After so many years, this song still makes me want to be in my early 20s again and feel that hopelessness one feels in youth after an earth-devouring love is lost, but in a sort of beautiful and way, where you know it’s for the best and are at peace.
The worst part is that it's a lie. Live through this, and spend the rest of your life looking back because you have never felt anything that deeply since.
Sooo.. I'm a writer, and I was able to base a 188 paged novel off of this. That was two years ago, and it's changed so much that I forgot what it stemmed from. Thank you, Stars, because it is the best thing I've ever written.
This was my boyfriend's favourite song. He fell and hit his head which lead to his death. I can hear his voice singing each lyric. When we all said our final goodbye, we played this song and I held onto his feet hoping he'd wake up when he heard 'live through this, and you won't look back...' we watched his final breath to this. We were neighbours. We'd hope a fence to get to each other. The last time I saw him alive, we spent the night together, haha 'lazy lovins'. We sang 'Tribute' by Tenacious D while I got ready in the mirror together. I made breakfast and danced, he pulled me into his arms and told me to eat- knowing I was behind. I (ofc) was running late for my bus that morning. He unlocked his bike, tried to 'scare' me and proceeded to flag down that bus. I thanked and kissed him. He kissed me back and said 'I love you, and I'll catch you later kid' then gave me a love tap. I smiled and turned to him to savour that moment. The bus driver called him a nice boy, and I smiled and thought back to my parents. That's how they met. My mom was running late for school, my dad saw her then biked up to the bus and my mom got on... she fell for him in that moment and eventually crossed paths again. I spent NYE in Montreal, I couldn't get this song out of my head. I wished he was with me whenever I looked up to Pont Champlain. Our streets of parkdale, toronto are covered with ghosts. I never get to bike with him into heavy traffic or sit on his porch drinking a warm Turborg with a cigarette in hand. No one will ever get to hear his funny fuckin jokes. So this song reminds me of a lot. I miss him every day. I look at his collection of books. They haunt me like the notes of this song. Joshua Pamplin, I didn't get to love you long enough. I will always miss you and your profoundly poetic ways. Come visit me sometime? Please.
Sounds like a cool guy. I wish it weren't so sorrowful to revisit memories of loved ones. My grandpa just passed.. I grew up helping him harvest apples and now that he's gone, I think of him everytime I eat an apple (eating one right now😭) The things we associate with them are somewhat bazaar but comforting
This song didn’t resonate until I lost my first love to Suicide this August. Exactly a month after we reconnected. Moral: Please ask your loved ones if they’re ok. Even if they seem like they’re the best they’ve ever been
Weird, I have watched this video several times and just this once thought 'this reminds me of Eternal Sunshine'. Not only are the lyrics very apt (all that time you thought I was sad, I was just trying to remember your name) but also the shots of them lying on the ice together happens in the film too. I was about to go look up the soundtrack... Michel Gondry, who directed Eternal Sunshine, has made some amazing music videos (see Everlong by Foo Fighters) and would approve of this video too.
First heard this song when I was 18 from degrassi lol. Looked it up so fast and fell in love with this song. This was about 11 years ago. Turn 30 in a couple months. Decided to look this song up once again since all those years ago. Crazy how some songs can bring you right where you used to be in life in that certain time. Makes my heart heavy. Hope all of you who read this lives a happy and full life.
I heard this on Degrassi too. I graduated the same year as Manny, Emma and spinner so this was my grad song as well. I relate it to my first love from senior year in Las Vegas and now I still think of it when I hear this song. Thought I was the only one.
This is completely irrelevant and I've never even seen the show but I said "Degrassi" once to my dogs and they went nuts for some reason and it's just become a thing now. Anytime I want to rile them up I have the perfect word.
