"Numa Numa" redirects here. For the viral video by Gary Brolsma, see Numa Numa (video).
"Dragostea Din Tei"
Song
B-side"Dragostea Din Tei" (DJ Ross radio RMX)

"Dragostea Din Tei" (pronounced [ˈdraɡoste̯a din ˈtej] listenⓘ, "Love from the lindens", official English title: Words of Love[2]),[3] also informally known as "Ma Ya Hi" and "The Numa Numa Song" (see § Lyrics), is the most successful single by the Moldovan pop group O-Zone, sung in Romanian. It shot to the number one spot on the Eurochart Hot 100, where it remained for 12 weeks between June and early September 2004.[4] It topped the single charts in Germany, France and Austria for over three months, reached three in the United Kingdom and 72 on the US Pop 100. The song became the fourth best-selling single of the 21st century in France, with 1,170,000 units sold.[5] A popular cover of the song was made by Italian-Romanian pop singer Haiducii, which also charted in many countries, especially Italy and Sweden where it topped the singles charts. The original song was made notable in the United States by the viral video of Gary Brolsma dancing to the song, calling it "Numa Numa". The song is featured on Just Dance 2017.

O-Zone version

A still image from O-Zone's music video

Background and writing

The song was written and composed by Dan Bălan, and the original version was sung by Bălan, Arsenie Todiraș, and Radu Sârbu. The single was first released in 2003 in Romania, where the group lived and produced at that time, and in the spring of 2004 in most other European countries, where it became a summer hit. In as late as 2006, the song was still in the lower reaches of some Eastern European singles charts.

O-Zone's version was the most popular across Europe, with the exception of Italy, where it was only known by discogoers.[citation needed] A cover version of the song performed by the Romanian singer Haiducii, who released the song in Europe around the same time, was more popular in Italy and Sweden (it reached #1 in the singles charts).

"Dragostea Din Tei" has also inspired a number of parody videos distributed over the Internet, most notably Gary Brolsma's popular "Numa Numa Dance" video in 2004. The "Numa Numa Dance", which first appeared on the flash site Newgrounds.com, has become so notable that it has sparked numerous parodies of the video itself in the United States over the years since 2004.[6]

Overall, the single reached number one in over 27 countries and went on to sell upwards of 8 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling singles of all time.[7]

English-language version

The American release of DiscO-Zone features an English version of the song performed by Dan Bălan and Lucas Prata. This version focuses on the "It's me, Picasso" lyric from the original to provide a theme of an artist who has lost his muse. Bălan and Prata performed the English recording of "Dragostea Din Tei" entitled Ma Ya Hi on The Today Show on February 22, 2005. Unlike the original recording, however, this version was not as successful, charting at 72 on the Billboard Charts.

Haiducii version

"Dragostea Din Tei"
Song
B-sideRemixes + "Spring"

A cover version by Haiducii, with a strong dance impact, was charted at the same time as the original version by O-Zone. Although it had a great success in many countries, including Sweden, Austria and Italy, where it topped the chart, it was less successful than O-Zone's version. Haiducii was later sued by O-Zone for copyright infringement, since she had neither obtained permission from O-Zone to record the single nor given due credit to Dan Bălan for being the original writer of the song.[citation needed]

Asia

  • In Israel, the song was translated and used as a theme song for the children's show Festigal.
  • Also in Israel, the music was used by the subgroup of Breslover Hasidim known as Na Nach, following the teachings of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov according to the tradition of Rabbi Yisroel Ber Odesser (called the Saba, or grandfather, by Na Nachs). The song in praise of the rabbi titled "Na Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman" uses in its best known version the music from the song "Dragostea Din Tei".
