The album has released today in HK, right? I am so nervous to leave my computer...afraid someone might upload when I am gone! I'm sooooo excited to hear the songs smile.gif

Gil and Char look really cute in those screencaps. That hairstyle would look ridiculous on a lot of people but it looks aodrable on Gil! But her hair looks a bit shorter...she got it cut recently I guess!

Thanks so much for sharing. Gillian looks so hot with that hair, I agree. Gillian looks like some ninja or Japanese warrior of some sort, so cool and strong. Yay, I'm so happy that Gillian is showing off skin these days especially after the incident too. clapping.gif

Oh my, I love that photo of Flying Fox of the Snowy Mountain. Gillian looks so fragile and weak, I love her. infatuated.gif

Yup, we're all in the same boat, just waiting for the album in someone's upload, LOL. loool.gif Don't worry, hm, people don't usually begin posting up links until tonight or tomorrow morning or sometimes, even later, you're safe.

The hairstyle looks nice, it's much more mature than usual so that's probably why it makes both Twins look really nice.

Go Gillian~ yeah.gif

It's to try to get in votes for JSG Round 2, so that's why they're singing it.

And the pictures look very pretty and youthful. (JSG ones)

But somehow the FFOTSW (Flying Fox Of The Snowy Mountain) picture, it doesn't seem to much like her 'death' scene, because it looks like she's smiling a bit.

Oh I see.

Yeah I was thinking that too. It doesn't seem like a death scene cause she was smiling.

Here's some more pictures of JSG. I'll upload the rest tomorrow

Hm, I don't think Gillian did any composing in the album. I was listening to a radio interview, and the host said that he has received the lyrics of their upcoming album already; he said he saw Charlene's name as the composer of 'You Are Not A Good Lover', so he asked how come Gillian didn't compose any since during the interview, Gillian sounded quite eager about getting involved with the production. By that, I think he means that Gillian didn't compose any songs. down.gif Anyway, Gillian answered that she did do some composing, spent a lot of time on it, and handed it to Ronald Ng. Gillian got no response, and it turns out that Ronald had forgotten about it. sweat.gif She said that she felt a little discouraged on her confidence of composing when finding that out. bleah.gif Gillian said that she's still doing some composing here and there right now though. On the side, Gillian spoke a lot and was super cute in that interview!

I heard that the album might be delayed on its release. The release date might be the 22nd instead of the 21st.

Aw so Gillian didn't get the chance to compose any songs. That's so sad, Gillian was all pumped up about this in the beginning. I can't believe Ronald actually forgot about it. What the? I hope she's ok. This is just wrong if you ask me. I'd be discouraged too. >.<

Is this the second time this happened? I mean, didn't Gillian had once given him (is it him?) some of her composing or lyrics and he forgot about it or did he responded last time? Well, I think that's just sad. After this, I wonder how long will Twins have solos again and be able to contribute to the CD with their composing or lyrics down.gif It's weird how he remembered Charlene's work but not Gillian's - what I mean is if he knows about this Twins composing thing and when he is looking over Charlene's work, won't he be reminded that Gillian also is part of it so she might have given him her composing to look over too? unsure.gif

that Ronald Ng is a bit weird smile.gif) . I think he's crazy , why can he forgot about that ?

What? I'm sorry but that was such a lame excuse, forgetting? There's no way that Ronald guy can simply forget about Gillian's composed solo and not do the same towards Gillian's partner Sa. That just sounds so fishy and highly unlikely, accidentally. wacko.gif Oh well, let's just hope that Gillian has an opportunity to sing an emotional ballad at least; hm, just hearing this piece of news already made my heart drop in terms of the quality on Gillian's behalf. down.gif

Oh well, I'm not anticipating that much on this album afterall. Don't want to be dropped from the sky without wings after listening to Gillian's solo after having so much hope. down.gif

I know, tell us about it. rolleyes.gif Even when you're watching a Gillian movie, you somehow think of Sa and vice versa, how can this Ronald guy possibly forget about Gillian? blink.gif How can he call himself a good lyricist if he can't even remember correctly and please do not tell me that he has a busy schedule, the first thing in this type of business is courtesy and respect, obviously, none is going towards Gillian. whistle.gif Sad. Just absolutely sad. You're right, now we will never know when Twins or Gillian for that matter will receive another opportunity to compose and interact behind the scenes.

