Stars and love burn bright, Till they’re ready to die. The broken spend their nights, Staring at the sky. You, oh, you had a sad urge, To be wanted by fools. Welcoming girls that would be, Snoopin', troopin' enveloping your family jewels. You chose to grow your nose, 'Cause deep down you knew I knew, You knew I knew, that I’d up and run quicker, than you could come They said I was too good for you. Wake up little Suzie, It’s bad news when you hear a guy cry. You spilled the beans in January, Timed it perfectly after your granny died. You knew I wouldn’t shoot a man when he was down, Well done Pinocchio you told a lie. I wouldn't take advantage of a cut up heart, You’re such a vulnerable type. You tell me "I’m so lonely, Won’t you hold me? Stars shine, only But it's only light. Oh, old light, it’s been dead, For a long time, Long, long time with time, time. Stars and love burn bright, Till they’re ready to die, The broken spend their nights, Staring at the sky. Now it's time to bury the hatchet and bury it deep you've a massive heart but you're a fucked up kid and we sow what we reap Woah, 'cause we grew up a solitary souls Sometimes it’s better to be on our own. I need time just to roam, roam, roam, Find a place I can call home. Love is like starlight, Even when a star dies. You can still see it shine, But it’s only old light. Oh, old light, it’s been dead, For a long time, time, time. with time, time. Stars and love burn bright, Till they’re ready to die. The broken spend their nights, Staring at the sky. Oh, If love enters your life, It leaves a stain inside the sky. And this will lead you to believe, That it is still alive. But it is just old light, Completing it's last flight. Across a velvet night, Stars burn bright till they die. love bites in the sky, Love is like starlight, love is starlight
Ah, another great song from my early teens. Marina's absolutely fantastic. I really like her voice, it's so good and so interesting. I could see her in a group, she's got something really special about her. I think if Marina and the Diamonds was a band, I could see her as the lead singer.

I have a tattoo of the lyrics of this song: Love is like starlight, even when a star dies you can still see it shine, but it's only old light. It represents to me that love is always there, even when you cannot see it or feel it anymore, is always shining. Definetely a sad era, it was years ago lol. But i am happy that i sort of remind myself of seeing always the bright side of a broken heart
Now I wouldn’t go that far…..some of her unreleased are good and some are better than some of her released but her released songs are better in my option
Anyone kind enough to direct me towards a HQ, direct download of this version of the song (rather than lossy conversion)??? Be much appreciated ^-^ xxx
You, oh, youuu, had a sad urge to be wanted by fools 🎶... You've a massive heart, but you're a fucked up kid, and we sow what we reap... 🎵😍😍 I love this song and this MATD
this was actually supposed to be on an unreleased album named "die Life" which the "die" means "the" in german. basically electra heart and family jewels had a kid. other songs like scab & plaster, miss y, or radioactive were supposed to be in it!
Not this song! It was recorded for the Family Jewels, this demo surfaced around the time of the recording of what was supposed to be her second album but was recorded back in 2008! x
It’s hard because i love these released demos but i also worry that we’re being dicks, some of this may have just been parts of her story she wasn’t ready to share yet. She’s a lyricist and you can read her like a book, is it fair to her to ask her to reveal this much?
I've always thought it's about cheating. The man is crying as he confesses to Marina (after his granny dies!), He uses the timing to hope she will not be mad at him as she isn't going to hurt him anymore than the death did... Of course stars are so far away, they could be dead by the time we are actually seeing their light. So Marina didn't see the relationship was dead while looking into it yet; just as we see the star as if it is alive, she saw their love as alive. Now she's wiser and sees that it has been dead for a long time (because he cheated/whatever event he fessed up to after his granny died).
I'm thinking it might have been about her father since tfj era revolved around the relationship between him and her. Possibly, her father's mother died and he took it out on her out of grief and pain. And like what @Sadie Creel said about the stars, it was pretty obvious their father/daughter relationship was pretty dead.
MarliesMega But Numb is one of the best ones! I feel like we could have more of the unreleased demos, like this one, the actual Family Jewels song, or something else.
![Marina and The Diamonds - Living Dead [2020 Extended Mix]](/img/n.gif)
Looking back, it's so crazy she never released this. It's easily one of her best songs ever.
If Numb and Buy the stars had a child
More liek hermit the frog with buy the stars
They had a threesome.
@@mirkohoble this.
Those are my favorite Marina songs (along with Solitaire and Fear And Loathing) so it's no wonder why I'm obsessed with this.
This is what I thought!
It's like a The Family Jewels version of Buy The Stars. I love it!
yes totally! It also sounds a lot like Numb to my ears
currently binging old Marina songs to remember the time when her music was the only thing that got me through middle school
Been a fan since middle school I'm now going into college soon.
I just turned 22 started at 12
i see her this weekend, same. i’m going to cry so hard
you and me both. I spent my AWFUL seventh grade year watching Harry Potter and listening to Marina!
me rn
:). I'm so unbelievably proud of her..I cant even begin to explain what a positive impact she's had in my life.
@D DURST what
In mine too.
I just subscribed to your channel, BTW.
Same here
I guess Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?

