"Der letzte Stern" (German: The Final Star) is a song by German boy band Overground. Composed by the Triple–M collective, it is a partially rewritten variation of the song "Blätter", which was written by Mike Michaels, MM Dollar, Mark Tabak, and Deema and produced by Michaels, Dollar, and Mark Tabak for Overground's debut studio album It's Done (2003). It was released as the band's second single on March 1, 2004, reaching number nine of the German Singles Chart and the top thirty in Austria and Switzerland.