Go Gillian~ yeah.gif

=D The font might not match with the theme 'Disco Fever' too much, but I couldn't find a font that stood out to me as something 'disco-ish'.

C/C?

*Sigh* This always happens when hearing news of Gillian. All the hopes we have of her of new opportunities always end in disappointments, in which most of them aren't even Gillian's fault. I was SO anticipating Gillian's solo composition to see what her insights on different aspects of life is, but of course, all the anticipation of it was worthless, seeing how she doesn't get a chance to compose her own song in the album.

That's really not fair! I mean if he got Charlene's, he could of asked Gillian where was hers and Gillian would tell him that she gave it to him, so he could look for it. Man..thats BS! dry.gif

I just saw 32 seconds of "Your not A Good Lover" MV and the songs sounds pretty nice! Gillian got curls in this MV. Though it looks new to me since I seen her in straight hair this month so its pretty pretty! Now I heard a little of Charlene's solo it sounds pretty nice. I want to hear Gillian solo now.

Here's some news about Gillian's solo:

Yesterday, Twins appeared at a radio station to promote their new album. Their album will be including two solo songs of each member; Gillian Chung expressed that others consistently pointed out that her way of portraying her solo song, 'If Not You, I Won't Marry', sounds extremely alike with Vivian Chow! Asking if Gillian hopes to become the second generation of a Jade Girl? She answered, "They just meant that my voice sounded like her!" Then do the lyrics speak Gillian's mind? Gillian denied, "The song was chosen by my producer; it doesn't have a special meaning." (Then will you not be marrying unless it's a specific person?) No, the song speaks about a scene of reminiscing. It narrates of how fortunate I am of not marrying this person; if not, then I wouldn't be as happy as now. (Is that how you feel?) I haven't had that thought before." As for Charlene's solo, 'You Are Not A Good Lover', it is composed by Charlene herself. Asking if Ronald Cheng gave her any comments, Gillian first answered, "Ronald? Do you mean Ronald Ng?" Afterwards, Charlene responded, "They're my own thoughts. He didn't give comments."

-----
Hm, then perhaps Gillian's solo is a ballad. I don't think Vivian Chow was that known for singing fast songs.

The MV looks like it's been shot back in January. blink.gif I swear, Gillian looks exactly the same as she did in the 'Conscience Discovery' MV. I guess they did spend a lot of time preparing this album. Anyway, I agree that Gillian looks quite nice in the MV, even with the curls. Ths shot with her in the long, white dress was beautiful. The duet sounds pretty good and catchy as well; I wonder how the solo one will turn out? Gillian is challenging the high notes in her solo line; I love how that sounded. It is beautiful, and it does sound like Gillian's made changes to how she sings. blush.gif

Oh yeah, the album's releasing tomorrow. It is delayed by one day.

I've listened to the first verse and the chorus of Gillian's solo from the 903 interview and it's a slow song!! =D
Most of the other songs on the album seem to be fast or 'Hing Fai' though....

