There is more than one artist with this name: 1) Twinkle (born Lynn Annette Ripley, 15 July 1948, Surbiton, Surrey, England - 21 May 2015) was a singer-songwriter. She made #4 in the U.K. at the end of 1964 with her self-penned debut "Terry," a maudlin disc about the death of a (fictional) biker boyfriend. "Leader of the Pack" it wasn't, yet the record caused a furor, with accusations of bad taste leading to its ban from the BBC (and, most likely, aiding its rapid rise to popularity). <a href="
