i havent been here 4ever, but i really hope this is released soon, like early october since september is like impossible, an did any1 else notice that hannah montana has the same title as 1 of the new songs? yeah, i saw fly on the wall an it was sooo sad that that was my 1st thought, i just hope theyre nuthin alike, but sadly, they probably will be similar, how many variations can u have from fly on the wall? its commonly used with spying, which is the theme used by hannah montana, tho, knowin tatu, theyll probably come up with some strange take on it at least, thats what 1 can hope

Tatu just said in an interview that the album is going to be released in October!!. BUT, it's just like last December. BUT, I think it's legit. They have 3(soon 4) singles, so it kinda HAS to come out!! What do you think? |
Quite honestly, I'm going to wait until Tatu.ru makes the official release date.

Honestly, I think I must have the patience of a Saint... only when it comes to these girls though!
I could wait forever for a next album.. and I do give them props, they are doing pretty well trying to do this all by themselves and trying to get themselves a label and all.
I'm just looking forward to the end result and know it'll be amazing once we get it.

Next video from Russia.ru, Lena and Yulia talk about the third album - and more. ;)
No translation yet.
Third clip from the top.

Yeah, but it seems they are trying to grab your attention elsewhere.... They give you info. on their performances, which we've known for a while... I know they are waiting for an official date before they post it on Tatu.ru, but come on!! They have a label, they have a manager, they have the fans, they have EVERYTHING needed to be successful!! Let's go ladies, bring on the music!!!

Next Month.
Okay, this time we mean it, Next month.
Okay look....Sometimes things just don't work out. Next Month.
Crap, Yulia just got pregnant again. Next Month.
We're super serious this time. Next Month.
We just like fking with you, Next month.
I don't understand how t.A.T.u are able to get a movie out and new singles out but can't get their own album out. The whole thing is overly frustrating and ridiculous, even for t.A.T.u's unreliable management.

The press release is back up, no release date though.
But... Have a look at this...
Source: http://www.tatu.ru/en/news.html?id=668
A few changes have been made, can you see them? And no, not just the big, glaring one. ;)
I wonder if there's going to be some kind of mirror or transparency/see-through effect - or just a big black hole.

You're right about the UO logo. And definitely that one over where her heart would be has changed too.
Nyet. But, it's not the Russian Federation's flag. I have no clue what it is. But for some reason I get the feeling that it might be that logo from the "Department of Control" in the Beliy Plaschik video.
Either that or a KGB logo  |

I'm sorry but this is just beyond anything I've ever heard. Even for t.A.T.u fans and dealing with their shitty management..this is beyond testing our patience. Their management is a complete joke to use that image in the first place but then they don't even have the rights to it or any permission? Fucking idiots.
Why don't they just use the original picture with the girls?????

Hm... the ratio of English/Russian songs worries me that there will only be one album and not one Russian and one English respectively.

Why is it so important to have a release date? The album's ready when the album's ready.
And AshIdiot, it's not like we didn't get any new songs, right? Beliy Plashik/White Robe, five brand new remixes of this song (Plant of Nothing, No Mercy, Marsiano, House of Robots, Astro), 220, You and I, Ne Zhaley, Vremya Luni, Little People (performed at a concert) - that's not nothing.
Lena said in the above interview that they didn't expect how much time it would take to release an album without a big record company - this is the first time they are doing this on their own - instead of "pissing" on them, I will support them in what they do, and not deny support in a year when they need it most. Not because I'm a "blind" fan, but because I believe in what they do. |

Yeah, i have actually gone past the phaze of checking everyday to see when its released, and the actual hype of a new album, its becoming more of a chore to check up on it, expecting news of a further delay or a slight delay.
A while ago they said their songs were done? it was just printing and stuff they needed to do?
what i think is, if they don't release it before...say January, they should just release it online? it doesnt really take management to do that, they could even stick it on itunes (if they can get on it) and then just release it physically when theyve tinkered the album cover after the 1000th time.
my 2 cents. lol

It's not important, I understand that they have difficulties because they are on their own, but the way the management has been bullshitting us of saying "it will come next month" "no next month" "no wai...NEXT MONTH WE PROMISE" "ARITE NEXT YEAR!!!" They could just explain that they aren't sure when it comes, and not just throw a pointless release date to us every week.

