| the guy who posted about the russian bit was right. i always felt that battlescars was what the guy was thinking about during the war, and on the way home (and when I finally wash ashore, I'm coming back to kiss the girl I kissed before, etc) and shooting stars was what actually happened. pretty sad, indeed | |

| hmmm never heard the russian theme pertaining to this (though god knows ozma loves their russian themes ehehe) but i always thought rrp3 was before they got into that.. hmm something to think about... anywho this is a wonderful song.. but really really depressing in a way (though as mafekire said strangely up-beat) | |

| this is like my fave ozma song. they are a really great band and deserve loads of credit! this song makes me sad ind kind of a happy way because of: every night i see a shooting star and wonder if it's landing where you are if you can see it then you can't be far and if that's the way you do it then that's the way you find your love" | |
