1) A Japa… Read Full Bio ↴There are various bands/artists under the name Versailles:
1) A Japanese visual kei band
A Japanese symphonic metal band formed in 2007. Versailles' key characteristics are their rococo-esque costumes, dueling guitar sounds and heavy but melodic arrangements. The concept is a formula of "absolute beauty and extreme aestheticism". The duel guitars sound like rose vines grown riot over an agitated rhythm. Those sounds sketch the story of "The Descendants of the Rose". In August 2008, the band had to change their name because of a trademark issue in the USA. Another artist there called themselves Versailles, and warned the band through their lawyer not to use the name in American territory. So the band added "Philharmonic Quintet" after the name Versailles. Versailles was formed by KAMIJO (vocals), HIZAKI and TERU (guitars), Jasmine You (bass) and YUKI (drums). On August 9th, 2009, bassist Jasmine You suddenly passed away, only 30 years old. Due to this tragic event, the planned major debut on Warner Music Japan was delayed to January 2010. In September 2010, Versailles announced that their temporary support bassist Masashi (ex- ＡＬＰＨＡ and Ａｓｈ) will be the 6th member of the band, while Jasmine You will remain an "Eternal Member" of Versailles.

2) Dianna Marie St.Hilaire, singer, songwriter and piano player.
A emotional rollercoaster of piano keys, and a devious childlike outlook, Versailles little girls all mold together to form one unique artist.
The pain and torment of a sad child come at you with each delicate racing note. Versailles is darkwave that blends the vocals and playing of Tori Amos with an 80s new wave feel. Forming a rich catacomb of deep running emotions.
Following the release of her first EP Believe in 2005 she has had 3 songs released on Cleopatra Records in 2005,2006 and 2007. Versailles is on A Gothic Acoustic Tribute To NIN, A Tribute to She Wants Revenge , Stop Me If You Think Youve Heard This One Before (Tribute to The Smiths), and Gothic Divas. Two of these songs were produced by Gregory Butler who has also produced Switchblade Symphony.
Currently Versailles just got done with new album Broken Dolls released in late 2008. This album holds 15 songs very dear to Versailles based around the emotional side of abuse in many different forms. Following this release is a book of short stories written by Versailles. These stories "Wendy's Razor Blades", "Fade", "Mars", "Broken Dolls", "Pages", and "Legion" all show a girls struggle through different types of abuse and destruction.
Versailles went on a 3 week tour through the south, southwestern and northeastern United States for the "Broken Dolls Tour". Shortly after she went on a month tour with artists Bella Morte and Ego Likeness across the United States. Versailles is currently working on a new EP to be released in 2010 with producer Eric Greedy. Also Versailles is going to be in the newly anticipated film Black Room Doom by legendary producer Kim Fowley.

The song Sympathia by Versailles speaks of a dream that seems to be unfulfilled, yet worth holding on to. The first verse talks about wanting to hold on to the memories of a wound that cannot be erased. The wind stops blowing, and the stormy sea seems to have died, indicating the end of a difficult time. The morning sun rises powerfully and brightly, ushering in a new day. Despite this, the singer wants to see the continuation of a dream, holding on to the memories and scars of the past.
The second verse talks about the singer's desire to have two things that he thinks are important- a genuine love and true words. He is also aware that these may not exist, and the world is not perfect. The singer seems to have lived in the darkness but still longs for his dream. He was drowned in a fleeting dream and forgot even to exist as a person, yet the love that he feels for someone will never fade away.
The chorus expresses the singer's wish to keep the dream alive and erase all the pain of the past. He wants to close his eyes and let his imagination take him away, where he can embrace the feelings he carries in his heart. He knows that he is surrounded by darkness, but he is willing to pursue his dream.
Overall, the lyrics of Sympathia suggest that even when life seems difficult, holding onto a dream can be a beacon of hope, driving one towards happiness, and love.
