In this video, I react for the first time to Carpenters performing “Superstar”. I analyze Karen Carpenter's amazing performance, explain and demonstrate her vocal techniques and I'll tell you what I think made it so great. The Carpenters are arguably the most classy band ever to grace the earth, spinning musical silk. I am SO happy I got to react and analyse this for you. Daphne loves their music, it makes her relax!

[kenglasson]

Yes i think this is the best reaction to this song EVER. Totally gets the greatness of Karen. Please like if you agree.

[iutchube]

Her voice is one of the most beautiful sounds ever produced on this planet.

[victorjohnson]

The keyboard player is her brother Richard Carpenter. He also does the music arrangement, and sings backup.

[CoreyWickramasekera]

Can't deny KAREN CARPENTER as one of the BEST FEMALE

[zeuso.]

Wow Lolli, take a bow.
Hearing Karen's warm voice coming out of your beautiful face was pleasantly shocking and made me a bit teary eyed.

[michaelhwenig]

Amazingly Karen sang this song in one take. Karen sang way beyond her young 21 year old age. Hauntingly beautiful, etheric. and timeless! ❤

[mr.puckerie]

Seriously, never been more wow'd with Lolli's vocal prowess than in this video.
The way she takes on Karen Carpenter so nonchalantly... color me way impressed

[kanchoo]

This is why lolli is my favorite reactor/coach. Not only can she deconstruct and explain all the techniques, but actually execute and sing. Lolli are you secretly a lyrebird or something? How can you sing like literally any singer. Not close, exactly! Exact same vibrato and everything. It's uncanny.

[nederlanditism]

Nobody's mentioned that she was a great drummer, a great singing drummer

[Carrinthe]

I'm a metalhead but I've always enjoyed the Carpenters. Karen has such an incredible voice and when I hear her I always get a little sad realising what an enormous talented and beautiful person we lost in 1983. Anorexia is such a terrible desease.
Btw, you did an amazing Karen Carpenter impression, impressive!

[quigleyd]

Lolli, you never cease to amaze me with your ability to duplicate the sound of the people you review. You did an almost perfect impression of Karen. Your joy always blesses me.

[auralfixxation]

Her voice is one of the best, natural voices in music history. Just stunning.

[FavoriteMovieDate]

Richard is only lately getting the attention he deserved as a genius arranger, backup singer (the harmonies with Karen), and musician that supported his sister’s incomparable voice and really made their sound. Karen was a miracle but so was Richard. So nice you recognized it immediately.

[michaelhwenig]

Karen Carpenter never had any formal vocal lessons. Truly a God given talent. Her brother was a masterful pianist, lyricist and composer. He specifically structured songs to fit Karen's angelic pitch perfect voice.

[Andrew-xnlt]

So glad you have chosen the Carpenters. She has a beautiful voice. Such a tragedy 😢

[MiaMidol]

I have waited 50 years for your analysis and I just hope those that criticised the Carpenters back then watch and realise just how little they know. This was a feast of educational commentary performed in such a humble manner. I have never heard anyone do what they did since and sadly we lost their partnership far too early which denied us a plethora of emotive entertainment. Thank you so much for enlightening us, you truly are a star.

[steverakes]

The greatest female voice to ever grace the planet. Her voice healed millions of hearts and souls before she was called back to heaven.

[A-whiter-shade-of-pale]

This song was mastered in 1971 with their band providing the instruments BUT Richard took this master and 19 others to England in 2018. He rerecorded with Karens voice and released "Carpenters with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra" December 7, 2018 35 years after Karen died. Richard Carpenter served as the album's producer, arranger and conductor.

[reedhaley]

Damn Lolli, you recreate the voice nuances of one of the greatest pop singer in history like it is no big deal. You could do a masterful cover of this. Nobody else would dare.

[admseraph]

This is why the Carpenters were so immensely popular for so long. Richard's songwriting and arranging along with his sister's amazing voice and style were unique and unforgettable. They gave us so much beautiful and timeless music, that can take us back to the same memories and feelings as when we first heard them. RIP Karen.😪