Man it's so excruciating how songs from the teenage/Young Adult days take an even deeper meaning now. Almost as if they were trying to warn us or something
When I was 16 years old I saw Stars live at the Cat's Cradle. It was profound, but it's not until now, eight years later, that these lyrics leave tingles on my skin. I stayed at a friend's house that night and I don't remember it a bit, probably because the very next day, my life would never be the same again. I was going through a dark time and was in a toxic relationship with a drug-addicted teenage boy. I had an Adderall prescription and he begged me to give him some. Being the insecure and codependent teenager that I was, I agreed. He sold them on the school bus. The next day I was in third-period math class chatting with my best friend and the assistant principal pulled me from class and nothing was ever the same. I never went back to math class. I never went back to that school. I was a straight-A student going to jail with a felony at 16 for distributing a controlled substance. I lost every single one of my friends and my first love. I was sure my life was over. I ended up going to a school for delinquents, which brought my life to another level of darkness that I never imagined possible, but still, I prevailed. I was sexually assaulted, date r*ped, but I felt lucky that I was able to graduate high school a year earlier at this school due to my credit amount. Then I got into college! A miracle considering my past. I thought I was beginning to turn the page, but then I developed a serious autoimmune disease from the stress of it all, causing me to gain a significant amount of weight and had to drop out of college. A year off at home and my friends were my mom's friends who took me into their crew (yes, it's weird). At the time, I wanted to die. I thought I must set myself on fire...looking back it's just a fleck on my porcelain skin. I lived through this and I won't look back. I left my tiny town, fell in real love, and started my own business a couple of years ago that's going really well. If you read this far, you might be going through the hardest time in your life, but I promise there will always be a silver lining. Beautiful things come from the darkest time. Love to you all.
Thank you for sharing your story…. Many of us go through dark times but not everyone prevails.. sharing your story will inspire some, give hope and strength to others. I wish you continued success ❤️
I always listen this song when my heart broken and it heals me a lot. I know everyone come to your life must have some meaning and teach you something. I won't regret I loved someone so madly but it is not work out anymore, Like this lyric said " I'm not sorry I met you. I'm not sorry it's over. I'm not sorry there is nothing to say" Thank you the one come to my life let me know I still can love someone and I deserved be loved too.
Same. I'm happily married and wouldn't change a thing. This song makes me think of the guy I thought I was going to marry when I was 20. I'm not sorry there's nothing to say.
I discovered this song back in 2005 and I absolutely loved it! Then somehow I forgot about it. 13 years later I went through an old music collection - and here I am. heart-wrenching, but in a nice way. :')
That's because this song was quite literally written for the Eternal Sunshine soundtrack. You're not alone in feeling that way, because that was the intention all along!
6 years ago, I was going through hell, and someone turned me on to this song. I'm in a far better place now, and I have to keep coming back to listen to it every November.
Heard this when it came out. I was younger but loved it. Years later in 2019, spotify randomly played it for me and I started crying on a train in another country because I knew my relationship was over. Lmao. How can a song be so sad but hopeful at the same time.
I was watching something and heard the voice that says "When there is nothing left to burn you must set yourself on fire" and it instantly made me want to listen to this song again. I love this album so much when I first heard this song it gave me the chills hearing it for the first time and those chills still happen. I mean such great lyrics, Stars are such a wonderful band. I would love to hear what everyone else thinks I think this album stands up.
There are so many beautiful things about this video - I love that each musician is lying on the floor (and as a musician, playing on the floor is hard af, so props) back to back or back to side. For some reason the trombone and french horn always strike me because the leg angles look so cool - This song is one of the only songs that I think accurate capture the reality of a break up where both sides think: "I was right, you were wrong, here's my side of the story - I did love you and I was vulnerable with you" - I love the duality of it almost feeling like a first date, a few of the shadoews holding hands during the ice skating to it feeling just so cold and lonely - The two singers capture SO WELL what it's like to stand right next to someone who used to be your world and now is your past - I WILL NEVER NOT CRACK UP AT THE FUCKING DRUMMER LMAO
I listened to this during my breakup with my first serious boyfriend in 2011. I remember that I cried heavily and won't stop doing so. By now, he is really dead as he died in 2020.
