[spookshow]

*happy dance*

here you go! (just ignore the poor camera work lol)


and here are the lyrics (thanks to yeahNelly at the UKmix forums)
WHITE ROBE LYRICS

Feeling lonely, looking faded
Yellow ribbons, black from fading
Word is written, bone is broken
No big secret left unspoken
Silence feinted in the corner
While it's never getting warmer
All the lies they keep on telling
But you never check the spelling

Flying bullets
Hit the targets
Wings and halos,
Five to seven
In this white robe/dress?
through the darkness
There I'm flying
back to heaven!

Time is running we are sitting
Back together, just for fading
You are crying in the corner
All was lost and never forward
Open up and let me hear it
Come abide our future spirit
Brain is useless (you?) looking
Open doors but dead man walking

[TITANIC]

WARGHHHHHHH TATU finally come back...
i've been waiting for new english song for 2 years

[Richieooxx]

Does anyone have an mp3 of Ludi Invalidi and the remix of it? I love that song and I cant find it anywhere

[Ayufan11]

wow, those translations are horrible! flying bullets hit the targets? lmao

[[kokoro♥]]

It's not a translation, it's the lyrics for the english version of the song =/

[Ayufan11]

yeah well its a translation of their russian song they translated it so poorly im sure they couldve translated it better without the lyrics being really lame they sound like a kid wrote it lol it seems like they just made sure the lines fit in the music not caring what it said

It's not a direct translation. It's completely new lyrics with a similar theme -w-;; If it would have been a translation, the lyrics would match up, but the english ones are new and wrote for that version of the song. Not a translation at all.

[spookshow]

^ that's t.A.T.u. for you. *sigh* i wish they'd leak some demos, like the lena demos we have for LI/D&M.

as for the whole "that translation sucks" complaint -- you need to keep in mind that the english lyrics need to flow with the music. the last thing i want to hear is poor lean/yulia trying to rush through a perfect translation. Besides, it gives each song it's own meaning and feel -- just look at obez'yanka-nol and Null & Void -- same music, but two different songs meaning-wise. Personally, i like the english translation -- i think they leave the translation vague so you can interpret the song in your own way.

[TITANIC]

any reason why they pushed back?

[fake_foxtail]

I've got one of their Russian albums its name is 100 PO... or something in Russian of course. I love it. Espeicially remix of 30 minit... I bought it from Estonia.

[drewbilation]

^ I hate that remix of "30 Minut." it drags on and on, imo, and the music is so boring. the original version is <333 though.

[fake_foxtail]

The remix I mean is "Moscow Grooves Institute Remix"

[TITANIC]

WHAT?
i never heard? can you upload for me?

[drewbilation]

^ here you go. I've included both the English and Russian versions of the remix, neither of which were ever officially released in the US as far as I know. the English version is on the Australian "How Soon Is Now?" single and the Russian version is on the re-issue of their first Russian album.

[Ayufan11]

then they shouldve found a better lyricist, the lyrics sound kind of cheezy. thats just my opinion though not trying to piss anyone off anyways i already bought the russian single of it i cant wait to get mines signed too! yay

Hahaha, they should have. The lyrics are really poor on the english albums. I think they split up the lyrics into just phrases instead of having a sentence that runs two or three lines. I think that was the problem with their last album too.
