Missy Elliott has scored a number of word-wide hits over the past decade, but is perhaps best known for co-produced the Christina Aguilera, Lil' Kim, Mýa and Pink cover of "Lady Marmalade" for the Moulin Rouge move, which became one of the biggest world wide selling records of 2001.

why dont you link to that great video of "RuslanaTube" on YouTube for "The Girl That Rules" instead of that boring crap "video"?
Missy is my number 1 in Hip Hop music........so well done Ruslana.........;-)
Mario Mir,
She was not the worst winner my friend. To be honest all the ltest winners, are stars in their little part of the world but did not do anything in the rest of the world. Not Dima, not Maria, not Helena, not LOrdi.... no one really. The last big Eurovision star must be as long ago as Celine Dion.... All the rest are one day winners....
I don't understand why there's so much hate towards Ruslana on this board?
She is great and definitely one of the most worthy winners of ESC.
"Wild Dances" is one of the best winners of ESC ever I think and she brought such a great spirit to the whole show.
And even if you don't like her music you can't argue that the performance wasn't anything but superb.
A superb album! So many good and great songs! I like her so much! SHE IS A TRUE DIVA!!!)))
( + Ruslana seems like really nice person 
and she has a cute accent! 
)

Well for me I just don't like listening to that style of music so much. I mean, I think she was a great winner (if not my first choice) and "wild dances" is a good song, but i've never been a fan of her music in general. In fact the only song apart from "wild dances" that I have is "heart on fire"
But I still think shes a great artist and something Ukraine can be proud of, not only for her musical achievments, political aswell. I'm just not a fan of her music, thats all!
I think there are some nice tracks on Ruslana's new album. True, there might be too much of her songs with the words "wild", "energy" or "dance 
" but hey, that's her style.
I liked her a lot in 2004, she brought life to the stage which was something rare in that year and she really is an incredibly nice person.
My favourite songs on her new album are "Wild Energy", "Heart On Fire" and "Energy Of Love"!
All the best to that lovely Ruslana!
I just can't believe what I'm reading: "she is one of the worst winners of ESC", "she should get rid of this wild style" "another ECS flop"! You people disgust me!!!
Ruslana is one of the only performers who has true energy and passion on stage and she is one of the most worthy winners of ESC! Jonny, I'm surprised you don't think much of her album because for me, it is her best yet!
Good luck Ruslana! Go, go, go wild dancers!!!!!
Alex Amos, I agree with you. Finland has been sending the same rockers, I can´t stand them anymore! Ruslana babe, good job an good luck!
She is one of the worst winners of ESC along with Tanel Padar, Riva and the Irish winners of 93 and 94.
She is totally unknown in Western Europe, while Sertab, Helena, Lordi and Dima are known by some public.
Antonio, flops don't win Eurovision, esp those who were voted by almost every country Like it or not but she will forever remain the ESC winner and such sh1t like "she shouldn't have won" is extremely stupid because people voted for her, people made their choice so it SHOULD have won 
Have some respect for people and for the artist.
Mikko, this is amazing to hear that from someone from Finland ))) what about your rockers who have the same wild style. There's nothing wrong with it. Imho such comments like yours
Her new album doesnt sound amazing to me, but it sounds like there are a few good tracks on there
I think that Ruslana changed esc, by winning she proved the theory that a big show helps alot. Imo Turkey or Germany should have won in 2004 but Ukraine were good winners
Anyway, i'm not sure how much success she will have with this album, probably very little outside of eastern europe but good luck to her
She should get rid of this wild style. It is really annoying me anymore! so childish!
I think Ruslanas' win reminds us of how important the "vision" in Eurovision has become. A fantastic stage presentation can lift an ok thing into a winning position. I don't think this will bring her any international success (outside of where she is already popular), but good luck to her.
she should have not won that year, another ESC flop, there were better songs that year ,
I bought this album digitally, and it was a big let down from what I was expecting. I head she is working with American producers and T-Pain and Missy Eliott, and expected something of a different sound from her. But the sound is in between wild dances and cheap R&B. 
The best track on the CD is "Moon of Dreams" with T-pain. And I don't mean to put down the CD more, but the English version of Wild Energy falls short. Not the lyrics really, but the sound. They changed the sound of it for some reason. I LOVED the Ukrainian version though.
