[edit] Maxi Single (Hyperion Plate)
The first 1000 copies were individually numbered and signed by Lena Katina and Yulia Volkova.[1] The item was available for pre-order starting 2 April 2008. t.A.T.u stated that the first 1000 copies of Hyperion-Plate were reserved on 9 April 2008.[2] The product was first released on May 8 to a limited consumers followed by extensive release on May 20.
[edit] Music Video
There are currently two versions of the music video: a censored and an uncensored version. The censored version was released through MTV Russia in November 2007 and the uncensored was featured on the DVD of the maxi-single.
The censored video involves Lena walking through streets scantily dressed. She arrives home and is seen changing into a uniform. She then makes her way to the detention centre where, along with a firing squad, she executes a very pregnant Yulia.
The uncensored video follows the same major concept, but with additional footage, such as a party of onlookers drinking cocktails during Yulia's execution and a group of religious protesters outside the "Department of Control." The uncensored version gives a different perspective and a twist in the story. One of the most notable differences is the inclusion of partial nudity from Yulia and full nudity from Lena. And in addition to the inclusion of new scenes to the video, after Yulia throws the tray of food off the table and requests alcohol, the censored version features wine but the uncensored version features what appears to be a bottle of Patron. In several channels in Latin America an edited version of the uncensored version was shown in which the nudity was censored out. It was called "Beliy Plaschik (Edit)", though the song for the uncensored cut is called "Beliy Plaschik (No Mercy Remix)".
