This product was no different that Eros Original, with which we were unsatisfied. There are beter silicone-based lubes to be had. Highly recommend Wet Platinum instead. It's superior in all regards and is of the quality I was expecting Pjur Eros Origiinal to be. The interesting thing is that a small sample of Wet Platinum arrived with the Pjur Eros order, or I would never have known about it. Wet Platinum can be found at staywetlonger dot com, among other places.

even though is not oil, it feels like it. that might be good to an extent, but if you can't wash it off with water, i don't think you want it inside you.

This is by far the best lubricant I have ever tried and great for those with sensitive skin. It has no smell and no taste which is a huge plus in my book! It feels like silk on your skin and never gets sticky feeling. I will never use anything else after trying this!

I loved the feel of this lub but it left me itchy and sore after using it twice. I have used other silicone products but have never hurt afterward. Must be something new in this one.

The pads were missing the V spring that holds the pads apart. This despite the fact that Amazon showed me the product as fitting my vehicle and the ad stating that hardware is included. I returned them and went to Autozone and bought Duralast pads that did come with the spring.

I love C.S. Forester's Hornblower series. I didn't realize he had written the book the movie was based on! It was fabulous, and after re-watching the movie, I enjoyed both equally! ( p.s. - the price was great, and shipping with Amazon Prime - 2 days, what's not to love!)

I really loved the movie, but just want to warn you that the last part of the book is wildly different than the movie, and pretty much of a bummer....... Neither of the characters come off as being very likable. I was very disappointed and wished I hadn't read it. I am a big fan of C. S. Forester's Hornblower series, but it's obvious that he has a very cynical view of women and married life, and it comes through much more strongly in The African Queen.

I bought this series two years ago and loved it! The only problem I had with the discs was what one reviewer stated, that disc one got stuck part way through episode two, and all the rest of the discs played fine. A few months ago I sat down to watch the series again and now almost every disc will not play past the half way point! I have A LOT of DVDs and this has never happened. But there is good news! The entire series is available in a boxed set from Yesasia.com. It is the Korean release with English subtitles (which are pretty good)and is on sale for $230. I've only watched two discs so far but have had no problems. Apparently MBC Korea has something that MBC America does not... quality control! Almost forgot, there are extras on these discs (no subtitles) that include interviews, photo shoots and outtakes. UPDATE I finally got through the entire set and had no problem with any disc.

This is the first historical drama that intrigued and entertained me thru the whole 62 episodes. I started watching this drama from a local Korean DTV channel that went off the air at episode 28 (we now have 2 Korean DTV channels). Then I found it and finished watching on the internet. I have been watching Japanese, Chinese, and lately Korean historical dramas since I moved here to Santa Clara, CA twenty years ago. This is the first one I have ever bought. It looks real good on my Plasma. There is so much going on in the drama it will take several times of watching it to catch all the details. This has English subtitles and set the highest TV ratings in Korea of high thirties to high forties thru out the showing last year.

The author missed out on this one. While it is a good read, the author mis-uses a genetic disease for what afflicts the heroine. Just another book to confuse the general public about neurofibromatosis.

The Daddies have a great combination of punk, ska, and swing on this album. This is a must for anyone who likes blaring brass mixed with punkish guitar sounds.Even better is that the album is named after my old hometown, Rapid City, and has a song, Skyline Drive, named after the most well known street in town. Plus Hazel SD is less than 50 miles from my home in Brookings SD.If anyone knows what the connection is between the Daddies and Rapid City SD, please email me.

If you don't love these guys from the moment you press play, there must be something wrong with your stereo. It was love at first note for me and they still make my adrenalin pump over a year(and 2 concerts) later. CPD is definately a happening band no matter what your favorite music category happens to be. And of course check out their compilation album Zoot Suit Riot.

AN EX-CON [STEPHEN BALDWIN] HELPS THE POLICE GO AFTER A SERIAL BOMBER. HAS A COUPLE OF GOOD ACTORS IN ITS CAST, BUT THE STORY IS POORLY PACED AND THE SCRIPT IS WEAK. NOT TO MENTION, THE ACTION SCENES ARE ALSO BAD. THIS MOVIE IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY. THIS MOVIE AIN'T NO BETTER OR DIFFERENT THAN ANY OF THE OTHER DIRECT TO VIDEO ACTION MOVIES THAT YOU'LL SEE IN THE ACTION SECTION OF YOUR LOCAL VIDEO STORE.

