    They're one of the few artists that I can honestly say I've never heard a song I don't like by. I really do love them, although I think the whole lesbian thing is just an act.

    But I had no idea they had a new album out...it's about time. I'll have to look into it. Also there's an anime based on them in production, but I have no clue when it's being released.

    EDIT: Just heard "All About Us"...love it.

    It's not just you. They know no one would listen to the music on it's own, so they have to have something to attract horny teenage boys to listen to them.

    No, I think their music is quite good, and I listen to it "on it's own", and why would that make people listen to their music? That would just make people watch their videos and attend their concerts.

    Horny Teenage Boy #1: Hey dude, T.A.T.U. is coming into town. We got to go to their concert!
    Horny Teenage Boy #2: But dude...they're like, pop n' crap. Their music totally sucks
    Horny Teenage Boy #1: I know dude, but they're lesbians! They might make out on stage or something!
    Horny Teenage Boy #2: Duuuuude! We are so going! *high five*

    Those poor girls. Their agent or some schmuck made them push the lesbian gimmick, and I agree, that's what it was, but I know it wasn't their idea. Just something they felt they had to do to get noticed. Not that they really minded. But they're not really what I'd call lesbians. In fact one (if not both) had a boyfriend. They're open-minded best friends that are really fond of each other. They just happen to both be female. If they were born male and met each other they would have developed the same attachment. It wasn't that they were planning to get married or anything. But it's been too long since I've heard anything from them. They got conned into trying to do some Anime thing that went down the drain, but had some awesome concept art. Thanks for the update on a new album. I'll deffinitely give it a listen. And if you haven't noticed; I'm not a fan based on their lesbian gimmick ;P I do however love what they stand for. Best friends can, and sometimes do really love each other (in that special way XD).

    Yeah, apparently it got canceled due to a falling out between them and their manager. How dissapointing...no wonder I hadn't heard anything about it in forever.

    Awesome. Thanks. I didn't know the story behind it. All I knew was it was going to be Noir style or something. But they finished some concept art and got a rough idea for its creation and nothing was ever heard from it again. I really hope their come-back is less gimmicky and they can be adored for who they are and not simply based on their sex appeal.

    Heh, I just saw the video for "All About Us"...there's a scene of one of them in bed with a man and not a single scene of them hugging, kissing, or showing anything even mildly close to affection for each other, so apparently they aren't going for the lesbian immagery appeal anymore.

    Shame. It's the only thing they had going for them.

    Well one of them looks like a hooker and one of them looks like a big breasted lawyer, so I'd say they're still in business.
