Heart

Overview Edit

Heart is an album by the Canadian indie rock band Stars, released on Paper Bag Records in Canada and on Arts & Crafts in the USA.

The album features three regional covers; the Canadian cover features a man embracing a woman resting on his lap, the US cover features a billboard with a girl's eyes gazing onward and the European cover features three girls spying out of a porthole.

The album was originally released with a bonus promotional sampler of acts with current releases on Paper Bag, including Matthew Barber, Hawaii, The FemBots and Uncut. Two tracks from Heart were repeated on the sampler, along with a non-album bonus track, "Timeless".

The US release includes a hidden bonus track, a live version of "The Comeback", originally taken from the 2001 EP of the same name. The track "Look Up" uses an English horn solo from the beginning of the third movement of Symphonie Fantastique by Berlioz and the track "The Woods" contains quotes from the movie Grey Gardens, the famed cult-classic documentary from 1975. Videos for the songs "Elevator Love Letter" and "Look Up" were shot to promote this album.

The album was recorded in the bedroom of keyboard player Chris Seligman on Avenue Mont-Royal in Montreal.

A venturing sucessful

I spend pretty much all of my money on music. I'm dressed in rags at this very moment. So in other words I have a lot of music and of everything I have bought, downloaded, seen live, seen on tv, and heard, I would have to say that this cd is one of the best ever.

Stars present something unbelievably delicate, enchanting, hauntingly beautiful. It will draw you in and distract you in the most pleasant way. Every single song is crafted at a first listen, efortlessly, but with repeated exposure it …

Much better

I think this is the best c-d they have put out. The previous one I would compare to any John Denver or Johnny Cash song; once you've heard one, you've heard them all. I was impressed with this album and would recommend it to others.
