Titanium

Titanium is a chemical element with symbol Ti and atomic number 22. It is a lustrous transition metal with a silver color, low density and high strength. It is highly resistant to corrosion in sea water, aqua regia and chlorine.

Titanium was discovered in Cornwall, Great Britain, by William Gregor in 1791 and named by Martin Heinrich Klaproth for the Titans of Greek mythology. The element occurs within a number of mineral deposits, principally rutile and ilmenite, which are widely distributed in the Earth's crust and lithosphere, and it is found in almost all living things, rocks, water bodies, and soils. The metal is extracted from its principal mineral ores via the Kroll process or the Hunter process. Its most common compound, titanium dioxide, is a popular photocatalyst and is used in the manufacture of white pigments. Other compounds include titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4), a component of smoke screens and catalysts; and titanium trichloride (TiCl3), which is used as a catalyst in the production of polypropylene.

    Titanium is a New Zealand pop boy band formed in Auckland in 2012 from the winners of The Edge radio station's competition to create New Zealand's second boy band. The Edge radio station hosted auditions across New Zealand and eventually six young men were selected for the group consisting of members, Zac Taylor, Andrew Papas, Jordi Webber, Shaquille Paranihi-Ngauma, Haydn Linsley and T.K Paradza. They signed to Illegal Musik and released their debut single, "Come On Home". The single debuted at number one on the official New Zealand Singles Chart on 17 September 2012. Titanium released their debut studio album, All For You in December 2012. They became the first New Zealand band to have three songs in the Top 40 Singles Chart at one time.

    History

    2012: Formation

    The Edge radio station began a nationwide search to find six young men to form a boy band. Auditions were held across New Zealand. Ten finalists were chosen and sent to "Boyband Camp". At the end of the week public voting for the guys opened and in conjunction with a panel of experts from The Edge, Illegal Musik and Warner Music the final six members were announced and became Titanium. Shortly after releasing their first single "Come On Home" which debuted at number one, the band announced a 15-date Come On Home Tour.

    You shout it loud, but I can't hear a word you say
    I'm talking loud, not saying much
    I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
    you shoot me down, but I get up
    I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
    fire away, fire away
    ricochet, you take your aim
    fire away, fire away
    you shoot me down, but I won't fall
    I am titanium
    you shoot me down, but I won't fall
    I am titanium
    Cut me down, but it's you who'll have further to fall
    Ghost town and haunted love
    Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
    I'm talking loud, not saying much
    I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
    fire away, fire away
    ricochet, you take your aim
    fire away, fire away
    you shoot me down, but I won't fall
    I am titanium
    you shoot me down, but I won't fall
    I am titanium
    I am titanium
    I am titanium
    Stone hard, machine gun
    Fired at the ones who run
    Stone hard, as bulletproof glass
    You shoot me down, but I won't fall
    I am titanium
    You shoot me down, but I won't fall
    I am titanium
    You shoot me down, but I won't fall
    I am titanium
    You shoot me down, but I won't fall
    I am titanium
