New Theme

In 2004 the song "Dragostea Din Tei" by the Moldavan Pop Band O-Zone became a huge hit all across Europe. It was covered hundereds of times and some versions were realeased simultaneously to the original. Thats why lots of fans didn't even know who wrote that heavy colored pop-art track in the first place. The americans instead, didn't  recognized this song until it became famous by a youtube user who shot a video of himself trying to lip sync to that song, calling it the song by the name "Numa Numa" as he didn't know its original titel (just type in "Numa Numa" at youtube, and you'll find it for sure). In result, the song blew up in the states and also became a hit. Even Rihanna picked it up, using the hook melody in the song "Live your Life". 

So when I accidentely stumbled across this song in 2009 again, I tried to play the chords on piano, just for fun. But the simplicity of chords and melody instantly changed my view on it, as it suddenly sounded kind of classy and deep. I knew I had to make a New Age Piano Cover of it. After a year, I was finally happy with the outcome of my version. So here you go, and hear for yourself what one of the most covered Pop-Hits sounds like, when its played on Piano.

If you want to see me playing this song live, just type in "variations on dragostea din tei" on Youtube, and you'll find a video.
