[60s] Popular Western Music Ranking [By Generation] (81–90)

SuperstarCarpenters81rank/position

Speaking of the Carpenters, their music is known for its gentle, uplifting feel, but some of their songs exude a certain sensuality.

Among those, the one I especially recommend is “Superstar.” While the chorus is set in a major key, the other sections are in a minor key, resulting in a sexy melody imbued with wistfulness throughout.

As for the vocal line, it uses a scale found in Japanese kayōkyoku (popular songs), making it one of the easiest Carpenters’ songs to sing.
