The band got their name while in the USA. The four often got coffee at Starbucks, and in the USA, Konstantin was known as 'Stan' - and at Starbucks they write your name on the cup when you order. The waitress asked them if they were a band and suggest the name therefore.
In September 2007 Stanfour released their debut single, Do It All, which jumped in the German single charts, and reached place 46. Their second song, For All Lovers, was chosen by Sat.1 as trailer music for the TV show 'Nur die Liebe zählt' (Only Love Counts) and ran in September 2007. Their debut album 'Wild Life' came out on February 29, 2008. From April 2 to May 5, the band were the main opening act for the Backstreet Boys on their European Tour (Germany, Belgium & Luxembourgh).
Stanfour has also toured with John Fogerty (Creedance Clearwater Revival) and played shows with Daughtry, One Republic and Bryan Adams. In addition to the heavy hitters they’ve performed with, Stanfour has had some powerful players in the music industry working on this project. Writers Max Martin [Pink, James Blunt], Lindy Robbins [Backstreet Boys], Jess Cates [Backstreet Boys], Ryan Tedder [Singer, OneRepublic], and Desmond Child [Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Kiss] all contributed to the album, with Randy Staub [Nickelback, Metallica] mixing the final product and Martin Hansen [The Rasmus] producing.
Beautiful
Stanfour Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Looking for a glimpse of light
Wake up the sunshine, sunshine
A world of statues made of stone
Breaking up the frozen cold
Time to say goodbye, goodbye
When there’s nowhere to turn
Together we’re beating, heart and soul
And if we are apart
You’ll never know
Together we are beautiful
Who we are
What we are
Together we are beautiful
All we are
Where we are
Together we are beautiful
Ooooh, oooh,
Together we are beautiful
Ooooh, oooh,
Together we are beautiful
We are searching for a place
Looking for a saving grace
It’s gonna be alright, alright
When the world’s getting dim
A new day will begin
We are untied with one soul
And if we are apart
You’ll never know
Together we are beautiful
Who we are
What we are
Together we are beautiful
All we are
Where we are
Together we are beautiful
Ooooh, oooh,
Together we are beautiful
Ooooh, oooh,
Together we are beautiful
And if we, and if we stay
Beautiful
Together we are beautiful, beautiful
Together we are beautiful, beautiful
Together we are beautiful, beautiful
Who we are
What we are
Together we are beautiful
All we are
Where we are
Together we are beautiful
Uuuh, beautiful
Together we are beautiful
Uuuh, beautiful
Together we are beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful
Together we are beautiful

The lyrics of Stanfour's song "Beautiful" speak of finding hope and light in difficult times by coming together as one. The opening lines of the song suggest a sense of isolation and desperation - the "black October Sky" represents a bleak and cold reality, and the search for a "glimpse of light" implies a need for hope and positivity. However, the chorus counters this with a message of togetherness - "Together we're beating, heart and soul" - suggesting that by coming together as a community, we can overcome adversity.
The lyrics also suggest a sense of universal connection and shared humanity, such as the lines "Who we are, What we are/Together we are beautiful". The repetition of the word "together" reinforces this idea that it is our collective strength and resilience that makes us beautiful.
Overall, "Beautiful" is a song of hope and unity that encourages listeners to find strength in coming together to face life's challenges. It is a reminder that we are all in this together and that we are stronger when we support one another.
