rdfs:comment	The Records war eine englische Rock-Pop-Band der ausgehenden 70er Jahre. Bekanntester Song der Band ist ihre US-Hitsingle „Starry Eyes“ (1979). (de) The Records were an English power pop band formed in 1978. They are best remembered for the hit single and cult favourite "Starry Eyes". (en) The Records foi uma banda da new wave inglesa, formada em Londres por Will Birch e John Wicks. Segundo Chris Woodstra, no Allmusic, The Records são provavelmente mais lembrados por seu cultuado clássico, e hit menor, "Starry Eyes"; uma canção quase perfeita e que definiu o power pop britânico dos anos 70. Embora nunca chegassem ao sucesso através deste registro, sua produção de alta qualidade entre 1979 e 1982 não só mostrou-se melhor do que a maioria da época, com seu apelo atemporal, como também serviu de modelo para as várias ondas britânicas e norte-americanas de power pop desde então. Alguns foram longe, a chamá-los de "o Big Star britânico", o que, provavelmente, é uma comparação justa. (pt) The Records var en brittisk musikgrupp som var aktiv under åren 1977-1982. Gruppen bestod vid skivdebuten av Huw Gower (sång, gitarr), John Wicks (sång, gitarr), Phil Brown (basgitarr), Will Birch (trummor). Birch och Wicks var även gruppens primära låtskrivare. Gruppen vars musik var inspirerad av 1960-talsgrupper som The Kinks och The Beatles, samt tidiga 1970-talsgrupper som Badfinger och Big Star spelade vad som kallas powerpop. Deras första singel "Starry Eyes" blev också deras största hit. Den nådde plats 56 på singellistan Billboard Hot 100 i USA. Debutalbumet Shades in Bed blav också ganska framgångsrikt och nådde under titeln The Records plats 41 i USA. Skivan listnoterades också i Sverige där det toppade på plats 35 på Topplistan. (sv)