I did not enjoy this book nearly as much as I expected to. I thought the characters were unrealistic & behaved improbably throughout.While there is a certain suspension of disbelief that a reader engages in while reading fiction, this book went far beyond these limits. For instance, the protagonist, Callista, dislikes the telephone because she prefers to spend time gardening, yet allows her sister to repeatedly insist she answer & return calls when she doesn't want to; the casual way she ignores being locked in the shed is also extremely unrealistic, as is the loss of the straight razor which she left in the seat of an unlocked car. The gardening information was excellent & interesting, but the story itself disappointing.

I received this cookbook as a gift some years ago, and it has served me well. It's a great resource for all those staple homecooked dishes from south asia, but also for less common variants and some Persion and Middle Eastern dishes that have seeped into our cuisine. For such a small book, it covers quite a bit of the cuisine.Many of the recipes are simple with the minimum of ingredients, and the directions are fine with only a few slip-ups here and there. On the whole a definite necessity in a desi kitchen.

Contrary to the reviewer who says it is not clear that this is only one volume of 3, I thought there was 6 or 7 volumes altogether. The title clearly says "The Thirteen Books of the Elements, Vol.2: Books 3-4", so obviously this is volume 2 of a collection. Knowing that the original Elements had 13 books, my assumption was there must be several more volumes in this new edition. Actually, Amazon's title of the book is wrong! If you look at the front cover, or the index of this book, you can see that it says "Vol.2 (Books III-IX)". And if you are interested to know, volume 1 covers books I and II, and volume 3 covers books X through XIII so altogether they cover the original Elements entirely.Update (10/14/2010):At the time I wrote the previous review, the book's title was "The Thirteen Books of the Elements, Vol.2: Books 3-4". Obviously Amazon must have realized the mistake and corrected the title to "...: Books 3-9")

I have been a fan of Rush for almost 20 years know, this started when I was a kid of 15, the rythim they use and the "fairy tale lyrics" just sounded cool to me.Now after 20 years I find the music still inspires me and through life's ups and downs the words can give direction and peace. As a non native english speaker I wanted to "understand" the meaning better. This book really gave a new depth to that.

I can't believe I bought the back cover hype, and purchased this book. Mr. Roberto should have begun most sentences with, "Uh...". Lacking confidence, he speculates on the shallow, obvious sides of Neal's brilliant lyrics. I can only surmise that a Writers Club Press saw dollar signs, conspired with a bogus editer, and convinced Mr. Roberto that his internet thoughts would make a good book. But, c'mon Len, this book is in your name, and your reputation. How could you have not fleshed out this manuscript to make it readable? Skip this book, and read Mystic Rythums.

I don't really have to say anything more than the reviewers before me have said. Thankfully the book is short so if you do fall victim to reading it you won't have wasted much time and if you've purchased it you won't have wasted much money. The only reason I've given it even one star is because it is about Rush and their music. It is just plain awful.

Really Bad. Embarrassingly bad. In fact, this book is so bad that I don't want to dignify it further by saying any more than that.On the other hand, if clarifying and delving deeper into Neil Peart's prosaic and allegorical lyrics is of interest to you, then I strongly recommend "Mystic Rhythms: The Philosophical Vision of Rush" by Carol Selby Price and Robert M. Price (5 stars).

For a book on the lyrics of a band as complex and intellectual as Rush's, this book is a joke. Even with the most simple examination of these songs, I can not figure out how this author could have come up with this analysis. I am a die-hard Rush fan and I still could hardly get through it.

I love the short concise chapters--so zen. He gets to the point and doesn't let the reader forget why she started writing--for joy! For fun! He encourages; he makes us laugh. When I'm having a down day either writing new projects, or promoting my novel, "Forever Retro Blues," I love to pick this book up and just flip to a page. Inevitability, there is some priceless gem of advice that bolsters me.

