Q1: Is "shine like diamond in the sky" an official song title?
A1: No. The phrase is a colloquial hybrid search query. It blends the chorus of Rihanna's 2012 single "Diamonds" ("shine bright like a diamond") with the historic lyric from Jane Taylor's nursery rhyme "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" ("like a diamond in the sky").
Q2: Did Sia Furler write the track for Rihanna?
A2: Yes. Australian singer-songwriter Sia Furler wrote the lyrics and melodic guide track for "Diamonds" in approximately fourteen minutes over an instrumental track produced by Stargate and Benny Blanco. Rihanna subsequently recorded the lead vocals, matching Sia's distinct vocal inflections.
Q3: Is there an actual diamond star in the sky?
A3: Yes. Astronomers at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics confirmed in 2004 that BPM 37093, a dying white dwarf star located 50 light-years away in the constellation Centaurus, contains a crystallized carbon interior. It weighs approximately 10 billion trillion trillion carats and is unofficially nicknamed "Lucy."
