Background[edit]
The song was the fourth track to be released. Meaghan wrote the lyrics and gave it to Angie as a surprise. Ethan Dubbs produced it himself and they kept it for her album as another surprise song. This song was inspired when Angie was in high school and found out her ex-boyfriend Brodie is a bad boy as stated by Meaghan. It is also inspired by Angie sarcastically saying to Brodie "You're bad and I like it." Angie stated: "This song is basically about calling a girl's boyfriend a bad guy sarcastically and tries to improve his attitude." One minute of the song was leaked in August 27 as a sneak peek but the source became confidential on the Internet and wasn't spread. The song was uploaded to Angie Hillss' official PengTube channel on August 11 2013. It got over 6 thousand views on the same day. She uploaded the music video of Superstar and 24 hours later, it was the tenth video to reach 1 million views.
Angie Hills has performed this song several times. At "'The Superstar Tour"', her outfit was a blue tank top saying "OMG", black sparkly shorts, black striped high heels and her hair with hot pink highlights tied in a side ponytail. The setting was three stairways where Angie was waddling and makes her way to the audience hugging them.
Critical reception[edit]
Charity Black of "Penguins Right Now" gave the song a very positive review:
I've had to say, its another old school song by Angie Hills. I think its so cool to have old school in your songs. She can put old school dance in that song - it's cool, right? I heard about this song, I searched it on Pengtube and loved it. Could this song be a hit? Can Angie Hills gain fame for this song? It was one of the best songs ever. Its not only old school but way cooler.
It's a very good track. I recommend you to buy it.

Lyrics[edit]
The song can be listened here, but another artist covered it with different lyrics.
Remember my feelings, remember the night
My strong heart was breaking
My love ran to fight
Those moments I knew I would be someone else
My love waddled made me so closer
Be my bad guy, be my boy
Be my short-time lover
But please be my friend
You can be my bad guy
But please listen
That I never want you in my way again
Won't you be my bad guy, be my boy
Be my short-time lover
But please be my friend
You can be my bad guy
But please listen
That I never want you again
Yes I never want you again
(DJ Crow's part)
You once made this promise
To stick by your side
But after some time I just shoved you aside
I never thought that a woman could be strong
Now you'll show me how to get on
(Back to Angie Hills)
(chorus)
