From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Song Information
This song was originally a rock-driven track, but it made a complete change in the studio. "Stars" is an up-tempo song with dance and techno sound, which is quite bizarre for Roxette. It's sung by Fredriksson and in the chorus a children choir can be heard. Many remixes were made including Almighty Radio Edit, which got airplay in most of radio stations. "Stars" was released as a maxi-CD with tracks like "Anyone", "Better Off On Her Own" and the demos of "I Was So Lucky" and "7Twenty7".
[edit] Song Success
In Europe, "Stars" became a hit single, hitting Top 10 in Finland, Top 20 in Sweden and Norway and Top 30 in Germany and Switzerland. It actually was more successful than ""Wish I Could Fly"" in Finland, Norway and Germany. It was the last Roxette single to make the UK Top 75, but it charted quite low, at #56. The video (directed by Anton Corbijn) reached #19 on MTV's European Top 20.