First of all I'd like to point out that these girls are NOT lesbians. It may have been an act but in the words of lena (the red-head) "We never said we were lesbians, we just love each other" Ok, now the disc is pure amazing joy! Yes they can sing!! These girls give electronic pop techno a new meaning! they really know how to hit it off. Every song is worth mention in this album! they all talk about stuff you could understand and like! If you like this album check out their russian counterpart, which dare I say is even better! They also have a new album "Dangerous and Moving" and it also is terribly good. Check them out!

this cd rocks. I love the songs "All The Things She Said", "Not Gonna Get Us", "How Soon Is Now?" & " Show Me Love". They are definetly the best girl band of the planet.This cd is definetly one of the best ever recorded. My other favourite cd's are Dannii Minogue - "Neon Lights", Craig David - "Slicker Than Your Average", Avril Lavigne - "Let Go", Busted - "Busted", Sugababes - "Angels With Dirty Faces" & Gorillaz - "Gorillaz"

I heard about t.A.T.u about half a year ago from a friend. I heard a lot of their Russian songs, and I loved all of them. That's why I was so excited to hear that they were coming out with a English album. It's hard to put t.A.T.u's music in a certian musical category, it's a mix of lots of kinds of music. The lyrics to their songs are great. I'm bisexual so I can relate so most of the songs, but even my friends who are straight can find something that they can relate to. I can't pick one song that stands out on the album, they are all amazing! Anyone who has enjoyed their first single off this album, "All The Things She Said", will enjoy this album.So, if you are still debating whether to get '200 Km/H in the Wrong Lane', go ahead and get it! I promise you won't be disappointed!

i didn't like what the editor's review had to say about t.a.t.u's cd! i love t.a.t.u and they sing great! i love their music(not only their act). and i have a great feeling they're going to invade the u.s. by storm and bring household pop to a new meaning and perspective! they will reinvent pop and will be very big, i feel this to be true. i want to say, i bought their english cd, and have bought their russian cd as well. they rock!!! beautiful music, great voices, and wonderful lyrics! there couldn't have been a better band out there than t.a.t.u!!!

this album is the most refreshing burst of music that i have heard in a long time. it has angst, humor, love and a hint of mystery with the two russian tracks. and the fact that the tracks were in russian lets the audio consumer hear what the girls of tATu wanted us to hear, and how much it lost when it was translated to english.buy this if you want an album that doesn't require you as the listener to skip most of the tracks, all of the tracks are a joy to listen to.

I first heard of t.A.T.u through my younger sister. I loved the single "All the things she said" and when I bought the album I loved all their songs. It is a fantastic album and the mixture of dance and pop work really well.My only problem is that one of the tracks "stars" has large sections in russian and as I dont speak russian I dont know what they are singing about.but that is my only problem. The album is superb and I will be looking out for future releases from the duo.

I bought the album because some collegues told me, there are two russian girls who have produced a very good album, i heard the song ALL THE THINGS SHE SAID, and i was fascinated of them, so i went to a CD Shop in Switzerland and I bought this CD. All the other Albums i have there are 2 or 3 good songs but the rest aren't very good. So i heard to this Album 200 km/h in the wrong lane, and all 12 songs are very very good. Julia and Lena have very nice voices, i hope they will come to Switzerland, and i wish they will give the best concert we ever had in Switzerland in the Hallenstadion in Zurich. I can only say they are great and please buy this wonderful Album! I'm sure you won't worry about it!! TATU FOR PRESIDENT!

As contrived as t.A.T.u. may be, there's no denying this album has a kind of over-the-top grandeur, "Wuthering Heights" for misunderstood teens...The roaring guitars and hard beats are better than the contrived pop of their American and British counterparts. The track selection is rather skimpy; only 8 songs, followed by two Russian versions and a slightly extended version. The latest Russian counterpart to this album has about 15 songs, the best of which should have been added. Listening to this is a guilty pleasure, like listening to ABBA.

A great re-release from Russia with love. Definitely on the light side of the bubblegum scene, but with Trevor Horn behind them it may go good. Everyone has heard/seen "All the Things She Said" and I don't think anything more needs to be said of that. Just to prop these babes up from the one-hit classic bunch, I have to give a thumbs up for "Not Gonna Get Us" as well as "Show Me Love." I just hope that they don't let their image eat away thier chances at making a musical statement. We saw this in the last decade with Fem 2 Fem. I hope this helps open the door to more of the talent hidden in Mother Russia.

The music of Tatu is great ... but be warned that the CD they are selling is not actually a music CD at all. The CD I received is labelled as [ENHANCED], and apparently that means no music. All my CD contained was a Music Video and some Behind the Scenes content.

I highly respect the producers for making such nice songs. Unfortunately it's ruined by two Russian "lesbian" couples. The singing is horrible; they use their "good enough" voice and edit it on music software. I have no idea why people think they're so good. It's because most people are only attractive by the lesbian acts or their cute looks.

