"She's Like a Comet" was the second and last single from Kosciuszko, the fifth album by Australian alternative rock band Jebediah, released in 2011 on Dew Process. Singer Kevin Mitchell wrote the words and dashed the song off in almost no time, and it runs on one loop, E, F-sharp minor and A, the same chords for verses and chorus alike. Mitchell has admitted he didn't notice until after it was recorded: proof that a bright tune can ride three chords a long way.

Dave Parkin produced and recorded it with the band, and Chris Shaw mixed it. Alex Ryan's video, shot in Sydney, tips its hat to manga and giant-monster movies, with Alycia Debnam-Carey as a superhero who beats a giant monster in a miniature city. It won Most Popular Single at the 2011 West Australian Music Industry Awards.
