Adam's version has the passion and performance polish of a professional superstar musician, and that is valuable to be sure. But the gentility, fragility and vulnerability of Keira's version, with its unguarded lack of pretense, is literally exquisite and thoroughly heartbreaking. It seems to capture the purity and uncompromised sincerity of a songwriter with his/her precious material that seems to pour straight from their hearts and onto the page. Adam's version is meant to be performed for a concert hall full of adoring fans; Keira's version is meant to be cherished like a secret jewel... one human heart at a time.

It doesn't matter whose version you prefer, Keira's or Adam's. You just have to remember Gregg Alexander wrote it. He's the real genius here :)

I'm so grateful that I've watched this movie

I would play Adam's version for an audience. I would play Keira's version for a special someone.

I prefer this version. In this version, you feel the agony, the nostalgia, the vulnerability which are not so apparent in Adam's version

I cannot accept that the fact the movie was criminally underrated, it was beautiful. It surprised me that Keira can sing, even without autotune she's still perfect

"I saw a lion kiss a deer." How life can be so unpredictable no matter how much you think you've seen it all. That's deep, man. Too deep.

she has such a sweet voice

*Keira's version is for a breezy spring day* ⛅🍃 *Adam's version is for a rainy Autumn day* ☁☔

This is one of those songs you play while you lay on the bed thinking about life.

This is such a beautiful film about human connection. Dan and Gretta might have gone on with their lives, but deep down, they will always remember the moments they shared when they were both vulnerable and falling apart. A beautiful film ♥️

Was going through a tough break up when I went to watch this alone in the movie theater years ago… I broke up again and this song makes me both sad and hopeful.. nothing in life is certain, cherish everything you love and live life, love life, love those around you, things change and we never know who is and isn’t going to be in our lives one day and not the next.

These lyrics... "Cupid's demanding back his arrow! "God, tell us the reason why youth is wasted on the young" This is so heartbreakingly true. We never appreciate being young.

I love how relaxing her voice is. It seems like society thinks the best singers should have a big, loud voice but I also like voices like hers. It's so gentle and down to earth.

This movie was so great. I always come back and listen to this song

One of the most underrated song ever.

Oh Keira, my heart is melting.

I remember watching this with my ex and she starts singing along to it. It's one of her favorite songs. Thing is, she really could sing. Unfortunately something happened and we broke up. Now every time I hear this, all I could remember is her singing. *sigh*

Keiras voice in these songs touched my heart

Keira is one of my favourite actresses!! I feel like this song has got a vulnerability and tugs your heart which suits the beautiful lyrics of the song!!

not just that this song is incredible, but so is Keira Knightley! OMG, OMG, that's all i can say when i heard her sing in the movie! and about this song, i gotta be honest, i love HER VERSION, although Adam Levine can hit the high notes in this song but no, HER VERSION is just flawless!

I just can't get this song out of my head

Keira's version is better. The movie also showed this. Adam's version is commercial and he changed a song for fame. It is louder and more upbeat and overdone. Keira's version is authentic and real and original. Not that Adam is untalented or anything like that but this song was created for a movie to show that music means so much more when it is real. Maybe more people liked Adam's version, but that is the point. The public will like the song that is more pleasing and basically a copy of all the other generic pop songs out there but music is for YOU. If you feel the emotions of the song, the connections, that is music. That is the true version. If you write a song for fame or publicity it will not be the real meaning of a song. It is a commercial tune to draw people in. Keira's is real, heartfelt, music. Even the movie demonstrated it.

LYRICS Please don't see Just a boy caught up in dreams and fantasies Please see me Reaching out for someone I can't see Take my hand, let's see where we wake up tomorrow Best laid plans sometimes are just a one night stand I'll be damned, Cupid's demanding back his arrow So let's get drunk on our tears And God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run Searching for meaning But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark? Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy? Woe is me If we're not careful turns into reality But don't you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer Turn the page, maybe we'll find a brand new ending Where we're dancing in our tears And God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run Searching for meaning But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark? And I thought I saw you out there crying And I thought I heard you call my name And I thought I heard you out there crying Just the same And God, give us the reason youth is wasted on the young It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run Searching for meaning But are we all lost stars trying to light ... light up the dark? And I thought I saw you out there crying And I thought I heard you call my name And I thought I heard you out there crying But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark? Are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

One of the best feel good movies of all time....after watching it I have not watch a single movie for more than 1month...really loved it

I never get tired to the whole soundtrack! I can listen to it foreverrrrrrr!

