[edit] Lyudi Invalidy
This album includes two songs from the English release, Dangerous and Moving. "All About Us" was unmodified, but Loves Me Not was remixed for the release, to make the song a more "Russian feel." The songs "Люди Инвалиды", "Ты Согласна", "Ничья" and "Что Не Хватает" were all developed during the show Поднебесная, with Ivan Shapovalov. The music to "Обезьянка Ноль" is also said to be produced in part by Ivan.
The title of the album caused much confusion among listeners, especially those that did not have an understanding of the Russian language or symbolism. "Люди Инвалиды" does not mean "Disabled/Handicapped People" as it translates, rather morally corrupt people. The closest English translation available is "Invalid People", although it is directly translated as "People Invalids". The album's message depicts an awakening to self-awareness, empathy, and love.
As Yulia said in an interview with the Russian Bravo Magazine when explaining who the Люди Инвалиды were, "...we are not talking about a physical disability, but only about the moral disabilities - they all have crippled souls." [1].
[edit] Quotes about the album
- "People are focused on themselves, they become selfish, self-centered and they don't share anything! It goes beyond sexuality. The lyrics are more profound, serious and sincere than ever before. It's psychology!" -Lena Katina in an interview with Tribu Move on the song "Loves Me Not." (Translation www.tatysite.net)
- "Люди Инвалиды (Lyudi Invalidy) is about our lives and other peoples... Our thoughts our worries" -t.A.T.u. in an interview with CD UK.
- "It's about us growing up, the new challenges we face. It's a more serious album, darker and depressive because we met so many fake people in music." - Lena Katina in an Interview with Planet Sound