Oh my gosh, I cannot wait for Gillian's solo then, after hearing all of these people praise Gillian as the next Vivian Chow; this has definitely re-ignited my hope!! shocked.gif Gillian has always had a strong and versatile voice, hopefully, this ballad will do the trick. sweat.gif yeah.gif Haha, Gillian is too funny and honest with her responses. Haha, Ronald Cheng. whistle.gif Hm, but the title of the song is quite misleading though, I thought that Gillian's solo was going to be a sorrowful song, waiting for her true love thing but sounds to me like a I will survive song, lol. loool.gif Well, hopefully, the ballad is as good as Twins' Thank You For the Breakup or better. yeah.gif

Hm, Gillian does look like herself in January. blink.gif I have to rewatch it though because Sa's hair and facial features look really up to date; I guess, we just have to observe Gillian's figure since she lost a lot of weight just recently even though, she was perfectly fine the way she was in the beginning. dry.gif

Oh, I love the song especially Gillian's solo verse. Yup, I totally agree, Gillian's singing techniques for that verse and this song is different. Seems like when Twins come together to sing the chorus, is it just me or does it sound like Gillian's voice is a bit higher and Sa's is on the standard notes? blink.gif Anyway, I love Gillian's voice in the ballads, so far.

Oh thanks so much! I just listened to it. The beginning bit does sound like Vivian Chow, though the rest you can tell it's purely Gillian's voice. I really like the song. The lyrics and the way Gillian sang the song is so beautiful. I'm happy with it clapping.gif It's just too bad we don't get to listen to something Gillian composed herself.

OMG! I love it! I'm listening to the 903 interview which is 30 minutes long, and their giving a 30-50 secs of each song. Summer Rain sounds nice. Charlene solo, I have to admit that it doesn't sound nice if she sings it alone but if its the Twins verison it sounds alot better whistle.gif But whatever cause Gillian solo sounds really nice! Ok ok now I have to get this album! Her solo rocks!

Oh yeah forgot to mention that I love the chorus part! Also when she was introducing the song I thought of Edison when she was talking about that guy. But the guy left her and she could have a better start. infatuated.gif

Oh...thanks for the link! I really like Gillian's solo. It sounds challenging and so 'Non-Twins'.

From what I have heard of the Twins verison of the 32 second MV release, I really like Charlene's solo too. This is also so different from the other Twins' songs. Charlene's voice doesn't sound different but Gillian's sure does - more sharp and high but not in a way that irritates the eyes, just compliments the song innocent.gif

I love both solos, maybe Gillian's more since I can't stop listening to the song. I'm putting this interview on 'repeat'.

Oh my gosh, I cannot wait for Gillian's solo then, after hearing all of these people praise Gillian as the next Vivian Chow; this has definitely re-ignited my hope!! shocked.gif Gillian has always had a strong and versatile voice, hopefully, this ballad will do the trick. sweat.gif yeah.gif Haha, Gillian is too funny and honest with her responses. Haha, Ronald Cheng. whistle.gif Hm, but the title of the song is quite misleading though, I thought that Gillian's solo was going to be a sorrowful song, waiting for her true love thing but sounds to me like a I will survive song, lol. loool.gif Well, hopefully, the ballad is as good as Twins' Thank You For the Breakup or better. yeah.gif

Hm, Gillian does look like herself in January. blink.gif I have to rewatch it though because Sa's hair and facial features look really up to date; I guess, we just have to observe Gillian's figure since she lost a lot of weight just recently even though, she was perfectly fine the way she was in the beginning. dry.gif

Oh, I love the song especially Gillian's solo verse. Yup, I totally agree, Gillian's singing techniques for that verse and this song is different. Seems like when Twins come together to sing the chorus, is it just me or does it sound like Gillian's voice is a bit higher and Sa's is on the standard notes? blink.gif Anyway, I love Gillian's voice in the ballads, so far.

Go Gillian~ yeah.gif

Actually, this song is actually quite bittersweet. It's not extremely sorrowful, but this character of the song is still having a hard time with herself. She's trying to move on, even by hanging the flower on the guy, assuming that the guy is getting married, but she still feels completely miserable inside. She is still hoping for her true love. This ballad is really good with the great lyrics and Gillian's emotional portrayal; it sounds a lot more mature than the usual Twins songs, which is a big highlight.