My sister got this thing, and made me listen to it. I really don't hate a lot of music, but this. *shudder* This is terrible, on all levels.First, there was the "lesbian" stunt, which was simply disgusting and cheap. Even if they WERE actually lesbians, they way they played up that angle was just... repulsive.Well, fine, publicity smublicity. If the music is good, we can forgive that cheat stunt.Ha. The music? Generic, forgettable dance. And the voices are annoying and ear-drum shatteringly shrill. And repeatative. Since I didn't get enough of the singer's shrieking out "They're not gonna get us" the first time! Eugh... And they don't even write or anything on their songs. All they do is sing. In short, UGH.

Tatu will never appear on the cover's of the pop magazines like Justin Timberlake and Avril lavigne did when they succeeded on their first albums.Tatu are just obnoxious with their songs and music.The lyrics to the songs are constantly repeated and they look like their everywhere when you look at them by analyzing. Those background laughs in ''30 minutes'' are annoying and know this none of Tatu's videos appeared on muchmore music but Avril lavigne's did.It's easy to explain how come ''not gonna get us now'' didn't make it on the countdown which pop videos usually do because it wasn't popular and not very good. It looks embarassing when the British banned a Tatu video and not letting Julia into a Mcdonalds.It just looks so phony that these girls are homosexual and they probably aren't...they probably do what their manager told them what to do. Tatu are shams and you should feel ashamed by wasting your money on this disgraceful exploitation of a Europop album.

If you don't belive me, listen to track #7.Several of the songs on this CD try to evoke emotion, put fall flatly on their collective face. I don't blame the vocalist(s), but the struggle to phonetically get through the English lyrics is at times amusing. In contrast (and in all fairness), the two tracks that are in Russian, in my opinion, are far more provoking. It's a shame that the marketing machine has managed to bury their talent.

Music continues to go further down the drain to Hades. T.A.T.U is another fine example of great marketing but no substance whatsoever underneath the slick, marketing appearance. First of all, WTH were they thinking of covering The Smiths' classic "How Soon is Now?"? Have the girls in T.A.T.U even heard of The Smiths? Whoever thought it would be a swell as to pass off two underage girls as lesbians singing chirpy pop songs is a 'genius' to come up with that ploy to sell records. If anything, the person responsible for T.A.T.U's image needs a swift kick in the arse for giving lesbians a bad name. "All the Things She Said" is an awful song. I would take Kidneythieves' "Before I'm Dead" over this duo and I'm no fan of Kidneythieves either but at least that band has a singer who can actually sing and music that doesn't make me nauseous.

This cd is absolutely perfect!... It also happens to be the most catchy set of tracks in the history of compact disks. You will constantly have this cd "running through your head". Well this cd may not appeal to all people it certainly hit a sweet spot with me. You can just hear emotion pouring out of your each verse, not to mention this is the perfect driving music. To summerise there is alot more here than a marketing gimmeck, I personally insist you purchase it now!...

This cd is a great listen, I really enjoy the "How Soon is Now?" cover (an old the smiths song). There is a few flaws in there english songs but they are obviously new to the language and I wish Lena and Julia could express themselfs more through the english language when it comes to the enhanced movies on there CD but they run into there language barrier.It does seem that they are a heavily produced duo on stage and off but there is so many pop acts in America currently that are worse so I don't see this as much of a problem since they are both young and need direction til they can find there own musical journey to take. Hopefuly as there english learning progresses and they can express themselfs more through lyrics and interviews they will be a fantastic act to watch in the future.Good luck breaking through into the USA, it is a tuff journey and I hope you plot it well else they will become a one-hit-wonder in America.

Hello. I think that this Cd is 2002 best cd (well, maybe the second, after Springsteen). The songs are very good (they are 8 new songs, very good, songs). My favorites are: All the things she said and Show me love. The rest (30 seconds, not gonna get us, malchik gay, clowns, Stars) are, also, great. There is a new version of "how soon is now?", a very good songs for this girls' voices. Well, the songs are fantastic, but THE BEST of the cd is Julia and Lena's voices; THEYR VOICES ARE INCREDIBLE. Please, belive me, YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS CD NOW !!! NOW!!!. Thank you, and TATU FOREVER.

t.A.T.u (translated into 'she likes that girl') is so new and shocking only because of their image. They kinda make it seem like they're only in this for a publicity stunt (namly because they're lesbians.) I kinda find that sick, and despite that, their lyrics are just nothing by rambling on and on and on. However, I will give them thumbs up for the rythm on most of their tracks (which is why their music is appealing aside the fact that their foriegn.) I just hope that next time their lyrics would be more important and defining in their future albums.