Sometimes I come to hear this song when I'm sad. Maybe Life is not as beautiful as they show us. Just maybe. I wish you all a happy satisfied life

My favorite song from this movie. I love this performance because it is intimate and I feel the vibration of love in Keira's voice. Congratulations Keira.

Wow, what a hidden talent. Pretty song. Makes me want to see the movie now.

ได้โปรด อย่ามองฉันเป็นแค่ผู้หญิงคนนึงที่ไล่ตามความฝันและจินตนาการเลย ได้โปรดมองว่าฉันกำลังไขว่คว้าหาใครสักคนที่ฉันจะมองแล้วพบเค้าจับมือฉันตลอดไป. " ดวงดาวที่หายไป "

first time I listen to this song it was from Adam’s version and I love it. Then I watched the movie and discover her sing. I was obsessed with this song. It’s been 5-6years now since I first met this movie. I still moved by it and love her sang. I appreciate your work Keira.

the scene where mark ears all the instruments is the really true value of this piece of work, for me at least, it means if you can imagined it can be real, like Stanley Kubrick says “If it can be written, or thought, it can be filmed.” This mixed emotions of music and films make this picture in something real

This is the best soundtrack ever just so so good and I can’t stop listening to it over and over again. So good

Loved the movie. The music is amazing! Her voice is soothingly addicting.

I borrowed a musician's guitar, microphone and set up to play this song at work, on my break. I was tired and I totally forgot the chords of the last verse and had to apologize to the audience. They were forgiving. One of my co-workers said that this song made her happy. God bless!

Spent all day yesterday recording a friend of mine singing this beautiful song... she surprised herself at times during the recording... she's got a great voice... and this song really highlights that sweetness, that innocence, in a way that so few songs do!

this is one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard

The moment when you discover this most incredible person and research everything you can to get to know more about her. It's such a pleasure to have the opportunity of having a glimpse of people whom you're probably never going to encounter but that can change the way you look at life. ❤️Keira

When seeing this movie I loved Adam's version...years later I've come to appreciate Keira's version so much more

wow never knew keira knightly could sing. and i love it

She's such a good singer. This is such a lovely song

If you really want to be blown away by Keira's beauty and her voice, check out her singing "Blue Tahitian Moon". I don't think many people have seen it; it doesn't have many views. But she literally sounds like Snow White, AND that scene was filmed live and was not edited at all.

yeah, I still prefer Keira's version. Sometime it doesn't need to be too powerful, though I do like Adam's version too. But this tranquil, silent, sweet yet agony kind of feeling reach my soul more.

Best movie with greatest song I ever experienced

"don't you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow" . "อย่าปล่อยให้ความทรงจำดีๆ มาพร้อมกลับความเศร้าเลยนะ" ‪#‎LostStars‬. ‪#‎BeginAgain‬

One of the best movie ever! I really love on how the story goes, those cast were perfectly into it..I watched it over and over again......

Saw this movie for the first time on Netflix I thought the music was awesome 😍😍👏👏

The violin and guitar just kills me. Love both versions.

I love her singing as well as her acting. She is Beautiful to watch and her now. Amazing young lady.

Keira is amazing.

Simply love this. The purity of her voice. Love the film too.

i need to watch this movie. every version of this song is amazing. adam’s, jungkook’s and keira’s

keira that was beautiful!!!! You need to sing more!! We don't care if you consider yourself not a singer, you have to keep on singing.

I am lying on my bed and listening to her..... This whole song has some magic in it ❤️.

Loved that movie a few years ago and watched it again on Netflix recently. The music is timeless.

I love both versions. Superb song writing.

A truly lovely song that just earned a well-deserved Oscar nomination!!!!

She is my favorite actress since I have memory and now listening her singing is like a gift from heaven, I'm in love with this movie and the soundtrack couldn't be more accurate

melody and rhythm in her voice........loved every song in this movie, mostly this song, also in adam's version and coming up roses.

This was the *"I cry everytime i listen"* song of 2014 :´)

Keira is just so perfect 😍

I am not suprised Keira - girl of many talents!!

My heart fills with warm love when I listen to this wonderful song with Keira's velvety, sweet, soothing voice

This is just too beautiful to hear everyday

Cannot beat the ingenious song-writer and charming British accent.

the "I thought I saw you out there crying, I thought I heard you call my name" part gives me the feels

I have watched this movie, and played this song over and over! That this movie has not been called a classic, is ridiculous! I love it. I wish there could be another. Like they said, in the end, "We could travel all over Europe."

This song is so beautiful it makes me cry.

