1) Twins is a canto-pop duo from Hong Kong created in 2001 by mogul Albert Yeung's Emperor Entertainment Group (EEG). Twins consists of Charlene Choi Cheuk-Yin and Gillian Chung Yan-Tung.
They are one of the hottest groups in Hong Kong, and are wildly popular across China and Asia, and are known throughout the world.
BIO
Charlene Choi was born in Vancouver, Canada on November 22, 1982. Gillian Chung was born in Hong Kong on January 21, 1981.
Twins started their career in the summer of 2001, and are best known for the song "Girls' School, Boy Classmate" (女校男生) from their first EP.
Before signing with Emperor Entertainment Group, Chung studied at Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in Melbourne, Australia. Chung had also worked as a part-time model during one of her summer vacations in Hong Kong.
Similar to Chung, Choi was also a part-time model who had appeared in several advertisements. She became famous after her participation in the television program Y2K, organised by Radio Television Hong Kong (RTHK).
Choi and Chung were introduced to each other by their agents. They subsequently auditioned for and later formed the band today known as Twins.
The Hong Kong musical industry has shown, many pop group bands break-up after they acquire a considerable level of popularity. The Twins are not immune to this and there have been rumors that Twins is also facing the same fate. It has been suggested by EEG that their concerts due for early 2006 may be their last. However these rumours have been around before and have proved unfounded and purely for entertainment purposes in generating gossip for tabloids.
At the 2006 Hong Kong Entertainment Awards ceremony Choi tearfully acknowledged that there have been criticisms of the Twins' singing abilities and that she hoped that they could better improve in the coming year.
Twins' fate in the coming future
Twins overcame rumours of splitting up when they attended the May 2006 MTV Asia Awards in Thailand together. They were nominated for and won the Hong Kong Most Popular Singer Award. Twins garnered many more votes than Andy Lau, who was predicted to take home this award. This is arguably the best award for Twins.
(February 2007) They have also recently celebrated their sixth year together in the Hong Kong music industry and with this the release of a special sixth anniversary new+best selection CD/DVD. Most rumours of a split have ceased and they have reaffirmed to their fans they will celebrate in another six years time.
Twins announced its "temporary" dissolution in July 2008, four months after Gillian was caught up in the Edison Chen photo scandal. Charlene said she was highly optimistic that they will reunite "some day"
2) In 1980, Sven Dohrow and Ronny Schreinzer decided to put a new band together, after they had played in various bands as a guitar-player and a drummer. In the beginning they were inspired by bands like Tubeway Army, Gary Numan, OMD and Depeche Mode.
The name "TWINS" might sound a bit funny for english speaking fans because Sven and Ronny are definitely no twins (you guessed it, Einstein) and the name itself isn't very ingenious. The idea behind the name was to describe the way of working when they put their music together. In fact, there are no other persons involved during the process of making a TWINS record. Sven and Ronny are the composers, arrangers, musicians and producers and they are also responsible for mixing and mastering of the final product.
Their first single "The Desert Place" turned out to be a real dancefloor-smasher in Germany and the remixed long-version of this song entered the US-Billboard-Dance-Charts in 1981. The big European breakthrough came when they entered the Italian charts with their song "Face To Face" and it was one of the best-selling singles in Italy 1983.
After "Face To Face" they hit the Italian charts a few more times with songs like "Not the loving kind" and "Ballet Dancer". Due to the success in many European countries, some of the German radiostations started playing their songs and all of a sudden the TWINS had a chart-hit with "Ballet Dancer". During these days it was very unusual for a German dancefloor-band to have success in their own country. However, they next titles to hit the German charts were "Love System" and "Love in the Dark".
Due to their big success, Sven and Ronny had to put together a live-band because the fans wanted to see them on stage as well. The TWINS had the chance to prove that they were no "one-hit-wonder"
and according to their fans, their live-act was worth the money. They did many tours throughout Europe with their new five piece band, including a drummer who turned every show into an exciting event due to his powerful support for every TWINS song. A bit later the band set-up was changed again. The fact that Ronny had played drums for many years, enabled the TWINS to add more excitement to the bands live-shows by adding a few parts for two drummers.
