This is one of those rare great bands that sound exactly like their albums when live. Seen them Once in Montreal, Amazing show. Will never forget it. See them any chance you get. Humble people. Rare in the industry.
Wow 8 years ago? I wish RUclips had a time stamp of when you put something on your WATCH LATER playlist. It's May 5, 2023 and I'm just now getting to this video. Haha. Too bad i can't remember when I marked it to watch later. Haha.... Good music though 🎶
Yes, excellent live. Saw them with Metric in Victoria a few years ago. Torquil accidentally walked right off the front of the stage but luckily wasn't hurt badly enough to stop the show although I'm sure he was quite sore afterward. The performance was not at all affected.
cheryl you are as always on point. what with that rant about stars always releasing something solid and the pride you feel about being an early adopter. im right there, and so i was back at nightsongs and that goddamn miracle of a song "tru" that shook up the north of sweden for years. i dont know if i have commented on this before, but i fucking LOVE you Cheryl Waters. for the longest time i tried to figure out why afghan wigs and mazzy star would come back at the same time along with so many others. was it dangelo opening the door for good music again? or the rise of king krule and his generation of anti american idols and geniuses? or was it your Holy work? in any case, thank you and ur friends for carrying the torch
+righteousgroove French Canadian and Canadian Mixed. The Drummer, Bassist and Keyboardist are from the Montreal French/Canadian area, Torquil and Amy are from Ontario area of Canada. Sorry, long time fan of them here and having visited Montreal and having many friends there, they consider there to be a big difference.
rac_n Yes it is and they have a ton of wonderful albums in between that song and now. Dead hearts was my favorite album of their and I saw them on tour during it !!!!
My man is WORKING on 'Trap Door'............fuck yes...........cherish this band.
Has there been a more consistently great pop band than Stars over the last 20+ years? I don't think so. They are criminally underrated.
0:46 This Is The Last Time
3:55 Trap Door
15:25 Look Away
20:00 Elevator Love Song ( ♥♥ )
Torq:
"Don't worry I'm going to change all the swear words"
Also Torq:
"SHIT!"
Also anyone who doesn't know, Stars have a patreon and its fantastic.

Im gona start a Cheryl Waters fan club haha :) Keep working wonders for modern music KEXP!
Such a great but most of all fun performance. They love what they do and KEXP loves them. So much love! Thanks KEXP!
I love this band. My favorite song by Stars is Hold On When You Get Love And Let Go When You Give it, followed by Turn It Up.

One of my favorite bands from Canada.
I just love this band. One of the best in my books!
You had one job, Torquil! His reaction was priceless though.
I don't think one listener of KEXP would report them for a live performance where "shit" was heard.

Definitely not, I was laughing the whole time.
My first thought was "Did you really just promise to cover swear words in a live performance? I think not."
Lol, I don’t think it’s possible for Torq NOT to swear.
Love this band! Saw them last week in Calgary. Consistent, awesome rock and a great live show too!

Cheryl Waters is my soul animal :D
Saw you all in Ithaca, NY with one of my best friends. Awesome show! Come back! I need to hear Reunion or Elevator live. Trap Door is sick BTW!
I was so lucky I saw them live in Melbourne 9-8 years ago? What a surprised they came down all the way to the south.
Trap Door is bloody brilliant !
Very underrated band

KEXP rocks!!!
I LOVE THEM 💛
Amazing band, and Canadian to boot :)

Great voices...
EXP is awesome!
is this the same stars that sing 'your ex-lover is dead'????
Yup!
rac_n Yes it is and they have a ton of wonderful albums in between that song and now. Dead hearts was my favorite album of their and I saw them on tour during it !!!!
Just a minor correction, it's Elevator Love Letter at 20:00 not "song"
Quarenta~
very good - middle of the road - music!
Funny man Torquil is!
this is pretty bad...
Why do you think that?