I like Adam's version way more than Keira's. Maybe because Adam is my favourite singer. I don't know. But when he sings it...I just feel something.

wow...never knew that she can sing beautifully ! O_o

I ADORE this song 😍❤ so pure. You can feel all the emotions of her character

Can we just take a moment and appreciate how good the movie is actually musicians know

This version hits so differently....literally goosebumps throughout the song

I love this one. .. God, this is my favorite movie for last few years Why do we have to be lost stars? Why cant life just be happy? Why cant ppl just be kind???

The soundtrack of this film really came to me at a time I needed it most. The sweet melancholy of this song allowed me to feel sad and ponder heartbreak without going too low-it has this hopeful tone that makes you feel you aren’t alone in this. This is the ultimate breakup movie

The Composer actually cried when putting this together and I can see why, it brings me to tears too.

she's just... beautiful. Her voice and everything

It's crazy how this song can related to almost EVERYONE The good kind of crazy.

amo a fragilidade dela cantando e o filme em si....sempre volto pra ouvir as versões dela

I've never seen this movie or heard keira sing but I love her as an actress and her voice is bringing me to tears. SO beautiful.

The obvious symbols in this song are stars, constellations, astrological signs (Aries and Leo). I think this is a story between a sheep and lion representing two lovers. Their love seemed ideal, as compatible together as Aries and Leo in horoscopes, but this song is more about separation of two lovers when they were young (“I thought I heard you out there crying”). The singer now wonders if there can be reconciliation, as he is also feeling regretful (“Just the same”). The song poses a question: No matter the differences between two people, can it ever be that they can still love each other? As it alludes to the Bible, that a lion lie down with a lamb? (“Lion kiss a deer”) There is a similarity here. The answer: Young love can have partners that are selfish, too idealistic, and believing in fate without compromising. Partners break off their relationship then and there. Now when he is older, the singer realizes that the relationship he had before was great, and that a truly ideal lover is rare to find. If fate comes once in a million years, the YOUNG lambs who are “searching for meaning” are wasting their youth trying to find it. They are running from the differences (running from lions in the “hunting season”) when they should actually not run away, and make compromises. In conclusion: Have a little give or compromise in love. Otherwise, it is the common mistake that people make, and become like lost stars. Only a few people will click 100%, like lucky stars in the sky belonging together in a constellation, and who have met fate. The numerous rest of us are just shining. And does it really matter? You can barely tell apart a constellation from the rest of the stars. The lesson is that there is happiness in love even when it’s not perfect. -RidingMyBike July 4, 2015 at 8:55 pm

Adam gives the musical vibe and Keira brings tears in eyes.

I love both versions of this song, both has a different feel to it and both are equally great.

her voice brings me peace.. love this!

An adorable song which makes us to feel like heaven💗💗💗

Let’s all just admit this. We came for this beauty

I just saw the movie and I regret I've put this beauty of a movie on watchlist for so long. Keira's such a great actress!

Brings tears to my eyes every time. So beautiful.

Wow Keira Knightly. Way to go. I love your voice!

I had no idea she could sing! Her voice is so soft and sweet and beautiful. It just perfectly fits her.

It's been 5 years and I still go back to this whenever I'm down.

Definitely one of my favorite movies and the soundtrack was amazing

After I watched this movie, I went to TIFF premiere for both Keiry's and Mark's new films. Unbeknownst to me, their premieres happened to be one right after the other, and I saw them arrive separately, just missing each other. I wanted to tell Keiry so much that "Mark was here, go after him!". A gush of the unfinished feelings of their relationship in the movie just rushed to my brain. It was nostalgic.

Ever since I noticed this I cannot unhear all the times Keira Knightley is taking a breath before she sings.

Im totally in luv with Keira's sweet voice♡

Whenever i listen to this song, it feels like someone from heaven is singing such beautiful voice and person.

I am sleeping on the terrace watching beautiful stars,moon and listening to the song♥️♥️

I love love love her version! ❤ i sing it to my son as a lullaby I don’t know how that happened, just randomly every night before I sleep id play and sing it along while i was pregnant, when he was born I would still sing it, until now it brings him so much comfort and he falls asleep like an angel ❤ thank you Gregg Alexander for this beautiful song ❤

Keira has never acted better! And she looks amazing too, great costume design by Arjun Bhasin. Her clothes seem so ordinary yet striking. And her version makes me weep! Far more resonant than any of her Oscar nominated performances

Adam and Keira both do an amazing job with this song! I can't choose one over the other, because they each brought their own personal touches to it, and made it individually unique!! That is a testament to the talent and abilities of each artist!! Way to go you 2 ... Nicely Done!! ENCORE ... ENCORE!!! By the way... the movie was great as well!!
