Who sings better in Twins'? Gillian or Charlene?

Twins:



I choose Charlene, she can hit high notes very well!
j033y
I think Charlene sings better too. Gillian has sort of the same voice as any other female artists but Charlene is different.
bluehearts
I don't think they have much songs that require them to hit a high note. Most of the songs are very standard notes...

I reckon Gillian have a more unique voice because most of the singers in HK have very deep voices and most of the time it's not because of vocals or whatnot.

Anyways, are you sure this is in the right section of the forum?

I reckon charlene sings better because when she sing her emotion always appeal towards the song and she has a unique voice compare to other artists. but is sad that charlene hardly have any duet in which she can mix her voice with a guy voice. Charlene and Nic's voice mix really well. charlene can really hit the high beats and i love how she add emotion into her solo parts in twins songs.

i think they blend very well
charlene with the deeper voice and gillian with the higher voivce.

same thing over and over again. to the topic starter, it so obviously you like char more. so why dont you go to her thread and praise all you want. Start this kind of compare is so childish. it getting bore after while, and it caught both fans to bash other's idol.


what make you think that she like charlene more??? is it because
she say that charlene sing better?
her icon is gillian not charlene. beside, what is wrong if she praise charlene???
if you hate charlene, know one is begging you to say anything nice about her, go ahead and praise your idol instead...i don't find it childish, it is those people who always bash other people is the childish one. n_thumbdown.gif
she is not saying anything bad about gillian anyways...
9h00n6
i agree, your kinda over reacting.
She just stated that she thinks charlene sings well.
She didnt say anything bad about gillian.
She obviously likes twins and i dont think you be so harsh
or you'll just push fans like her to favor one only.


Gillian and Charlene are both great in singing and acting.
I will always support both of them and hope for another six years.
TWINS FAN!

I think Gillian's voice is better because her voice is softer, smoother, and a undescribable, unique feeling on me when she sings, it makes me wants to hear more. Char's voice is stronger, but a little weird to me.... *no offense* =]
importdude
They both sound good, yah..
but i think Gillian has a better voice.. Thats what i think according to my ear:P
Kenway
Personally ... i feel that Charlene can sings better .. even for Live singing .. Gillian always go out of tune ...
storm2
i think both of their tones are really good...but they have to sing together that makes their voice sound much better..
lyra_
i think Charlene sings a bit better, but i can't say neither can sing at all =/
Transition
I agree with bluehearts, it isn't often they have high notes in their songs. Judging their voices only, I actually think Gillian's key is higher and more stable in live performances. Charlene may sing better in CDs but whenever she sings live it sounds as if she is talking more than singing.
xx___`alicee
uhhm. gillian has an airy voice, which is kind of cool.

but in 2004, charlene's voice was like, more 'deep' & has more emotion? =D but still, i think gillian's voice is better IMO because most HK & asian people go for the 'soft -voiced' cause they think that it's 'lady-like'..
miasaurus.

She thinks that because there has been numerous of threads stating Twins twins twins, and it ends up into fights because twins always gets split?
And correction, the aviee shows both twins.
And now your the one who is also assuming the above poster is hating? LMAO! What makes you think that? is it because she didn't say who sang better?
Your using reverse phy. on yourself now.

Anyways, even thought i'm a massive Gillian fan, i still have to admit I prefer Charlene's voice more. It's very smooth and her voice is very nice. I do like Gill's voice too though. It's unique and smooth
ytyl
as for voice only:
i like gillian's voice in canto n charlene's voice in mando.
as for who sings better:
the sing equally well in canto, but charlene sings better in mando.
miss scarlett
^ Charlene does sing better in Mandarin considering that her accent is better than Gillian's. I also think Charlene is a better singer in Cantonese as well because her pronunciation is more clear and correct.

