Review of gareth haze’s new song ‘stars’ – gareth haze’s new single“stars”caught me somewhat off guard. It’s one of those songs that sneaks up on you, starting off with a cool, easy groove that instantly has your foot tapping. Before you know it, you’re knee deep in thoughts about life, and what it really means to be remembered.The tune itself is like a modern throwback. It reminds one of the unrefined, unfiltered energy of the ’90s alternative era. There’s something about the guitar tone and rhythm that gives it this nostalgic spice. It’s reflective, the kind of track you can vibe to and still find meaning in.“so, one day when i’m old and it’s time to leave this place / please don’t bury me six feet down in a fancy wooden case,”the lyrics are what really stay with you.
When gareth sings, you can almost feel him peeling back the layers of ego and expectation. It’s a man’s quiet reckoning. Humble, raw, and profoundly human. An honest reflection on what actually matters when all is said and done.And then there’s that powerful verse:“i don’t need an ornate tombstone to tell where i’ll rest / and i don’t need no one to tell me at least i tried my best…”it’s a deeply grounded and humble statement. Gareth isn’t chasing applause or validation. You get the sense that this song came from a very introspective headspace, maybe a point in life where he’s looking inward, reassessing what really counts.
The line“i just need the ones i truly love to still want me around”says more about love and connection than a thousand love songs.The lyrics,“burn my body down to ash and blast me into space / so, when you look up at the stars, then you might just see my face,”it’s poetic, bittersweet, and weirdly comforting. Like he’s found peace in the idea of becoming part of something bigger. The universe, the people who remember him, the music itself. The only things that will actually matter…“stars”is one of those songs that makes you pause mid-listen and just feel. It’s reflective, a little melancholic, but also strangely uplifting. Gareth haze has created something that balances soul searching lyrics with a cool, catchy tune.
