i believe that fad has died here in the US also - but who knwos, if they were to do more lesbian-ish stuff i'm sure the record buying public would take notice. however, i heard that they're dropping that schtick. which means no one will care anymore

i think that they broke up sometime ago. they said that they could not stand the fact that they were famous just for their lesbo kisses. if i'm not wrong one of the two said that she was a preparing a solo album.

I'm so trying not to make a joke about 'solo' album, given their past record...

I actually liked that song, All The Things She Said. It was produced by Trevor Horn, the man responsible for 'Video Killed The Radio Star', Frankie Says Relax, and ABC's The Look Of Love, the final one being the pinnacle clearly.

But actually the track was pretty good, insanely catchy and really well made. One of the better pop releases of the last couple of years, I reckon.

They also did a cover of "How soon is now?"

That song was also used for "Charmed". What a shame.

They had their 15 minutes. Now they'll get the eternity of obscurity they so richly deserve.

Come on, Cheddar, we all know that the best pop release (and I'm talking about commercial pop) was "Can't get you out of my head".

Do you know that one of them (Julia) does not speak English at all? Lena is pretty good, she was taken English classes before working on album. Wonder, how's that possible? I wouldn't tell from their singing and found out from an interview they were given at KTU in New York.

so she can sing in english but not talk?
quite a feat.

i also read the other day that they're renouncing their lesbian status....pretty lucrative bi-curious phase for them really.

i remember seeing their video back in NZ and they showed them kissing and all that jazz, but the next time i saw it was in the UK, and all that had been edited out.
damn the UK and their censorship.

I agree about it being a good pop song and they had one or two more on the cd. The cover of How soon is now was a shock though, it sounded like Morissey on Helium. Ugh.

I've always wondered if they're realy gay. If they are then I must congratulate them on their bravery, I've heard it is tough being openly gay in Russia. If they're gay for pay it is a shame. Any which way I think their manager/record company is exploiting them, surely they don't realy feel like kissing each and every time a camera is near.

Yeah I'd agree with this. Or perhaps "Hey Ya".

Yep, definitely Hey Ya. I could listen to that track for ever and not get tired of it.
Its also the only track that could move me to dancing, outside of ska/2-tone...

due to the fact that they're not 18, and that you can see their breasts in that photo, wouldn't that technically be child pornography? watch out, Dave....you'll get shut down for things like this