Stars and love burn bright,
Till they’re ready to die.
The broken spend their nights,
Staring at the sky.
You, oh, you had a sad urge,
To be wanted by fools.
Welcoming girls that would be,
Snoopin', troopin' enveloping your family jewels.
You chose to grow your nose,
'Cause deep down you knew I knew,
You knew I knew, that I’d up and run quicker,
than you could come
They said I was too good for you.
Wake up little Suzie,
It’s bad news when you hear a guy cry.
You spilled the beans in January,
Timed it perfectly after your granny died.
You knew I wouldn’t shoot a man when he was down,
Well done Pinocchio you told a lie.
I wouldn't take advantage of a cut up heart,
You’re such a vulnerable type.
You tell me "I’m so lonely,
Won’t you hold me?
Stars shine, only
But it's only
light.
Oh, old light, it’s been dead,
For a long time,
Long, long time
with time, time.
Stars and love burn bright,
Till they’re ready to die,
The broken spend their nights,
Staring at the sky.
Now it's time to bury the hatchet and bury it deep
you've a massive heart but you're a fucked up kid and we sow what we reap
Woah, 'cause we grew up a solitary souls
Sometimes it’s better to be on our own.
I need time just to roam, roam, roam,
Find a place I can call home.
Love is like starlight,
Even when a star dies.
You can still see it shine,
But it’s only old light.
Oh, old light, it’s been dead,
For a long time,
time, time.
with time, time.
Stars and love burn bright,
Till they’re ready to die.
The broken spend their nights,
Staring at the sky.
Oh, If love enters your life,
It leaves a stain inside the sky.
And this will lead you to believe,
That it is still alive.
But it is just old light,
Completing it's last flight.
Across a velvet night,
Stars burn bright till they die.
love bites in the sky,
Love is like starlight,
love is starlight
@Lis z stars IN LOVE glow bright till they're ready to die
Thanks for this. Pure gold.
This is without a doubt one Marinas best songs.
My number one fave valley of the dolls...but this comes close
Sophia j fear and loathing, and happy are also some of her best
Starlight should have been on the album for sure. It's perfect.
Why hasn't the whole world heard this? I adore it
Are you still alive?
OMFG SO MANY DIFFERENT DEMOS OF STARLIGHT IT MAKES MY HEAD HURT I WANT ALL OF THEM HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO LABEL THEM IN MY PHONE
label them as demo 1 demo 2 etc.
Magical sound
One of my favourites :)
There is something so eerie, creepy and depressing about her old music, but I absolutely fucking love it ❤️
Turbulent but compelling.
Why isn't this on an album omfg she just needs to put all her ones that didn't make it on the albums on this big huge one 😍👍
true
Gotta make a petition. Their is so much more now
jewelled froot She said in an interview for Grazia Italia that she might make an album of her unreleased songs.
@@ulayla1605 😍
bestie literally manifested elecrta hrart platinum edition... nothing but respect
*Shivers* Marina doesn't have one less-than-amazing song. THIS NEEDS SO MANY MORE VIEWS!
marinaaa stop making me cry
3:27 wow ok I’m crying
God I love this so much
Ah, another great song from my early teens. Marina's absolutely fantastic. I really like her voice, it's so good and so interesting. I could see her in a group, she's got something really special about her. I think if Marina and the Diamonds was a band, I could see her as the lead singer.
remember her feelings are associated with colors she can see colors it's amazing
I keep coming back to this song in particular for some reason, it grew on me and now I wish she officially released these gems 💕
This one is such a precious secret diamond.
this is such a beautiful song. it really helps me see the truth behind some people.
1:40
When she goes ”oh-old light” my soul gets reborn. Idk why Bb-F-Gm has some kind of hold on me since i heard this song for the first time
This song has to be one of the most underrated songs on earth
wow, hi after 10 years !!
UMM WHY WAS THIS ROBBED OF BEING ON AN ALBUM
I'm upset and I need all her old stuff on Spotify
It's a secret jewel 💖💎🌟
Nihil Ego well I wish it wasn’t a secret
Why the fuck isn’t this on Spotify
Nihil Ego a whole bop
It was supposed to be on The Family Jewels but i'm pretty sure she wanted it to be free of any songs related to love. It got replaced by Numb.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever. She wrote and produced on her own too
This song is so dreamy and tragic
I love how each of her songs tells a story. This is a beautifully sad song about a failed relationship.
Stars of love burn bright
Till they’re ready to die
The broken spend their nights
Staring at the sky
You, oh, you had a sad urge
To be wanted by fools
Welcoming girls that would be
Snoopin', troopin' enveloping your family jewels
You chose to grow your nose
But deep down you knew I knew
You knew I knew that
I’d up and run quicker
Than good boys could come
They said I was too good for you
Wake up little Suzie
It’s bad news when you hear a guy cry
You spilled the beans in January
Timed it perfectly after your granny died
You knew I wouldn’t shoot a man when he was down
Well done Pinocchio you told a lie
Why would you take advantage of a cut up heart
You’re such a vulnerable type
You said: I’m so lonely
Won’t you hold me?
I’m so lonely, come close baby hold me
Love is like starlight
See it when a star dies
It continues to shine
But its only old light
Oh, old light, it’s been dead
For a long time
Long time, with time, time
Stars of love burn bright
Till they’re ready to die
The broken spend their nights
Staring at the sky
If love enters your life
It leaves a stain inside your sky
This will lead you to believe
That it is still alive
But it is just old light
Completing it's last flight
Across a velvet night
Stars burn bright till they die
Like love bites in the sky
Love is like starlight
Love is starlight
I took all our favorite songs
Played them and I made them my own
I went to our favorite bars
And I drank in them alone
Woah, 'cause I’ve grown up a solitary soul
Sometimes I think it’s better on my own
I need time just to roam, roam, roam
Find one place I can call home
Love is like starlight
Even when a star dies
You can see it shine
But it’s only old light
Oh, old light, it’s been dead
For a long time
Long time, long time
Stars and love burn bright
Till they’re ready to die
The broken spend their nights
Staring at the sky
If love enters your life
It leaves a mark inside your sky
This will lead you to believe
That it is still alive
But it is just old light
Completing it's last flight
Across a velvet night
Stars burn bright till they die
Like love bites in the sky
Love is like starlight
Love is starlight
I stand by this being her best song
This goes hard
This song is incredible
This is really good. I would have loved to see it on the album.❤️
I wish I heard this before 😭❤
Amazing!

