• "Constellations," Jade LeMac's starry-eyed debut single, launched her into the alt-pop stratosphere. She wrote the chorus when she was 15, composed the whole song a year later, and released the track on August 11, 2021.
• The piano ballad is about the thrill of intimacy when you're with your romantic partner.
  
  Hands on your waist
  Liquor is all that we taste
  Your freckles lead the way
  I trace your constellations
  
  LeMac uses celestial imagery to capture the sheer wonder of connection. Freckles become stars, and a lover's body transforms into a sky full of stories waiting to be discovered. "I've always loved the sky," LeMac told Xtra. "So I thought of constellations and a way to tie that into a song. Then I was thinking about the freckles on [someone's] body, being super intimate with that person."
• LeMac, who is proudly part of the LGBTQ+ community, left the identity of the song's subject open, allowing listeners to project their own interpretations.
• Canadian mixing engineer Jay "JVP" Van Poederooyen, who principally works with rock acts such as Simple Plan, Hinder, Boys Like Girls and Skillet, produced the shimmering song.
• "Constellations" is the title track of LeMac's debut EP, which she released in February 2023 when she was just 18. JVP produced the EP. LeMac told Illustrate magazine:
  
  "He and I have grown this amazing understanding of each other, and we openly discuss the writing and production of the songs, in real time. I think having such a good relationship with my producer has helped so much with the making of my music."
• The track became very popular on platforms like TikTok and Spotify, helping to establish LeMac as a rising artist in the alt-pop genre. The song was later featured on the Netflix series My Life With the Walter Boys, which brought renewed attention to the song when the show premiered on December 7, 2023.