Guys, this is the kind of music that you have to do again! All the albuns until set yourself on fire are masterpieces! Please, don't let that kind of songs go away
I’ll never forget my twin flame, Lola. She passed in 2015. This was one of our songs. Always always always. I still need you. I feel you everywhere 🌌❤️
Simply the perfect breakup song. It's been 13 years since I first listened to this, gosh. It still gives me the chills. So great is real Art. So strong is the pain when you have to let her/him go. But to those that are in that dark place right now I say: there is always hope to move on, and be OK again. Just live through this, and you won't look back.
God. This song is still as beautiful-if not more-as the first time I listened to it. To say I'm transfixed would be an understatement, this song manages to engulf me every. single. time. It's such a beautiful piece, lyrically and musically.
Listened to this song on repeat in college daily. I have rediscovered it a dozen times since. Always brings back those same ol feelings. Some hearts never change.
Don't know this band but over the last 10 years this song has saved me multiple times and it was shown to me by the most amazing girl ever. And we just reconnected.... and I just broke up with my gf. Funny how life works. I doubt there's anything there but having her in my life means more to me than anything
Anyone else one of the 100 lucky people that saw Stars at the free MySpace Secret show in Vancouver at the Media Club 14 years ago? I remember being SO excited at 14 that it was all ages, I even skipped school so I could be first in line (and I was!). To this day it is the most intimate show I've ever been to. Oh how time passes.
I found this song this year and so much has happened my life fell apart but I rebuilt it and I can’t wait to come back here and tell everyone about the people I’ve loved and lost all over again
The last time I saw my ex husband I gave him a note that simply said “I’m not sorry I met you, I’m not sorry it’s over. I’m not sorry, there’s nothing to say. I’m not sorry. There’s nothing to say. -The Stars”
For years I listened to this song with the heartache of hoping to be able to live through it and not look back. Finally there, and love this song the same.
I wish I could be in a romantic relationship at least once in my life (if it lasts forever that’s the best of course). I’m 25 and still waiting for the right person who’ll respect and love me right to come along :’(
BRING THE PAYNE 75 idk man, I’ve shed many tears already. I still think it’s better to have loved and lost than to never have loved. At least you have memories of what it feels like...
This song will now forever remind me of not only falling in love with my best friend but also... also falling in love with Charlie... My sweet, sweet Charlie.
Stars deserves to be so much more well known!! Their music is amazing, in the complexity, the lyrics, and the sincerity in their songs. It makes me mad that they don't get more recognition haha.
I had forgotten about this song I first heard it in Daydream Nation and then I started rewatching Degrassi. They used it in the season 5 finale and man it was perfect!!! I love this song! I love the female singer!
I've always appreciated this song but once I was widowed at 35 with conflicted emotions about the 180° my life was taking it took on a whole new meaning. This is a beautiful song ❤
I miss this song so much, back then I met them when I was much much younger and honestly I’m so happy I did :”) This just gave me nostalgic feels and I really miss that feeling
I never thought I would ever want to go dancing with a girl, not into dancing. But I think I would go dancing with a girl if I got to pick the music. Starting with this song.
"I'm not sorry I met you, I'm not sorry it's over. I'm not sorry there's nothing to say" this. this. this. this song is too relatable
lmao like you've ever even touched a woman.
@@aleonne2148 does it make you feel better about yourself to go online and be mean for no reason? what do you gain from this? you genuinely confuse me
@@Apollo-it8ml three years after the original comment too lol
@@Apollo-it8ml dayum lol
I just wish it was a better song
After so many years, this song still makes me want to be in my early 20s again and feel that hopelessness one feels in youth after an earth-devouring love is lost, but in a sort of beautiful and way, where you know it’s for the best and are at peace.
Spot-freaking on.
Woah. Im not at all at peace. But I know it's for the best
Found the peace
@@danieljudin3950 same here, well done buddy.
The worst part is that it's a lie. Live through this, and spend the rest of your life looking back because you have never felt anything that deeply since.
this is THE perfect breakup song. "Live through this and you won't look back" will stay with me forever. Great songwriting.
"Live through this and you won't look back" has been one of those phrases that got me through a lot of shit ever since I heard it.
