Name: TWINKIDS - Love Story Wa Totsuzen Ni by Om Records in TWINKIDS - Boys Love
Duration: 4 min 40 s
Description: TWINKIDS’ debut EP “Boys Love” comes out August 18th, with the EP title paying homage to the gay romance manga genre of the same name. Drawing influence from 80’s J-pop and artists like Imogen Heap and Bonobo, the EP’s five songs tell coming-of-age stories about falling in love.

TWINKIDS is the electronic pop project of pianist-producer Matt Young and Tokyo-native singer-songwriter Gene Fukui. After meeting at Oberlin College & Conservatory in northeast Ohio – the same rural campus that spawned the likes of Teengirl Fantasy, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Liz Phair – the two quickly discovered a mutual reverence for electronic music and began writing, producing, and performing as one. They went on to study at the renowned Banff Centre in Canada under Brendan Canning of Broken Social Scene.

TWINKIDS bring together Gene’s experience as a J-pop songwriter and Matt’s background in classical piano, delivering genre-bending tunes with catchy hooks and lush harmonies. Following releases on Cascine, Yellow Year Records, a collaboration with Australian singer-songwriter Sophie Lowe, and official remixes for Dawn Richard and Ghostly International, the LA-based duo has garnered support from Rolling Stone, The Fader, Stereogum, Sirius XM, & The Burning Ear.

TWINKIDS’ debut EP “Boys Love” on Om Records pays homage to the gay romance manga genre of the same name. Drawing influence from 80’s J-pop and artists like Imogen Heap and Bonobo, the EP’s five songs tell coming-of-age stories about falling in love.

Labyrinth  ラビリンス by Mondo Grosso

'Overdressed' is the first single from the TWINKIDS' debut release on Om Records 'Boys Love' released August 18, 2017.  

This song chronicles the uncertainty and distrust in a young relationship, the feeling of betrayal in conflict with insatiable attraction. The song’s poppy verse explodes into a full-fledged four-on-the-floor chorus as the singer asks “Is it crystal or plastic?”

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
Hold you with covetous hands
My endless rants, baby they’re homemade Invited to your careful masquerade Maybe baby I’m going insane
You leave me with a smile on your face
a stain in my mouth, you’re making me feel you show me your teeth, you got some nerve Captivated, oh I can’t move

PRECH
Blinding me, hardly see all your lying, your loving distracts me
Fell in love and it comes with a price, all your loving, it distracts me

CHORUS:
Is it crystal or plastic? Overdressed and under-loved, it quivers, that bug in your lip, baby I love you deeply
you’re a lie to me

VERSE 2
Hold you and your thready claims
they rip easy, baby even in your haze should I keep you and live in your charade? maybe baby I’ll just go insane
You leave me with a smile on your face
you’re dressed up for me, always talking me to stay you show me your teeth, you got some nerve captivated, oh I can’t move

TWINKIDS - Overdressed

Body Wonder is a song about romantic desperation: “I’m starving every day for your love,” says the song’s chorus in the same lush, harmonic style of TWINKIDS’ first single, Dreamer. With roomy vocal production, heavy percussion, and big sustained synths, Body Wonder confesses a poetic story of dependence: “I won’t know how to fall if you let go of me.”

Lyrics:
VERSE I
so easy, you as a fantasy
like a howling sea, feel you feeding me
make my love come up the storm inside of me
make my love come up, you’re overwhelming me
 
so easy for me to love, you see
it’s all the mud and debris that circle at my feet
and when I rain for days, let out the storm in me
and when I rain for days, you clean me up my sea
 
CHORUS
I’m starving everyday for your love
I can’t afford hurting but I’ll pay for your heart
I’m living low and you are vivid in color
I’m swimming in your bodywonder
 
VERSE II
so easy, you as a fantasy
like a seed could see water that make it be
I’m drowning in your love, making too much for me I’m drowning in your love, or do you make me free
 
so easy for me to love, you see
it’s all the wood and sea that circle at my feet
and when I rain for days, let out the storm in me
you clean me up my love, will you keep feeding me?
CHORUS
 
BRIDGE
I don’t know how to fall if you let go of me
CHORUS

Lyrics:
VERSE 1:
Mama
oh she discovered a new way
to enjoy these numb and endless hot days 
in the beach club and constant coquina
In Suburbia

Mama
told me she found a new friend too 
who keeps her away from feeling blue 
she meets him every night
wrap him real tight

Grab that green now lets go!

PRECHORUS:
Those dead eyes on housewives
Oh they’re just too uptight
Mama needs to take a break from
white houses, lemonade and kids and smiling backstabbing fake tits

Styrofoam white people
Cruising Ponte Vedra
Mama needs to take a break now 
don’t worry, done this plenty times

CHORUS:
Babe I smoke this shit all the time

VERSE 2:
Same old
aggregate grocery stores and
Frozen foreheads, there’s nothing inside them 
I can grow wings of gold
that’s how my story goes
as long as I have one more puff

Same old
short skirts on girls, boys with crewcuts
they’re as shameless and bland as their prenups 
Now let’s promise
We won’t tell daddy this

I’ll hit this right watch me go!

PRECHORUS

I made this for youtube since the original "Western Plastic" mashup got blocked pretty much everywhere. Had to remove Adele because she was the source of the copyright claim. Otherwise pretty similar to the original except the sound quality should be better and it also features some Lana del Rey vocals.
