Star

In a corner far out in space and time
Comet20 brushes Golden Arrow49
Arrow turns around, cries out, .Where you goin'?
There.s a place you gotta be tonight!.
I can.t come with you, I gotta go
I.m needed somewhere else and I don.t want to keep .em waiting, so.
Arrow.s not turned down, goes to a space party
Takes Comet20 to the third Tareus Galaxy
Little satellites offer food and drink
Arrow.s looking for his honeymoon
I can.t be here, it.s not where I belong
I tell you it's alright but for this sparkling deep blue sea of eyes
Hi, I.m Radi8, come on turn your solar panel to the sun
I.m Radi8, come on let.s go and have some fun
Here they come, here they come, here they come, here they come
Welcome to this place, to the start of a race for a lonely heart
Take a look around and listen to the sound of this space guitar
We.re moving and we.re grooving, we.re trembling but we.re proving we.ll make it far
The bash is open here at the Andromedean Bar
I gotta go, I gotta go, I.m sorry but I gotta go
Hey you, what you doin.
You can.t be serious
To miss this one time
Must be delirious
Everybody.d sell their soul to get in here and have a go
I take you along and you just throw it all away, hey
It.s not the place to be for me tonight
I.m off again but thank you for the ride
You turn the light to your own rhythm, I.m jumping through the solar systems
Tell Radi8 I.m sure it woulda been a great time
In a corner surrounded by the endless black I finally feel I.m right on track
And the blue orb is flecked with a mist of white
Down there.s a little girl looking up and pointing at me
And her smiling face with the twinkle in her eye is the last thing I.ll ever see
Make a wish

Das vermutlich komplexeste und vielleicht auch tiefgründigste Lied auf DIFFERENT. Mehrere Tempowechsel, Orchesterpassagen ungerade Taktstrukturen, zusammengehalten von der Geschichte dreier Charaktere, die in diesem Weltraum Märchen nach ihrer Bestimmung suchen. Jeder Charakter hat dabei sein eigenes musikalisches Thema, das in abgewandelter Form über das Lied hinweg ausdrückt, wer gerade spricht.
Obwohl nicht von Anfang an klar war, dass Star einen Platz auf dem Album finden würde, waren wir letztlich sehr froh, dass diese Idee nicht in irgendeiner Lade verstaubt ist.
