Need to explain a bit.
Five pics posted there: Pics 1,2,4 & 5 are from the Hong Kong pop group Twins, which is very famous in Hong Kong and quite famous in Singapore...they released quite a number of cantonese albums since 2001 I think, and also released their first chinese album last year and a acted host of movies..
Pic 3 is by a NEW group by the name of Twins Girls. Malaysian twins who won some competition organized by Y.E.S 933.
As mentioned earlier.. not quite sure if this is a strategy to boost album sales. Firstly, the groups name are STRIKINGLY similar. Secondly, the album release date is close to the new Chinese album release date that of Twins (HK): The former on 29 May while the later on 02 Jun. Thirdly, the fact that the Twins Girls (Msia) album cover has the likes of a typical Twins (HK) album cover: bright colors, cute animations, two girls cute clothes smiling cutely at the camera.. and lastly, the face of one of the Twins Girls (Msia) look likes Gillian of Twins (HK)
I must admit I was mistaken at the first glance. Imagine new guy listened to a new song by Twins (HK) that he liked on the national radio, understand that it was a new song, decides to buy the album...walks to a local music store looking for the new Twins (HK) album.. looking at the 'T' session under Chinese Pop group... saw the Twins Girls (Msia) album.. and mistakes it.. this scenario could likely happen....
