"Ageless Beauty" was the fifth single released by the Canadian indie pop group Stars. It was the first single from the album Set Yourself on Fire.[1] The Boston Globe correspondent Bobby Hankinson considered the single to be a "pop gem" in a 2006 concert review;[2] Tampa Bay Times correspondent Brian Orloff shared a similar view, considering the song "a perfect gem of an indie rock tune."[3] "Ageless Beauty" was considered by The Independent to be "perhaps Stars' loveliest song".[4]
Speaking of "Ageless Beauty", The News and Observer noted the single for its "odd...combination of drop-dead-gorgeous tune and ugly words...that you've ever heard," lauding its "juxtaposition" that is "perfectly" repeated "again and again throughout the album."[5]
