Люди Инвалиды (Lyudi Invalidy) is the second Russian-language studio album (fourth overall) by the Russian music duo, t.A.T.u.. It was released on October 21st, 2005. It was also released in other countries, such as Japan, Mexico and Poland. It is available to purchase and listen to on the Russian market. Lyudi Invalidy includes four Russian versions of the songs from its English counterpart, Dangerous and Moving, two songs in English, and completely new Russian songs not heard on Dangerous and Moving. It sold over 300,000 units and is certified in Russia.

Production

Differences from Dangerous and Moving

Lyudi Invalidy and Dangerous and Moving have eight tracks in common, either in the form of being the same track or being English/Russian-counterparts.

  • "Люди инвалиды" / "Dangerous and Moving" (49-second intro)
  • "All About Us"
  • "Loves Me Not"
  • "Обезьянка ноль" (an English version, "Null and Void", exists.)
  • "Космос" / "Cosmos (Outer Space)"
  • "Ничья" / "We Shout"
  • "Новая модель" / "Perfect Enemy"
  • "Люди инвалиды" / "Dangerous and Moving" (full version)

Three tracks from Lyudi Invalidy do not have counterparts on Dangerous and Moving:

  • "Ты согласна" (Ty Soglasna / You Agree)
  • "Вся моя любовь" (Vsya Moya Lyubov; an English version, "All My Love", exists in demo form with only Lena singing but was not recorded with both Lena and Yulia.)
  • "Что не хватает" (Chto Ne Khvatayet / What Is Missing)

Four tracks from Dangerous and Moving do not have counterparts on Lyudi Invalidy:

  • "Friend or Foe"
  • "Gomenasai"
  • "Craving"
  • "Sacrifice"

In “Cosmos”, an extra verse is sung after the second chorus. In “Космос”, this is an instrumental break.

On Dangerous and Moving, "Loves Me Not" has different music than the version on the Russian album counterpart Люди-инвалиды (Lyudi Invalidy). Among other differences, the Lyudi Invalidy version features 29 seconds of instrumentals before the lyrics start, while the Dangerous and Moving version skips straight to the lyrics; and the Dangerous and Moving version features guitars during the chorus, which are absent from Lyudi Invalidy’s version.

Reception

Controversy

In November 2006, a lawsuit was filed against t.A.T.u. over the album and song (both titled “Lyudi Invalidy”) which literally translates to “Disabled People”. Leonid Vakuev, a human rights representative for the Komi Republic, interpreted the song as being directed towards disabled people and cited words written in the booklet for the album, which said: " do not know what it means to be a human being. They are fakes inside the human form. They do not live, but — function". Katina said, "Of course, we meant moral invalids, people who do not have a soul and human feelings." When Katina was asked if they had anything against disabled people, she stated that she finds it offensive to refer to people by that term, and added, "We take pictures together and make sure they have priority seats ."
