You can listen to the Russian version with not knowing a word of Russian and because of the emotion and energy skillfully conveyed by both the vocals and the instrumental arrangement, it is still very enjoyable.
The packaging of the group as Lesbians was probably, like it or not, a marketing necessity to introduce the Russian pop group to the US audience. I say this because while TATU are clearly talented, they still have not yet attained the musical level of say, Russian pop artist Kristina Orbakaite, (same genre of Russian pop) who is all but unknown in the US. Ultimately, people will forget the Lesbian issue, and the music will stand (or fall) on its own merits.
All in all, a good album.