Yeah, Gillian looks like January, but Charlene looks very present. sweat.gif Maybe they shot Gillian back then, and Charlene now? The two of them didn't have any scenes together, so that could be possible? It just doesn't seem like it could be recent because even though Gillian had curls through all these months, her curls look slightly different from time to time. Anyway, I think it'll be clear when we get to see the whole MV.

I think you're right about how Gillian's singing at a higher scale. Gillian said on an interview earlier that their producers want to have their songs show how both of them sing instead of making them sing exactly the same because then, it would have no difference than having a solo artiste sing it. That's probably why Gillian's singing higher notes while Charlene stays at the standard notes. I'd really like to hear the full version of this song, seeing that Gillian is doing higher scales in there. I just love that solo line. blush.gif

I think the translated song title should be 'If Not Him, I Won't Marry'; it makes more sense as to corresponding to the song after listening to the lyrics.


Translated Lyrics of the two released verses:

His sparks and love have disappeared.
The two of us tug and pull, my heart feels like it's dying.
Each item has an expiration date; I grasp onto a hand of air.
Even if I love him faithfully, I still have to bear with so much.
Even if I hold on tight, and look at our past as a film.
Being together with him, if I'm not happy, then I should end it off quickly.

There's no reason for me to hurt myself badly. I'll take it as my pure luck.
Having the rights of being in possession of him was just a scene of play.
My pain and sorrows, watching a film alone, I have to cry until I remember.
I've forgotten about him, yet I really love him.
I've even said that if not him, I wouldn't marry.
I was even naive to the point of where my heart had not been tainted,
Then my heart was scratched and scarred by him.
If I can't have him, then I shouldn't love him.
I can just watch the years and sceneries go by with freedom.
True love has a price that one has to pay.
Even if that price is huge, I won't be one bit afraid.

I know. It sounded so good when Gillian entered to more climatic parts of the song. This has got to be one of Gillian's best performances!!

I didn't download the MV of 'You Are Not A Good Lover', but I saw it at this site: http://www.newaykb.com/ . When you get into the site, click the 'K Song Hot Charts', then a TV should appear, then click the blue button on the remote; the MV should be the first thing on the list.

Thanks for the link, but it's too laggy to where I hear singing for a sec, then it stops for a second, and then it starts again the same thing over and over again, to where I can't even focus on the song. But from the little part that I saw, the dresses on Twins look very nice!

And the scenes of them remind me of the 'Thanks for the Heartbreak' Mv. I guess I'll have to wait until that site goes back up before I download the music video.

Actually, if you play it once and let it buffer and lag, the clip will be smooth the second time you play it.

For Gillian's solo part in 'You Are Not A Good Lover', is it just me or is the 'Gik Ho Ban' (first three words) actually sung by Charlene? After listening to Charlene's solo version, those three words sound like her voice more than Gillian's. unsure.gif

It's still laggy, I let it play three times, and all three times it was still laggy. I was able to hear the overall song though, and it sounds really nice. The lyrics that Charlene wrote to it really matched well with the melody of the song. And after listening to the previews of the songs from the radio interview, it seems like this album should be pretty good. So even though Gillian didn't get to compose her own song, but at least this album seems decent enough to buy. =D

Also, that part that you're talking about, does sound like Charlene. But the people that do the KTV parts of Twins MV's tend to mess up, so it's no surprise to me that they messed up.

Really? Hm, that's weird; it usually works for me. unsure.gif Actually, Charlene composed the song while the lyricist, LinXi, wrote the lyrics. Regardless, it is still a good song. These Cantonese songs are definitely better than the Mandarin ones, even though they are mostly 'Hing Fai'/fast as well. I'm thinking of buying it as well since Gillian did make improvements in this album with high notes and vibratos. I just love her solo; that's my main reason of wanting to buy it. I'm still thinking of waiting a bit though. Just seeing how this album doesn't include the MV of 'You Are Not A Good Lover' already foreshadows a second version.

Yeah, they do mess up who sings what sometimes, but I just wanted some confirmation.

