1) a Spanish alternative-pop-rock band which was founded in [year formed]1992[/year formed]. The Band currently consists of the sisters Christina Llanos (guitar/vocals) and Amparo Llanos (guitar), Jesús Antúnez (drums), and Samuel Titos (bass) who recently replaced former bassist Álvaro Díez. Their music ranges from heavy to sweet, shouting to dreaming, but always with a groovy drive.
Dover originated in the outskirts of Madrid at the beginning of the 1990s when the Llanos sisters decided to form a rock band encouraged by the alternative scene from Seattle. In 1994, the drummer Jesús Antúnez and the bass guitarist Álvaro Gómez joined in. One of the band's demo tapes reached the radio program Disco Grande on RNE Radio 3. The band then entered into a one-year contract with the small independent record label Everlasting-Caroline. Their debut album Sister in 1995 lacked promotion and sold poorly; however, the Spanish fanzine Mondo Sonoro included it among the 10 best national albums of the year.
After their initial contract expired, they signed with the independent label Subterfuge Records, which produced their second album Devil Came To Me. This album turned out to be an unprecedented success in the Spanish independent scene. A fragment from the title song was included in a popular Radical Fruit Company television commercial and the band got launched to national fame. While promoting this album, the bass guitarist was replaced by Álvaro Díez, who had already been part of the band at its beginning. The album sold over 500,000 copies and gained them fans also abroad in Europe and the Americas.
Their relationship with Subterfuge Records deteriorated and they signed with Chrysalis Records. In 1998, the band created their own label Loli Jackson Records. The next year they recorded their third album Late At Night in Seattle.
In 2000, they received the MTV Europe Best Spanish Artist award. In 2001, Chrysalis re-released their first album Sister including a bonus unreleased song Noche tras noche. In September that year, after tense recording sessions in Los Angeles marked by disagreements with their album producer Barret Jones, the band released their fourth album I Was Dead For 7 Weeks In The City Of Angels.
In 2003, they released The Flame, recorded in Spain and produced by Rick Will, an album that shows all the fury that has made them big without forgetting those great songs of melody and quality. Stephen Marcussen (Marcussen Mastering, NYC) did the mastering, a classic that has mastered a lot of the legendary records of the last 15 years.
In 2006, Dover released Follow the City Lights. It was recorded at PKO Studios and self-produced along with Daniel Alcover. The album was preceded by the single Let Me Out, and broke away from their usual sound to create a more dance-like style.
The band's 2007 release 2 is a greatest hits compilation, which exhibits the rock sound that brought them to stardom, as well as the band's new electronic sound.
The first single from 2 is entitled "Soldier."
2) An artist associated with the doujin circle Tokyo Audio Waffle, or en;dolphinrecords. He is a producer of a wide range of genres, from house to hip-hop, to chiptune, and to deep house.
You & Me
Dover Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm standing here on my pyjamas
The synagog
Now it is out time
It's our time to get all sticky
I know it sounds a little creepy
The synagog
Now it is our time
Falls apart when you get picky
No! Let's give it a try
The same old song
Just you and me
Your heart and soul
It's all I need
Na..Na..Na..Na..Na..
The lyrics to Dover's song "You & Me" are somewhat nonsensical at first glance, but upon closer examination, they seem to be about seizing the moment and enjoying each other's company without worry or drama. The first line, "Save the drama for your mama," suggests that the singer is uninterested in any unnecessary theatrics or complications. They are clad in their pajamas and standing at a place labeled the "synagog," which could be a misheard or made up word or a reference to a synagogue, a Jewish place of worship.
The second stanza suggests a desire to enjoy a physical connection with the other person, but the singer acknowledges that it might sound creepy. They encourage their partner to "feel [them] up," but warn that things might "fall apart" if their partner is too picky or critical. Nevertheless, they urge the other person to give it a try, to embrace the moment and the connection between them.
The final lines of the song are simple and repetitive, emphasizing the idea that all the singer needs is the other person's heart and soul. The "Na..Na..Na..Na..Na.." at the end could be interpreted as a vocalization of pleasure or contentment, a celebration of the connection between the two people in the moment.

Save the drama for your mama
Don't create unnecessary trouble, keep the drama away
I'm standing here on my pyjamas
I'm feeling comfortable and carefree
The synagog
A place of worship for the Jewish community
Now it is our time
It's our moment to shine and enjoy life together
It's our time to get all sticky
Let's get intimate and close to each other
I know it sounds a little creepy
I understand that it may come across as strange or unusual
Feel me up. It won't be tricky
Touch me, it's not difficult to do
Falls apart when you get picky
Things start to break down when you become too choosy
No! Let's give it a try
Don't say no, let's give it a chance
The same old song
We've been through this before
Just you and me
It's only the two of us
Your heart and soul
I want your love and passion
It's all I need
That's all I require to be happy
Na..Na..Na..Na..Na..