I suppose every year needs a flimsy pop record for people to dance to. The very fact that the hype over their sexual orientation overshadows the music should serve as a dead giveaway that these two girls are about selling records more than making music of any lasting importance. Having said that, this is disposable pop at its most crass. Turning the Smiths jangle-pop classic "How soon is now" into a mindless Euro-dance track is not only a travesty, it's rather ironic given what the song was originally written about. Subtract out the pouts, contrived hype, and cheesy beats, and your left with a disc I suspect will be easy to find in the used bin in 6 months.

One word for this album would be, amazing. 200 km/h in the wrong lane rocks, and there first single, All the things she said has a total pop/dance beat, My favorite song would have to be 30 min though. This song has the best lyrics and relates to me the most. Everyone should check this out!

The first time I heard "All the Things She Said" on the radio, I was hooked. I couldn't get that song out of my head. So every time I was in my car, I was hunting through the stations madly trying to find it again. Then, I decided that song alone was worth a purchase of this CD. And I was pleasantly surprised to find an album full of songs so catchy that you will be dancing furiously when you are listening to them and humming them constantly when you aren't. On top of the 8 or so original songs, you get a couple interesting Russian versions and even better, a music video AND an interesting behind-the-scenes look.What else can I say? The duet are sexy Russian lesbians(this alone will gather much attention and interest from the guys) with pretty voices and beautiful, melodic tunes. I look to T.A.T.U's future with much interest. Don't miss this album! It's so much better than most of the ... out there.

Flash in the pan. In the United States anyway. This duo may be popular in Russia, but I don't see how these girls will ever be more than their one hit "All The Things She Said" here in the U.S. Their music is over the top bubble gum pop. They have a couple of songs that have a catchy beat to them which make them passable, but the majority of the album doesn't even have that going for it. Their sound tends to remind me of music from an anime film. They have two things going for them... 1) They're very attractive girls and in this day and age appearance matters as much if not more than the music itself (see Britney for proof)... and 2) Their songs are already synth pop so it's easy for Dj's to remix them into electronica dance songs.In the end they have only two songs even worth listening to... "All The Things She Said" and "Clowns" because of their catchy beats. I would suggest buying these on singles instead of the whole album.

My son enjoys a variety of music and often will hold out something to share with me, which is what he did with T.A.T.U.I sat and listened to the entire CD and found myself enjoying it beyond merely *OK*.After I listened to it and decided I quite liked it, I did an online search to find out what they are all about. What interesting reading. I guess it doesn't much matter to me if they happened because of a 'marketing ploy'. The fact is I enjoyed the CD - which is what's important to me. ...If a lot of people enjoy what they created well then they should make money, eh? I don't get all the fussing about these two girls. It's entertainment, I enjoyed it quite a bit. A nice change from some of the drivel the local radio stations play! If their subsequent music is as enjoyable- one of us will be spending money to have it.

I just want to say that this cd has brought a remarkable insiration in my life. There are so many words to explain it that i cant possibly think of. They shed light on girls around the world who are scared to let out who they are and what they beleive in. Anyone who is everyone should buy this cd just to experience a little on the wild side. And if your Russian I'm sure you know what I mean. Please go buy this cd and make T.A.T.U a worldwide favorite.

I rarely buy albums because it's usually only a couple tracks that drives you to buy them in the first place. After downloading their tracks from the net to check it out (all now deleted I must add!) I decided to order their album. I must admit to preferring the Russian version best as it seems more traditional Russian than English dance music. After having to put up with UK's fabricated bands & charts t.A.T.u's music is welcome with open arms. Future albums will be bought straight away as will all single releases. All I need to do now is find somewhere I can order the Russian version from. These girls, even though they're *not* lesbians (who cares anyway?) are going to take the globe by storm!

t.A.T.u's '200 km/h in the Wrong Lane' is a complete sucess. I just can't will myself to take the cd out of my cd player. Julia Volkova and Lena Katina from Moscow, Russia have "#1" written all over them. Great songs ranging from the upbeat "Not Gonna Get Us" to more serious "Stars," all of these songs will be played on radio stations nonstop. I highly recommend this cd, buy it and experiece this for yourself!

