About Me

I Love Music. Ive known Garbage when i was 10 years old. 'Vow' is the first song ive heard from them and i became their fans ever since. Shirley on the other hand is my idol as she is so strong in doing what she believes in. All the works she'd done, the lyrics she wrote shows that people should never doubt with her talents. Showmanships is the key of her successfulnessss in this music industries.

Everybody in this universe especially Shirley's fans

SHIRLEY MANSON & BUTCH VIG & STEVE MARKER & DUKE ERIKSONShirley Manson was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on August 26, 1966. She decided early on in life that she wanted to be an actor rather than a singer.Shirley does have a husband, Eddie whom she is happily married to. He currently lives in Edinburgh, Scotland where he is a sculptor.However Shirley began her singing career in 1985 at the age of 19. One year later, Shirley became the backup vocalist for a band named Goodbye Mr. Mackenzie. After Goodbye Mr. Mackenzie lost its record deal, Shirley decided to embark upon some soul searching.Eventually a band named Angelfish was formed with Shirley being the lead singer. In 1994 Angelfish's first single "Suffocate Me" aired on MTV's 120 minutes. Steve Marker was watching 120 minutes that night and he arranged a meeting with Shirley the next day.Therefore within 24 hours of Angelfish's premiere, Shirley Manson became the lead singer for Garbage. Shirley then rewrote many of the lyrics of the songs on Garbage's debut CD, and she wrote all of the lyrics for "Version 2.0" herself.Garbage was made up of Butch Vig, Steve Marker, and Duke Erikson originally. The three of them have worked with several notable bands including Depeche Mode, Nine inch Nails, Smashing Pumpkins, House of Pain, L7, U2, Korn, and others. Their primary work was doing remixes for these bands.One day while the three of them were creating a Nine inch Nails remix, a friend came into the studio and told them that the remix sounded like nothing but a bunch of garbage. Butch then told his friend that this "garbage" would become a song at a point in the future. Therefore, the three of them decided to name their new band project Garbage. This name allowed them to let their songs be a blend of many trashy, garbage-like sounds.With the addition of Shirley Manson and a demo of their first single named "Vow" Garbage was able to land a major recoard deal with Almo Records in 1994. On the few radio stations "Vow" was played on, it enjoyed almost immediate success. This lead to Garbage releasing its first self-titled album in 1995.Garbage enjoyed quick success and became increasingly popular after their album was released. When the Smashing Pumpkins asked Garbage to be their opening act on their tour in 1995, Garbage became even more popular and successful.Ultimately, Garbage's self-titled album has sold nearly 6 million copies. The group then spent over a year recording their latest album, "Version 2.0" which has sold 4 million copies. Garbage's third album, "Beautifulgarbage" has sold over 1.5 million copies so far and has allowed them to remain popular and have continued success.After multiple MTV nominations and awards as well as several Grammy nominations for their albums, Garbage continues to show that they are one of the most popular bands today. Evidence of this is clear from the number of celebrities that have been seen at various Garbage concerts. They include Bono, Fran Drescher, Jenna Elfman, Esthero, Hanson, Chrissie Hynde, Val Kilmer, Courtney Love, Kylie Minogue, No Doubt, Sporty Spice, and Michael Stipe.
