Songs about Stars

Do any of you know any good songs about ✨stars✨? I am making a playlist on a random whim, but my entire repertoire of star songs amounts to seven, and over half of those are from Averno and Les Mia, so it's not very extensive. Many thanks!

back to the Chirp at Cricket

All of The Stars- Ed Sheeran

Counting Stars- OneRepublic

Drops of Jupiter- Train (more about space in general, but yea) 

The Moon Song- Gregory Alan Ikasov (about the moon, but that's similar, right?)

Not About Angels and Surrender- Birdy (These aren't about stars but,, idk it might fit the vibe)

I just wanted to give song suggestions, lol. It sounds like a cool playlist, but I won't be offended if you don't add them :)

Midnight Sun by the Gothard Sisters is good.  (I like pretty much any of their music).  The chorus talks about stars which is why I thought of it, but it may not have enough about stars.  If I think of any more I'll let you know!

Off the top of my head, Yellow by Coldplay! It's not necessarily about stars but it has a great line "look at the stars/look how they shine for you", so I quote it a lot. Of course Drops of Jupiter by Train, like Aza said. I've gotten a lot of star songs recommended to me over the years because of my name and "CBers-as-songs" threads, so if I find any more I'll let you know!

*scrolls through extremely unorganized playlist*

Cosmic Love by Florence + the Machine and Just Give Me A Reason by Pink are the only ones I could find.

Ooh, ooh! I got one!

"Light the sky" by Grace VanderWall...

Cause the stars are dull when they're compared to you and I

And if people don't like it then they can close their eyes...

Hmmm... well, she also has a song called "Moonlight" if you're interested...

Oh, one more... Well, this one is about the moon but it's so pretty TuT

"Moonbeam song" by Parry Gripp. Most of his songs are weird (Baby yoda...) but this is so sweet ahhhhhhh

Wow, there are a lot of good star songs that I forgot! That reminds me, Carry On by fun. has a line about stars too! And if you didn't already have Twinkling Lights by Averno, then that.

Thank you everyone! These are all great.

@Aza, I do have Twinkling Lights, that's actually what I was listening to when I got a random longing to find as many star songs as I could.

Shooting Star by Owl City, and perhaps Fireflies too? That one's not really about stars, buuut...

He has several songs that mention stars, but I'm not sure they all would fit the vibe. Maybe The Saltwater Room?
