about

Darwin folk-country songwriter and recent Northern Territory Music Awards finalist Crystal Robins releases her latest single ‘As Far As The Stars’ on Friday 1st December, 2023.

This third release from Crystal's forthcoming debut album, showcases her signature alt-country stylings complemented by heartfelt lyrics full of nostalgia.

'As Far As The Stars' delves into the poignant theme of the tyranny of distance, inspired by Crystal's relocation to the other side of the vast Australian continent. Reflecting on the global events of recent years, she shares, "This stunning but isolated city in the Northern Territory suddenly felt much farther away when you couldn't simply hop on a plane and fly home."

Crystal continues, "For many of us, even without the thousands of kilometres of distance, there was still that sense of isolation when the outside world seemed so unreachable."

lyrics

Verse
Footsteps on the ground below
Carry me out, into the night
Steady & slow
My eyes are drawn to a light above
A jewel box opening to anyone who’ll look
And I reach out my hand

Chorus
As far as the stars, so far away
As far as the stars, so far away

Instr.

Verse
The full moon rises through the trees
It's round and red, reflecting the heat
The colour of these long hot days
The times we’ve had, the ones we’ve lost
I can feel it’s pull, its weighing on me now
And I reach out my hand

Chorus
As far as the stars, so far away
As far as the stars, so far away

Instr.

Bridge/Coda
I’ve been looking to the sky for you
Looking far and wide for you
I’ve never felt so far
I’ve been looking to the stars for you
Looking far and wide for you
Oooh I’ve never felt so far
As far as the stars I’ve never felt so far
Oooh so far away
