Cover art for Big Star lyrics by Kenny Chesney

I think it's about how some people think you can just fall into being a star. Sometimes that do happens, but most people work hard for it. And if you do have to put up a struggle to get to the top, it makes you feel quite happy with yourself and very proud: "She says if you work hard to get where you are It feels good in the hot spotlight" Perhaps it's also a warning for stars (and their fans) that take there status to much for granted and who haven't worked for it - that makes it in a way harder to keep touch with reality and stay happy in the spotlight.