I went through hell to get this cd. And it was worth it. I bought the single first, and had to wait until December 10th to get the full length one. The best part of Tatu is that they have a great edge and I like the fact that they are not "Backstreet Boys" Big (In America). In all honesty I would like to buy some of their previous cds. I really like the beat and sound that I heard from this cd. Also they have a great look about them, very real and believable.

If there is anything more mainstream than this CD I would quit listening to music. 1st off they are not musicians and probly never will be. They used they're good looks and kissing each other to sell records. Don't get me wrong wvery guy likes to see a couple of hot chicks make out together but come on, the misicianship is not there. Nice try, I'm gonna go ahead and do the honor of labeling them a 1 hit wonder. "All the things she said" had a catchy beat but I just wish they would'nt have said anything. I give this CD a 1 out of 10.

The only reason for their fame is because they're lesbians and there are people out there that would throw away 12 bucks just to listen to lesbians sing about nonsense. I don't have a problem with lesbians at all, I'm just saying that's the only reason why people would listen to tatu. So what if they're lesbians? Does that mean they're talented? In this corrupt world where money is God, people will buy anything. I agree with other reviewers that this group is nothing more than a project created by some fat, middle aged guy who just wants to fatten his wallet. I remember seeing a commercial about tatu on TV. Corrupting our youth? Heck yeah, because that's what the middle aged guy wants. He wants to fool everybody into thinking this is real music so he can get more money. It's not working on me, however. I'm not buying this CD. I actually buy good music. Just a word to the wise, don't buy this CD. They're not that hot and the lyrics are stupid.

It's hard to take the music seriously when I doubt that they're even being honest about their sexuality.Music-wise, it sounds like old-school Britney Spears trying to rock out - horrible on paper, even horribler live (I know that horribler isn't a word, but this stuff is so bad, that it deserves a new word for bad that means ten thousand times worse than CRAP!) Clever idea, trying to capitalize on an industry driven by sex appeal, but little more than that. Even watching them make out on stage gets boring after a while.

While this CD may be good for dancing purposes, it has no depth in terms of lyrics and the vocals are very weak artistically to call the two girls who pretend to lead a gay lifestyle for publicity purposes singers.

This is one of my favourite albums, Since I am a Russian, I've been listening to Russian versions of "Not gonna get us" and "All the things she said", only recently have I heard the English versions, They are very good in both languages, but they're cooler in Russian, I love this CD and I reccomend it.

I was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed it, very good vocals, sound and production. This is not normally my style of music, but this is an excellant recording. I would normally give this two stars but added plus one for recording and plus one for production.

tAtu or tATy to the Russians is a great turn in music and relationship views. The combination of English translations and Russian originals makes this a fun CD to listen to.

As a native of Russia, I thought t.A.T.u was going to be a band with no talent, who want to show the world that they are proud to be lesbian. But after my English friend gave me this cd in English, it has grown on me alot. So what if they don't write their own songs? Britney Spears doesn't, but that doesn't stop people from liking her. So judging them by not writing their own songs is narrow-minded.

ok, this gimmic of theirs is clever because they're both pretty damn cute, but aren't very talented in the singing area. one of my friends bought this CD several days ago and i thought i was going to insane because of how they sounds. in "not gonna get us" they sound like a couple of off-key chipmunks. some of the lines in "all the things she said" just plain don't make any sense.maybe i'm one of the few who can see right through this gimmic for what it really is....an attempt to sell [bad] records with hot girls who claim to be "in love with eachother."

I really liked this cd. The songs are great they come across as lite and fun but when you listen to the lyrics you see how deep they are. True the girls didn't songs but that doesn't make them bad. I love when artists write there own songs but it's not a requirement for a great song. As far as the lesbian thing who cares if it's real or marketing. Too much importance is put on musicians personal life who cares. These girls have great voices and sing great songs with terrific music. All the Things She Said and Not Gonna Get Us get all the praise and are good but not the best the album has to offer. Stars is touching even though part of it is in Russian. How Soon is Now wonderful the first time I heard it I was trying to figure where I knew it from I finally did. Clowns and Show Me Love are wonderful.