Her unreleased tracks are better than a lot of her released tracks.
Now I wouldn’t go that far…..some of her unreleased are good and some are better than some of her released but her released songs are better in my option
1000%
Omg this is beautiful ❤

That is true! I feel this way about many artists. And maybe this song was very personal for her. The subject matter certainly seems to be.
Still trying to figure out the meaning of it :))

@@sadie2235 That's actually a really good theory. It makes sense as well
One of the best songs in the entire world, if Billie Eilish sang this, people would eat it up sadly
Digne de Kate Bush ! Mais Marina me donne plus de chansons à aimer.
I would have so preferred this on the album instead of Rootless.
FUCKIN SAMEEEE
Hell no
Or just have this on the album along with rootless and jealousy
get out
nah rootless is so good😭😭😭
I would have preferred Starlight on The Family Jewels over a song like The Outsider
MarliesMega I'm not a big fan of Guilty. That's really the only song on TFJ I don't absolutely love :)
It doesn't fit the TFJ theme tbh. I like it being unreleased
MarliesMega It was on the Give Me Money EP.
MarliesMega But Numb is one of the best ones! I feel like we could have more of the unreleased demos, like this one, the actual Family Jewels song, or something else.
MarliesMega I would love that. One for each era.
it sounds like dirty sheets
She sounds do different now. She lost a lot of her deeper tones
