Believe it or not, the original of "Superstar" isn't by Carpenters. Originally recorded by Delaney and Bonnie. It's on KZbin and much more blue-eyed bluesy compared to Carpenters' passionate, orchestrated version/arrangement.

About seven years ago I went to LA for the sole purpose of seeing a Pearl Jam & Sonic Youth show. The night before that, some friends and I went to a little dive karaoke bar to kill some time, and Kim and Thurston were there. Just singing karaoke, like no big deal. I don't think anyone else there even knew what they were being treated to. It was strange to see them play to a room of people who barely mustered up the strength to do a courtesy applause one night, then the next seeing thousands of people screaming at every little thing they did. But maybe that's what they liked about the bar - Being treated normally. Ahh, so cool. :)

Kim (and Sonic Youth) as a band are huge fans of the Carpenters - Karen in particular. I think they see parallels between themselves and her personally. Having success but not necessarily wanting it. Being "dressed up" by the music industry and expected only to look and sound a certain way and play the instruments they were told to play the way they were told to play them... It's sad to think that everything but Karen Carpenter killed Karen Carpenter.

A beautiful cover of a beautiful song, by a beautiful band. All the different versions of "Superstar" are good - the Carpenters' (of course!), Rita Coolidge's (maybe the best), Delaney and Bonnie's - but Sonic Youth's version certainly stands out. You can feel the melancholy in Thurston Moore's voice, and you can imagine he's mourning Karen as he sings. He's certainly honoring her; that's the whole point of the song.
@InstantLeprosy6 жыл бұрын
YES! I had heard that of all the songs on "If I were a Carpenter", that Richard Carpenter hated this version. I think he's nuts. It is obvious Sonic Youth LOVES the Carpenters. They treated this song with the utmost in respect and even gave a tip of the hat to Karen's love for the drums by having Kim Gordon playing drums at times during the video. And you really hit the nail on the head about the melancholy in Thurston's voice - THAT makes the song like no other version ever. This is an incredibly touching tribute to the Carpenters.

I think I can relate a lot to her and how she had a lack of self confidence in her abilities, and her story just breaks my heart. She seemed like such a lovely person, and even though she passed away long before I was even born I still feel such sadness when I hear the original Superstar.

I was always a Sonic fan. I remember hearing this song for the first time and it brought a tear to my eye. Hearing it now still does. Karen Carpenter would've loved it.

‘If I Were a Carpenter’ 7” box set is one of my fave things I will ever own. Each 45 has a photo sleeve of Karen and it gets more and more heartbreaking seeing her wither away. Love these bands paying tribute to this beautiful music. Karen deserved loving folks in her life. No one can top her vocals and the emotions she exuded. RIP to the ultimate queen.

The 90's were such a special time for music. It's so cool to see that Stoop Kid from 'Hey Arnold' finally left his Stoop to become the vocalist of Sonic Youth. Who's afraid now? Lol;

the mood and sound of this version is so close to what the song's about lyrically. it's about a stalker, and thurston moore's vocal is creepy as hell. i love it!

+Mary Wylde (Wyldewoman) yeah, after seeing their song for Karen, Tunic, i realise now that it was sung with love. I bought the book "Leaving the 20th Century Behind" so hopefully that will shed some light on their thought processes. Seems like Kim had a real hard-on for Karen. Did they ever meet?
@ziggyflinthawk9 жыл бұрын
+tuber00009 Definitely darkness. You've already stated that maybe insincerity is the wrong word and I'd agree. No he didn't meet Karen in real life (I don't believe) but if you google Kim Gordon open letter to Carpenter you'll see more about his thoughts towards her. PS Not sure if you know them but there are two new tracks by Lucid Rivers now available: First Howl & Medicate