This album is a hell of a lot of fun. It is filled with a great pumping rhythm and makes you bump to the beat! There is no folk music or sad sad problems drawn out in horrible harmony. This album may have it's angst ridden lyrics but it is just so much fun to dance to. Many of the songs are written like action movie scripts with lyrics like "Not gonna get us" and "Do we run? Should I hide? For the rest of my life?"I originally bought this CD after hearing "All the Things She Said" on the radio. Lo and behold this CD kicked my butt and then I got a look at the insert pictures. Hot, my friends. Definitly HOT. The music is awesome, the singers gorgeous. What more could you want?!?! I am definitly waiting impatiently for a new album!

This is a fun, catchy album. I wouldn't expect too much from this album- it is what it is! The first release from two teens with strong and pleasant vocals. They have a lot to say and are supported by awesome beats/tunes. I think it's good to put out there 'pro-lesbian lyrics' (if you will) and a little controversy for more PR is not such a bad thing either. If you are not uncomfortable with what these girls have to say/sing - which isn't really 'in your face' nor mentioned much anyway- then you'll likely enjoy this album. Hopefully they will release a more vocally-refined follow-up album within a decent amount of time as well.

I was very surprised at how much i liked this CD. The first song i ever heard was on the russian version of the 30 minutes video. It drew me in and kept me there, and combined with the American version it's one of my favorites on the CD. Clowns is my favorite though, if you listen closely you can hear a russian beat similar to the original Tetris by Nintendo! Sure the vocals sound like someone's torturing mice, but these days with all the hate and hipocrit "music", mice aren't so bad. The only slight disappointment i had was that only like 6 songs are American and the others are Russian versions of those songs. While it's a good multi-cultural experience, i'm looking forward to more original content.

I saw the T.A.T.U. video on MTV and I really like the song Not Gonna Get Us, so I decided to get the cd. The lyrics are kind of simple, but the beats of most of the songs are great. I believe that about three of the songs are in Russian as well.All in all, I think this CD is worth buying, just for the simple fact that it is a fun album and you can dance to it. Plus, it is really fun to drive to as well!

If you really want to hear this album the way it was intended to be heard, get the Russian version. You could probably find the translation somewhere on the net. While their English debut is intended to captivate the North American crowd, it is clearly inferior to the Russian release. Due to their accent and unsuitable voice for English lyrics, a few songs sound a little comical while some of their best tracks are missing. Whatever happened to Robot and Ya Tvoi Vrag?? Nevertheless, I gave it 4 stars for their well spent effort.

Its no secret that this band is a product. It has everything it needs to sell in the West: controversial as always lesbianism, iron courtain feeling and catchy melodies. I cannot imagine a better plan. With this in mind, just enjoy the cheesy music. By the way, this is good pop, with a smart musician behind and really good mixing. I think its the most crude evidence of the music industry of our times, so take it as historical evidence if you want to. I'd rather listen to this cyborg of a duo than to [bands] who really believe in their punk like Sum 41. Its all about who lies less to themselves.TATY is not TATU in russian - its just the "y" in cyrilic sounds like a "u" in latin alphabet. Al though they are from Moscow, they are not such a big thing in Russia. You see, Russians are not so easy costumers, and are not thrilled by the controversial, as is the West. And regarding the girls, they could be any two girls walking down Tverskaya St - they are ALL as beautiful, and more.

These girls are great, the album combines great dance music with truly inspired lyrics. The enhanced content is great, especially the music video for "All the things she said", which is my favorite song on the album, particularly the russian version. Buy it and enjoy!

Fun, frothy stuff from more girls with a bunch of guys putting words in their mouths and beats behind them. Not really a new concept, is it?"All the Things She Said" works fine and locked itself in my head for days, but then so did "The Sign" by Ace of Base when it came out. The whole of the disc is fine and has plenty of electronic samples and sterile echo tricks to amuse one, and the Russian versions of the tracks are nice little surprises.Though I would be delighted to see Tatu grow as artists, I cannot help but think they are the Chumbawumba of 2003.

Tatu is a wonderful display of talent and courage. The songs are wonderful and the girls are amazing for having the courage to come here and openly show their opinions to our prejudiced country. I admire them and the cd is WELL worth the money and will give anyone plenty of entertainment.

