There will be people out there who firmly believe that songs by The Carpenters are 100% off-limits where cover versions are concerned. That's complete nonsense, obviously. Any song, by any artist, is fair game - absolutely nothing is sacred. When it comes to tackling 'Superstar', I can't think of a more suitable act than Tennis, consistent providers of quality adult pop. This is so respectful to the original and classy as hell from start to finish. It's almost angelic in places. It's really all rather beautiful. If you haven't already spent some time getting to know this band, you definitely should. Track Link: https://youtu.be/TlCseH7coio

Agree, no song is off limits as long as the cover is good, I do like how they have given an early 80s electro feel to this.
