Jemini were originally a trio by the name of 'Tricity' (i.e. Tri = 3) from the "City" (Liverpool). Recorded a number of demos at Lomax Entertainments studios, Great Crosshall Street, Liverpool in 2002. 'Cry Baby' was written by Martin Isherwood, Head of Music at Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts

The band were named after a fridge, not due to the reason given above. See Nul Points (2006) (ISBN 0-224-07780-5) by Tim Moore. TomPhil 18:39, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am sure that the eurovision band is GEMINI not JEMINI!!!!!!!!!!!!!81.97.136.178 08:58, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're wrong. Gemini was a different band to the Jemini in Eurovision. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 14:24, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It was definitely Jemini - and anyone who uses 13 exclamation marks is obviously clinically insane. Smurfmeister (talk) 11:29, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Terry Wogan comment - that "the 2003 Iraq war and the political disagreements between European countries had swung the popular vote against Jemini" - is out of context. Wogan's humorous jibes should not be taken seriously. In any case, this point, like the rest of the article, is unsourced. So, while I'd prefer to find sources for articles rather than close them, I'm removing the reference to Wogan. - User:Wozocoxonoy 10:50 (GMT) 07/01/06

The stageshow was about two men pretending to be the best dancers in the world. They were also pretending as if cameras were just invented. Then I discovered there was a woman on stage singing. Plainly awful at it's own merit. I agree with User:Wozocoxonoy that the Iraq comment is living outside it's context. I for one will say two things: The Iraq issue seems like romantic drivle. Two: The British tabloids act as if 2003 never happened, calling electro-velvet Britains worst entry. --2001:4644:DC5B:0:E833:7161:5B50:3059 (talk) 20:37, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Jemini were featured in Tim Moore's book Nul Points (ISBN:978-0224077804), where he travelled to Liverpool to meet them. They were working in a car showroom and as a sales rep for a healthclub respectively. I shall have to double-check that at the end of the week when I can re-read my copy, but I'll then add it to the article, unless anyone else with the book can add it earlier.

OK, I've put some more information in from Tim Moore's interview with the duo in his book Nul Points. The source for all the information added in my previous edit is that book. TomPhil 18:54, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Gemma Abbey was interviewed on 24/5/08 by 'City Talk 105.9', a Liverpool radio station (on their breakfast programme) - dunno if thats online so can't put it in the article, but she took time out to have a baby and is planning to resume singing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.31.97.129 (talk) 21:19, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
