Todd and Jingyu

Boy/Girl album of songs. Jingyu is Chinese, Todd is American — and this is their debut album of original pop-rock duets. The songs took over 10 years to write and record. They can be enjoyed individually but if one listens in order they tell a fully integrated narrative on the theme of romantic love… The album parallels the artists’ own story: both were love-wrecked… then breakdown… reboot… meeting and falling in love… navigating the Chinese/American cultural divide… embracing commitment and exploring universal ideas on relationship… aiming to go deeper.

Climb up into bed
Curl under the blanket
You can close your eyes
Little independent girl

Know that I won’t give up your world
And I won’t give up your world

We won’t give it to a king
Not to any other being
We won’t give up the world

You can close your eyes
And you can trust
We won’t give up your world

Now go to sleep and dream
Fly through the air
We won’t give up the world

I won’t give up your world
And I won’t give up your world

We won’t give it to a snail
An environmental tale
We won’t give up the world

The light that’s in your room
It says the day is on your window
You can open up your eyes
Little independent girl

For I won’t give up your world
And I won’t give up your world

No we won’t give up the world
While we are in it
Little independent girl

We won’t give it to arbitrary whims
To nonexistent things
We won’t give up the world
