Track Description
Available in:
"Music Sounds Better with You" is the only song by the French house trio Stardust, released on 20 July 1998. Stardust comprised the producer Thomas Bangalter, the DJ Alan Braxe and the vocalist Benjamin Diamond. They wrote "Music Sounds Better With You", a dance track, using a guitar riff sampled from the 1981 Chaka Khan song "Fate".
"Music Sounds Better with You" was initially released on Bangalter's label Roulé. It was followed by a wider release on Virgin Records, with a music video directed by Michel Gondry. It debuted at number two on the UK Singles Chart in August 1998 and stayed there for two weeks, becoming one of the UK's bestselling singles that year. It also topped the US Billboard Dance Club Play chart for two weeks. It is certified double platinum in the UK, platinum in Australia, gold in Belgium and silver in France.
"Music Sounds Better with You" received positive reviews and has been named one of the greatest dance songs by several publications. Stardust recorded further demos, but decided to disband, believing this created mystique.
The "Music Sounds Better with You" music video was directed by Michel Gondry. In the video, a young boy constructs a model glider over several days while the members of Stardust, wearing metallic suits with faces painted silver, perform on television. DJ Mag described the video as "charming" and "dreamy". The Insomniac journalist Jonny Coleman wrote that the video "helps reinforce the notion that this whole Stardust concept is supposed to exist in some other familiar but foreign liminal space, something ghostly but still warm and inviting".