By the end of 1987 after the TWINS had released their album "Hold on to your dreams" they were offered to do a tour in the Soviet Union which brought them to Moskow and Leningrad. During these 10 concerts the had the opportunity to play in front of a 120.000 people audience.
After the tour was finished Sven and Ronny decided to take a break and to produce some other artists in their own studios. In 1991 the TWINS had their "comeback" when they released a remix album of their greatest hits which was called "The ClassicsRemixed". The success of this CD was overwhelming and they thought that it's about time to put together a new album as well.
It took them nearly two years to finish this next album because they wanted to make the album as good as possible. The album was called "The Impossible Dream" and the song "Tonight" which was also featured on the album, made them hit the charts once again.
To complete their line of greatest hits CD's, they released the "12inch Classics"-CD in '94, which features many long-versions and mixes based on their greatest hits. In recent years the TWINS played a few concerts in Germany with their new live-band. Ronny and Sven are currently working on a new album.
3) Serbian dance-pop gruop
4) Noise musician James Raymond of California
5) Little is known about Twins the demoscene musician, beyond the fact that (s)he/they were in the demogroup Phenomena, and active in the late 1980s/early 1990s. Some songs that should still be easy to find on various demoscene archives include "The Seventh Sea," "Starter," "Brilliance," "Digital Dream," and "Speedometer."
6) A french shoegaze band from Lyon
7) TWINS (the acronym from which the album derives its title, if one’s curious about the order of origin) is the mutant machine-pop project of Atlantan producer, label operator, and all-around aesthete-visionary Matt Weiner. Having spent the better part of a decade reveling in a moody murk that intersects seductive synth-pop with Featureless Ghost and grotesque industrial-dance grooves in his own right as TWINS, Weiner has more than proved his sincerely sinister and auspiciously artful finesse of synth-based music. Operating from his home studio, arrayed with various tools of the trade, Weiner tempers his subtle scourges of sound with an unending sense of bold exploration, processing tracks of pulse-heavy aural catharsis. When performing these songs live, he brings an array of hardware to back up his flooring vocal performances, using his entire being to work the audience into a frenzied trance. When not making music as TWINS, Weiner also runs the CGI Records label and co-runs the DKA label, between the two releasing music from Boy Harsher, Profligate, Alex Falk, High-Functioning Flesh, VALIS, Scott Fraser, Beau Wanzer, Featureless Ghost, Golden Donna, and more. Weiner also performs in the duo Pyramid Club with Chris Daresta, and produces music in the studio with Stefan Ringer as SM42 and with the esteemed CH Rom as Wo.
Death
TWINS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And if I failed you, I can't say how many years it took
To get things this wrong, oh well
I tried to show you how I feel about you
But it came out sharp and cruel, like her
Our time will come when we will look back on this day
And wonder how things went so wrong, oh well
And I'll see you in the sea of light, if you want
In the fields of sun that shone so brightly down
I'll be resting face down in the pool below the ground
Face down in the pool below the ground
And when this song is done, we might as well just let it run out
Believe me that I tried to tear it down amid the razor wire
But in my blood there lives a wolf that howls a dark familiar song
So just point the silver bullet to my skull and end it all
And I'll see you in the sea of light, if you want
Where that beam so brightly casts a gorgeous glow
In the fields of sun that shone so brightly down
I'll be resting face down in the pool below the ground
A way, a way
A way into the light
We go, we go
Away into the night
The lyrics of TWÏNS's song "Death" depict feelings of regret, failure, and contemplation of suicide. The opening lines speak of finding oneself cold and blue, symbolizing a state of emotional and perhaps physical distress. The singer expresses remorse for everything they have done and acknowledges the impact their failures may have had on others. They lament the time it took for things to go so wrong, suggesting a prolonged period of struggles and mistakes.
The next verse emphasizes the singer's attempt to communicate their feelings to someone, possibly a loved one. However, their attempt comes across as sharp and cruel, reminiscent of another person who may have hurt the recipient in the past. The lyrics evoke a sense of longing for a time in the future when they can reflect upon this day and wonder how things spiraled out of control. Despite the negativity expressed, there is a faint glimmer of hope as they mention seeing the recipient in a "sea of light," suggesting a desire for reconciliation or forgiveness.