This will forever be the best break-up song. Ever.
a song about a break-up, not really a break-up song
I’d say personally, A Lack Of Color is the best break-up song
Sooo.. I'm a writer, and I was able to base a 188 paged novel off of this. That was two years ago, and it's changed so much that I forgot what it stemmed from. Thank you, Stars, because it is the best thing I've ever written.
what's the book!!
I did something similar. I was writing a novel, and this song spoke so deeply about the characters. I found myself listening to it over and over
Holy shit. I based a story off of this song too! It was like 11 years ago. It got me an A in my English 101 class!
What is the book?
I'd love to read it!
This was my boyfriend's favourite song. He fell and hit his head which lead to his death. I can hear his voice singing each lyric. When we all said our final goodbye, we played this song and I held onto his feet hoping he'd wake up when he heard 'live through this, and you won't look back...' we watched his final breath to this.

Our streets of parkdale, toronto are covered with ghosts. I never get to bike with him into heavy traffic or sit on his porch drinking a warm Turborg with a cigarette in hand. No one will ever get to hear his funny fuckin jokes.
So this song reminds me of a lot. I miss him every day. I look at his collection of books. They haunt me like the notes of this song.
Joshua Pamplin, I didn't get to love you long enough. I will always miss you and your profoundly poetic ways. Come visit me sometime? Please.
This is so heartfelt, hang on to those precious days 💗
Sounds like a cool guy. I wish it weren't so sorrowful to revisit memories of loved ones. My grandpa just passed.. I grew up helping him harvest apples and now that he's gone, I think of him everytime I eat an apple (eating one right now😭)
The things we associate with them are somewhat bazaar but comforting
:(
Oh my heart... this makes me so sad..I'm so sorry. =(
Michael Cusa shut your damn mouth and stop being selfish, she lost someone close to her respect people she’s going through something, words have power
A decade later and still so dear in my heart.
Jesus... it has been that long, hasn't it? I was 22 or so when I first heard this song and I'm turning 32 tomorrow. Good lord.
35 here.
33 here love this song
19 here lol
You still like the song?
This song didn’t resonate until I lost my first love to Suicide this August. Exactly a month after we reconnected. Moral: Please ask your loved ones if they’re ok. Even if they seem like they’re the best they’ve ever been
I hope you make it through this I could never imagine such pain
I hope you're doing well. I lost my best friend since high school (I'm now 28) in November to suicide. I think of him every day.
I hope you’re well
This should have been on the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind soundtrack!!
it's just as beautiful as the movie
If they hadn't come out in the same year maybe it would have been
Weird, I have watched this video several times and just this once thought 'this reminds me of Eternal Sunshine'. Not only are the lyrics very apt (all that time you thought I was sad, I was just trying to remember your name) but also the shots of them lying on the ice together happens in the film too. I was about to go look up the soundtrack... Michel Gondry, who directed Eternal Sunshine, has made some amazing music videos (see Everlong by Foo Fighters) and would approve of this video too.
It’s a nice nod to the film. 💕
I always think of Eternal Sunshine when I hear this song, because of the ice background! Love this song and the movie!
Yeah i thought so
I went to college in the late 2000s and I'm not over her fully.
You don't ever, Really.....
You can move on with life, but you never forget.
❤️
Im sorry for what your partners have to go through then, it hurts when you love someone who isn't over their ex
Same ♥️

I heard this when I was 18 for the first time
I’m 29 now
That shit is tragic
Man it's so excruciating how songs from the teenage/Young Adult days take an even deeper meaning now. Almost as if they were trying to warn us or something
Me too. I think I was 17 and now I'm 29. Where does the time go?
i'm 18 reading this and listening for the first time :/
Oh, it gets worse.
And now I'm 40...
Heard this at the end of a Degrassi episode years ago, I’m 26 now. *Timeless*
Same
Same!!!
That episode introduced me to Stars.
I’m turning 20 this year, and I just now heard it on the degrassi episode you’re talking about. Truly is timeless
what episode??!!
