I get the feeling I would like to. I like a lot of bands/songs with the word star in them for some reason.

Haha!

They remind me a little of Metric for some reason. But still different.

I find myself increasingly adoring them.

They're those tiny lil balls of light in the sky, oh so perty.

Yes they are! 10 points for Erica!

Consequently, there's also a band called "Stars" too. They must be pretty obscure given that their lyrics can't be found via google. Rawr!

woot! i get 10 points! and i love how you always use my husbands icon on me.

They seem pretty cool.

Only for you.

I like them a lot.

Montreal-based indie pop band; beloved by indietorrents; covered The Smiths; encourages people to set themselves on fire; somehow affiliated (or at least frequently mentioned to me along) with Metric, Feist, Broken Social Scene (I don't really know how that circle works); playing in Central Park this summer with Death Cab For Cutie and The Decemberists and people on my friendslist won't shut up about it, which makes me insane because I can't go.

But I think there's another band called Stars from ages back. If that's the one you're talking about, then I have no information.

Oh, yeah, and lyrics for them do exist. But it's not a complete listing - I believe they're missing the debut album. And in the process of trying to figure out the difference between "A Lot of Litt Lies..." EP and Nightsongs LP, I discovered that Emily Haines did vocals for "Going, Going, Gone"!

I'll have to find that song now!

I ordered their Set Yourself on Fire album after downloading half the songs from it and deciding I liked it, along with the lyrics. And yey for lyrics! I can link people much easier to them now!

We're thinking of the same band. Which Smiths song did they cover? AND YES. I REMEMBER THAT SONG! You're Ex-Lover is Dead, right? And I definitely see the corolation between Stars and Metric. I don't listen enough to Feist and Broken Social Scene to decide about them though. And what time in the summer? Cause I may end up there again sometime in August.
