is that of his wife Ana...

and so is Radu...

MORE: this is part of an album (Mr. & Ms.) he is said to launch internationally (starting with Russia) this April, different in style and everything from his 2006 album called "Alone," which was meant for the Romanian market

Love is not a reason to cry D.

yes, they could sing...: O-zone a capella

Oriunde ai fi/Wherever you will be

Delia

P.S. as I was saying, Dan can sing D.

Radu's last name

MORE: for those who need more details on this: aside from the "i" you find in most Latin based languages, Romanian has a variation of it which has a sign that looks like the roof of a house on top instead of the normal little dot; the letter "a" also has such a variation (the "roof top" instead of the dot). To make things even more confusing, what is considered correct spelling (spelled with "i" and roof top versus "a" and "roof top") has changed -- back and forth -- for arbitrary reasons in the past. Romanians are more like the French this way (they don't just allow the language to naturally change and go with it...: there is an Academia Romana -- you can see the "roof-top-a"-spelling on that page -- like there is an Academie Francaise)
...
He says it's "Sirbu" (means nothing in Romanian). A lot of people (including me) were confused and though it must have been "Sarbu" (which means "the Serb") and may well still be the truth...ultimately... not that Radu is lying -- I'm pretty sure the name in his documents is spelled "Sirbu" but... it's not at all uncommon for mistakes to change one's name in time; actually many of the differences in spelling of words in the different Latin-based languages, for instance, were just that: mistakes that became the norm in a particular part of the world...

Delia

The video clips for his songs can be quite good!

Doi straini (Two strangers) D.

after the break...

MORE: A different performance of Dulce/Sweet (interesting comments, in English)
......
Radu seems to be the one that best continued the happy-happy-and-let-everybody-know-about-it quality of the O-zone songs...

Delia

P.S. not that he didn't try something "different" at one point: a somewhat bizarre combination disco-rap song he recorded with a Romanian DJ around the time O-zone was splitting up:Dulce (Sweet)

*too* much fun?

some people claimed they were gay... I would think, most likely not... taking the culture into consideration, nothing in their interactions made me think they would be gay (it's quite common for male friends to put their hands on each other's shoulders etc. ... now, if I saw them walk hand in hand on the street... or gaze at a guy the way Craig gazed at Charlie... I would have serious questions, but nothing in this video makes me think they are gay) D.

one of the O-zone songs was a "remake" of an existing Romanian song
