I knew it was "than lightning, be!" I'm glad I wasn't just hearing things. XD

Yeah, I think SML was one of their best.

Fly On The Wall makes me laugh, but I love it. Nothing beats Show Me Love, though. :>

Americanized or not, their songs are always different genres but still with the tatu feel to them. That's what I like. Variety. And I like this song :)
And is it just me or does the video quality seem to have improved since the russian one? Looks more realistic I think they've worked on it more O_O

Robbert, thanks for posting! I have added the lyrics to the news entry. I’m impressed that the lyrics posted by fans were accurate.

Official lyrics from tatu.ru
Stayin' up thru the night
Black or white, no big deal
Going home after dark
Rolling sleeves for the kill

Everything goes away
Dying and coming back
Falling into the fray
Forcing you off the track

Speeding and pulling back
Down & then up we go
Into the falling snow

Stay closer, be brighter
Than lightning, be
Be frightening, be lighter
Than lightning, be

Stay closer, be brighter
Than lightning, be
Be frightening, be lighter
Than lightning, be

Shooting stars dreaming of
Endless years, as they fall
Crawling back, feeling down
Is the worst way to go

Crashing into the ground
Too many lives to spend
Driving into the light
Wonderful lies to end

Crashing into the ground
Down & then up we go
Into the falling snow

Stay closer, be brighter
Than lightning, be
Be frightening, be lighter
Than lightning, be

Stay closer, be brighter
Than lightning, be
Be frightening, be lighter
Than lightning, be

Fly on the wall the best song in happy smiles and i wish they make a video for this song

on Tuesday, July 14th, Liisa said

I expected more from Snowfalls. Also didn't feel anything listening to it. And I don't think Fly on the wall would make a good single.

waw that's a great song...

on Tuesday, July 14th, Jenny said

jenn: Well, it's subjective. I've never been fond of Snegopady and would rank it among one of their worse songs. Though if you compared it to a lot of the stuff put out there by artists today, it's a lot better.

With all this talk of what would be a great single, I feel like I'm one of the few people who doesn't want FOTW but Running Blind.

on Tuesday, July 14th, Brandon said

Fly On The Wall would make a great single. The thing is, the reason why it would make a good single is also the problem I have with the song: IT'S SO AMERICANIZED!!! Yuck.

Don't get me wrong. I like the song, but it kinda sounds like a typical American pop hit.

If their work isn't great we fans still love it because its them and they are still releasing things, so are never letting us down.

What happened to whoever translated songs for 200 Po Vstrechnoj/200 km? The English versions there were very good. Since D&M the English has either made no sense or sounded pretty lame. I always prefer the Russian, with one exception, We Shout.

on Monday, July 13th, Aryle said

I like it but I'm kinda dissapionted with the songs coming off this album (at least the english tracks) they sound like literal translations of the russian because they make no sense.
At least it sounds good, though Yulia sounds a little forced.

on Monday, July 13th, cath said

does anyone know if this is going to be officially realeased on a cd along with white robe and whatever other english songs they make from happy smiles???

on Monday, July 13th, jenn said

Yup. Snegopady is definitely one of my favorite t.A.T.u. songs. Fly On The Wall seems like it would make a great single. It's got that western feel to it, and as a bonus they wouldn't have to mess around with the lyrics!

on Monday, July 13th, Sofia said

It sounds okay, I guess. They are a bit hard to understand and I don't think Yulia sounds that good. The lyrics don't really make that much sense to me, and they don't seem to flow very well.

I'm sort of disappointed with this. I think I will look forward to 'Little People' or 'Sparks' (if that will even exist) better. But 'Snowfalls' doesn't really make me excited for anything, sorry to say. I think they could have done better with it.