I don't think they have been "bullshitting" us, I do believe that they honestly tried to get it out - but realized that there are many (unforeseen) factors to be considered when you release an album (or rather, two albums) without a big record label, with big money and a big organization. Lena said as much in a recent interview. Like I said: This is the first time they are doing it, and I don't mind waiting at all.
We didn't get specific release dates recently, but you know, they are damned if they do, and damned if they don't. If they give a release date and it has to be postponed, some fans are angry, and if they don't give a specific release date, some fans are still angry. It's a no-win situation for some. "They could just explain that they aren't sure when it comes" - yes, but I still believe that they had every intention to release the album when they said they would. Now we'll just have to wait and see.
My point of view is that t.A.T.u. need the support of their fanbase, especially now that they are without a record company - of course we would all like to get the new album as quickly as possible, but if it takes more time, by all means: Take the time. |

I ditto everything Xena said for a lack of better terms.
There's absolutely no way of covering all your bases in order to avoid any unforseen circumstances that may arise. I honestly tip my hat of to these girls who've for all of their career up 'til now had a major recording label and such, for not just giving up and saying "Eff you fans". Because, believe me, I have no doubts it must have crossed their minds when they encountered some obstacles.
Instead, they did the smart thing and never gave a definite release date for the album, which is a good thing. In the meantime, they've been doing some promos, releasing videos, etc. Instead of just leaving us with nothing.
Just because they're encountering difficulties, I'm not going to turn my back on them when they need the fans support and understanding the most.
YES, it's frustrating. But, we can't possibly have any idea what they're going through because we're on the receiving end, not the production end.
Anyways, as I said, I tip my hat off to these girls. They are absolutely amazing for everything they've gone through and they're still doing it for the fans.

I don't have a problem on waiting either! there is so much other music that can keep me busy. And I wouldn't damn them for not giving a release date at all, I just don't like the way they think "Oh we have to give a fake release date to the fans so they won't get angry!". A simple "it will come around the end of 2008/beginning of 2009" and when it gets nearer, and when they are 100% sure, they give the release date, even if it would be the next day. I adore the girls for going strong, I support them, even if im not a addicted fan anymore, and I really hope they get it released this year, if not, then hopefully next year, just no more lies please.

Well, they aren't lies when they are told. Lies are when someone purposely or intentionally misleads you.
I honestly don't think they set out to give us a date and purposely did everything in their power not to release it on that date.
It's like as if you tell someone "Yes, we'll definitely hang out or whatever that day" but something comes up and you can't. You didn't lie.
Same for them. They are flawed just like the rest of humankind and they encounter unforeseen obstacles. Doesn't mean they lied.

But wouldn't you be worried and frustrated if your friend would say that three times in a row, "something came up...AGAIN", and when you ask what's going on, he/she won't answer to you.
And alright, maybe I used the wrong words "no more lies". tATu management, just give us a realistic release date the next time, k thx. |

I understand that point of view but so far, they have given us legitimate reasons as to why it hasn't been released on time. And as for a realistic release date, they thought it was doable for it to be released on a certain date, except unexpected things come up. I mean, I'd rather have a kickass album than something they felt rushed to put out because they said it would be out on this day. And it's hard to project when they'll be done because they've never done all of this on their own without a major company.
That's all I'm trying to get across.

The time is upon us 
| Quote: |
October, 15
t.A.T.u.’s third studio album “Happy Smiles” will be released October 21 (Tuesday). The first copies of the album will be delivered to two “SOYUZ” stores situated on Pyatnitskaya St. and Leninskiy Prospect, 11. On this day we’ll be giving special posters to the first buyers of “Happy Smiles” in Lelinskiy Prospect store (the number of posters is limited)!
In a few weeks “Happy Smiles” will be distributed among other stores.
Please don’t forget the 50 roubles discount coupon from the hyperion-plate “Beliy Plaschik” – it will be valid! We remind you that in “SOYUZ” stores “Happy Smiles” will cost 299 roubles.
On the release day at 9PM t.A.T.u. will welcome all the fans at the photo-and-signing session at “SOYUZ” store on Leninskiy Prospect, 11. Everybody will have a chance to sign their albums and have a professional picture together with t.A.T.u.!
Please take into account that the photo-and-signing session will last no more than two hours – please come early. |

Personally, I think that the songs and album will be worth the wait. I'm not expecting something revolutionary a-la their first album, but tatu albums for me are like those hard-to-find precious elements. One spends what seems like an eternity hoping to find them, but once you do then there's no looking back. Such material, rare as it is, really ought to be treasured.
Can't wait to spend countless hours listening and re-listening to all the new material. |

Thats great news it has a release.. for a couple of stores, but the "in a few weeks" the rest of the stores, so that means its selling like 1 stores worth, then waiting weeks for other copies
(glad people will be able to buy it though)
*wonders how i'm gonna buy a copy...*

OMG! That is so weird, I woke up at about 8 this morning, which is very strange and early for me, cos I jut had this feeling that today would be THE DAY! So I banged my laptop on but there was no news, and I thought I'd just been wishful thinking again - but it turns out my instincts were right! YAY, I must go tell everybody who cares, and even those who do not!
Still, if the final cover does have that black square on it... the only thing that will make it look better will be Julia and Lena's autographs! |

It'll be there sooner rather than later, since the press release confirmed that the official shop (and Soyuz stores) are the main retail partners. They might wait one day before putting it up, though, to keep the in-store signing appearances special.