T.A.T.U., I don't quite know what to do with you. I actually enjoy the music, not despite or because of the "gimick" ..., but I enjoyed the sound of the group before I comprehended the words or saw the video. Now I myself quite enjoy the idea of girls in love,... But when it comes to this subject, I like to see the subject of teenage [relationships] handled more delicatly. Because otherwise it's just feeding into the latest fad. ...

This Cd is one of the better ones i have purchased in the last few month's, it has exceptionally good music with no profane language in it, but that doesn't mean it reduces it's quality, it's safe for listener's of all ages and it can be purchased for the low price of 9.96

Look out Shirley Manson and Courtney Love! T.A.T.U's album really rocks! After All The Things She Said was released months ago I anxiously awaited the release of their album ... and it was well worth the wait! Both girls voices carry a very wide range and the combination of their styles makes for a very unique sound. But aside the much hyped lesbian relationship of these two Russian teen vamps because once you hear the cd you'll only want more. The music speaks louder than any marketing stratagem and it screams FIERCE!

This duo might have talent but it is hard to tell from this alblum. As is far to common to pop the producer over uses synthetic effects to alter the voices of the singers. While te music is fast and can be danced to it has a forced and artificial feel to it. After listening to most of these songs once or twice the novelty has worn off and the CD is put back in its case to collect dust until the next garage sale

This is the latest twist in a failing music world, if you can call making two teenagers sing as a lesbian act and be managed by nothing short of a paedophile music, then i have nothing more to say, the quality of music continues to decline, teeny boppers and people who bought this CD and their singles thank you very much for supporting this dire enterprise, the sooner they are gone, the better! Listen to the real musicians with talent, i have more respect for Christina Aguilera than this 'act', and that's saying a lot! Hey how about i go find two of my girl friends and tell them to kiss and sing, gee i'd have a lesbian music act, no talent, just rubbish!

I think it just highlights the state of the music industry nowadays when record companies have to go as far as russia to reel in the money. Although i think it was a really well executed plan to bring two very controversial, easily manipulated youngsters to our ears. Musically the album is pretty good and the songs show some degree of emotion, i think the vocals are grating at times but that's all down to taste. "How soon is now?" is a very tame effort, which was a song written by "The Smiths" in the 80s. The record company wanted to produce easily digestable pop and it succeded. You'll love the songs just long enough to go out and buy the album which will be forgotten in a couple weeks of listening. If you think you've created a special emotional bond with the fore metioned artists think again, they don't even understand what their singing (They Don't speak English) Vocals are dull and unemotional. :)

If it weren't for their lesbian and contraversial image, this group would never have gotten to this point with just their "talent" alone. This album comprises of nothing but them shrieking, and singing shrilly the same lines over and over again. A good example is the song Not Gonna Get Us in which they scream the title line repeatedly till you feel like punching your stereo or the TV. If you relish giving yourself a pounding headache then this is the album for you. If not, stay far far away.

Adding "200km/h in the wrong lane" to my CD-collection is probably the best thing I've done for a long time. The CD has a good mix of slow relaxing songs and up-tempo songs including both songs in English and Russian. By having the two girls singin at the same time it lifts the song to a higher level. Together they make the songs even more powerful. The lyrics isn't always clear but, probably, that's the good thing about those, a bit, mysterious girls from Russia. It's also great that Russia, as a country, shows that also they produce modern and good music. Enjoy!

I wasn't expecting much from these "lesbian posers" but I was pleasantly surprised when I listened to the album. The super-addictive "all the things she said" really got to me so I bought the CD. There's some pretty good stuff on here despite their high-pitched singing. Tracks like "not gonna get us", "show me love" and "stars" are really well done.On the other hand 200KM/H IN THE WRONG LANE IS a really short CD with only 8 songs. The other 3 tracks are Russian versions of "all the things she said", "not gonna get us" and an extended version of "show me love". Lyrically this CD deals with gay love. Even the straight forward "malchik gay" deals with being in love with a gay boy.Despite Lena & Julia's girl-on-girl gimmick, 200KM IN THE WRONG LANE is worth checking out.

The sound that T.A.T.U. has is very interesting, and while their image is being marketed to overly-hormonal straight teenage boys, their message is great, even if ignored, and something to be paid attention to by all people.I'm saddened by the way they're being portrayed and reviewed. Being lesbian is not something to "turn on" the boys. It is not something to sell their music. It is the way they are, and making music about it is no more remarkable than any of the hundreds of artists making songs about heterosexual love.The album is awesome - but buy it for the right reasons.
