Ash - Starcrossed (Live at Jools Holland 2004) скачать видео бесплатно

"Starcrossed" was the second single released in a physical format from the Meltdown album by the band Ash on July 19, 2004. It was released as a single CD (released as only 1 CD version) as a gatefold 7" vinyl, as well as on DVD format and various promo copies. "Starcrossed" was A-Listed on BBC Radio 1 and was expected to be a major hit for the band, but in fact only made it to number #22 in the charts. However, the song was successful in the long run for the band and is considered one of their most popular songs.

"Starcrossed" is Meltdown's only slow paced song, and is a power ballad "based on 'Romeo & Juliet'. I've always loved that grouping of words that Shakespeare did". (Tim, 2004). Mark has described it as: "Star-crossed - It's the big power ballad, with Tim singing about 2 lovers who are in no uncertain terms 'fucked'". The track is unusual for the band in many ways. One of the most notable ways is the fact that all the guitar work is handled by Wheeler in this video, while Hatherley handles piano duties.

The track was played at every concert on the "Meltdown" tour, but has yet to appear on the tour accompanying Ash's latest album, "Twilight of the Innocents".