I fell in love with this song when they played it on Degrassi during its good years
This song is such a masterpiece. I hope one day I can write something as emotionally stirring and as honest as this.
Live through this, and you won't look back.
:')
You are so pretty and adorable
If only that were true
It's undoubtedly true:)
Yessssss!
This must be one of the most Canadian music videos...
It's be more Canadian if you knew which movie this video is like
It's really Not - it's Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Thought this exactly. The song too the way it sounds
When I was 16 years old I saw Stars live at the Cat's Cradle. It was profound, but it's not until now, eight years later, that these lyrics leave tingles on my skin.

I never went back to math class. I never went back to that school. I was a straight-A student going to jail with a felony at 16 for distributing a controlled substance. I lost every single one of my friends and my first love. I was sure my life was over. I ended up going to a school for delinquents, which brought my life to another level of darkness that I never imagined possible, but still, I prevailed.

If you read this far, you might be going through the hardest time in your life, but I promise there will always be a silver lining. Beautiful things come from the darkest time. Love to you all.
Wonderful to read this! ❤️ It made my day. May you continue to have many more happy years to learn and love from!
Thanks for sharing, wow good for you and yes music connects us all, maybe not the same story but.... well 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
stay strong.
In the end, everything will be okay. If everything's not okay, it's not yet the end. You got this.
Thank you for sharing your story…. Many of us go through dark times but not everyone prevails.. sharing your story will inspire some, give hope and strength to others. I wish you continued success ❤️
I always listen this song when my heart broken and it heals me a lot.
I know everyone come to your life must have some meaning and teach you something.
I won't regret I loved someone so madly but it is not work out anymore,
Like this lyric said " I'm not sorry I met you. I'm not sorry it's over. I'm not sorry there is nothing to say"
Thank you the one come to my life let me know I still can love someone and I deserved be loved too.
This comment could have been written by me. I agree.
It's much deeper than that, its theres nothing to save
Jia-Ying yang it’s about being ok with a breakup.
Degrassi Graduation 😭 This song gets me in my feelings 😭
Advice for every 15 year old out there...."live through this, and you won't look back....."
2018 anyone? Still listening this at least 20 times per year
Omg I just found my old as ipod nano from 2006 this was in there great song
Karen Gonzalez 2019 here
Finally i bought the CD yesterday, 2019. :-)
Oh yeah. Til hell freezes over.
I hate attention seeking comments like this, what does it matter what year it is? Beautiful music is beautiful music, regardless of time.
Saw them in concert last night,and Torquil picked me out of the crowd and dedicated this song to me. It was like I was 18 again!
"You were what I wanted, I gave what I gave" is one of the most beautiful descriptions of life I've heard!
Yes!
just one of the most beautiful duets in the history of music
easy there…
The song gives me chills. The instrumental alone is beautiful.
This song got me through my breakup with my first love. Looking back after years since then, it still resonates.
Same. I'm happily married and wouldn't change a thing. This song makes me think of the guy I thought I was going to marry when I was 20. I'm not sorry there's nothing to say.
Underappreciated but truly talented band. The harmony. Rythm. Instrumentals. 👌
I discovered this song back in 2005 and I absolutely loved it! Then somehow I forgot about it. 13 years later I went through an old music collection - and here I am. heart-wrenching, but in a nice way. :')
solokom this just happened to me yesterday ❤️
Seeing them again for the first time in years in Manchester next week
Aw, I’m watching their videos after that gig! It was sooo good.
nice sunshine of the spotless mind reference
riGHT
AGREE!
guy: lays dead on the ice
everyone else: oh no i should call the cops after im finished with my figure 8
Memories of my first love . This was the anthem years ago, still so emotional, such a sentimental connection.
is it just me or does this remind anyone of the film 'Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind' the lyrics and video kinda fit perfectly!
you're not alone on feeling this :)
That's because this song was quite literally written for the Eternal Sunshine soundtrack. You're not alone in feeling that way, because that was the intention all along!
It reminds me SPIN the movie. Very goofy one, but I like it nevertheless.