I don't know I haven't comment on this before now :S since I keept myself awake all night to hear/see it :D and I think it's great song :) and thanks for you who have posted the lyrics ;) since it's sometimes hard to hear what they sing :/ It's nice to hear something from "Happy Smiles" since I was a little afraid that they were more forcused on their solo careeries...

on Monday, July 13th, Amanda said

Jenn, “Snegopady” is my second favorite t.A.T.u. song (after “Vsya Moya Lyubov”). Anyway, I enjoyed “Snowfalls”, but I did not think that an international version was necessary. There are other songs, like “You And I” and “Fly on the Wall”, which would make better international singles.

on Monday, July 13th, daniel said

great but the lyrics are quite unusual :/ i still love them the same amount and it is a great achievment and song. i will shortly be downloading this song onto my ipod :D

on Monday, July 13th, jenn said

WORST THAN SNEGOPADY?! That's like, my 20somethingth favorite t.A.T.u. song!

on Monday, July 13th, Jenny said

I'm presently listening to it, and wow, I feel absolutely nothing listening to it. Which is rare when it comes to a t.A.T.u. song. I never thought I'd think something was worse than Snegopady but alas, here it is.

Hopefully someone puts up the official translation of the lyrics soon. No matter how cute they sound, lena especially, some parts of the song were very hard to understand.

on Monday, July 13th, Daniel said

Ummm... after hearing this... I reckon Yulia will have the better English career. Only because the verses that are hard to understand are Lena's...
=/

on Monday, July 13th, Sara said

Wow !!! It`s very intersting . I Love lyrics And video .

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

on Monday, July 13th, Brandon said

Hmm... It's interesting, I suppose... >_>

on Monday, July 13th, VOLKOVA said

I'm not sure about this at all. The lyrics are not quite what I was expecting. :/

on Monday, July 13th, coco said

Pronunciation still quite akward, but otherwise not bad. My fav part is "into the pouring snow!" :D

No match for the Russian version, that´s for sure, but I always prefer the russian versions...

Correction everyone
Lyrics:
Staying up
Through the night
Black or white
No big deal

Going Home
After dark
Rolling sleeves,
For the kill

Everything goes away,dying and coming back

Falling into the freight (train)
Forcing you off the track

Speeding and pulling back
Down, then up we go
Into the FALLING snow!

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

Be frightening
Be lighter
Then let me be

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

Be frightening
Be lighter
Then let me be

Shooting stars
Dreaming of endless cues
As they fall

Crawling back
Feeling dumb is the worst
Way to go

Crashing into the ground
too many lives to spare
Driving into the light
Wonderful lives to end

Crashing into the ground
Down, then up we go
Into the FALLING snow!

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

Be frightening
Be lighter
Then let me be

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

Be frightening
Be lighter
Then let me be

It's FALLING SNOW, thus why they named it SnowFALLS not Pouring Snow

AMAZING.
I love the lyrics.
"Shooting stars
Dreaming of endless cues
As they fall"
Sooooo good!

*hyperventalates* WOO!! This was epic!! Im super excited for happy smiles now!!(not that I wasn't before) Did any one notice the vidoe on youtube looked a little different? Like they added some new scenes?
Anyways, I think the lyrics really fit the video better that the russian version, but both are great! GO TATU! ♥

Yulia sounds so monotone and robotic that it made me laugh. Talk about production skillz. And they should get people with better English to write the English lyrics cause this sounds choppy. It'd be smoother that way.

it's an ok song.

on Sunday, July 12th, Tatulover said

on Sunday, July 12th, Amie said

They sounded very akward. >.<

Lyrics:
Staying up
Through the night
Black or white
No big deal

Going Home
After dark,growing seeds (?)
For the kill

Everything goes away,dying and coming back

Falling into the frame
Forcing you off the track

Speeding and pulling back
Down and then up we go
Into the pouring snow!

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

Be frightly
Be lighter
Then let me be

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

Be frightly
Be lighter
Then let me be

Shooting stars
Dreaming of endless cues
As they fall

Crawling back
Feeling dumb is the worst
Way to go

Crashing into the ground
To let them reach the spell (?)
Driving into the light
Wonderful lights to end

Crashing into the ground
Down and then up we go
Into the pouring snow!

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

Be frightly
Be lighter
Then let me be

Stay closer
Be brighter
Then let me be

Be frightly
Be lighter
Then let me be

Most of it is accurate except for the lines with (?) XD Have a great da and happy smiles! :)
