A excellent comeback!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This album is very different from the 1st one. The girls now tried different kind of music that goes from electronic to rock passing for some pop ballads.1. Intro - The intro of this album is the intro of the song Dangerous and Moving, very catchy and you'll be listening again at the end but now as a full song.2. All About Us - This songs it's as catchy as 'All The Things She Said' from their previous album. The lyrics are simply: "It's all about us..there's a thing that they can't touch cuz you know us" and the whole meaning of the song is that they don't really care about what the people and critics have to say about them anymore. A great song and first single off the album. 9/103. Cosmos(Outer Space)- This song is completely electronic. Very different from what they did on the last album. The lyrics don't make sense at all "our home forever is outer space, bright stars and endless seas, outer space". A great song, it could work as a single. 9/104. Loves Me Not - Here they go again, another controversial song, but this time is about a love triangle that includes a man. "I complicated our lifes by falling in love with him" start singing Lena. and then the chorus goes "He loves, he loves me not, she loves, she loves me not" The music is catchy, mixed with some percussions and electronic sounds. 7/105. Friend Or Foe - Again, very electronic, and features singer/composer Sting on bass. The lyrics seems to be a little bit bitter "We used to love one another, give to each other lie under covers so, Are you friend or foe" Great song, possibly single. 9/106. Gomenasai - this song is totally different from what these girls have done before. This song is a sorry to their japanese fans who got dissapointed when they left that country without giving any interview and the trouble they caused. The lyrics goes: "Gomen nasai for everything, Gomen nasai, I know I let you down, Gomen nasai till the end, I never needed a friend Like I do now" They seem to be very sincere throught the song. Definitevely this will be a single, a will show another part of t.A.T.u. that people haven't heard yet. 8/107. Craving (I Only Want What I Can't Have)- I found this song very Sheryl Crow-ish on the chorus. Is a soft rock song, where the girls show that their voices aren't always the chill-out kind. I think this come to be the best song on the album, even tough is the most out of place in it. 10/108. Sacrifice - A excellent electronic soft dance song. Their vocals are great, and the lyrics seems to be deep. "you cures me smoothly, calm your fears and sooth me, move your hands across me, take my worries from me" A great song, i hope they release it as a single. 10/109. We Shout - Very simply, but a great ballad. It's not so dark as "30 Minutes" from theri previous album. They mixed good vocals, with some simply electronic tunes and percussions. The lyrics are very touchful, and the girls have never sounded so great. 8/1010. Perfect Enemy - Great tune, again playing with electronic instruments, this song is more serious and darker than the others on the album. The lyrics can be refering to their old managar Ivan Shapovalock "You don't turn me off I will never fail,Things I loved before are not for sale, Keep yourself away Far away from me I forever stay Your perfect enemy" but they can refer also to some lost lover. 9/1011. Obezyanka Nol - The only russian sang song on this album. I don't know what the song is about but i found this song really great, i think they sound so much better singing on russian language. Hard electric music goes througout the chrous, a little bit dark, good overall. 10/1012. Dangerous And Moving - It stars with the same intro at the beginnig of the CD. This is the translated version of their first single from their second russian album called 'Ludi Invalidi.' This is a good song but it seems average. Good way to close the album. 8/10Overall a great album, very different from the previous one, you should give it a try!

Love the music :)
I love t.A.T.u. so much. I wanted this CD since listening to the artist on occasion in Pandora or on Spotify. I love each and every track, and I also love the lyric booklet that it came with.The only downside I saw was the fact that the sticker was on the CD (probably from a previous seller), but that's just a nitpick compared to one of my favorite bands. :)

Their best work
This is an album with substance on it. A huge advancement compared to their debut album. The lyrics are more profound and production-wise, its a delicacy. Their best album in my opinion.

TERRIBLE packaging!
the cd case was ALL BROKEN! the packaging was terrible. the reason i didnt give one star is because people will think the music is bad, my rating is going off solely on because the case is useless now, not even to store the cd. i dont know how but the actual disk had no scratches or anything on it. considering the broken pieces were flying all over the place.

Lesbian Bubblegum Pop
An interesting concept, while "Lesbian Bubblegum Pop" sounds like a joke it actually takes elements of electronic dance, bubblegum pop, the love songs of the mid 1960's, and an unwillingness to be shoehorned into an easy to identify box-- then combines it into easy listening. In spite of the age and sexual/political orientation of the artists it crosses over to being generally entertaining, and feels comfortable to many in their fifties as well, evoking memories of the good old days.

Constant Rotation
t.A.t.u have matured and it shows. This album is in constant rotation in my CD player. The beats, the layering and mastering are excellent. Just the right blend of pop and electronica. The girls' voices have matured as well and they are using more of their instrument, blending their natural high voices with lower, more sensuous notes. They don't have to make out on stage anymore to get attention, their talent does it for them!5 stars all the way!

Their best effort
I love the tech-music of TATU and this is their best album as a whole. It is too bad that they didn't get so much press for it.

One of the best albums of the year
For those familiar with Tatu the lesbian undertones are still there in the songs. "All about us" comes over as very similar in style to "all the things she said", but this may be deliberate just to get a sense of continuity.The quality of the production is markedly better and the girls' voices have improved notably. Some songs such as Gomenasai may come as a bit of a surprise to the listener familiar with "all the things she said" but serve to show the expanded range the girls can produce.Well worth the money

Great album
Brilliant album. According to the DVD included in this version this album is a concept album of some sorts. It's about the group going through some sort of break up and the songs reflect that. Loves me Not,Friend Or Foe.....The album is incredible and and quite dark for a pop album. It's brilliant. The album contains a poster and a dvd which has a 22mins making of the All About Us video and includes the clean video version.

Excellent album by brilliant girl group tatu.
Tatu's second album is my second favourite album of all time, it is very enjoyable to listen to, and would make an excellent Christmas present for anyone (especially girls).