Yeah, there is a difference between the solo and duet version of the song. The duet version seems to have some extra bass in it while the solo version is more calm. I'm not sure of how to say this in English, but the duet version sounds more 'gik' (frantic? agitated? uptight?) than the solo version. sweat.gif I think it's because of the high voice of Gillian's. Charlene's version is calmer, but it's still very emotional.

Yeah, that's what I noticed too.

Yeah, when I first heard that solo verse, it was so high and clear, I wasn't even sure that was Gillian because I was still paying attention to the video, I didn't glance at the karaoke lyrics until that solo verse caught me by surprise and I had to rewind it just to listen to it again and that was Gillian! Gillian, I'm so proud of her! clapping.gif Oh so I guess, it wasn't just me who heard Gillian sing those higher notes while Sa remained as the base of the song. sweat.gif I'm so glad that at least the producers are beginning to do something different with Twins songs, that is something so refreshing to hear.

Thanks so much for translating the lyrics. The lyrics are also lovely but I have to say, Gillian's voice is what makes the ballad so lively and vibrant with emotions!

I agree; Gillian's solo doesn't really seem 'Twins-style'; it actually sounds quite mature and challenging. I love her solo, and I'm glad her producer chose this for her. blush.gif

Yeah, I like Charlene's solo too. Both versions are very nice. The duet version, obviously because Gillian used a different singing technique and tried some high notes. The way the standard and high voices came together complimented the song. The solo version is quite good because Charlene's emotions were well-controlled.

These three songs are probably the only worthy things in the album. sweat.gif

I cut a no DJ version of Gillian's solo, 'If Not Him, I Won't Marry'; I think it'll be better for repeating now. laugh.gif

Yes, Gillian's solo doesn't sound like a Twins song at all, that's why I'm so happy that Gillian successfully delivered each line, each verse, and each word so beautifully! I'm falling in love with the ballad more and more as I listen to it.

I agree. After listening to Gillian sing in the Sa duet and her own solo, Gillian sings differently in each. Gillian expands really well in her own solo while dots the duet with high climaxes; I'm not sure if I made any sense. wacko.gif Anyway, cheers to Gillian for portraying both songs so wonderfully! clapping.gif

Thanks so much for the link. I'm going to sleep well tonight. hug.gif

Really? Hm, that's weird; it usually works for me. unsure.gif Actually, Charlene composed the song while the lyricist, LinXi, wrote the lyrics. Regardless, it is still a good song. These Cantonese songs are definitely better than the Mandarin ones, even though they are mostly 'Hing Fai'/fast as well. I'm thinking of buying it as well since Gillian did make improvements in this album with high notes and vibratos. I just love her solo; that's my main reason of wanting to buy it. I'm still thinking of waiting a bit though. Just seeing how this album doesn't include the MV of 'You Are Not A Good Lover' already foreshadows a second version.


Okay, I'm kind of confused right now, I thought that composing meant writing, so I thought that Charlene wrote the song, so is composing making the melody of the song? =D Hehe...

Yeah, that's what I noticed too. Sa's voice is the base, remaining the same while Gillian's voice extends higher but overall, Sa's voice is more audible than Gillian's because normally, higher notes are usually for background purposes, so in a way, Sa is still the lead singer of her solo. blush.gif As for Gillian's voice, this album has been Gillian's best so far! I have to say, I love how Gillian sings very much, Gillian has definitely improved and polished her singing abilities so well; I'm still speechless and amazed. clapping.gif

Oh my, at first, Gillian's solo reminded me of Vivian and Joey mixed together, Gillian's voice is just so beautiful! I cannot stop listening to it! sweat.gif Oh, okay, after reading the lyrics, Gillian's response makes more sense now.

