Lewis' songs, "Shooting Holes" and "Old Love/New Love," appear in the critically acclaimed 2013 video game Grand Theft Auto V, while "To the Top" appears in the trailer, soundtrack and end scene/credits of the film Paper Towns and in the intro for the fourth episode of the episodic video game Tales from the Borderlands.
History
Lewis was born March 30, 1983 in the Dominican Republic and raised in Florida. Lewis's first exposure to music started by singing in his church choir. While growing up, Lewis listened to punk music, Bob Dylan, The Beatles, Boyz II Men, Keith Sweat, and Bobby Brown.
Around 2000, he moved to Boston and started the band Mad Man Films alongside Joseph Ciampini (drums) (of Hooray For Earth), and Zak Longo (bass) of Before Lazers. Mad Man Films released two records independently. In 2006, not satisfied with recording music for theatre and films, Lewis moved to Brooklyn, NY and started the Twin Shadow project. Twin Shadow was the Rolling Stone Band of the Week on October 7, 2010.
You are adored but you say you're alone Like I'm nothing at all That's how you punish me By always letting me fall I've built this sanctuary for Your troubles and doubts And there I pray for you And now you look at me Like I wasn't true And maybe you don't want no one to find out That I am kissing you Maybe you don't want no one to find out That I was the one taking love from you Patiently, waiting for you to give up everything Say just what you mean I'm patiently, waiting For you to give up everything Say just what you mean I want to be adored By your lips and your hands Can't seem to tell you this When you analyze Every single kiss You tell me you're just a saint, boys will be boys, this was a game And you don't want no one to find out that I Was the one playing games with you Patiently, I'm waiting for you to give up everything Say just what you mean I'm patiently, waiting For you to say just what you mean
While visitors were excited, as always, to meet the zoo's resident giant pandas, the fact that three of the beloved bears were preparing to leave for their ancestral home in China cast a shadow of sadness on all the joy.
