Tyla (born Timothy Taylor) is an English rock musician, best known for his work with The Dogs D'Amour as well as an extensive solo catalogue. As well as performing vocals, guitars and other instruments, he also illustrates the album covers in his own recognisable style.
In 1982 Tyla was serving as guitarist for the band Bordello Boys. When vocalist Ned Christie joined the band he brought with him a change of name, which was the beginning of The Dogs D'Amour. On the back of the second of two recording sessions, The Dogs D'Amour were signed to Kumibeat Records in Finland.
The recording and release of The State We're' In was problematic. Ned Christie left the band prior to the recording, resulting in Tyla adopting the role of both guitars and vocals. Additionally, the production encountered a number of issues, most notably the album producer remixing everything to add synths, against the band's wishes. The album was released on vinyl in Finland but Kumibeat Records folded shortly after. The Kumibeat mix has never been released on CD or in any format outside of Finland. A cassette-sourced copy of the original mix has since been released, although has been criticised for its sound quality.
When Bratz was originally released in 2001, there were only 4 characters: Yasmin, Cloe, Sasha, and Jade. These four were produced in the majority of Bratz lines and are the main characters of the Bratz. In 2015, a new character, Raya, was introduced as the fifth main character. Over 10 years after the debut of the Bratz, over 100 characters were added to the Bratz world.
A list of past and current Bratz characters:
Main Characters
Her life was in danger
The abuse was out of hand
She told the man she once loved
Get out of my land
The only memory I have of you is the back of your hand
And as he spat threats
She pronounced him gone
Once was once too often
This life couldn´t go on
Your instant gratification days are long gone
He´s a ghost of a lover
That man she once knew
But his phantom torture which he puts himself through
It showed on his face as his days grow into his years
Well, his body is strong
But his mind is weak
As he breaks her heart for the fourth time this week
Well, I just can´t live with you anymore, yeah
You´re just a ghost of a lover
You´re just a ghost of a lover
You´re just a ghost of a lover
Yeah
I only felt sorry for the unfortunate soul
Who lets his demon penetrate her hole
Strong words that will stand blue with the test of time

A man she once knew
But this phantom torture which he puts himself through
It showed on his face as his days grow into his years, yeah