Overall, I find Charlene the better singer.
Gill#1Fan
I think Gillian sings better because her voice is soft and sweet not loud and cracking...but anyways, Gillian sings better for me

NO, she just change her set and aviee
it was just gillian not twins beside i didn't want another
fight so i guessing that you assume it is best if no one say anything about khristinep post?
although someone deleted her post...beside 9hoon6 agree with me the khristinep was over reacting.
i never say that she favor gillian more i'm just pointing thing out because i don't understand
what made her assume that SugerSuger favor charlene more when
her aviee is gillian...it is something that i pointed out to prove mine point.

i think charlene can sing better because she sound more emotional and
because her pronunciation is more clear and correct. Also her voice
is really sweet and it is extremely nice to listen too...i love it when she strech her voice
it is just BEAUTIFUL and just LOVELY!
when i say her voice is emotional i'm talking about "YOU'RE NOT A GOOD LOVER"
CHARLENE'S SOLO is much more emotional compare to twins verison which is the reason
why i like charlene's solo more than the twins version! infatuated.gif thumbsup.gif
Michelle.
well honestly charlene is definitely the better singer.
hmm overall charlene is the more talented one as well
but seriously they both can't sing
it's just that charlene sings better

...Lately Gillian has done some pretty good live performances. Lately, I do think, Gil has been the more consistent live performer.

That being said, I do prefer Charlene's voice. And when she does sing well live, I find her voice much more impressive to me than when Gil sings well live. I just like Char's voice better I guess. Gillian's voice is really cute though smile.gif Very feminine.

DOES Charlene have better pronunciation? I don't know Cantonese so... but I have always found it much easier to sing Char's lines of songs because I can pick up with words more easily. I struggle, sometimes, with Gillian's lines because I can't hear the words as distinctly. But I find that weird because when Sa talks she seems to slur her words more that Gillian O.o

I don't know. Lol.
shellstah__
I always thought Charlene sung better.. more emotional..compared to Gillian. Gillian's voice only sounded nice to me because it was sweet and gentle. But both are crap singers anyways. xD
andrewcfm
They're both as bad as each other I think - most of the people you see on talent shows have better singing abilities than they do.
EDnGILL
obviously, i prefer ah gill..
she has a more unique voice..
yeah, twins don't really sing high pitches,
but when gillian did, i got amazed..
for example, i LOVE her voice
when she sung "my parents" live..
& i also think gillian sings
better live then charlene..
bakzhang
oh please..twins again. haha. i dont know why they are so famous. in my opinion, both sing bad. noone is better than the other one. they are all the same..well, that's my opinion at least.
william60
FOR ME, BOTH SAME, THEIR LIVE PERFORMANCE ARE NOT SO GOOD. THEY NEED TO PRACTICE A LOT.