6 years ago, I was going through hell, and someone turned me on to this song. I'm in a far better place now, and I have to keep coming back to listen to it every November.
Heard this when it came out. I was younger but loved it. Years later in 2019, spotify randomly played it for me and I started crying on a train in another country because I knew my relationship was over. Lmao. How can a song be so sad but hopeful at the same time.
I was watching something and heard the voice that says "When there is nothing left to burn you must set yourself on fire" and it instantly made me want to listen to this song again. I love this album so much when I first heard this song it gave me the chills hearing it for the first time and those chills still happen. I mean such great lyrics, Stars are such a wonderful band. I would love to hear what everyone else thinks I think this album stands up.
There are so many beautiful things about this video
- I love that each musician is lying on the floor (and as a musician, playing on the floor is hard af, so props) back to back or back to side. For some reason the trombone and french horn always strike me because the leg angles look so cool
- This song is one of the only songs that I think accurate capture the reality of a break up where both sides think: "I was right, you were wrong, here's my side of the story - I did love you and I was vulnerable with you"
- I love the duality of it almost feeling like a first date, a few of the shadoews holding hands during the ice skating to it feeling just so cold and lonely
- The two singers capture SO WELL what it's like to stand right next to someone who used to be your world and now is your past
- I WILL NEVER NOT CRACK UP AT THE FUCKING DRUMMER LMAO
I swear I've played the piano like that depressed a few too many times. Well, add some tears but you get it.
I listened to this during my breakup with my first serious boyfriend in 2011. I remember that I cried heavily and won't stop doing so.
By now, he is really dead as he died in 2020.
Heard this song for the first time 2 weeks ago. It was and still is pure beauty
Guys, this is the kind of music that you have to do again! All the albuns until set yourself on fire are masterpieces! Please, don't let that kind of songs go away
You should check out The Delgados, listening to this I feel like there's no way this band wasn't at least in part inspired by them, very similar.
SO sadly beautiful. Still love this in 2019. ❤❤❤
I’ll never forget my twin flame, Lola. She passed in 2015.
This was one of our songs.
Always always always. I still need you. I feel you everywhere 🌌❤️
Simply the perfect breakup song. It's been 13 years since I first listened to this, gosh. It still gives me the chills. So great is real Art. So strong is the pain when you have to let her/him go. But to those that are in that dark place right now I say: there is always hope to move on, and be OK again. Just live through this, and you won't look back.
Best breakup song to ever exist on the planet. Helps me out so much.
this makes me miss the "pop" music that was around when I was closer to 20 than 40.
God. This song is still as beautiful-if not more-as the first time I listened to it. To say I'm transfixed would be an understatement, this song manages to engulf me every. single. time. It's such a beautiful piece, lyrically and musically.
Listened to this song on repeat in college daily. I have rediscovered it a dozen times since. Always brings back those same ol feelings. Some hearts never change.
Some songs will never get old. This is one of them.
I'm obsessed with this song.
Those fuckin violins at the end
Don't know this band but over the last 10 years this song has saved me multiple times and it was shown to me by the most amazing girl ever. And we just reconnected.... and I just broke up with my gf. Funny how life works. I doubt there's anything there but having her in my life means more to me than anything
Favorite song in the world(and band) sense 2010. Never stops feeling magical to me.
eeek i have loved this song for forever but lastnight i was watching Daydream nation and it was on there. Im now addicted again.
Love love this song. I especially love her delivery of "from real love"
Anyone else one of the 100 lucky people that saw Stars at the free MySpace Secret show in Vancouver at the Media Club 14 years ago? I remember being SO excited at 14 that it was all ages, I even skipped school so I could be first in line (and I was!). To this day it is the most intimate show I've ever been to. Oh how time passes.
I found this song this year and so much has happened my life fell apart but I rebuilt it and I can’t wait to come back here and tell everyone about the people I’ve loved and lost all over again
Idk why but this song gives me this weird nostalgic feeling of like I’ve seen this before but in my dreams.
