1. Stars is a Canadian indie pop band signed to the Arts & Crafts label. Originally formed in Toronto in 1998 by vocalist Torquil Campbell and keyboardist Chris Seligman, the band relocated to New York City and then subsequently to Montreal. The band also includes singer-guitarist Amy Millan and bassist Evan Cranley. Drummer Pat McGee has toured with the band for years, despite not appearing on their albums until the release of Set Yourself On Fire.
The band’s breakthrough single was Ageless Beauty, from their 2004 album Set Yourself on Fire. While released to minimal fanfare in Canada in October of 2004, Set Yourself on Fire slowly gained a strong following and critical praise soon after its 8 March 2005 U.S. release.
Millan, Campbell and Cranley are also members of the indie band Broken Social Scene; Seligman, although uncredited, has contributed to past Broken Social Scene albums. Millan has since embarked on a solo career, releasing a record entitled Honey From the Tombs in July 2006. Campbell has a side-project with friend Chris Dumont entitled Memphis; their latest album, A Little Place In the Wilderness, was released in August 2006.
On their website, they have noted that their name was chosen, by coincidence, without prior knowledge of the short-lived project by Syd Barrett. They have cited a wide variety of musical likes and influences ranging from Berlioz to Outkast, citing among others Barrett, Paddy McAloon, New Order, The Smiths, Brian Wilson and Momus. They covered The Smiths’ This Charming Man on 2001’s Nightsongs and The Pogues’ Fairytale of New York in 2005. Other indie artists have been guest collaborators on many of their tracks, especially for an early period including the release of their first LP.
2. The Stars is a Japanese psychedelic rock band. It consists of ex-members of the legendary band White Heaven including Michio Kurihara (Ghost, Boris, Ai Aso) on guitar and You Ishihara on vocals. For more information see The Stars.
3. Stars, a short-lived British band in 1972. Its members were Syd Barrett on guitar, Twink on drums, and Jack Monck (of Delivery) on bass. They played three live concerts in Cambridge before Barrett left the group, thus (essentially) ending it. Shortly thereafter Syd Barrett left music altogether and began a life in seclusion, and this project is sometimes seen as the so called 'straw that broke the camel's back'. Recordings of their performances remain lost, though it has been attested that all three performances contained early Pink Floyd songs and different versions of tracks from Barrett's 1970 solo album The Madcap Laughs. It has also been stated in multiple accounts that in each show Barrett entered one of his somewhat trademark catatonic trances, the worst coming in their second concert, where Barrett became almost completely frozen and had to be carried off stage. This was not unusual, having happened many times while Syd was still a member of Pink Floyd.
According to Twink, the band ended when Barrett approached him in the street, carrying a scathing review of their third concert. He waved the paper in Twink's face and said, essentially, "That's it."
4. Stars, an Australian country rock band from the late 1970s, most noted for the songs 'Mighty Rock' and 'Look After Yourself'. The band's main songwriter, Andy Durant, died tragically from cancer at age 25, marking the demise of the band. Fellow band members and many other luminaries in the Australian music scene at the time including Jimmy Barnes and Renee Geyer played a memorial concert, the Andy Durant Memorial Concert, to raise money for cancer research in mid-1980.

The lyrics in Stars' song The 400 tell the story of a person traveling by airplane to see someone they haven't seen in a while. The singer's hope and longing for the visit to go well is evident in the repetition of the phrase "It has to go right this time." The singer is also clearly anxious in the anticipation of the visit, as they describe turning on the heat early to ensure the house is warm when they arrive.
The second verse of the song contributes an added element of nostalgia and uncertainty. The singer describes the town where the person they're visiting lives as surrounding "another town we live beside," suggesting that the singer used to know the area well, but has since lost familiarity with it. The highway exits change at random and the roads divide, a possible metaphor for the challenges the singer may face in reconnecting with someone they once knew well. Despite this uncertainty, however, the singer remains hopeful that their visit will be successful.
Overall, The 400 is a song that captures the emotion of a person traversing physical and emotional distances to reconnect with someone from their past. The repetition of the phrase "It has to go right this time" serves as a powerful reminder of the singer's hope and optimism for the future.
Line by Line Meaning
You know that I'll see you again
I'm confident that we'll meet again
It's just an hour or two by airplane
The distance between us is not a big deal
I park the car, I park the car
I arrive at my destination and find a place to park my car
I'm tired of what I do
I'm feeling worn-out and unsatisfied with my current job or lifestyle
Turn the heat on early
I want to make sure it's warm when I finish what I'm doing
It'll be cold when I get through
I know that it will take a while and the temperature will drop before I finish
This town surrounds another town we live beside
The place we call home is close to another town
The highway exit change at random and the road divides
The roads around us are unpredictable and can split off in different directions
If you lose your way just ask a stranger they'll let you know
If you get lost, there are friendly people around who can give you directions
There's no way back to that house you knew so long ago
We can't go back to the way things were in the past, even if we want to
It has to go right this time.
I have high hopes and expectations that things will work out well
It's got to go right.
I'm putting pressure on myself and others to make sure everything goes smoothly
It has to go right this time.
I really want things to work out properly
It has to go right this time.
I'm feeling anxious and scared that things might not work out
It's got to go right.
I am counting on things going well
It's got to go.
Whatever happens, I need this to work out
It has to go right.
My future and well-being depend on things going well

This song to me is about how one person leaves there loved one behind because it was not going well the first time so the guy or gal saying it has to go right this time is coming back to them again. Kinda like a second chance.

The Cover Pic is the Safdie built dormitory homes called Habitat 67 built for the Expo 67 held in Montreal. It is one of a few buildings built that stayed populated from creation through to today. Most were eventually allowed to fall down by natural means others were eventually bought by other enterprises and made into Casinos and other entertainment facilitles. Hollywood had a rush of film and Television projects that used the abandoned Expo buildings as SciFi backdrops and scenery for their producions, most famously the Paul Newman Ice Age film Quintet and the later episodes of Battlestar Galactica.
