does anyone know if this song is directed at a particular star?

i feel like it represents that feeling of mysticism and power one feel when you get obseesed with a supertar enigma. the irony is that thugh you might feel your support is incredibly powerful, it really doesnt mean a thing

@salada regarding it being a particular star -- the song's glam rock feel and the mention of a crash make me think of Marc Bolan, who died young and was somewhat idolized. (I don't think the song's about him, just that you're supposed to picture a kid idolizing someone similar while their mom gets taken in by a televangelist)
