Superstar was never just a song — it was the echo of every heart that ever loved from afar. Karen Carpenter’s voice didn’t simply sing it; she bled it — fragile, aching, carved out of silence with a truth few dare to speak.

At one verse, Neil stepped back, letting the child sing alone as thousands wept and sang along. Smiling through tears, Neil whispered, “I began this song fifty years ago. Tonight, he finished it.” Legacy lived on.
