________________________
Superstar
Songwriters: Leon Russell and Bonnie Bramlett
Long ago and oh so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here
It's just the radio
[Chorus:]
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby, I love you I really do
Loneliness is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again
What to say to make you come again
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar

♫ You Really Got A Hold On Me ♫ (Redux)
I didn’t think I would do a music post tonight, since the cat, Tiger Lily, broke my @#$% headphones earlier! She somehow managed to get tangled in the wire that goes from the phones to my laptop and snapped the headphones right in two! But then, I figured out that they still work … they just won’t sit on my head, so I have to hold each ear piece up to the respective ears, but in a pinch ……

"Superstar" is a song written by Bonnie Bramlett and Leon Russell in 1969, performed by various artists but by far the most popular version was recorded by the Carpenters in February 1971.
Rita Coolidge came up with the original song idea, based on observing the relationships of female groupies with rock stars in the late 1960s; in its first recorded incarnation, the song was called "Groupie (Superstar)" by Delaney & Bonnie.
Richard Carpenter became aware of the song after watching Bette Midler sing it on the February 15, 1971 edition of The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and quickly obtained a recording to play for his sister Karen. Intrigued, they both thought they could put a new spin on it; Because the original subject matter of the song was more risqué than was typical for them, Richard changed a lyric in the second verse from "And I can hardly wait/To sleep with you again" to the less suggestive "And I can hardly wait/To be with you again." Karen was very moved by the idea and mood of the song, and laid down her haunting vocals in a single take.
Her version of the song was widely praised for its intensity and emotional nature. The duo decided to include it in their next album Carpenters. The single quickly climbed the charts to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US but was unable to dislodge Rod Stewart's "Maggie May" from the top spot.
