Lyudi Invalidy (Cyrillic: Люди Инвалиды; translation: Disabled People) is the second Russian-language studio album by t.A.T.u., released on 21 October 2005 in Russia. The album was later released in some Eastern European countries, Germany and Mexico. The album was certified Platinum in Russia by NFPF.

Technically, the production for Люди Инвалиды began in 2004. It was during 2004 when t.A.T.u.'s then-producer Ivan Shapovalov introduced the tracks "Люди инвалиды" (stylized on the rear album cover as "ЛЮДИ ИНВАЛИДЫ"), "Ты согласна", "Ничья", and "Что не хватает" to the girls, and the songs were recorded. For instance, an early version of "Ничья" was played during the Show Me Love Tour. Demos from all four songs were also released to fans, and heard on Поднебесная. After leaving Shapovalov and then taking a hiatus, t.A.T.u. negotiated with Shapovalov and the songwriters and composers to rerecord the songs. The music was changed on all of the songs, and in some the lyrics were altered. When the album was released in 2005, it only credited Shapovalov for the song "Люди инвалиды".

Demos of "Космос", "Вся моя любовь", and "Обезьянка ноль"—as well as an a cappella version of the last—were released prior to the album's premiere; all were sung by Lena only and were recorded in both Moscow and Los Angeles with Sergio Galoyan from mid-2004 to early 2005.

Люди Инвалиды features two songs from the English release, "Loves Me Not" and "All About Us." On this album, "Loves Me Not" has different music than the version on the English album counterpart Dangerous and Moving. This is not a remix—it is the same single featuring a more electronic arrangement for the Russian market versus a more pop arrangement for the international market.

"Обезьянка ноль", supposedly Yulia's favorite tune from the album, was also included on Dangerous and Moving. Two different versions of "Что не хватает" were also issued online on YouTube exclusively.
