I spend pretty much all of my money on music. I'm dressed in rags at this very moment. So in other words I have a lot of music and of everything I have bought, downloaded, seen live, seen on tv, and heard, I would have to say that this cd is one of the best ever.
Stars present something unbelievably delicate, enchanting, hauntingly beautiful. It will draw you in and distract you in the most pleasant way. Every single song is crafted at a first listen, efortlessly, but with repeated exposure it would seem each tune is the result of stringent artistic focus.
But don't listen to all this. Just buy it.
You will love it and the songs will be stuck in your head for longer than you could ever imagine.
And you will be happy with this.

"Thank-you for dreaming with us" ......... That is what it says in the albums liner notes and all I can say in response is "MY PLEASURE!" What a beautiful CD this is.
What I really like about these songs is that they are so accessible the first time you hear them but each time you listen you hear new things that add to the depth of each song. And the mood that these songs put you in...pure bliss! The lyrics also seem simple at first but after a while when you get the whole context of the song, the words are deep. "You get back on the latest flight to paradise, I found out from a note taped to the door. I think I saw your airplane in the sky tonight, through my window lying on the kitchen floor."
I `discovered' this group while reading through the nominations for the Juno awards. They lost out to Buck 65 but hey..at least they were nominated and I tip my hat to the Junos for recognizing these guys. I find them to be a little similar to The Postal Service with the guy girl word play and the new wave-ish sound, although their sound is more ambient synth-pop than electronica.
Standout tracks are ELEVATOR LOVE LETTER, HEART, ROMANTIC COMEDY, LOOK UP, LIFE EFFECT. Stars HEART is definitely tops for 2004 so far.

I have not been so excited about a band for years. I found Stars on www.kcrw.org giving two amazing live performances and bought Heart. I was surprised, the CD is very produced in contrast to their live performaces. This difference proves them right, they are excellent in the studio and amazing live. I was fortunate to see a show in Hoboken earlier this month. Stars accomplishment is a unique and affecting voice that encapsulates many, many post-punk-pop-trip-hop influences of the 80s and 90s. They even dared to cover 'This Charming Man' on the 'Nightsongs' CD and to my surprise it WORKS. I spoke with Amy and Evan at the show and they were lovely. Stars are the real thing,incredible musicians that have found a voice for themselves that is moving music forward. Go for the ride, it's gorgeous and complicated and fully realized.

Bright, dreamy electronic synth pop
Stars sophomore album is a pure delight. Its dreamy synth pop hooks leisurely drift you into a daydreaming twilight. This is by far one of their best albums. Read more

I cannot believe all the time I wasted not listening to this album
How is it that music this good, this beautiful, this well written, this well sung, this poignant on so many levels, escaped my attention for most than 5 years? Read more

Much better
I think this is the best c-d they have put out. The previous one I would compare to any John Denver or Johnny Cash song; once you've heard one, you've heard them all. Read more

Acquired taste CD. Somewhat disappointing.
Above average with some strong weaknesses. This CD has a lot of haphazardly-written, awkward lyrics (Heart, Death to Death) that just don't work with the music-- but I suppose this... Read more

Some very good rock-based pop that has two GREAT songs! - only for pop...
Stars is another guilty pleasure pop band - you'll either love it or hate it. They have two saving graces - female vocalist Amy Millan (who is just amazing) and two hitworthy songs... Read more
