Numa Numa Dance

LOLOL!! I love it! :rotfl: :rotfl:

The song is called "Dragostea Din Tei" by O-Zone, which is a boy band trio from Moldova (sp?) in Romania. It was a huge hit last year in Europe, especially Germany. I have it on the UK hit set called "Now That's What I Call Music Vol. 58". I played it over and over, it's such a catchy song.

I used to watch the video at dotmusic (lanuch) and I'll try to find the link if it's still on their playlist. It has the words in English.

I saw this link on another message board; it was entitled "Some blithering idiot lip-synching to a Blink-182 song"......... :chuckle Wonder where it really did come from????

Has lots of links about this. Even the original song and video. Looks like he just did it for fun and have no idea he is causing such a storm.

I saw this on the news last night . .. the big new rage on the internet.

I don't get it though. :)

Some peopel don't like it and some think it is great.

I think people liked it because first, the song is catchy. Second, watch his face expressions, they are funny and yet it matches and also sync with the song. Also you can see that he just enjoyed it and having some fun.

Here is another link where he has the translations and also he fixed the lip-sync problem toward the end. But the video quality went down.

I love it. Mainly because the song got a lot of spins on my player last year. It would be great if it caught on enough to make it a hit here, like it's been in the rest of the world. The beginning is actually yodel (sp?). Not many hits have yoddling in it.

Thanks for the video link Dan. The one on Launch isn't there anymore and when I tried to google it, I kept coming up with sites about this guy!

Marla - I have to mention though that I have watched the cult hit "Napolean Dynamite" twice and loved it. Being the odd person out rang some bells with me PLUS the dance sequence is so good because here is this nerd kid who turns out to dance well and takes a chance at looking like a fool for his friend.

You got a point that I did not think of. Another funny thing about it is the surprise - a nerding fat kid who can actually dance (upper body anyway), and did a heck of job lip-syncing. If you watch his facial and hand expressions which sync real well with the song, he evidently put some good creative thought into it. It is the unexpectedness that what I personally like.
