I don't know if this is satisfying for a fan who is not a hypocrite. If her work progress doesn't show a significant move in some more promising direction, I would recommend to her what Artemij Troitskij did many years ago (Podnebesnaya) - take a rich guy and have many children, if she didn't already follow his advice.
So, now there is reason to complain about forum members' plain insulting, pessimism and outrageous negativity!

I'm surprised to see you lash out like this on, what is essentially, a 26 year old girl who left her former management and is trying, with no money, to do something with her career. Can we have no fucking benefit of the doubt? It doesn't matter how many times we say that she only released those demos because the fans were demanding to hear them. Julia only recorded them as essentially practice in the studio and her English. I was in the studio with her when they played Stand Up for her and the laundry list of changes she had, that were never made, was extremely long. As I said, it's tough with a high profile client because it's no longer this person i've never met before - this is someone i've had dinner with, sat on a couch with, talked on the phone with, emailed, worked with... and it's seems so fucking easy for ya'll to say these things. For me it's a bit more personal now... and I can see how for some old fans it still is. So let's just wait... for Julia and for her new management team it's learning game. We weren't fans of some well oiled machine - we were Tatu fans.... a band from Russia. I don't know why we ever expect any sort of stability... i'd also like to state that the amount I take any of the criticisms I see on these boards is very little. I understand and relate to where it all comes from - I merely have a new perspective now.
