12 Girls Band - Anybody know them?

I heard a little things about this new band today on the news. I think that my grandparents would particularly enjoy their music.

However, since I have never heard of them before, do you know:

- Where I can get song samples of their music?
- Which of their albums is their best one?
- Where to find their MP3s?

If they indeed sound as good as the news projected, I'll definitely buy the CD version for my grandparents.

So, if you are in "the know", please let me know :)

Thanks.

Michael

Thank you :) I'll check it out... Unfortunately, their servers aren't responding. So, I left a program to keep on trying.

They were a hit in Hong Kong for about a month (last month). They play all sorts of stuff, classical, pop, etc. They were a big hit in Japan mostly because of the fact that the group consists of 12 girls.

If you are going to buy a CD, it might be a better deal to buy the DVD.

Thanks Mavis. Unfortunately, my grandparents don't watch DVDs haha... Still stuck with 1993 Zenith TVs and a hmm... don't know what kind of VCR it is.

I'm going to try that link that mb gave again.

Based on the music found here: http://www.mikemike.com/hkpop/html/12girlsband.html I wasn't very impressed... :?

Of all the songs available for download there, I'd say the ok ones were:

Chase
I Can't Be Your Man

i love traditional chinese instrument musics, especially the Erhu, probably cuz my grandpa can play the Erhu like crazy.

I have never heard the Erhu in person before, but it can sure bring out a lot of emotions. Do you know how to play it?

And is the Avatar a picture of you? For some strange reason, I've always thought you were Caucasian...

Me .....Caucasian?....... nah, i'll always be 100% chinese, dont' think there's a way to change that now......

I'm a music dummy, i can't play any instruments, i'm sure rockstar can if she put some time on it. i love the sound of erhu....extremely soothing.

You two fit well together :) You're one of those couples that look like you were made for each other 8)

Why I thought you were caucasian? For some reason, I thought you told me that you were... but I guess I was wrong :roll:
