MIRROR officially debuted on 3 November 2018, and they released their debut single "In a Second" (Chinese: 一秒間) on 25 November 2018. Mirror have been described by local and international media as "the new kings of Cantopop" and a "Cantopop phenomenon". They are credited for reviving the Cantopop genre, which had been slowly declining since the 2000s. Mirror's appeal in Hong Kong transcends demographics, and the group is regarded as a "symbol of hope" in a city struggling with political upheaval and the COVID-19 pandemic.

At the time of its formation, the band was a four piece consisting of high school friends Kees Walravens on guitar, Johan Saanen on bass guitar and vocals, Paula Mennen on piano, organ, synthesizer and vocals, and Peter Fransen on drums. In 1973 the band expanded its line-up with the addition of Philip de Goey on saxophone, woodwinds, and oboe. Their sole album was recorded over six days at the Stable Studio in Arnhem, The Netherlands. The album was titled Daybreak and was released in 1976, pressed in only 500 copies. The music is mainly instrumental and is influenced by Focus, Yes, and Pink Floyd. After the release of the album Mirror toured their native Holland extensively. But internal disagreements soon led to the departure of Johan Saanen and the band finally split up in late 1976.

UPDATED INFORMATION FOR : Mirror (Moscow):
MIRROR is a rock/metal band from Germany, founded by Mike Breeze, who was born in Moscow and moved to Germany after he graduated school.
MIRROR use lots of incfluences, such as visual kei, glam, gothic, classical music and folklore (mostly Russian), that create an original kaleidoscopic sound.
MIRROR released 2 albums:
"Shocking Debut" (2007),
"Valentine's Eve" (2012)
and 4 singles (each including non-album tracks):
"Red Dye" (2006),
"Heart Of Ice" (2007),
"Valentine" (2008),
"Glitter Critter" (2012).
MIRROR had played the first gig in 2002 and since the second gig in 2004 the line-up never changed:
Mike Breeze (vocals, piano, bass, balalaika, occasional guitars),
Ramin Andarmani (guitars, backing vocals)
Ian Weid (drums, backing vocals).
In 2005 Mike played a solo piano gig featuring mostly piano versions of Mirror songs, and Leif Astroid (aka Dancette Pleasure from German glam rock band The Pleasures) sang "Heart Of Ice" as special guest.
It worked so well that Mike and Leif decided to continue joint work in the studio, as well as on stage.
At first, it all took place as part of MIRROR recordings and live gigs, and sometimes as "Mike+Leif" live gigs - as a kind of side project.
The duet gradually evolved into a real band and the name SOLOWSHOW* was chosen.
SOLOWSHOW* concentrates on unplugged music in the studio and live, while the music is influenced by the same rock / metal, / visual kei / glam / goth kaleidoscope like MIRROR's music, plus lots of drama and cabaret elements.
SOLOWSHOW*'s line-up never changed since its first appearance in 2005:
Mike Breeze (piano, acoustic guitar, vocals),
Leif Astroid (lead vocals, keyboards, occasional percussion).
SOLOWSHOW* released an album that was titled after the band's style with the self-created word "Visuacoustic" (2012).
After that, the band immediately started working on the 2nd album...
The single "The Won" (2014) was first aired on 23. May 2014, Friday, ~6 pm CET (Berlin time) - ~midnight EST (Pennsylvania time) on American DJ CyberMusicLover's show on Power92-Radio.com (also aired via Nokia, Nobex, Global, Virtual Radio, Radio Tuna, Tunein Radio, iTunes).
SOLOWSHOW* constantly tour all over Germany and sometimes in Mike's home country - Russia, but also plan to expand their territories.
Nostalgia
Mirror Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And desire is all you feel
A photograph that made us laugh
And now your skin has such a thickness
That you can't tell what is real
Anymore
Keeps me turning back to you
And a feeling like nostalgia
For the dreams that we once knew
If you're feeling like what we were feeling is through
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia like you?
We were running to the future
When we fell into the past
A memory
When our lives seemed full of promise
Oh but good things never last
It seems to me
It's a feeling like nostalgia
Keeps me turning back to you
And a feeling like nostalgia
For the dreams that we once knew
If you're feeling like what we were feeling is through
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia like you?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
If you're feeling like what we were feeling is through
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia like you?
The song "Nostalgia" by Mirror feat. Dave Gahan talks about the bittersweet feelings of longing for the past and the memories of love that once existed. The lyrics describe the feeling of desire and how it can sometimes become a sickness that consumes you. The memory of a photograph that brings laughter highlights how tangible memories can become blurred and difficult to decipher as time passes. The thickness of skin mentioned in the lyrics could refer to emotional barriers built over time to protect oneself from hurt.
The song’s chorus speaks to the universal experience of nostalgia, how it can make us yearn for the past, and how it can leave us trapped in it. The line: "We were running to the future when we fell into the past" paints an image of youthful hope and ambition, but then a sudden realization of how quickly time has passed. The phrase "good things never last" suggests that the relationship may have ended on a sour note, yet the memory of it continues to affect the singer.
The repetition of the question, “why do I feel nostalgia like you?” highlights the uncertainty and confusion of still holding onto memories of a past relationship. The song speaks of how we all feel nostalgia from time to time, regardless of whether we’ve moved on or not. The haunting melody and Dave Gahan's distinctive voice provide an emotional depth to the lyrics, making the song a powerful ode to the wistful feelings of nostalgia.
Line by Line Meaning
As a thirst becomes a sickness
When wanting something so badly turns into a harmful craving
And desire is all you feel
When the only thing you can think about is what you want
A photograph that made us laugh
A picture that brings back happy memories
And now your skin has such a thickness
When you become desensitized to the world around you
That you can't tell what is real
When it becomes difficult to distinguish between truth and lies
Anymore
This is how it is now
We were running to the future
We were always focused on what was to come
When we fell into the past
When we were suddenly reminded of what we used to have
A memory
Something that we can only relive in our minds
When our lives seemed full of promise
When we were hopeful for what was to come
Oh but good things never last
Unfortunately, the happiness does not always stick around
It seems to me
This is my perception of the situation
It's a feeling like nostalgia
The emotion I am experiencing is similar to nostalgia
Keeps me turning back to you
Brings me back to the times we shared together
For the dreams that we once knew
For the hopes we had in the past
If you're feeling like what we were feeling is through
If you have moved on and left our shared emotions behind
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why am I still stuck in the past?
Why do I feel nostalgia like you?
Why am I still feeling the same emotions as you?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why am I still stuck in the past?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why am I still stuck in the past?
If you're feeling like what we were feeling is through
If you have moved on and left our shared emotions behind
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why am I still stuck in the past?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why am I still stuck in the past?
Why do I feel nostalgia like you?
Why am I still feeling the same emotions as you?
