BIO:
Marit Elisabeth Larsen and Marion Elise Ravn were born in the early eighties in a small Norwegian town called L��skog. The two met at the age of five and became friends when they realized they shared a very similar interest: music. Marion had begun taking lessons in piano as a child and formed a pretend band called Hubba Bubba with Marit and her other friends. As young teenagers, Marit and Marion seperated from their friends and went to record their first album in Norway. It was a thematic album, meant for children. The album turned out to be a surprinsing hit and was even nominated for a Norwegian grammy. After their mediocre success, Marit and Marion began to write their own fresh breed of pop songs.
At the age of thirteen, Marion created her first song on her piano, the soft romantic ballad, Girl In Your Dreams. It was meant for a boy who wrote her heart in school. As soon as the managers from a recording label called Atlantic Records heard of Marit and Marion, they dediced to give them a shot at stardom and sign them. Marit and Marion headed off to the United States, for the first time, to record their debut album, which they decided to call, Shades Of Purple. Before the release of Shades of Purple, Marit and Marion needed to come forth to the public with a catchy and clever band name. They ran a contest on the internet at Alloy.com, asking fans to come up with a name for them. A girl on the site suggested the name, M2M. Favoring the name and so, Marit and Marion became M2M.
It was late summer of 1999 when Atlantic Records decided to bring M2M into the people's view. They released M2M's first single, Don't Say You Love Me, as the first single off of the popular Pokemon: The First Movie soundtrack. It became a huge top 40 hit and the marked only the beginning for M2M. In March of 2000, M2M released Shades Of Purple for the world to hear. Billboard acclaimed it the soundtrack of the spring and summer of 2000. After the first single, Don't Say You Love Me came the follow-up hits, Mirror Mirror, Pretty Boy, Everything You Do, The Day You Went Away, and Girl In Your Dreams. It wasn't too long until M2M became a huge hit even in Asia. Their tri-lingualism made them popular in the orient (especially in the Philippines, where they are most popular as they released several songs sung in Mandarin such as "Pretty Boy". However, they did not record a Mandarin version of their hit "The Day You Went Away"; Taiwanese singer Cyndi Wang recorded her own version instead. In order to further promote the album, M2M toured in many different places around the world, as well as opening for the popular band, Hanson. They also played a gig on the tv show, One World.

2. DON'T MESS WITH MY LOVE
I thought you were a friend of mine but I was wrong
You tried to fit into the arms where I belong
You moved right in behind my back
Everyone knows friends don't do that
I thought you were somebody I could trust
You always said you were happy for us
How could you go and break my heart?
When you knew all along he was mine from the start
He is everything to me
And you know we're meant to be
He's my baby
Don't mess with my love
Take everything I own
Ooh just leave that boy alone
He's my baby
Don't mess with my
Mess with my love
Don't mess with my love
You came right over and looked in my eyes
You said the stories were rumors and lies
And I wish I could believe in you
But I'm sorry to say he told me the truth
He is everything to me
And you know we're meant to be
He's my baby
Don't mess with my love
Take everything I own
Ooh just leave that boy alone
He's my baby
Don't mess with my
Mess with my love
Don't mess with my love
[BRIDGE]
Friends don't do what you do
There's no excuse
I'm so confused
I thought you cared about me
But now I see
All you care about is you
He is everything to me
And you know we're meant to be
He's my baby
Don't mess with my love
Take everything I own
Ooh just leave that boy alone
He's my baby
Don't mess with my
Mess with my love
Don't mess with my love

3. PRETTY BOY
I lie awake at night
See things in black and white
I've only got you inside my mind
You know you have made me blind
I lie awake and pray
That you will look my way
I have all this longing in my heart
I knew it right from the start
Oh my pretty pretty boy I love you
Like I never ever loved no one before you
Pretty pretty boy of mine
Just tell me you love me too
Oh my pretty pretty boy
I need you
Oh my pretty pretty boy I do
Let me inside
Make me stay right beside you
I used to write your name
And put it in a frame
And sometime I think I hear you call
Right from my bedroom wall
You stay a little while
And touch me with your smile
And what can I say to make you mine
To reach out for you in time
Oh my pretty pretty boy I love you
Like I never ever loved no one before you
Pretty pretty boy of mine
Just tell me you love me too
Oh my pretty pretty boy
I need you
Oh my pretty pretty boy I do
Let me inside
Make me stay right beside you
[BRIDGE]
Oh pretty boy
Say you love me too
Oh my pretty pretty boy I love you
Like I never ever loved no one before you
Pretty pretty boy of mine
Just tell me you love me too
Oh my pretty pretty boy
I need you
Oh my pretty pretty boy I do
Let me inside
Make me stay right beside you

4. LOVE LEFT FOR ME
You just said the worst thing you could ever say
Well, I don't understand why it just can't be this way
I'm crying because of you
[Chorus]
I hate, yes I hate all your lies
I'm so scared
And I fear what I see in your eyes
But I hope, and I dream, and I wish, and I pray
That you have some love left for me
Do you have some love left for me?
You just did the worst thing you could ever do to me
Well, I don't understand why and I cannot see
That it's hurting because of you
[Chorus]
Do you have some love left for me?
Do you have some love left for me?
[Chorus...]
I hate, yes I hate all your lies
I'm so scared
And I fear what I see in your eyes
(you don't feel anything)
But I hope, and I dream, and I wish, and I pray
That you have some love left for me
Do you have some love left for me?