The following verse reveals a deeper layer of despair and desperation. The singer admits to trying to tear down everything, metaphorically represented by razor wire, but finding an inner struggle within themselves. They describe this internal conflict as a wolf that howls a dark and familiar song, possibly alluding to their own demons or self-destructive tendencies. They even go as far as suggesting that ending their life with a silver bullet to their skull might be a solution to their pain.
In the final stanza, there is a shift in tone as the lyrics mention venturing into the light and the night. This could signify a metaphorical journey towards understanding or acceptance of their dark thoughts and emotions. The repetition of the words "a way" and "we go" may imply determination to find a path forward, even if it means facing the unknown. Overall, the lyrics of "Death" delve into themes of regret, inner turmoil, and the search for solace amidst emotional turmoil.
Line by Line Meaning
If you find me cold and blue one day, I'll regret everything
If I am found lifeless and pale one day, I will feel immense remorse for all my actions and choices
And if I failed you, I can't say how many years it took
If I disappointed you, I cannot express the immense duration of time it took for me to do so
To get things this wrong, oh well
To have made such grave mistakes, well, it is a regrettable reality
I tried to show you how I feel about you
I made an effort to demonstrate the depth of my emotions towards you
But it came out sharp and cruel, like her
However, it came across as cutting and harsh, similar to the way she behaves
Our time will come when we will look back on this day
There will be a moment in the future when we reflect upon this specific day
And wonder how things went so wrong, oh well
And ponder how circumstances took such a drastic turn for the worse, well, that's life
And I'll see you in the sea of light, if you want
If you desire, I will encounter you in the luminous expanse, surrounded by radiance
Where that beam so brightly casts a gorgeous glow
Where the intense beam emits a stunning and bewitching luminosity
In the fields of sun that shone so brightly down
Within the open meadows where the sun bestowed its brilliant radiance upon us
I'll be resting face down in the pool below the ground
I will be lying motionless with my face submerged in the water beneath the earth's surface
And when this song is done, we might as well just let it run out
Once this song concludes, it would be fitting to allow it to naturally fade away
Believe me that I tried to tear it down amid the razor wire
Please trust me when I say I made a genuine attempt to dismantle it amidst the barriers and dangers
But in my blood there lives a wolf that howls a dark familiar song
However, within my essence resides a wild beast that cries out a melancholic, yet familiar tune
So just point the silver bullet to my skull and end it all
Therefore, simply aim the lethal projectile at my head and bring an end to everything
A way, a way
A path, a path
A way into the light
A route leading towards illumination
We go, we go
We proceed, we proceed
Away into the night
Departing into the darkness

She survived MIAMI (AP) — Three-year-old twins died after being found unresponsive in a car parked along Interstate 95 in Miami early Friday, and the female driver was critically injured when she jumped off an overpass when police arrived, authorities said.
The investigation had traffic tied up north of Downtown Miami and was delaying commuter trains.
Miami-Dade County Police said 911 calls were received at about 2 a.m. about the boy and girl, who were in the backseat of a car parked on the Golden Glades Interchange where I-95 meets Florida’s Turnpike. It is one of South Florida’s busiest traffic spots. Passersby were attempting CPR.
When officers and fire rescue arrived, the woman jumped off the overpass onto train tracks well below. Officers found the children, who were taken to the hospital and pronounced dead. No information on a possible cause has been released. The woman was also taken to the hospital, where police said she was in critical condition.
Police said they have not determined the relationship between the woman and the children. No names have been released.
“Right now our investigators are working to piece this tragic incident together,” Detective Andre Martin told reporters.

Well pretty clear she was responsible and took her own life. That's rough.

There is no way to know any of that. Just calm down and wait for the story to unfold. There is no need to just make stuff up.
@trm4life
Fine, ATTEMPTED to take her own life. Yeesh
@missj.d9187
It's a possibility but too early to judge yet. We had a mum in my city who jumped of a cliff within hours of finding her child had died of sids. It is suspicious that both children have died but too early to judge. Rest in peace little ones ❤

So sad, whatever happened to those children to cause their deaths shouldn't have.
