Shooting Stars

from Points of View by A Montreal Paul

/

about

The story of a band that made it big, as told through phrases from press releases and reviews.

lyrics

I hear it's an electric juggernaut
To sharpen up your pop chops
Catchy phrases derived from books
Fuzzy synths and sucker punch hooks

Coated with 1980s sheen
Videos with eye-catching scenes
And there you hopefully are
Poised to go so very far

CHORUS: Shooting stars are on the rise
The usual story, no surprise
You can see them flying high
As other stars fall from the sky

It took a while to hone their technique
Now unbridled sounds are tweaked
Streamlined to pop perfection
In every savoury confection

Hear them play and sing
Another addictive offering
Going by the prevailing winds
To break out of the margins

CHORUS

So they managed to escape
Into the broader cultural landscape
A land of hope and glory
Or a place where perceptions are blurry

Here's hoping this well never end
Present another sonic blend
Get it out to the wider masses
Before this opportunity passes

CHORUS
