about

The seven starchateers have already spent half their lives on tour together, playing together all over the world, lived in an old hotel on the Appenzell country side and built their own music club. This shows: the groove of this crew is right. You can hear and see it wherever they show up, from the craziest basement shack to fancy jazz clubs to the big festivals of Montreux, Bangkok or Bangladesh.

starch plays groove music. In its own unmistakable way. Imaginative and without stylistic or geographical boundaries. The choruses reflect the lightness of being on the Australian beach. The instrumental solos spray the color-swelling 24 hour vibration of Asian cities. The raps and grooves breathe the coolness of European urbanity. Polyglot Funk, which takes the hearts of the public by storm in all over the world.

lyrics

The fire in my heart keeps burning
The fire in my heart keeps burning

I’m lying on my back and I’m looking at the stars
As a matter of fact there is truth in these bars
Birds singing in the trees and the sun will set
World’s spinning ahead but we go backwards instead
Lights are out but the fire in my heart keeps burning
The world keeps turning while I’m singing this song
As I keep dreaming on
Lights are out but the fire in my heart keeps burning
The world keeps turning while I’m singing this song
So keep on dreaming on

Even when the sun goes down and the lights go out
The fire in my heart keeps burning
Even when the music stops at "too late"-o'clock
The fire in my heart keeps burning

Even when the sun goes down and the lights go out
The fire in my heart keeps burning
Even when the music stops at "too late"-o'clock
The fire in my heart keeps burning

The fire in my heart keeps burning
Keeps burning

There will always be love, there will always be hate
Small seeds are planted big trees collate
Life blooms with colour, red, black and green
Ivory keys make melodies and harmonies serene
They build walls for protection
Lie to win elections
Silicon attraction
Likes mean satisfaction
My life is a movie
Written by yours truly
Lights, camera, action
Lights may be out but the fire in my heart keeps burning
With nothing to fear as long as we can sing this song
We grow as the world turns on and on

Even when the sun goes down and the lights go out
The fire in my heart keeps burning
Even when the music stops at "too late"-o'clock
The fire in my heart keeps burning

Even when the sun goes down and the lights go out
The fire in my heart keeps burning
Even when the music stops at "too late"-o'clock
The fire in my heart keeps burning

The fire in my heart keeps burning
Keeps burning
The fire in my heart keeps burning
Keeps burning
Lights may be out but the fire in my heart keeps burning
Keeps burning
Lights may be out but the fire in my heart keeps burning
Keeps burning
Keeps burning
Keeps burning
