Fresh from their performance at Wayhome Festival over the weekend, Stars is turning to Queen Bey as inspiration for their latest 2016 monthly cover series.
When asked why they chose Beyonce’s “Hold Up” they explained: “Because we love it. Because she’s the queen of pop and we’re not. Because it’s, very oddly, right in Torq’s singing range. We don’t know. We don’t know anything anymore.”
“At least there’s this: A song about love. It’s all we’ve ever had. It is all we will ever have,” Stars added. “And we are fools to have counted on anything else. Happy last summer on earth everyone. Beyonce has got you.”
