Starfire is the first album by Jørn Lande's solo project Jorn. It was released on 21 November 2000.
It has mainly a melodic hard rock sound and several cover songs of his favorite bands. The album features members of his two then-current bands Ark and Millenium.
Lande said in interviews that the album is more of a demo thing than a full-length album with high production, which was much more improved on his next albums.
