Kraina Mriy (Ukrainian: Країна Мрій, English: The Land of Dreams (incorrectly given as "Cry in a Dream")) is the first official studio album by Vopli Vidopliassova. It was originally released in 1994 on BSA Records. When Vopli Vidopliassova's "French period" (1990-1996) ended, the band returned to the Ukraine and had this remixed. The remix was released in 1997.

1997 remix
The tracklist was reordered. "Znovu zima" and "Mussa" were replaced with a French version of "Tantsi" entitled "Dansez". The "Dobryy den..." intro was moved from "Karmen" to "Shalena zirka" and the "Ty byla..." text was moved from the end of "Ty ushel" to the beginning. Also, the version of "Ty ushel" on this is an extended version, because the song is sung in French as well as Russian, and the "Ty byla" text is a different recorded version. The news audio was removed from "Tantsi". Also, in "Kraina mriy", the song, after the short intro text, starts to build up straight away instead of fading in. The cowbell was removed from "Kolys".
When this was re-released on KRaina Mriy records in 2006, it had Znovu zima as a bonus track, however it was the original 1994 mix remastered.
