"Silver Star" is the lead song on the Four Seasons album Who Loves You.

Frankie Valli's contribution was limited to harmony vocals, since he was gradually losing his hearing in the 1970s due to otosclerosis.

[4] Billboard said that "Silver Star" is an "infectious rocker with a disco feel," saying further that it sometimes sounds like early Who songs.

[9] The group played the song on the 8 April 1976 broadcast episode of Top of the Pops (with Noel Edmonds hosting).

Valli also appeared on the same episode as a solo artist performing his 1976 hit "Fallen Angel".
