… Read Full Bio ↴There have been at least three artists sharing the name Camouflage;
The name is used by a German synthpop band, a Japanese idol group based in Nagoya whose name is officially styled as "CAMOUFLAGE", and a Swedish new wave band (later named Tapirerna).
German: The German synthpop trio Camouflage was officially formed in 1984 by vocalist Marcus Meyn and keyboardists/programmers Heiko Maile and Oliver Kreyssig. The group took first place in a radio-sponsored song contest in 1986, and before long, their debut single, "The Great Commandment," was scaling the German charts. Their full-length debut, Voices and Images, was released in 1988, reflecting the group's classic new wave synth-pop influences, but most of all Depeche Mode. 1989's Methods of Silence began to broaden Camouflage's sonic palette, yet the Depeche Mode sound still remained at the forefront. Oliver Kreyssig then left the group, leaving Maile and Meyn as a duo augmented by several studio musicians. By the time of 1991's Meanwhile, Camouflage had garnered a not insignificant following on college radio; the album moved still farther away from synthpop and incorporated greater instrumentation. However, with the advent of grunge, synthpop lost a great deal of its footing on college radio; Camouflage soon found itself without an American record deal. 1993's Bodega Bohemia, available only as an import, moved back towards synth-oriented music and took a darker tone than much of their previous work. The mostly instrumental Spice Crackers followed in 1995, after which the future of the band was cast into doubt; a best-of compilation, We Stroke the Flames, was released in Germany in 1997.
They released their comeback "Sensor" in 2003; "Relocated" in 2006.
CAMOUFLAGE is a Japanese idol group from Nagoya. They debuted at an event in October of 2012. Member Takasaki Shouko plays guitar during their live performances, and she is also well-known for her gravure work. CAMOUFLAGE sold out their first solo concert in the space of two days. Their first single "KIMOCHI Choukousoku" was released on the 3rd of March 2013, which was produced in a limited edition of 300 copies. There are currently seven CAMOUFLAGE members: Tatematsu Asu, Sakura Mone, Shiina Azusa, Takasaki Shouko, Yamashita Moe, Kamiya Runa, and Sanjou Katsuki. Three other members were once part of the group, but have since graduated: Itou Erika, Yashino Sakura, and Kawai Miori.
Aside from music activity, the members of CAMOUFLAGE are involved in various local entertainment: they have appeared in TV dramas, variety shows (including their own regularly-scheduled internet show, BILLY CAM(e)), and they also regularly host radio programs.
Swedish: Camouflage was a new wave / goth band from Gothenburg, Sweden. They released three albums in the eighties. The first one was "Camouflage" which came in 1985. Their second album was "En Förtjusande Vän" in 1986. The third was called "La La La" in 1988.
After their third album they changed their name to Tapirerna because of the German band with same name.

Camouflage Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you leave us
Broken minded, binded
We should keep trust
Deep inside us
There is more than meets the eye …
Sitting in a hole
Writing down your name
You’re the only one
Bringing out the sun
I wish the night away …
I will be lost
When you leave us
Feared by demons screamin’
We’ve got our love
Deep inside us
There is more than meets the eye …
In Camouflage's song Lost, the lyrics are filled with emotions and the fear of losing someone important. The first stanza talks about how the singer will be lost when the person leaves. They feel broken and bound to this person, and how they need to keep trust deep inside them. The singer believes there is more to this person than meets the eye, indicating that perhaps they are not fully aware of their capabilities or their true nature.
The second stanza describes the singer sitting in a hole, feeling small and insignificant. They are writing down the name of the person who they believe is the only one bringing out the sun in their life. They want to wish the night of their loneliness away, indicating that this person is the light in their life.
The final stanza is filled with more emotions, as the singer expresses their fear of losing the person. They are scared of the demons that may come out and scream without this person in their life. However, they believe that they still have their love, and they know that deep inside themselves, there is more than meets the eye.
Overall, the song is a powerful portrayal of loss and the fear of losing someone close to you. The lyrics are filled with emotions, and the singer portrays these emotions beautifully in their voice.