BUT SOME OF THEIR SONG ARE QUITE GOOD.
destiny~
I seriously think that Gillian sings better...
It's not that I hate Charlen or something... I like her too.. sort of...
But Gillian's voice is more soft, pleasant, unique...
When I listen to some of their songs, I find Char's voice is louder than Gill's...
And Gillian's voice is right at the rate...
No offense Char's fans... keke...
However, both girls still needs more improvement! ^^
dramazi
I like Gillian voice, it's cute..
I like Gillian singing too, she does have a unique voice, it's sweet and soft and she can hit low & high notes, Charlenen has a deep voice & when she sings i like it most of the time..
CC.Xo.
I think both of them sing well but Charlene gives a slightly better live performance.
machupicchu
I thought we already have this kind of thread under 'HK Idols' forum? dry.gif
Two threads with different names but contain same meaning, here is 'Twins', the other one is 'Charlene vs. Gillian'
cascada
for me, i think gillian sings better!!
No offence to char fans but i felt gillian has a unique voice and its sounds really nice especially in sad song as its very expressive.
Charlene's voice is also nice but i felt that its nothing special.
.sugarhearts
Gosh i forgot i made a thread about this??
Thanks for keeping it active everyone.
What i said in the first post was that,
Charlene can hit higher notes when there is higher notes.
But later in the months, i think Charlene
can sing Mandarin better than Gillian and
Gillian can sing Cantonese well too.
I like Twins, but sometimes i have different
opinions about both singers. =]
chinesefood:O
charlene can sing better hands down! i love twins as a whole, but its inevitable the fact that charlene is much more talented than gillian. gillian's got a soft nice voice, but when she sings live, she can't hit the right notes and charlene can do that. :]
JAYumJUN.K_udonSU_ok!
hmmm...am not really a fan of twins' singing.
i've listened to some of their songs, watched some of their MVs and live performances
but yeah, i;ve said it already.
i think there are more people who prefer charlene's voice.
aw i really can't tell who is better.
am still on the stage of which is which voice?
already heard charlene sang an english song. i still find it a bit fobby.
if i get to hear gillian sing an english one also, maybe i can tell who's much better.
and oh! Gillian sometimes hit the notes off. she should be more confident in live performances.
i noticed it in some clips.
am a Gillian fan but i sometimes don't like her singing.
AngelAngel
I have only watched a few lives of twins, mainly from shows. And I have to say Charlene, she is less off tune...
shawty_says
Charlene's recent performances have been really consistent. She really hits her notes and is less off tune. Gillian performed her solo mandarin song well, but other than that her other performances haven't been that good.
jer-bear
I don't really think either one of them can sing to save their lives, but I have to say that Charlene's a bit better in terms of staying in tune and she can hit some of the notes correctly, whereas Gillian tends to stray off the tunes >_<.
BobFiz
about singing..i really cant comment..i do heard their singing but i really dun understand chinese and i never heard their singing live..so i cant comment..but acting..i prefer charlene..
cocolove
ha! they are both just as bad when it comes down to singing. for proof, just listen to their singing in this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fYurSQdwVY

Well actually, I found Charlene's more bearable and when she was singing with Raymond it was slightly more in sync...but yes, it was awful. Still Charlene is slightly more in tune in the performances I've seen.

Why won't HK singers lipsync =.="?!?!

Theres another one, where you can compare the two singing. It's from their new mando album, called "cute or not" [ke by ke ai]. Same lyrics but different pace of melody.
Compare their high notes!

Gillian sounded so out of breathe, Charlene sounded in tune and on time! Definate improvement from Sa, so I think Ah Sa sings much better then Gill now.
Vanity Angel
I can't even tell their voices apart at all. o__o
!evee
I prefer Gillian's voice more despite that I don't listen to alot of Twins songs. I heard Charlene's version of Tong Hua and I really didn't like it. And I like Gillians' duet with Kenny more too.
Calling4Love-MiSa
I like Charlene's voice because she really improved and it is strong.

superhannah
personally
hmmmmmmmmm.....
i would have to say
charlene can sing more
but that doesn't mean gillian can't sing
i just charlene's singing voice better
that's all
their singing voices are totally different
that's a GREAT thing!
charlene's is lower, powerful, and strong
where as gillian's is higher and cute
they're BOTH very good singers
I ADMIRE THEM VERY MUCH! clapping.gif biggrin.gif
「kahing ♥」
When they first came out, it was pretty obvious that Gillian sang better than Charlene. But after a couple of years, Charlene really improved and now she sings better than Gillian and her songs show more emotion. Good job CHARLENE smile.gif
*jenannsel*
i like both singing...but i am a BIG gillian fan, but i'll try not to be biased.

i thikn they both can sing pretty good. charlene has a deeper voice and gillian has a higher voice.

yea gillian obviously sang better than charlene at the beginning of their careers. her voice was smoother and had more emotion. charlene's voice is rough...it's better now because she changed the way she sings. but i think gillian lost confidence after all the criticism about Twins' singing. she seems nervous singing live now. i think it's part psychological and part physical. they are overworked and barely get any rest.
