the-cause
And this is listed as "Stars" because it is ultimately a Stars album, regardless of who is doing each individual track. It's tagged as such on the actual CD, which I own.

the-cause
I'm surprised at how many people actually dislike this album. I would think anybody who has actual knowledge and love for Broken Social Scene, their side projects and Canadian music in general would have at least a general form of respect for what's going on here. Sure if SYOF is all that you have known and are used to, this album is something to get used to, but really it's not that bad.

Why is this under "Stars" and not "Various Artists" ?
-
lofidelphia
The only problem with the album is that it is not very cohesive at all. These tracks work great on their own. The Dears' tracks are a good example of that.

Isn't this like Set Yourself on Fire? What's the difference, though?

I wish my ex lover is dead !

I agree with warenjine, but "Calendar Girl" is nowhere near as good as the other mix
-
warenjine
I actually like this final fantasy version of "your ex-lover is dead" more than the original on set yourself on fire

All of these songs are mistagged. They are distinct from the songs of the same names from Set Yourself On Fire. The correct names are: 1. "Your Ex-Lover Is Dead" (Final Fantasy) 2. "Set Yourself on Fire" (Montag) 3. "Ageless Beauty" (The Most Serene Republic) 4. "Reunion" (Jason Collett) 5. "The Big Fight" (Minotaur Shock) 6. "What I'm Trying to Say Pt. 1" (The Dears) 7. "What I'm Trying to Say Pt. 2" (The Dears) 8. "One More Night" (Apostle of Hustle) 9. "Sleep Tonight" (Junior Boys) 10. "The First Five Times" (The Russian Futurists) 11. "He Lied About Death" (Metric) 12. "Celebration Guns" (Camouflage Nights with Kevin Drew) 13. "Soft Revolution" (The Stills) 14. "Calendar Girl" (Young Galaxy) I reiterate: they are NOT the same songs as the ones on Set Yourself On Fire.

i don't think this sucks. it's fun hearing songs reimagined that you've heard a million times.

on wiki you can find all of the names of the artists according to who helped with what, but it's still the stars singing so you can't expect them to change this to various artists as it's a collaboration, but more so that the other are featured, while the stars play the titular role

Ah ah ah, love the comment by emolotricity This sucks a lot :( I am sad. - it might not be down your musical alley but that doesn't mean it sucks. I'm guessing it is not what you were expecting. It reminds me the time I went to see Mr. Bean at the cinema, I had so many expectations about it that I didn't enjoy the movie, only years later when I saw it again was I able to enjoy it.

Hmmm.. well, this is Arts&Crafts' take on it (which is pretty much what you just said). Since the record label puts the re-mixers after the tracks, like in the album jacket, I suppose that's how Last.fm expects it to be done??
-
Acarsenal
I suppose, but as far as I know no one actually performed with stars, they just used the vocal tracks, somewhat like using an instrument, and still covered the songs. I'd just call stars the composer.
-
mikeropology
Oh, and just an afterthought.. Do You Trust Your Friends? wouldn't be labelled 'various artists' anyway because the songs are not covers done by other bands. It's a collaborative album; Stars sings on every track (that's why Stars gets top billing on the album cover, while the other bands are listed in the background behind the hand) ..and all the songs are, in actual fact, by Stars ;^)
-
mikeropology
That may be, but Last.fm seems to like to do things that way. --Any song that's been remixed is considered properly loaded into the Last.fm servers when it has (feat. xxx-xxx) appended to the original song title.. I personally think it's stupid. But.. whatevs.
-
Acarsenal
well it'd be nice if last.fm could tell you who the artists are for 'various artists', but it's still better than simply putting stars, cause these songs are not by stars, nor are the titles supposed to have band names in them