5. GIRL IN YOUR DREAMS
I was walking down the street one day
Then I saw you I didn't know what to say
You're eyes were shining
You're smile was so kind
When I saw you I wanted you to be mine
Maybe I don't have the blonde hair you like
Or maybe I don't have eyes like the sky
And I'm not sure if I'm the girl in your dreams
But I can show you what love means
One day you came and talked to me
And you said we are meant to be
I was happy, everything was so nice
But then I found out that everything was a lie
Maybe I don't have the blonde hair you like
Or maybe I don't have eyes like the sky
And I'm not sure if I'm the girl in your dreams
But I can show you what love means
[BRIDGE]
How could you do this to me
You said we are meant to be
You showed me how to cry
When you told me everything was a lie
Maybe I don't have the blonde hair you like
Or maybe I don't have eyes like the sky
And I'm not sure if I'm the girl in your dreams
But I can show you what love means

6. DON'T SAY YOU LOVE ME
[Verse 1:]
Got introduced to you my friend
You were cute and all that, baby you set the trend
Yes you did oh
The next thing I know were down at the cinema
We're sitting there, you said you loved me
What's that about?
[Verse 2:]
You're moving too fast, I don't understand you
I'm not ready yet, baby I can't pretend
No I can't
The best I can do is tell you to talk to me
It's possible, eventual
Love will find a way
Love will find a way...
[Chorus:]
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married
Give me, give me some time
[Verse 3:]
Here's how I play, here's where you stand
Here's what to prove to get any further than where it's been
I'll make it clear, not gonna tell you twice
Take it slow, you keep pushing me
You're pushing me away
Pushing me away...
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
oooo, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
na, na, na, na, na, na
oooo, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me baby...
Baby don't say love me, baby
Give me some time...

7. THE FEELING IS GONE
The feeling is gone
Listen to me as I explain this situation
Its not like I wanna destroy his reputation
We're still together
But we are not moving on
When we first met it was the perfect combination
Now when I look at him it fills me with frustration
What is a girl to do when she is not having fun
[CHORUS]
How can I tell him I have to try
There is no easy way of saying goodbye
How do I break it
Its just no good
My heart is telling me that I really should
I must be subtle
I must be strong
the feeling is gone
I think we're in the oppisette direction
No longer think that we are making a connection
I am so unhappy
I'd rather be alone
In the beginning it was one special occasion
Now when I talk to him his mind is on vacation
[CHORUS]
[CHORUS]
I want it over all said and done
How can I tell him that he isn't the one
I must be subtle
I must be strong
the feeling is gone

8. OUR SONG
VERSE 1
I'm lying in my bed, all alone
Called you once again, no one is home
It's raining outside, on Saturday night
Turning out the light, again I tried
VERSE 2
My friends say I'm too good, too good for you
And maybe that is true, well I don't care
What do they all know, they got it all wrong
This is so unfair, they're playing our song
CHORUS
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb
VERSE 3
Something's going on, what is wrong
I want you to be here, why won't you come
And spend some time with me, can't you see
Have we come undone
Is this the end of our song
CHORUS 2X
BRIDGE
How do I deal
With how I feel
How to reveal
Oooh... what is real love
As another day fades away
So I say
CHORUS 2X
VIDEO
9. I WON'T FORGET YOU
The fading light of day lingers on your sleeping face
My lover's lullaby lately lost its tender grace
Somewhere in your dreams tonight
Let my lips come close to you and hold me tight
After all I hardly bear
To turn my back to loving arms and leave you there
Chorus:
Babe, I
I won't forget you
And I won't regret you
I won't forgive you Anymore, no more
I won't forget you
And I won't regret you
I won't forgive you Anymore, no more
We said our first hello beneath a blue umbrella sky
A simple moment shared by strangers who were passing by
People say when you're in love
It seems as if tomorrow almost never comes, no never comes
After all your loving touch
Through my eyes of love to me it means so much
And that's why
Chorus:
I won't forget you
And I won't regret you
I won't forgive you Anymore, no more
I won't forget you
And I never let you Anymore, no more
I won't forget you
And I won't regret you
I won't forgive you Anymore, no more
I won't forget you
And I never let you Anymore, no more
Anymore no more ooohhh
Anymore no more
Chorus:
I won't forget you
And I won't regret you
I won't forgive you Anymore, no more
I won't forget you
And I never let you Anymore, no more
I won't forget you
And I won't regret you
I won't forgive you Anymore, no more
I won't forget you
And I never let you Anymore, no more
I will never let you
Anymore no no
Anymore no no
Anymore no no
Anymore no no
Anymore no no
Anymore
Uhuh
I won't
I won't forget you
I won't
And I won't regret you
I won't
I won't forgive
I won't
I won't forget you
Oh no oh no
I will never let you

10. GOODBYE'S THE SADDEST WORD
Mama, you gave life to me turned a baby
into a lady. And Mama all you had to offer was a
promise of life time of love. Now I know there is no
other love like a mother's love for her child
and I know love so complete someday must leave,
must say goodbye
oohh

goodbye the saddest world I'll ever hear
goodbye is the last time I will hold you near
some day you will say that word and I will cry it
will break my heart to hear you say goodbye
Mama you gave love to me turned a young one into a
woman. And mama all I ever needed was a guarantee
of you loving me. Cause I know there is no other love
like a mother's love for her child. And it hurts that something
so strong someday will be gone must say goodbye uuhhh yeah
(chours)
but the love you gave will always be there
You will always be there every time I fall
you gave to me the greatest love of all
you took my weakness and made it strong
you will always love me to the end of all
and when you need me i'll be there for you always
I'll be there all life through I will be there this
I promise you. I'll be your light throughout the darkest night
i'll be the wings that guide your broken flight.
I will be your shelter through the raining storm
and i will love you till forever comes
(chours)
till we meet again until then goodbye....
