Shooting Stars is a 2008 song by Australian electronic duo Bag Raiders that found a second life as an internet meme in 2017. Short edits paired the track with people and animals falling, floating or diving, then composited them over colourful galaxies and deep space backgrounds. The format spread quickly across Vine successors, YouTube and social feeds because the setup was simple to copy with any falling clip. It remains a shorthand for turning an awkward tumble or blank stare into something oddly majestic and cosmic.