"And all of that time you though I was sad, I was trying to remember your name." - 2019 to my ex. ❤️ #tonewbeginnings
just discovered this tonight. its brilliant
9 years. Almost a decade and this song is still tragically beautiful.
I've been here before...and 7 months later I'm here again
It's 2017 and i'm still listening to this. And it gives me a different feel everytime. Stars will always have a special place in my heart. ❤
Who's ready to see this live this fall?
The last time I saw my ex husband I gave him a note that simply said “I’m not sorry I met you, I’m not sorry it’s over. I’m not sorry, there’s nothing to say. I’m not sorry. There’s nothing to say. -The Stars”
For years I listened to this song with the heartache of hoping to be able to live through it and not look back. Finally there, and love this song the same.
2019 is anybody still here??? I love this song
I'm here... 😁
2020 actually!
I wish I could be in a romantic relationship at least once in my life (if it lasts forever that’s the best of course). I’m 25 and still waiting for the right person who’ll respect and love me right to come along :’(

BRING THE PAYNE 75 idk man, I’ve shed many tears already. I still think it’s better to have loved and lost than to never have loved. At least you have memories of what it feels like...
But you are a Hamster.
How can you love like a human?!
MimiTheHamster you’ll find the right one buddy, it’s all timing. Hope you’re okay
How ya doin man you still like this song?
this song makes me feel like you're going away and there's nothing i can do about it
This song will now forever remind me of not only falling in love with my best friend but also... also falling in love with Charlie... My sweet, sweet Charlie.
one of the most underrated bands of all time .. their catalog is incredible ..check it out
?? No recommendations? Come one,
I have been a fan for about 8 years now. I just wanted to randomly leave a comment and say I absolutely LOVE Stars. Totally underrated.
Still love 12 years later❤
This has brought me through so many dark days.
How about in 2019? I love this song. ❤❤❤
Watching all episodes of Degrassi: The Next Generation right now. They just graduated, and I feel like my heart is going to burst.
Stars deserves to be so much more well known!! Their music is amazing, in the complexity, the lyrics, and the sincerity in their songs. It makes me mad that they don't get more recognition haha.
10 years later... I still find comfort in this song
This is my favourite song of all time. It just breaks my heart a little every time I hear it, but in a good way.
The "on thin ice" visual metaphor really added another layer to the already excellent song...
Such a great song, it's so relatable to so many that have been through some turmoil in the past.
Saw these guys in Ottawa last night, feeling nostalgic now. Still love this song.
I was there! It was a pretty great show.
Over ten years later... I love this song still.
I can never skip any part of a Stars song. It just feels wrong to not let them play out.
I just saw them live and WOW! They’re amazing live!!!! Their vibe is so great!
anybody else know this song from Degrassi? Lol I've been obsessed w it since hearing it on one of their season finales years ago
.....all the time you thought I was sad....I was trying to remember your name.
So fucking brutal, right? And so appropriate for the guy I think of whenever I hear this song.
I cant get over how much nostalgia this song has
I had forgotten about this song I first heard it in Daydream Nation and then I started rewatching Degrassi. They used it in the season 5 finale and man it was perfect!!! I love this song! I love the female singer!
It hit me today again to see my first love
I just could hardly believe it
this song just says everything
Actually heard it on the old degrassi and then I heard it again and soo many memories
I heard this song for the first time in high school, I was 15. I saw them live 2 years later. That was 15 years ago.
I've just broken up with my boyfriend of 3 years... the last part of this song really speaks to me, it's exactly how I'm feeling right now.
I've always appreciated this song but once I was widowed at 35 with conflicted emotions about the 180° my life was taking it took on a whole new meaning. This is a beautiful song ❤
I miss this song so much, back then I met them when I was much much younger and honestly I’m so happy I did :”) This just gave me nostalgic feels and I really miss that feeling
Degrassi nostalgia for this one! It sucks growing up!
Still one of the best songs ever released.
I never thought I would ever want to go dancing with a girl, not into dancing. But I think I would go dancing with a girl if I got to pick the music. Starting with this song.
Geohot brought me here 😆
He has good taste in music 🔥
