"Folding Stars" is a song by Scottish band Biffy Clyro from their 2007 album, ''Puzzle''. It was released as the third physical single from ''Puzzle'', on 16 July.〔(Biffy Clyro Article on NME )〕 ==Overview== "Folding Stars" was inspired by the death of Simon Neil's mother, Eleanor, in March 2004.〔''Kerrang!'' #1159, p. 22〕 The song has been described as a "huge, hands-in-the-air anthem",〔''Rock Sound'' #96, p.49〕 "the album’s finest heart-on-sleeve moment" and "raw, honest and breathtaking".〔(IndieLondon review of ''Puzzle'' )〕 Simon Neil has commented on the song, saying: The song was first performed live on 8 July 2007, at the Radio 1/NME Stage at T in the Park 2007. Mike Vennart of Oceansize, a long-time friend of the band, provided second guitar for this performance. On 26 August 2007, the band played at Leeds Festival and stated that it was the last time that Folding Stars would be played live. They however reneged on this decision when the song was played live at Brixton Academy on 21 November 2007. An acoustic version of this song was performed by Simon on his own at their Wembley Arena show in 2010. It was played again by the band on BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge on 19 August 2013, and later as part of the band's headline performances at Reading and Leeds festivals, 25 and 23 August, respectively.〔http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/biffy-clyro/2013/bramham-park-leeds-england-23c60c6f.html〕〔http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/biffy-clyro/2013/little-johns-farm-reading-england-1bc6058c.html〕 The physical release of the single topped the UK Physical Singles Chart, while the single overall peaked at number 18 on the UK Singles Chart. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Folding Stars」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
