The group's vocalist is Silvy de Bie (born January 4, 1981) and keyboardist/songwriter is Wout Van Dessel (born October 19, 1974). Regi Penxten is the producer and co-songwriter.
Silvy began her musical career at the age of nine on the Belgian television series De Kinderacademie (The Children's Academy). Belgian law prohibiting children under 16 from working, however, put a sudden end to this career. Later, she returned with the band "Lance".
Wout is a well known Belgian DJ. He and Silvy were acquainted at the disco where he was the resident DJ.
Sylver has not only toured its homeland of Belgium, but also North America, South Africa, Asia, Scandinavia, and Eastern Europe.

A month later, the album debuted at 16 and spent 49 weeks in the top 100. The single Forever In Love also made the charts.

Their fourth album, "Crossroads", was released in Europe on the 19th of May 2006. The first single from the latter album was "Lay All Your Love On Me".
A greatest hits album was released in 2007 featuring two new songs, including their newest single, "The One".

In addition to synthesizer and drum machine, Sylver uses guitar, piano, and percussion instruments.

Sylver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can you hear me calling
Don′t you turn me down
Catch me cause I'm falling
Thousand bruises love fuses
Won′t you comfort me
There's a burning
Tears and memories
I'm not giving up so easily
Enough is enough
Don′t leer to me
I′m not giving up so easily
So easily, so easily, easily
Turn your love around
Can you hear me calling
Don't you turn me down
Catch me cause I′m falling
Turn your love around
(Turn your love around)
Turn your love around
(Turn your love around)
Turn your love around
Thousand bruises love fuses
Won't you comfort me
There′s a burning
My heart is yearning
Tears and memories
I'm not giving up so easily
Enough is enough
Don′t leer to me
I'm not giving up so easily
So easily, so easily, easily
Turn your love around
Can you hear me calling
Don't you turn me down
Catch me cause I′m falling
Turn your love around
(Turn your love around)
Turn your love around
(Turn your love around)
Turn your love around
(Turn your love around)
