and very sensitive as she’d been bullied (I can relate to that). She did love playing the drums and agreed to help her brother’s band with that only. It was out of the spotlight. Unfortunately Richard wrote amazing songs but his voice was only ok and none of the others had a talent like hers. Richard and her mother (especially her mother) pushed her until she agreed to sing and once people heard her there was no going back. She still might have been ok if they could have just recorded but it was the live shows and tv appearances that doomed her. She dreaded each one and was physically sick before every performance, likely where the bulimia grew from. Then the professional bullies took over, calling her chubby (she was never chubby) and constant calling her plain, unattractive and every ugly. Sadly she believed it all.
Angelic😊
Karen was awesome. They should not have taken her away from behind her drums.
Many great singers and she is on top!
The late great Luther Vandross did a magnificent cover of "Superstar".
Luther recorded his version 13yrs after this one. the year Karen died 1983
WOW...
Her voice reminds me of my childhood
A great artist who unfortunately left us way too young. She was only 32, but her songs will be with us forever.
Her voice was awesome. I loved the chorus in the movie Tommy Boy. It was hilarious
That movie is how I learned about this song.
Stop. I love Karen. Thank you 🩵. Ps look her up on the drums
Love it! 🎉
Luther Vandross did a cover of this.....really good too
Luther Vandrosss did a cover of this song. Karen was my idol! Loved her voice! Carpenter's Christmas alhum is superlative!
Try Carpenters Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft please
Yes, I think it was Luther Vandross who also had a hit with his recording of Superstar. He was a fan of Karen Carpenter.
They were popular in the early to mid 70s
So amazing!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
Luther Vandross did his cover in the 80’s. This song was 1971. Richard Carpenter did all the orchestration. Luther mixed it up in his style. Ruben Studdard covered Luther’s version to win American Idol season 2. I’m going to let the others suggest another Carpenters song. I’m going to suggest a Carpenters song cover! Yup, James Wilkas f. Tori Holub recreated the classic Carpenters song We’ve Only Just Begun. Tori is 20 the same again as Karen was in 1970 when she recorded her version. In Late April, Tori was one of 8 invited singers at the Carpenters 55th Anniversary Celebration. So she got the cred. She also got the voice. I hope you consider this a viable option, in keeping with a Carpenters style. They honored Karen by releasing the cover on March 2, 2024, Karen’s birthday in heaven.

It may sound familiar to you because of Luther Vandross' 1983 cover, which is also wonderful. But Usher's version is this same song, too; it was actually part of a tribute album honoring Luther Vandross.
Bonnie Bremlett did the song but it was called Groupie
You are a superstar!! Karen’s life was so sad behind the scenes. 🥺
Have you yet heard the cover of Ticket To Ride from the Beatles by the Carpenters or their cover of Desperado by the Eagles? Two fantastic covers😮. For best audio quality, please pick a lyric video over the music video, which is very bad audio quality for the time.
Came to get my daily fix 😂
The carpenter's version of that song is a cover.Yes, they changed it up, but they weren't the first to have that song.I think maybe it was a beatle song.Originally don't quote me on that but I think maybe the beatles did it first.
On Top of the World, Rainy Days and Mondays, Close to You and so many more. Please react to them
Luther Vandross ❤️
Karen definitely has a beautiful voice, the Carpenters definitely have a unique and well known sound! They were quite famous!❤❤
Great reaction as always AB!!❤
Yes Luther Vandross did a soulful cover
try "only yesterday" , "this masqurade" " a song for you"
1971
This was 1971.
Leon Russell wrote this song.
1971 if I recall...
Yes this is from the 1970s and you can thank her musically gifted brother Richard for the arrangements,
keyboards, and background vocals.
But it is Karens voice that is what made the Carpenters so fantastic!
@@dennislalka7965 That's true, but if you've heard her solo album, you can definitely hear how much better she sounded when Richard did the vocal arrangements, backgrounds, and keyboards. He also chose her songs and kept her voice "in the basement" (where the money is)....low notes are so soothing!
@@carolhesterberg7526 Where would Richard Carpenter be without Karen. No where Karens was so talented best females voice ever and a great drummer...Richard was good...Karen was out of this world talented!
@@carolhesterberg7526 No way no how...her brother is great...but this woman Karen Carpenter was on another level and a great drummer also.. she was the real deal...best female voice ever!
Luther Vandross did a cover of this song!
Luther vandross did a remake of this song he loved her voice so much so you are right about hearing this before
Sonic Youth did a cover of this
OMG, this is my first time watching you, and in the first 10 seconds, I ❤you.😂 Your first sentence was so fast I was like "wow, this is fun." If you want to hear something really gooood, check out "Cook with Fire" and "Sing Child" by Heart.
Have you listened to rainy days and Mondays because that’s a good one I love that one Carpenters
Was redone by Luther vandross
I believe Luther Vandross did his version of this song in tribute to Karen.
Yes Luther Vandross remade it in the 90’s
Roberta Flack did a version and then Luther Vandross
She probably did it in one take😮
Can you do a country request by Bailey Zimmerman called war zone. It's awesome and listen for the banjo