Yeah, when I first heard that solo verse, it was so high and clear, I wasn't even sure that was Gillian because I was still paying attention to the video, I didn't glance at the karaoke lyrics until that solo verse caught me by surprise and I had to rewind it just to listen to it again and that was Gillian! Gillian, I'm so proud of her! clapping.gif Oh so I guess, it wasn't just me who heard Gillian sing those higher notes while Sa remained as the base of the song. sweat.gif I'm so glad that at least the producers are beginning to do something different with Twins songs, that is something so refreshing to hear.

I think it's reasonable that Charlene is the lead singer since the song is supposed to be her solo to start with. I haven't really listened to the other songs for a second time yet since her solo captured me right away that I have just been repeating it for the whole evening. sweat.gif When the album releases, I'll be sure to listen for Gillian's other improvements; there are still one or two songs that they haven't played during the radio interview, so I'll want to take a listen at those as well.

Her solo didn't really remind me of Joey, but because the way Gillian sang her solo sounded more mature than her usual singing and more stable, it did resemble Vivian in a way, but as the song progressed, it was still pure Gillian. blush.gif Now I really hope this song gets plugged; it deserves to be plugged!

Charlene's voice is the base of the song, but Gillian's voice just adds some sugar and spice to it. laugh.gif I like how the duet version came out; it's not just the solo version with an extra person singing in it, but there are actually things that are different. Some bass is added in the melody, and it was intended for Gillian to sing higher than the standard notes. It turned out beautifully.

This may be the first step that Gillian matures in her singing and genres. shifty.gif You really wouldn't expect a song like this to be included in a Twins album. Man, this ballad is so addicting!! infatuated.gif

Composing is making the melody of the song, yeah. Charlene composed the song while the lyricist, LinXi, wrote the lyrics. I don't know; does composing mean writing? Now I'm kind of confused. sweat.gif

I always thought composing was making the melody of a song but in the interview Charlene was saying how the company made the decision for the music so that wouldn't be right...Also, does she play any kind of instruments? If not, I don't get how Charlene is able to compose the music for the song. I guess Charlene actually wrote the lyrics not the composition as the duet and solo verison's music is slightly different too... sweat.gif

It would make more sense if Gillian was composing a song as she played cello before and would have some understanding on music notes. Would be great if Twins can participate on their album again so Gillian would have another chance to compose and write lyrics which hopefully won't be left forgotten again... dry.gif

I am certain that Charlene composed the song. It was typed on the MV that Charlene is the composer while LinXi is the lyrics writer. I don't know if Charlene plays any instruments, maybe the piano? She was playing the piano in the 'Girl School Boy Student' MV, but I don't know if she actually knows how to play it. She might've gotten help on the composing; she did say that she spent three years composing this song, and the MV also printed that Ronald Ng is the arranger of the song. The arranger has the job of connecting the melodies together and making edits, so maybe Ronald did more than the usual to help Charlene; he might've been the one to add the bass to the duet version.

I really hope that Gillian can have some participation in her albums later on, maybe Ronald can finally get back to her with her projects. dry.gif Gillian said that he told her he'll get back to her after he makes edits to them, but he ended up forgetting. dry.gif Can't Gillian give her projects to someone else for comments/suggestions/edits? Ronald Ng might be really famous, but there are other good composers out there, who, mind him, wouldn't forget about someone's work. rolleyes.gif

I think Charlene composed it by humming out the tune, in the interview she said that she would hum it in the shower and stuff, so maybe if she hummed out something nice, she would record it and maybe then when she got the whole song planned out on how it would go, she hummed it out or something to Ronald Ng, and then he played it out on the piano?

And I don't think either Twins play an instrument currently. I remember this interview that asked if they would play an instrument in a concert, similar to Lee Hom's concert, and they said that they wouldn't because all they would be doing is just memorizing how to play it, and not playing it based on years of practicing. So I doubt any of them play an instrument as a hobby.

Thanks Little_Purple_Bell for the non-DJ one. She started to annoy me. LOL. If you didn't know that it was Gillian who sang it, you would of thought it was someone else!

YES! The album came out today. I would if anyone got it online to download? unsure.gif
