Stars (Collabro album)
''Stars'' is the debut studio album by English musical theatre group Collabro. The album consists of selections from musical theatre and film as well as cover versions of two pop songs. It was released through Syco Music and Sony Music on 15 August 2014. Although receiving some critical reviews from publications such as AllMusic and ''(Renowned for Sound )'', both of which have argued that the album starts off strong yet grows weaker in subsequent tracks,〔〔 the release has been a commercial success. It debuted at number 1 on the UK Albums Chart, knocking off the multi-week hold on the chart by x by Ed Sheeran.〔
Examples of songs performed by Collabro in the album include "Bring Him Home" (from ''Les Misérables''), "Let It Go" (from ''Frozen''), and "Somewhere" (from ''West Side Story'').〔 The work has picked up mixed critical reviews, with AllMusic for example running a review that opined that the group needed more time to develop. However, the album has received a great deal of success such as in terms of international sales; in terms of the U.S., for instance, it reached #15 in the Top Heatseekers chart published by ''Billboard''.〔
==Background==

In an interview with Digital Spy, the band explained that the nature of being a musical theatre act means they don't consider their new album a collection of cover versions. Jamie Lambert said, "I mean, people say it's covers, but they're not really, If you cover someone else's song, a pop song, that's a cover; we're not covering musical theatre songs, we're actually performing them – that's the difference. Because otherwise, anyone who'd ever sang musical theatre would be doing a cover of someone else and that's not the case. You know, with musical theatre you take on a character so I think that that's our argument with it. We're not doing covers, we're a musical theatre band, we're performing roles, and that's the difference." He also said, "And I don't think there'll be a backlash, I genuinely think we have a very dedicated fan base, it's an amazing sound, and I really hope everyone loves it."
