"30 Minutes" was a single from t.A.T.u.'s debut English album, "200 km/h in the Wrong Lane". It was released in 2003, and is the third single off that CD. A russian version of the song was released previous to this one, it had big attention in Russia. After this russian version, the english version of Ya Soshla S Uma was released, but with the title of All The Things She Said intead of literal translation, I've Lost My Mind.

Although the line said by Yulia ("Mama, Papa, Forgive Me") in the end of "Show Me Love" is not a part of this song, the line does appear on some versions of the music video as well as many of the song's remixes.

Music Video

A video was recorded and gained substantial airplay in Russia. In the video, Lena is seated on a carousel, kissing and groping a tall boy. There are close-ups of the boy's hands squeezing Lena's buttocks; as her skirt is removed, culminating in a scene where Lena's breast was exposed, resting against the boy's chest. This scene only appeared in the uncensored version of the video.

Yulia catches Lena kissing him and is seen at a school bathroom, solemnly plotting and unwrapping a crude time bomb. At the end of the video, the lovers, the carousel, and Yulia are blown up.

The interpretation of the video is open-ended. It is implied that Yulia's character was in a relationship with one of the lovers on the carousel, and carries out the murder-suicide as a result of either Lena or the boy being unfaithful, though it could also have been unrequited love for either one.

Ivan Shapovalov directed the video.
