Numa Numa Song Origins

Posted by Hellpuppet - September 24th, 2007


Did anyone ever wonder what's the history of the Numa Numa song?

Well, I know the truth...
A few years ago, a band from Moldavia, the neighbour country of Romania, the country I live in, launched a summer hit in Romania called: "Dragostea din Tei". The lyrics went something like:
"Mai ah hee/
Mai ah hoo/
Mai ah ha/Mai ah haha/
.../
Vrei sa pleci dar nu-ma, nu-ma iei/
Nu-ma, nu-ma iei, nu-ma, nu-ma, nu-ma iei
/Chipul tau si dragostea din tei/Mi-amintesc de ochii tai."

In English:
"Mai ah hee/Mai ah hoo/
Mai ah ha/Mai ah haha/
.../
You want to leave but you won't won't take me away/
Won't won't take me away won't won't won't take me away/
Your face and the love in the tell tree/
Remind me of your eyes."

After six or seven months of being in the Romanian tops, the band went on a tour in Europe and the US. That's when the numa numa guy heard the song and made himself popular with that funny clip:)
The Ozone band split up just after a few months because one of the members stole their songs and sang them overseas without the other two knowing. Sad...

Maybe some of you already know this, maybe some of you don't belive me...I just wanted to say something about the origins of the Numa Numa Song:D
