| Stellastarr* – Jenny Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Quoting the singer of the band: "Jenny (that’s her real name) is a girl that, in my opinion, messed up one of my best friend's lives -- just by being a bad influence. So I just wrote a song about it. I actually don't know either of them anymore. Up until the last year or so, I've never been able to write about a current event. So, when I wrote “Jenny” it was about something that had happened three years earlier. It was easy for me to reminisce and look back at it with a fresh view. In a way, writing about past events is kind of like hiding because find yourself unable to write about what’s currently going on in your life. I needed to start doing that, and come out of hiding." |

| Stellastarr* – Untitled Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Quoting the singer of the band: "This song is called “Untitled” because there was a time when I wasn’t interested in the titles of songs so our drummer Arthur was naming the songs for a while. I'd write the lyrics and then let him name them. So he named that one “Untitled” for two reasons: no one could really agree on a title and because the song is about starting over and reintroducing yourself to the world – like someone without a name. Arthur thought “Untitled” was a metaphor for not having a name." |

| Stellastarr* – Moongirl Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Quoting the singer of the band: "This song for a long time was just an instrumental song that I had written four years ago by myself. At the time I had nothing to say, but I felt like it was just a great riff on its own. I felt the music could breathe on its own without being [messed] up with vocals. And then later in stellastarr*, everyone liked the song. At the time, I was really introverted and kind of a recluse. I couldn't really relate to a lot of the girls I was meeting. So I wrote lyrics to this song about a girl that doesn't exist -- from another planet. I felt that I could tag on those lyrics towards the end of the song so I wouldn't mess up the instrumental part. It sort of matched the mood for me because the song had kind of a space-like quality. " |

| Stellastarr* – My Coco Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
To quote the singer of the band: "'My Coco' is about those first few months when you meet somebody and everything's just new, great and spontaneous. You know when you start dating someone, and everything's great? It's giddy and amazing and explorative, and you can't wait till she calls you? Coco is actually an ex-girlfriend though that's not her real name… Eventually, the relationship started going in a downward spiral, and I lost all that initial giddiness…" |
